Hewlett- Packard 'Componen~s
A decade of intensive solid state research, the development of
advanced manufacturing techniques and continued expansion
has enabled Hewlett-Packard to become a high volume
supplier of quality, competitively priced LED displays, LED
lamps, isolators, and photodetectors.
In addition to our broad product line, Hewlett-Packard also
offers the following services: immediate delivery from any of
our authorized stocking distributors, applications support,
special QA testing, and a one year guarantee on all of our
optoelectronic products.
This package of products and services has enabled Hewlett-
Packard to become a recognized leader in the optoelectronic
industry.

Hewlett-Packard is one of the world's leading designers and manufacturers of electronic,
medical, analytical, and computing instruments and systems, diodes, transistors, and
optoelectronic products. Since its founding in Palo Alto, California, in 1939, HP has done
its best to offer only products that represent significant technological advancements.
To maintain its leadership in instrument and component technology, Hewlett-Packard
invests heavily in new product development. Research and development expenditures
traditionally average about 10 percent of sales revenue, and 1,500 engineers and scientists
are assigned the responsibilities of carrying out the company's various Rand 0 projects.
HP produces more than 3,500 products at 30 domestic divisions in California, Colorado,
Oregon, Idaho, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Pennsylvania and at overseas plants
located in the German Federal Republic, Scotland, France, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia
and Brazil.
However, for the customer, Hewlett-Packard is no farther away than the nearest
telephone. Hewlett-Packard currently has sales and service offices located around the
world.
These field offices are staffed by trained engineers, each of whom has the primary
responsibility of providing technical assistance and data to customers. A vast
communications network has been established to link each field office with the factories
and with corporate offices. No matter what the product or the request, a customer can
be accommodated by a single contact with the company.
Hewlett-Packard is guided by a set of written objectives. One of these is "to provide
products and services of the greatest possible value to our customers". Through
application of advanced technology, efficient manufacturing, and imaginative marketing,
it is the customer that the more than 30,000 Hewlett-Packard people strive to serve.
Every effort is made to anticipate the customer's needs, to provide the customer with
products that will enable more efficient operation, to offer the kind of service and
reliability that will merit the customer's highest confidence, and to provide all of this at a
reasonable price.
To better serve its many customers' broad spectrum of technological needs, Hewlett-
Packard publishes several catalogs. Among these are:
