[NAME]  * | Vishay has noted some Mosfets were affected.  The March 11 2011 Earthquake and subsequent events in Japan have caused some materials shortages in the supply chain. In most cases this has been transparent with our policy of dual sourcing, however we have identified a shortage in a key Epoxy Material used in the assembly of a limited set of [NAME] products. In order to keep continuity of supply Vishay plans to transfer production to an existing alternate set of materials on these specific part types until the supply of this key [NAME] can resume. The list of parts that is affected is attached along with the new part type for the alternate set of materials, in most cases both sets of materials have been previously approved and supplied to our customers. In order to keep receiving product the backlog needs to be transferred to the alternate part number. We are expecting this action to potentially last for some time until normal production can resume, we are monitoring the supply and will provide updates as the situation improves.  [NAME] is in contact with their supply chain and once they are informed, they will advise details.[NAME] has not yet been informed of any impact to its suppliers’ factories.
