Firm creates new Web search tool
Fairchild Semiconductor, has created a search mechanism that allows customers around the world and other interested individuals to easily find what they are looking for on the company’s website.
Dubbed Smart Search, the mechanism is a web-based search engine that simultaneously searches multiple integrated databases on Fairchild’s website.
Easy access
This provides design engineers easy access to new products, cross reference data, technical literature, obsolete products, application notes and other vital information.
“Other search mechanisms on the market today require keywords to be individually entered into various cross-reference and product information databases. Unlike this 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 parametrics, new product announcements and application-related products,” Fairchild said in a statement.
“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. Providing the right navigational tools to make our customers’ jobs easier is imperative to Fairchild,” Fairchild senior manager for marketing technology Rick Whitcomb said.
Session-specific
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 creates an easy way for customers to save, distribute and analyze the results of individual BOMs.
Smart Search is part of Fairchild’s Global Power Resource, a worldwide network of design labs, systems application experts, online design tools, evaluation boards and joint research and development laboratories. (JBN)
