Sensirion and Digi-Key Electronics announce worldwide distribution agreement

24 March 2016
Sensirion, the world’s leading manufacturer of smart sensors and sensor solutions, has announced a global sales agreement with Digi-Key Electronics, the industry leader in electronic component selection, availability and delivery.

Sensirion AG and Digi-Key are pleased to announce a worldwide distribution agreement. Digi-Key is now franchised to sell the wide range of sensors developed with Sensirion’s patented CMOSens® Technology, which enables the sensor component to be combined with the signal processing circuitry on a tiny CMOS silicon chip. The resulting sensor chips enable precise and reliable sensing of relative humidity, temperature, or mass flow, attaining the highest performance combined with cost effectiveness.  Sensirion’s many years of experience, hard-won expertise and strong innovative drive have made it the pioneer in sensors.

Sensirion products available from Digi-Key Electronics include Sensrion’s SHTxx and STSxx digital relative humidity and temperature sensors, LG01 flow switch and bubble detectors for liquids, SDPx series of high-performance differential pressure sensors and SFMx series of gas flow meters.  All Sensirion product families have a variety of plug and play evaluation kits that support data logging capabilities.

„We are very excited to partner globally with Digi-Key to leverage their exceptional reputation with the engineering community and strong marketing presence.  Digi-Key will provide Sensirion customers more options for service and support from design, to prototype and into production.  Digi-Key is an integral part of Sensirion growth strategy and we look forward to strengthening the partnership and growing our mutual sales.” says David Kenneth, General Manager, North America, Sensirion.
