NXP Semiconductors N.V. announced a new generation of GreenChip power solutions that feature the lowest standby capability in the industry, reaching levels below 10mW. The NXP GreenChip power ICs, also known as Switch Mode Power Supply controller ICs, are designed for adapters for mobile devices such as cell phone chargers, tablets and notebooks, as well as major home appliances or white goods.
The GreenChip TEA1721 is the first member of the new high-performance low-power supply controllers with less than 10mW standby power consumption, optimized for use in mobile phone chargers and major home appliances. The new GreenChip TEA173x, TEA1753 and TEA1703 ICs deliver extremely low standby power for computing devices such as notebooks, tablets and netbooks, as well as printer adapters. Together, the devices are designed to meet tomorrow's intelligent power demands from standby to maximum output power, with the lowest standby power capability in the industry.
NXP GreenChip ICs cover the entire power spectrum from three to hundreds of watts, covering nearly every portable and consumer device, while also going far beyond industry requirements. Designed to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions, GreenChip technology lies at the heart of NXP's cost-effective, high-efficiency power and lighting ICs. GreenChip products are targeted for any device that draws on AC power and offers many additional smart benefits, from minimal standby power for power supplies to CFL dimming capabilities. Further, NXP's low-cost power supply solutions come in an industry-standard small package with very few external components required, and are developed in a leading power management IC process.
