Fairchild launches new "Smart Search" facility

- Ehda Dagooc -
Fairchild Semiconductor has created a search engine aptly called the "Smart Search" to enable customers to access specific topics on the company's website.

Fairchild, a global semiconductor company recently introduced the Smart Search, which is a web-based search engine that simultaneously searches multiple integrated databases on Fairchild's website www.fairchildsemi.com, providing design engineers easy access to new products, cross reference data, technical literature, obsolete products, application notes and other vital information.

The search mechanisms on the market today require keywords to be individually entered into various cross-reference and product information databases.

Unlike the time-consuming, hit-and-miss process, Smart Search allows customers and other interested individuals to type keywords into one comprehensive search tool for fast, streamlined results including the top five parametric, new product announcements and application-related products.

"Smart Search is a customer-centric search engine, designed to provide instant access to key information, allowing design engineers to spend less time searching for information on products and more time designing," said Rick Whitcomb, senior manager, Marketing Technology.

Providing the right navigational tools to make our customers' jobs easier is imperative to Fairchild, he added.

Fairchild's Smart Search also provides a session-specific Bill of Material (BOM) functionality, allowing visitors to find and add products to a list that can be easily exported into a spreadsheet format and e-mailed. This functionality creates an easy way for customers to save, distribute and analyze the results of individual Bill of Materials.

Smart Search is part of Fairchild's Global Power Resource, worldwide network of design labs, systems application experts, online design tools, evaluation boards and joint research and development labs.

Fairchild is The Power Franchise with the power expertise and design services to provide customers with solutions to optimize performance, streamline their power system designs and reduce time-to-market.

The company's global design centers are located in the United States, Germany, Taiwan, Korea and several locations in China, with the company planning to open six additional centers worldwide in 2005. Fairchild's assembly plant in the Philippines is located in Mactan Economic Zone (MEZ-1).
