Products to meet latest efficiency and no-load standards
| CamSemi products are perfect for manufacturers looking to develop low cost, high performance SMPS solutions that meet and easily beat the very latest energy efficiency standards. This graph shows how designs with C2470 controllers easily exceed Energy Star 2.0 active efficiency (red curves) and related EU standards (green curves). Click within the chart to view as a PDF. |  |
Our solutions offer high active mode efficiencies and ultra-low no-load power consumptions to comply with:
- Energy Star version 2.0 – proposed for introduction 1 November 2008.
- Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 – standards on power supplies became US federal law on 1 July 2008 (includes California Energy Commission regulations).
- EU Commission revised EPS code of conduct - due for implementation 1 January 2009.

these new standards.
For more information on the techniques CamSemi uses to enable high
efficiencies and low no-load power consumption, such as zero-voltage
switching and low voltage CMOS process, see our efficiency bulletin.

CamSemi’s RDFC topology and C2470 family of mixed signal controllers deliver:
- Energy efficiency – controllers enable low cost designs that easily meet new active mode efficiencies and no-load power consumption standards.
- Cost effective solution - low system component count, simple circuits, fully optimised for high volume markets.
- Low EMI – for fast, easy compliance with FCC part 68 and related standards with minimal components.
- Naturally safe - high isolation & surge voltage withstand. No components sitting across high and low voltage sides of transformer and in-built safety features.
