''EE Times'' (''Electronic Engineering Times'') is an
electronics industry magazine published in the United States since 1972. EE Times is currently owned by AspenCore, a division of
Arrow Electronics since August 2016.
Since its acquisition by AspenCore, EE Times has seen major editorial and publishing technology investment and a renewed emphasis on investigative coverage. New features include The Dispatch, which profiles frontline engineers and unpacks the real-life design problems and their solutions in technical yet conversational reporting.
