Future Electronics has extended its worldwide distribution agreement with Cypress Semiconductor to include the IoT product lines recently acquired from Broadcom.

Under the agreement, Future will stock Cypress’ wireless portfolio, which includes certified and production ready modules and silicon, as well as software for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth solutions.

“Future is proud to carry such a dynamic range of IoT products which, doubled with our engineering expertise, makes Future unrivalled for providing high quality products and support for our consumers to take their products from start to finish,” said Jill Thomas, Future’s technical marketing director, EMEA.
