Flip Electronics Unifies Manufacturing Operations Under New Flip Manufacturing Services Brand
July 22, 2025 | PRNewswireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Flip Electronics, an authorized distributor of obsolete semiconductors and electronic components, announced that it is rebranding its subsidiary, Resurgent Manufacturing Services, to Flip Electronics Manufacturing Services (FMS).
In January 2023, Flip Electronics acquired Resurgent Semiconductor, expanding its obsolescence management portfolio with extended-life manufacturing services for obsolete and end-of-life (EOL) semiconductor components. Initially rebranded as Resurgent Manufacturing Services under the Flip umbrella, the subsidiary's transition to Flip Electronics Manufacturing Services reflects a natural evolution, reinforcing Flip's dedication to "Making Obsolescence Obsolete." This commitment is delivered through authorized distribution, extended-life semiconductor manufacturing, and comprehensive EOL planning and mitigation services.
"FMS, formerly Resurgent, enables us to bridge the gap between the lifecycle of semiconductor components and the lifecycles of products that rely on them," said Jason Murphy, CEO, Flip Electronics. "We provide customers with trusted and reliable access to certified parts from original component manufacturer (OCM), ensuring performance as specified. These parts are fully form-fit-function compatible with the original manufacturer's datasheet, reducing risks from gray market procurement, component shortages, and costly redesigns."
Flip Electronics Manufacturing Services holds licensing agreements with top global semiconductor manufacturers to produce obsolete and end-of-life (EOL) electronic components. Utilizing the same wafer fabrication, assembly, and testing tools, along with licensed test software, Flip delivers authentic 1:1 drop-in replacements—never emulations—within a fabless manufacturing model. This approach ensures that all components meet the form, fit, and function specifications detailed in the original manufacturer's datasheet, guaranteeing exceptional reliability, quality, and performance.
"The partnership between Flip and Resurgent has been exceptional. As envisioned, each team's expertise and capabilities complement one another with a singular goal — to help companies across all industries successfully navigate obsolescence and reliably extend their products' lifecycles," said Duker Dapper, Vice President and General Manager of Flip Electronics Manufacturing Services. "As a unified front, our authorized manufacturer relationships, global supply chain expertise, and extended semiconductor manufacturing solutions provide customers with the proactive EOL mitigation strategies they need to address the growing challenges of obsolescence."
