Diodes Incorporated (Zetex heritage) distributor & excess inventory

About Diodes Incorporated

Diodes Incorporated (NASDAQ: DIOD) is a Plano, Texas-based standard-products semiconductor supplier founded in 1959 in New York City by Bernard Fried and later moved to Texas. With roughly 7,500 employees and approximately $1.9 billion in annual revenue, Diodes operates wafer fabs, assembly, and test sites across the United States, United Kingdom, Belgium, China, and Taiwan. The company has grown almost entirely through acquisition — each merger folding a new discipline into the standard-products line card: Anachip (2006, Taiwanese analog and mixed-signal), Zetex Semiconductors (2008, the ex-Ferranti UK bipolar and discrete house that added the SuperSOT SOT-23 range, FMMT and ZTX small-signal transistors, and high-current bipolars), BCD Semiconductor Manufacturing (2013, Shanghai power management and analog SOC, adding a proprietary BCD process fab), Pericom Semiconductor (2015, timing, connectivity, and PCIe switches — crystal oscillators, USB switches, and PCIe redrivers), the Texas Instruments Greenock 8-inch wafer fab (2019, UK), Lite-On Semiconductor (2020, bridge rectifiers, DC/AC discretes, ESD/TVS, LEDs, and the SO-8 small-signal line), and the onsemi Oudenaarde 8-inch fab in Belgium (2022, analog and discrete production). The current portfolio is broad: discretes (small-signal and switching diodes, Schottky rectifiers, TVS and ESD arrays, bipolar transistors, MOSFETs), standard linear (op-amps, comparators, references), power management (LDOs, DC-DC buck and boost, LED drivers), timing (Pericom crystals, oscillators, PLLs), connectivity (USB switches, PCIe redrivers and switches), and standard logic (74LVC, 74HC).

Hybrid Electronics has quoted Diodes Incorporated — and every legacy brand rolled into it — since we opened our doors in 1995. We support customers on obsolete Zetex ZTX/FMMT SuperSOT bipolars for locked-BOM analog and RF designs, legacy Pericom PI7C PCIe redrivers and PT7C RTC for fielded telecom and industrial platforms, BCD-heritage power-management ICs (AP-series LDOs, AP63xxx buck) for consumer and industrial power stages, Anachip pre-2006 analog for long-tail Taiwanese OEM builds, Lite-On bridge rectifiers and ESD arrays for legacy AC/DC and interface designs, and current-production AL-series LED drivers, PI3USB switches, 74LVC1G tiny logic, and BAV99/BAS40/1N4148W jellybean discretes where authorized-channel lead times are running long. When Diodes or a franchised distributor shows zero stock, we source from OEM excess, contract-manufacturer surplus, and traceable secondary channels — the live page slug remains zetex-diodes-inc because Zetex heritage still drives so much of the demand we see on this brand.

Diodes Incorporated quote & sourcing FAQ

What Diodes Incorporated products does Hybrid Electronics quote most often?

Small-signal switching diodes (1N4148W, BAV99, BAS40, BAT54C) and 1N4001–1N4007 rectifiers are our highest-volume jellybean lines. AP2112 and AP7361 LDOs, AP63xxx buck converters, and AL-series LED drivers are steady mid-volume BCD-heritage sourcing. Pericom PI3USB Type-C mux switches, PI7C9X PCIe redrivers, and PT7C RTC parts are frequent interface/timing quotes. Zetex-heritage ZTX/FMMT SuperSOT bipolars and MMBZ Zeners are our most-quoted legacy-brand Diodes categories.

Do you handle legacy Zetex, Pericom, BCD, Anachip, and Lite-On parts?

Yes — every legacy brand rolled into Diodes Incorporated is core to what we do. Diodes acquired Anachip in 2006, Zetex Semiconductors in 2008 (the UK ex-Ferranti bipolar house that added SuperSOT/SOT-23 range, ZTX E-line, and FMMT high-current bipolars), BCD Semiconductor Manufacturing in 2013 (Shanghai power management and the BCD-process fab), Pericom Semiconductor in 2015 (timing, USB switches, PCIe redrivers), the TI Greenock 8-inch fab in 2019, Lite-On Semiconductor in 2020 (bridge rectifiers, ESD/TVS, LEDs, SO-8 discretes), and the onsemi Oudenaarde 8-inch fab in Belgium in 2022. For designs locked to those original brand markings we source factory-sealed original inventory from OEM excess and traceable secondary channels — not repackaged or remarked parts.

Why is the URL slug zetex-diodes-inc instead of diodes-incorporated?

Because Zetex Semiconductors heritage still drives so much of what customers ask us about on this brand — ZTX749, ZTX951, FMMT493, FMMT591, and the SuperSOT SOT-23 bipolar range came out of Zetex's UK (ex-Ferranti) Chadderton operation and remain on locked BOMs today. The Zetex line was folded into Diodes Incorporated in 2008 but the historical URL under the letter Z already ranks for the parts our customers are searching for, so we preserved the slug rather than break inbound links and rankings. Both Diodes Incorporated and Zetex presentations are quoted the same way.

Are your legacy Diodes / Zetex / Pericom parts factory sealed and traceable?

Yes when available — most of our OEM-excess and CEM-surplus Diodes, Zetex, Pericom, BCD, Anachip, and Lite-On stock is factory sealed with original date codes, moisture-barrier bags, and full traceability documentation. For downgraded stock we disclose condition (open box, tested-pull, refurbished) on the quote. Customers needing MSL data, COO, DPAS-rated delivery, AEC-Q100/Q101 grade confirmation, or PPAP-level documentation should note that on the RFQ.

How fast is your Diodes Incorporated quote turnaround?

Same day for parts in stock — typically within 2 hours during business hours (9am–6pm ET). Sourced quotes on out-of-stock or allocated parts (AP63xxx automotive buck, PI7C9X Gen3/Gen4 PCIe redrivers, AL9100Q AEC-Q100 LED drivers, Zetex FMMT SuperSOT bipolars) return within 24–48 hours with an availability window. Email sales@hybridelectronics.com or call (407) 542-3995 to open an RFQ.

Is Hybrid Electronics an authorized Diodes Incorporated distributor?

No — we're an independent distributor and excess-inventory buyer sourcing from OEM excess, CEM surplus, and traceable secondary channels since 1995. For factory-warranted current-production orders on Diodes, Zetex, Pericom, BCD, Anachip, or Lite-On parts, work with a Diodes Incorporated-franchised distributor. For obsolete, allocated, hard-to-find, or urgent line-down parts where authorized channels show zero stock or 40+ week lead times, Hybrid Electronics is a proven independent source.
