Embedded components are pieces of intelligent reusable software or hardware that are built by experts in their field for reuse by manufacturers of embedded devices. There are many benefits to finding and using the most suitable embedded components such as lower development cost, improved time to market, more end user feature requests bundled per new release, improved competitve strategies, and more effective use of your engineering talent. This site was the first web portal to integrate video and social networking as part of its menu of business development, sales, marketing, research, and application engineering services to all companies involved with the selling, buying, engineering, research, and enabling component reuse in the embedded systems industry.

The services and products offered on this website are designed to improve your company's ability to integrate effictively with other companies in the embedded systems supply chain from supplier of embedded components and their related tools, to original equipment manufacturers (OEM) of embedded devices, from end users, to component enablers such as researchers, electronics manufacturing services (EMS), resellers, media outlets, and government agencies. We call this integration of business and technical services for your company and between your company and the rest of the embedded systems supply chain: cycles of efficiency™.
