Passive Components > BCcomponents
BCcomponents (Beyschlag Centralab components) emerged from Philips Electronics Components division in January 1999, becoming a leading manufacturer of passive electronic components. Building on the tradition of excellence from Beyschlag, Philips, and Centralab, BCcomponents continually innovated and improved products in close collaboration with customers. This commitment to excellence led to the development of industry-standard products such as SMD Mini-MELF resistors (branded Vishay Beyschlag) and a range of aluminum capacitors with industry-leading temperature capabilities. BCcomponents earned the status of a preferred supplier to many of the world’s top electronics companies. BCcomponents was originally known as Beyschlag and has a long history in the electronics industry. The Beyschlag name stands for thin film technology, continuous innovation, excellence in service and logistics, and customer-oriented solutions.
Vishay acquired BCcomponents in December 2002. The former BCcomponents product portfolio is now divided into Vishay Beyschlag and Vishay BCcomponents. Products branded Vishay Beyschlag include thin film and carbon film MELF resistors, thin film and cermet film chip resistors, and leaded metal film and carbon film resistors. The latest developments include thin film chip arrays, and thin and thick film chip fuses. Products branded Vishay BCcomponents include leaded metal film and metal glaze resistors, non-linear and variable components, and ceramic, aluminum, and film capacitors.
BCcomponents was one of the world’s largest manufacturers of passive components, including thermistors, MOV & MLV varistors, capacitors, resistors, MLCC, and trimpots. With over 70 years of experience in supplying high-quality, reliable products to all major industries, BCcomponents has developed an extensive portfolio that enables customers to streamline their supply sources.
