EE Times (Electronic Engineering Times)[1] is anelectronics industry magazine published in the United States since 1972. EE Times is currently owned by AspenCore, a division ofArrow Electronics[2] since August 2016.
EE Times was launched in 1972 by Gerard G. Leeds ofCMP Publications Inc.[citation needed] In 1999, the Leeds family sold CMP toUnited Business Media for $900 million. After 2000,EE Times moved more into web publishing. The shift in advertising from print to online began to accelerate in 2007, and the periodical shed staff to adjust to the downturn in revenue.
In July 2013, the digital edition migrated to UBM TechWeb's DeusM community platform.[3]
On June 3, 2016, UBM announced thatEE Times, along with the rest of its electronics media portfolio (EDN, Embedded.com, TechOnline, andDatasheets.com), was being sold to AspenCore Media, a company owned byArrow Electronics, for $23.5 million.[4][5] The acquisition was completed on August 1, 2016.
EE Times is free for qualified design engineers, managers, and business and corporate management in the electronics industry. It is also available online.EE Times publishes news and columns and features articles onsemiconductor manufacturing,communications,electronic design automation, electronic engineering, technology, and products. In November 2012, UBM Electronics announced that the December 2012 issue ofEE Times would be the last in print. The magazine has been published online only from 2013 onward, though in Europe there was a run of a print version from 2018.[citation needed]
