A second source needs to either perform better, or have lower cost (thus potentially lower selling price, or higher profit margin) to be a viable product. Mostly these are ad hoc standards, based on the original product datasheet x second source mfgr test limits. | |

And they insisted on having multiple sources for each component. So they would demand, for example, that National would license their design to at least one other company before they'd agree to buy the part. And so National would do that. | |
