DigiKey has introduced an online tool that allows engineers and system designers to configure custom power-supply units.
The company said the move will shorten design timelines and simplify procurement. DigiKey is a major U.S.-based distributor of electronic components and automation products.
About DigiKey’s new online configuration tool
The web-based configurator lets users define key requirements such as output count, voltage and current. It then generates a tailored design that can be assembled and shipped within days. That replaces a process that often requires multiple rounds of back-and-forth review with suppliers.
“This tool allows our customers to configure their own power supply independently,” said Heather Fulara, DigiKey’s senior director of interconnect and electromechanical. “It reduces the time it takes to acquire a configured unit, which supports more efficient workflows.”
The initial products supported on the platform are Vox Power’s NEVO+ and VCCM series. Marco Prinsloo, co-owner of Vox Power, said the company joined the tool to give buyers a more direct path to configurable units.
“We trust DigiKey’s expertise in making our customers’ designs come together through its online design and customization options,” he said.
DigiKey said it plans to add more suppliers and product families to the configurator over time.
