NXP Semiconductors has launched its new NXP Android application, allowing engineers to search, buy and share information on over 10,000 products from NXP’s High Performance Mixed Signal and Standard Products portfolio.
With the free app, engineers can browse and search NXP’s product database by product function, application area and part numbers to get product specifications, product datasheets, application notes and packaging information. The app connects customers to NXP’s global distribution partners to complete purchases within minutes.
Engineers are also able to share product information with peers via email or social media channels like Facebook or Twitter. Additionally, the “My Favorite” function allows engineers to keep track of products they are interested in for future reference.
Mike Noonen, NXP’s executive VP of Global Sales and Marketing, comments: “The industry’s first semiconductor Android application is a major step for today’s mobile engineer who historically had limited access options, but can now quickly make selections and purchase without having to be confined to their computers.”
The app runs on all Android smart phones and tablets supported by Android 1.6, 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3.
