High Tech
High Tech on the APIs.io network is a curated area collecting 12 resources — specifications, tools, and documentation — for this subject.
24 providers on the network work in this area, including Texas Instruments, Particle, Arduino, Stanley Black & Decker, Cypress Semiconductor, Tive, and 18 more — each links out to that provider’s APIs, schemas, and governance artifacts.
About this area
High Tech indexes the APIs, data services, and reference artifacts that power the electronics, semiconductor, hardware, and IoT industries. The landscape covers electronic component data and distribution (Octopart / Nexar, Digi-Key, Mouser, Arrow Electronics, Avnet, Newark / element14), ECAD and PCB design data (SnapEDA, Ultra Librarian, Altium 365 via Nexar Design), hardware lifecycle and IoT device management (AWS IoT, Azure IoT Hub, Particle, Golioth), bill-of-materials and component-search workflows used across hardware product engineering, and the authoritative manufacturer data that anchors a component record (manufacturer part number, manufacturer, datasheet, lifecycle status, RoHS / REACH compliance, real-time inventory and pricing across distributors). This index captures the canonical providers, the shape of a component record as JSON Schema, a JSON-LD context aligning with schema.org Product / Offer / Organization, and the domain vocabulary used across the high-tech component supply chain.
