20 | Versatility and Diversity
"Technology companies
in niche markets often
need specialized
sensor-makers for their
products, especially
since volume is a
determining factor to
secure a particular
sensor design."

By using a versatile sensor, designers can future-proof their designs, as the
same sensors may be usable in future generations of the same product or in new
products. By choosing a sensor that is versatile and flexible by nature, designers
will save themselves time and money by circumventing the sensor evaluation and
selection process for future designs.
Still, it is not always the case that the perfect sensor for an application exists on the
market. For this reason, it is prudent to work with sensor manufacturers that have
expertise in creating custom solutions for engineers' applications.
Vishay supports designers by:
• Offering a broad and diverse portfolio of sensor solutions, making it easy for an
engineer to choose the right sensor for an application.
• Providing well-balanced, versatile sensors that can suit multiple use cases and
applications.
• Working directly with customers to create custom sensor solutions for specific
use cases.
