A PLC, a drive, or a control board designed years ago is still in production today — and still under service contracts for years to come. Its components don't share that patience. Semiconductor manufacturers discontinue parts on their own schedule, franchised distributors drop EOL parts from the line card the day the notice lands, and a missed last-time-buy turns one logic IC into a redesign-and-requalification project nobody budgeted for.

Nikivya Semiconductor helps keep long-lifecycle industrial products in production by searching for the end-of-life parts the franchised channel no longer lists.

What we do for industrial automation procurement teams

Obsolete & EOL Sourcing

Discontinued logic ICs, drivers, interface chips — parts your franchised channel dropped years ago. See how obsolete component sourcing works.

ICs & Connectors for Control Boards

The parts that stall industrial builds: integrated circuits, industrial connectors, interface and driver components.

BOM Gap-Fill

Send the full BOM or just the blocked line items. We focus on the difficult parts and usually quote within a working day. See how BOM fulfillment works.

One GST Invoice, Imports Handled

Customs, duties and documentation managed end to end — see import handling. Your accounts team sees one Indian GST invoice with a full audit paper trail.

How it works

1

Send the part numbers

Excel, CSV, PDF — by email, WhatsApp, or the quote form. Include the manufacturer and package if you have them; for obsolete parts, every detail narrows the search.

2

A quote, usually within a working day

Part number, manufacturer, quantity, unit price, lead time. Where the exact part can't be found, we propose alternatives for your engineers to evaluate.

3

We source and photo-check on request

Sourcing through agents, brokers and distributor networks in Shenzhen and Hong Kong. On request, labels, date codes and packaging are photo-checked before dispatch.

4

Delivered on one GST invoice

Customs cleared, duties paid, documents in order. Parts arrive with a GST invoice, the import paper trail, and manufacturer traceability where available.

Why redesign is the wrong answer to an EOL notice

When a part goes EOL, the textbook options are a last-time-buy or a redesign. The last-time-buy window is often already closed by the time the notice reaches procurement. The redesign means engineering hours, a board respin, and requalification with every customer running your equipment — all to replace one component that still exists in warehouses around the world.

The third option is finding that component. We search our network of agents, brokers and distributors in Shenzhen and Hong Kong, built for exactly this, across the makers on our line card. Alongside the hard-to-find work, we quote the everyday passives your production consumes anyway, such as MLCC capacitors and thick-film resistors.

Keep your franchised distributors for the active parts. Use us when the line card says "discontinued" and your service contract says "ten more years."

Frequently asked questions

Can you find parts that are officially discontinued?

That's a core service. We source EOL and obsolete parts through agents, brokers and distributor networks in Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Send the part number — we'll tell you what's findable, at what price, and in what time.

How do you check the parts you supply?

On request, we photo-check labels, date codes and packaging before dispatch, and we pass on manufacturer traceability where available. Every shipment comes with a GST invoice and the complete import paper trail. We do not claim lab testing we don't do.

What lead times should we plan for?

Lead time is confirmed on each quote, transit included. Most orders fly by air courier; large consignments can go by air cargo.

Can you work against our vendor-onboarding process?

Yes. We provide GST invoices, the complete import paper trail, and company credentials — MSME certificate, IEC AAJCN3307P, GST 06AAJCN3307P1Z5, active AD Code — for your supplier registration.

An EOL notice threatening a product you still ship?

Send the part number before you budget the redesign. Pricing, availability and lead time fast, usually within a working day. No commitment, no minimums.
