power supply

Fairchild Semiconductor's system-power experts from the Global Power Resource Center in Fuerstenfeldbruck, Germany have developed the industry's first power supply reference design for 400W ecodesigns. This power supply reference design shows how the combination of two state-of-the-art products, the award-winning Green FPS power switch (FSFR2100) and Power-SPM (FPP06R001) in modular SIP-9 packages, creates an elegant and efficient design. With efficiency at more than 92 percent, this design exceeds the 87 percent efficiency target proposed by the Energy Using Products directive (EuP).
