Achieve 92 Percent Peak Efficiency with Fairchild's Next Generation DrMOS Module
The FDMF6704, XS™ DrMOS, is the industry's first high-performance and space-efficient 6mm x 6mm DrMOS solution for synchronous DC-DC Buck regulators for computing, game console and consumer Point-of-Load (POL) applications. It delivers 92 percent peak efficiency enabling applications to meet stringent energy-efficiency specifications such as ENERGY STAR®, Climate Savers® and Green GridSM.
Enhance Flyback Converter Performance with Fairchild's Green Mode PWM Controllers
The SG6714A series of PWM controllers features a proprietary green mode function that provides off-time modulation to linearly decrease the switching frequency at light-load conditions and hence, reduce standby power. This green-mode function enables power supplies to meet international power conservation requirements.

Reduce Switching Noise and Eliminate External Components in Power Supplies with Fairchild's Green Mode PFC/Flyback-PWM Controller
The SG6905 offers a patented interleave-switching feature that synchronizes the PFC and PWM stages and reduces switching noise. It provides complete protection functions such as brownout and RI pin open/short, while requiring few external components.

Achieve High Efficiency with Fairchild's Dual High Voltage Schottky Rectifier
The MBR20150CT is a high power Schottky rectifier that provides power management and output rectification for power supplies. It features low forward voltage drop, low power losses and high surge capability.
Attain Superior Switching Performance with Fairchild's 250V N-Channel PowerTrench® MOSFET
The FDP2710 is an N-Channel MOSFET designed with Fairchild's advanced PowerTrench process to minimize on-state resistance and deliver low RDS(ON). This MOSFET offers fast switching speed and a low gate charge, delivering high performance for its 300W - 500W audio amplifiers, PDP and other applications.

AN-6072 A Low-Power, Green-Mode PWM Flyback Power Controller without Secondary Feedback (CC)
AN-6067 Design and Application of Primary-Side Regulation (PSR) PWM Controller and EZ-Switch
Fairchild Semiconductor's green FPS switch, FSFR2100, won the E-Legacy contribution to sustainability award. This highly integrated power switch was recognized for its innovative approach to conserving power and the role it plays in preserving the environment.
