All your BOM, at once
Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.
Hear about problems before they hit production
Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.
Qualified replacements in minutes, not days
Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.
Frequently asked questions
No. The VIITOR SEMICONDUCTOR CO., LTD SMBJ18A is marked not-recommended-for-new-designs (NRND): it is still supplied for existing production but the manufacturer discourages new sockets. The qualified alternatives here are better long-term choices for a new design.
The closest qualified second sources for the VIITOR SEMICONDUCTOR CO., LTD SMBJ18A are the SMBJ18A (Bourns Inc.) and the SMBJ18A (Littelfuse Inc.), out of 5 matched alternatives in total. Each is compared against the original on fit, form and function in the table above.
Not always. The alternatives to the SMBJ18A are matched on function but can differ in package, pinout or a key parameter, so review the fit/form/function notes in the table and the datasheet before designing one in.
