Octopart is entering a new era of component discovery.

Millions of engineers currently count on Octopart to help find the right parts for their products, accessing component data, datasheets, and CAD models along the way. Their behavior and feedback have shaped our latest updates, helping make part research faster and more efficient.  

Search Built for Engineers

With enhanced descriptive search, Octopart now understands how engineers naturally describe components.

For example, you can search for something like “32b 128kB 16MHz MCU,” and Octopart will interpret the category and specifications.
