As an authorized distributor of display products from JDI, Edge is your trusted resource for EOL information and updates.

We have received some information regarding an EOL announcement as well as a factory closure announcement. Replacement part numbers for the EOL displays have not yet been announced, but more to come on that soon. Sample availability will also be announced soon.

The latest solid state drive (SSD) releases from Micron - the 6500 ION and the XTR - are both high-performance and high-efficiency NVMe SSDs.

Combining the two enables data centers to reliably scale their storage, control their operating costs, and improve their environmental sustainability.

Micron recently announced that the Micron 2450 NVMe SSD will be going end-of-life (EOL), and will be replaced by the upcoming Micron 2550 NVMe SSD.

Will we see you at Display Week 2023?

Display Week is the premier event of the display industry, where professionals gather to discuss industry trends, network with each other, and view demos of new and innovative display products. Edge Electronics will be exhibiting once again at this year's event, which will be held in Los Angeles from May 23rd to 25th.

Edge's LCD Solutions Program is largely built around supporting customers in industries such as medical and military with industrial LCDs. There may not be a standard definition for an industrial LCD, but we're going to try to explain how we define them.

This post will shed some light on how we define an industrial LCD, what to consider before implementing one into your design, and the benefits of using an industrial LCD in your project or application.

Micron recently announced that the new 9400 NVMe SSD is in production as of the beginning of 2023. This drive will serve as the replacement to the previous 9300 series that is EOL (end of life) as of 2022.

Micron recently announced that the 5300 SATA SSD is going EOL (End of Life) soon. First launched in 2019, Micron's 10th generation data center SATA SSD has been on the market for 3 years and it is now time to begin the EOL process. This drive is being replaced by the Micron 5400 SATA SSD, an advanced SATA SSD that is also the world's first with 176-layer NAND.

After 2 years of virtual exhibitions due to the pandemic, Display Week finally returned in person this year!

Professionals throughout the display industry met in San Jose from May 10-12 for many opportunities of networking with industry-leading manufacturers and suppliers, as well as exhibitions of display product demos and solutions.

Edge is excited to report that Display Week 2022 was a HUGE success! We were thrilled to be back in person to exhibit our product and solution demos with prospective customers.

Although this year's show was considerably smaller than in years past, we saw tremendous interest in our display solutions, as usual.

Edge's LCD Solutions Program provides customers with the perfect array of products to build a custom or off-the-shelf display solution that works perfectly in their specific application. The solutions start with a careful selection of the display and the combination of the most relevant features and accessories.

CNBC recently published an article titled "China’s lockdowns could trigger a logistics snarl that may ‘dwarf’ 2020 and 2021". While we are hopeful that is not quite the case, it is important for everyone in the electronics industry to pay attention to.
