China Picks ON Semiconductor as Partner of Certification

ON Semiconductor has become the first and only chipmaker to receive recognition two consecutive years running from the China Certification Center for Energy Conservation Products (CECP), China's highest authority for certifying energy conservation products.

CECP presented ON Semiconductor with a Partner of China Certification on Energy Conservation award in Beijing to recognize the company’s support for China's push for standby power reduction in office automation products including printers and fax machines. The award comes just 14 months after CECP recognized ON Semiconductor's efforts to reduce "leaky electricity" as a major source of wasted energy from color-television sets that continue to use power in standby mode.

"The fact that we are recognized for a second year in a row reflects our contributions to optimize standby power performance and energy efficiency in China and worldwide," said Frank Zhang, ON Semiconductor president of China operations.
