today announced a partnership
with BTC Electronic Components,

meet its customers’
needs by offering a venue
for shorter lead times
and competitive pricing
on smaller volumes,”
states Vadim Radunsky,

partners also provide
the customer base with
the option to hold inventories
when program volumes are
unpredictable.”
In addition to order
fulfillment and inventory
management, BTC offers
a unique approach to the
distribution model by
offering solutions based
sales and engineering
support targeted at the
design stage of program
development. BTC provides
100% of the value-added
products and services
for the Hypertronics line
and is Hypertronics’
only distributor with
a computer-guided tin
dipping process. In addition
to making highly engineered
