National Semiconductor Story

Our story began in early 2019.

The transistor, undoubtedly the most important invention of the 20th century, transformed the world of electronics and accelerated our entry into the digital age.

It was sad to see that transistors are now sold with underwear and diapers in major web portals in the US and China.

We want to bring back the pride of Transistors and to serve the demand for small quantities and possibly the lowest cost from the biggest source of manufacturers in China.

Folklore
Our logo is inspired by William Shockley who invented bipolar junction transistor - featuring the two junctions.

We name the company National Semiconductor and the company with the same name based in Silicon Valley was a major supplier of transistors and diodes in the ‘80s.
