NXP launches iPhone app

15 September 2010 News

NXP Semiconductors has introduced the NXP iPhone application, allowing easy and quick access to NXP products and support. This free application allows engineers to search, buy and share more than 10 000 product parts from NXP’s high-performance mixed signal and standard products portfolio anytime, anywhere on their Apple iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.

Engineers can browse and search the database of NXP products by product functions and part numbers to get product specifications. Product datasheets, application and packaging information are also available at the click of a finger tip. Customers can also order product parts using this application. By placing products directly into a shopping cart, they will be directed to online stores of NXP’s worldwide distribution partners to complete the transaction within minutes.

Engineers are able to share product specifications by e-mail or social media channels like Facebook or Twitter. A ‘My Favourite’ function allows engineers to keep track of product types that they are interested in. ‘About NXP’ provides an overview of NXP’s worldwide sales offices, distribution networks (with map) and access to an online technical support form.

This free application works with the following devices: iPhone (2G and higher, including iPhone 4), iPad and iPod Touch.
