Explore Our Comprehensive Component Tools & Resources

Navigating a website for technical components can be daunting, especially for busy engineers needing specific parts and configurations. To make component searches more efficient, we updated the MCC website with advanced parametric search features, including: 

• Advanced filtering options allow for precise searches based on parameters such as package configuration, forward voltage, leakage current, and junction temperature.
• Customizable searches cater specifically to automotive requirements, including voltage ranges and forward current preferences.
• Users can refine results by selecting active and preferred components, focusing on performance metrics that are most relevant to their needs.
• Efficient export to Excel facilitates further analysis or inventory management.
• A powerful cross-reference tool enables quick identification of equivalents for competitor parts.
• Shortcuts to ECAD files, SPICE models, inventory, technical documentation, datasheets, compliance, certifications, and more enhance user accessibility.

The video below walks you through the many engineer-friendly features and functions of the revamped MCC site.

Maximizing the Benefits of Our Updated Parametric and Product Features

With enhanced usability, it’s now simpler than ever to locate the exact components you need. This overview will guide you on how to effectively use our revamped parametric and product features, ensuring you can make the most of the improvements we've made to streamline your search and selection process.

Intuitive Component Categories [timestamp 0:12]

• Start by choosing the product category from the top navigation, then selecting the type of product you are interested in
• Once you click on a specific type of product, you’ll be taken to the parametric results page, where you can customize your search

Powerful Parametric Search [timestamp 0:45]

• Filter components based on their parameters and status (starred products are labeled “preferred” because they use the latest technology and optimal efficiency)
• Customize your search by automotive requirements, voltage ranges, forward current, forward voltage, leak current, junction temperature, and other parameters

Customized Data Exporting [timestamp 2:20]

• Simplify your component research by customizing which parameters you’d like to see in the columns (others will be hidden)
• Export your filtered list to an Excel file for easy reference of only the info you need

Component & Ordering Information [timestamp 2:58]

• On search results, hover over the component number for fast access to datasheets, inventory levels, ECAD files, SPICE models, purchase options, and more
• Find quick links to packaging, reliability reports, environmental compliance, certifications, and other essential information

Robust Cross-Reference Tool [timestamp 6:29]

• Streamline your search for MCC equivalents using competitor part numbers
• Skip digging through datasheets — use the search feature to enter a competitor’s part number and effortlessly find replacements 
• Quickly determine which level of cross-referencing each component falls into, as noted on the results page:
  • Level 1: Direct or drop-in replacement (no PCB modification)
  • Level 2: Same package, slightly different electrical parameters (no PCB modification)
  • Level 3: Similar electrical parameters, different package (requires PCB modification)

Easy Access to MCC Support [timestamp 8:37]

• Utilize our MCC support bot for quick assistance  
• Use various support channels, including direct contact options

Application-Specific Recommendations [timestamp 8:51]
