		<description><![CDATA[At APEC 2011, booth 209, Fairchild will demo the highly-integrated green-mode PWM controller, the FAN6755. Fairchild&#8217;s PWM controllers have several features that enhance the performance of flyback converters. For example, to minimize standby power consumption, a proprietary adaptive green-mode function reduces switching frequency at light-load condition. The minimum PWM frequency is set above 23kHz in [...]]]></description>

How do you keep up with changing technology?
 
More and more people are using their smartphones for multimedia purposes – whether it’s watching videos on YouTube® or listening to their favorite songs, which in turn, mean users are plugging headphones into their smartphone for listening. This has taken off and grown exponentially as an “all-in-one” entertainment [...]]]></description>

At IIC China 2011, Fairchild will demonstrate its Low Power Solutions at booth 2J19.
 
One area we’ll be highlighting is the FSEZ1317. When using this solution, a low-cost, smaller, and lighter charger results, as compared to a conventional SSR (secondary side regulated) design or a linear transformer. To minimize standby power consumption, the proprietary green mode [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Written by Ming-Chang Tsou, Tim-Lee and Kenny-Chan
Energy-saving technologies have been the focus of today&#8217;s electronics, particularly in the area of standby power consumption. Standby power consumption is important since many electronic devices are in standby mode a great deal of time, and this is where there can be tremendous opportunities to save power.
To reduce standby [...]]]></description>

Power consumption starts once an electronic device is plugged in, even if most of the time, it is in standby mode. An integrated power IC becomes a key feature for efficiency improvements in power management that can help reduce total costs, switching losses and improve EMI performance for light, slim and smaller power supply designs.

Dear Dr. FAE. It would be really great if you would provide MOSFETs with lower on resistance. Resistance causes heat and this heat represents wasted energy. Why do you hate the environment?

- Angry in Augusta

Dear Dr. Fred. I am switching your FETs at a high frequency and the switching loss is the dominant loss factor. [...]]]></description>
