Global electronic components distributor Digi-Key Corporation, recognized by design engineers as having the industry’s largest selection of electronic components available for immediate shipment, today announced the signing of a global distribution agreement with VersaLogic Corporation, a leading manufacturer of embedded computers.
“The embedded industry continues to evolve with total cost of ownership and extended product life at the forefront. We wanted to offer our customers a premium line of embedded computers that would address this,” said Mark Zack, Vice President of Global Semiconductor Product at Digi-Key Corporation. "VersaLogic’s high-quality embedded products provide exceptional value to our expansive product offering and we are pleased to partner with them.”
VersaLogic Corporation provides rugged industrial computers to OEMs for embedded control and industrial control applications. Their COM, EBX™, EPIC™, EPU™, PC/104™, SUMIT™, and SPX™ product platforms provide robust, field-reliable products for use in a variety of market applications.

We were also seeking a distributor who would be reliable for our customers and easy to work with,” said Bruce McKinnon, Chief Operating Officer of VersaLogic Corp. “We knew Digi-Key was at the pinnacle of the industry online, but when we discovered the alignment in core values and how easy it would be to work with them, the choice was clear.”
