In the highly competitive field of manufacturing consumer
electronics for global markets, strategic partnerships with key
suppliers can be the difference between market success or failure.
In recognition of Fairchild Semiconductor’s (NYSE: FCS)
responsiveness, innovative products and dedicated people, Hisense,
one of China’s leading designers and manufacturers of appliances
and devices such as LCD TVs, air conditioners, refrigerators,
computers and CDMA mobile phones, has awarded the company a Core
Supplier Award for 2010.
“Hisense-Kelon has been using our Smart Power Module (SPM®) and
Power Factor Correction (PFC) solutions in their world class range
of inverter air conditioners since 2004,” said Benjamin Tan,
Fairchild’s regional vice president, Sales & Marketing, China
and SEA. “These solutions enable Hisense-Kelon to design and
manufacture air conditioners that increase power efficiency and
system reliability as well as improve performance.”
In the white goods and other markets that need motion control,
the industry is demanding solutions that increase efficiency,
decrease system cost and simplify design. Replacing induction
motors with permanent-magnet motors can increase efficiency by 5
percent, and using a DC inverter in inverter air-conditioners and
other home appliances can lower energy consumption by 40
percent.
Fairchild provides Hisense-Kelon with total solutions for their
inverter based air-conditioners. The Motion-SPM™ product family
integrates all the well-proven elements needed in a Mini-DIP
package, including HVIC, LVIC, NPT IGBT, FRD and bootstrap diode,
reducing the need for up to 22 discrete components. Motion-SPM
products are also an excellent solution for home appliances or
industrial motor applications that require high power because they
deliver excellent inverter power control to implement high
efficiency three-phase motors, while greatly reducing PCB size,
cost and time-to-market, and increase system reliability.
Fairchild’s highly innovative and integrated SPM products,
packaging technology and system expertise helps customers
differentiate their end applications. Fairchild’s unique package
technology provides excellent system performance, which allows
Hisense-Kelon to develop more competitive solutions.
“Fairchild is widely recognized as a world leader in products
that enable energy-efficiency,” said Mr. Wu Wentao, vice general
manager of Hisense-Kelon Aircon Group & Purchasing Director of
Hisense Group. “The company’s responsiveness, proven innovative
products and dedicated people, provide us with excellent power
design and service. This is the reason we have given Fairchild our
Core Supplier Award.”
Fairchild also provides Hisense with leading-edge power
management and analog switch solutions for deployment in their
comprehensive range of CRT, LCD, Plasma and LCD TVs, targeting
domestic and international markets. Last year, Fairchild received a
Hisense Strategic Supplier Award.
"Receiving this Core Supplier Award highlights the significant
contribution that Fairchild has made and continues to make to the
rapidly growing design and manufacturing industry in China,"
concluded Tan. “It also validates our focus on developing the right
technology to drive energy-efficiency, and to deliver the products
our customer need on time.”
