About Cougar Electronics Corp.
Cougar Electronics Corp. was founded in 1968 in Brooklyn, New York, when it acquired the General Instrument Selenium Rectifier Division. In 1996 the business was purchased by its current partners, who relocated operations to New Haven, Connecticut, in 1998. The company designs, produces, and refurbishes power electronics stacks ranging from kilowatts to megawatts. It remains the last U.S. manufacturer of selenium rectifiers and suppressors, and builds custom high‑voltage assemblies, IGBT inverters and choppers, thyristor/diode modules, and silicon‑carbide assemblies. Cougar also distributes components from partners such as Kendeil, Atherm, and Novak, and supplies plating power supplies from 25 A to 15,000 A. The operation runs with nine employees and serves roughly 420 active customers. Customers span the elevator industry, transportation (rail and bus), welding equipment, oil and pipeline protection, automation, medical equipment, and the plating sector, with distribution across the United States, Central America, and South America. Cougar differentiates itself through its ability to cross‑reference obsolete semiconductors, 24‑hour shipping on stocked items, and a service‑focused approach that has earned five industry awards.
