SiliconExpert Integration brings SiliconExpert data to your parts. It enriches parts with valuable information like live YTEOL, lifecycle, and compliance data in Altium 365 and Altium Designer to help you make better-informed decisions.

SiliconExpert data is available in:

  • Altium 365: Components, BOM Portal, Project > BOM
  • Altium Designer: Manufacturer Part Search Panel, Components Panel, ActiveBOM

Best Practices for SiliconExpert Integration

  • Every unique MPN for which you request full SE data counts as one query.
  • Once queried you have access to live data for that MPN until the expiration date.
  • 3 free parameters that you get for every part without using a query are RoHS Status, Lifecycle, and YTEOL.
