Mouser Electronics is a catalog distributor of electronic components based in Mansfield, Texas. In January of 2000, Mouser became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TTI, Inc. in Fort Worth, Texas.

Originally founded in El Cajon, California by Jerry Mouser in 1964, the company eventually relocated to their ever-expanding branch location in Mansfield, Texas. Today, Mouser ships over 30,000 lines per day out of their 432,000-square-foot (40,100 m²) facility[citation needed]. Mouser is currently the only electronic component distributor to publish a new, comprehensive parts catalog every 90 days. Their current catalog is more than 1,800 pages and references over 730,000 part numbers. Additionally, customers can browse an online version of their parts catalog complete with datasheets and cross-references.

On March 30, 2007, Mouser became part of the Berkshire Hathaway Group, owned by Warren Buffett.
