Fairchild Semiconductor (NYSE: FCS), a leading global supplier
of high performance power and mobile products, is a finalist in
three product innovation categories in the prestigious EDN
Innovation Awards for 2010. The FSA800, a USB accessory switch, was
chosen as a finalist in the Analog: Signal Path category.
Fairchild’s FSEZ1016A, a primary-side regulation (PSR) pulse-width
modulation (PWM) controller, is a finalist in the Power: Lighting
category, while Fairchild’s FAN9612 interleaved dual
Boundary-Conduction-Mode (BCM) Power-Factor-Correction (PFC)
controller is a finalist in the Power: Converters category.
Fairchild’s FSA800 is a 3:1 USB accessory analog switch that
enables USB data, audio signals and UART data to share a common
connector. The FSA800 has charger detection functionality and
microphone connection capability while still providing superior
audio signal integrity. This device also features over voltage
protection (OVP) and allows for battery charging on the VBUS
line.
The FSEZ1016A is a highly integrated PWM controller that powers
high-brightness (HB) light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Its proprietary
PSR technology enables a simplified circuit design, which
eliminates the secondary-side feedback circuitry in battery charger
applications. A low-cost, smaller and lighter charger is the result
when compared with a conventional design or a linear transformer.
It also features a low startup current (10 µA), which allows the
adapter or system to meet low standby power regulations.
The FAN9612 is an interleaved dual BCM PFC controller. It
operates two parallel-connected boost power trains 180° out of
phase. This controller maximizes efficiency up to 96 percent even
at low-line. It can be used in 100 to1000W offline AC-DC power
supplies for digital TVs, desktop and entry-level server computers,
front-end telecom systems and industrial power systems.
Readers and registered users of EDN are invited to vote for the
winners in various categories. Voting runs from February 18 through
March 19. Innovation Award winners will be announced during a
reception to be held on April 26 in San Jose.
