Bourns Announces Availability of Web-Based Technical Training

Riverside, Calif., November 11, 2009 Bourns, Inc., a leading manufacturer and supplier of electronic components, today announced that the company has developed a series of online technical training modules and tools that are available on its website, www.bourns.com. The web-based tutorials provide in-depth technical information on Bourns® products, information to help design engineers select the right product or solution for their specific application and relevant standards specifications. The first training modules offer detailed data on circuit protection, resistive products and sensors and controls technology solutions.

“One of the aspects that separates Bourns from its competitors is the company’s strong technical knowledge and applications expertise. This new series of training modules is an excellent way for us to share our experience with design engineers,” said Dennis Lause, senior vice president of worldwide sales at Bourns, Inc. “Designs are more complex than ever and engineers are continually asked to do more with less. We created these self-paced online tools to help designers better understand the solutions available to them and to select the appropriate product for their needs. The tutorials also help design engineers maximize the value of integrating a Bourns solution, if they choose to do so.”

Bourns plans to expand its series of technical tutorials online to include new application areas and products. To view the online tutorials available now, go to /resources/training.
