We would like to thank all our clients, readers, supporters, sponsors and partners for cooperation in the past year and wish you successful entry into the new year 2017. Our aim is to provide leading support to passive components industry and thus some EPCI website wish present is ready to be opened with the New Year greetings.
2016 Summary

Your wish Present
The No.1 wishlist feedback to EPCI website has been to prepare a regular news summary to your email that would make sure that you won’t miss anything important at your point of interest without need for regular check of the EPCI website. It took some time to select the best tool and set up its system but we believe it worth the effort and it will bring the right value to you. Users can currently choose between 8 different types of selected newsletters per components or applications on monthly based and 1 weekly overall summary newsletter.
Weekly based:
- overall weekly summary newsletter (issued on Sat morning for the previous week)
Monthly based (issued 2nd day of the month morning for the previous month):

This provides spam-suppression operation without the need of unpopular captcha (especially for colour blind or weak eye people).
