Nemco Electronics

Nemco-logo Nemco Electronics Corporation was founded in New York in 1975 with a charter to become a world class supplier of tantalum capacitors. By focusing on one dielectric type, Nemco would become a leader in the tantalum industry as well as a trusted and respected partner to its customers. Nemco relocated to Northern California in 1979 to better serve the increase in demand from Silicon Valley.

Over the years Nemco's product line up has evolved to meet the changing performance and form factor needs of the electronics manufacturing sector. From the radial leaded components of the 70's to the sub-miniature and ultra-low ESR surface mount parts of the 90's to the new polymer tantalums used in modern designs; Nemco has always had an eye to what's next.

Today, Nemco operates as an independent division of Suntsu Nexsun, and remains committed to pushing the limits of tantalum.
