October 2023--September marked a year since SMART launched SMARTsemi. From the onset, SMART's goal has been to simplify the process of finding, qualifying, and procuring memory components for long-life embedded applications. Since then, SMART has been enhancing the functionality of SMART's digital platform to provide additional tools and information, expanding SMART's product lineup and range of products, and broadening SMART's network of distributors and sales reps. 


Twenty years in the making

SMARTsemi may be a relatively new online source, but SMART successfully leveraged decades of experience in the semiconductor memory market behind the scenes. As a line of business of SMART Modular Technologies, Inc., SMARTsemi taps into SMART’s global production, engineering, and logistics centers. For over 20 years, SMART has manufactured and delivered millions of memory components annually for embedded medical, robotics, communications, automotive, industrial, defense, and home entertainment applications and standard, ruggedized, and custom memory and storage solutions in high-growth markets. SMARTsemi builds on all that expertise to deliver a seamless sourcing experience for SMART's customers. SMART's digital platform on smartsemi.com is designed to minimize the effort to search, select, and source products from SMART's authorized stocking distributors or directly from us.


Growing together
SMARTsemi was built to deliver quality products with unique processing and services. SMART's product catalog initially focused on industrial-grade MLC eMMC and DRAM for long-life applications. Today – one year later – SMART vastly expanded its DRAM and FLASH product lines with new components, like SD cards and microSD cards, densities, and operating ranges, including automotive class 2 and commercial grade, to suit the needs of SMART's customers’ applications.

SMART provides the mainstream as well as the products that are hard to find. Sourcing from SMARTsemi is like having a partner at your side, whether at the launch of a new product, ramping up through volume, or ensuring continuity of supply until the end. In the past six months, we also expanded SMART's North American network of stocking distributors and sales reps with partners in Europe and Asia. SMART is now shipping worldwide thanks to SMART's network of trusted regional distributors.


A trusted supplier for long-life applications

The semiconductor industry has been going through the motions in the past few years. SMARTsemi was launched when the market was slowly recovering from the global chip shortage. The memory chip market is still sorting itself out: Customer inventory levels have been depleting while demand is increasing, and supplier production levels and capacity investments have been cut back. When designing long-life applications, engineers and procurement specialists have to think long-term. They need to ensure the supply of all the embedded components is stable for the period ahead when demand outstrips supply and prices are on the rise, something that’s forecast to happen throughout 2024. Thanks to SMART's long-term relationships and supply agreements with Tier-1 manufacturers, SMART is in a solid position to be a reliable supply chain partner to SMART's customers. 


SMART listened to SMART's customers and the market to optimize and grow the SMARTsemi product offering, distributor and sales rep network, and SMART's digital platform. SMART is very thankful to all SMART's partners and customers for the past twelve months and looks forward to what lies ahead!
