DPT allows the system to accurately monitor its power consumption and thermal performance and also enables telemetry capability, providing access to critical information including current, temperature and voltage.

The technology offers increased system efficiency, improved design flexibility, faster time to market, decreased footprint size and lower system costs.

Power-One president of Power Solutions Steve Hogge said the company is pleased to license its Digital Power Technology to ZMDI to be incorporated into its products.

"With the expanding number of leading power supply and semiconductor companies partnering with Power-One, we will continue to expand the market by providing energy-efficient technologies with increased functionality for our customers," Hogge said.

ZMDI Business-Line Manager for Standard Components Bernhard Huber said that leveraging the DPT patents is in line with the company’s goal of delivering energy-efficient solutions for point-of-load applications.

Huber stated "We can focus on developing chipsets that address all output loading conditions based on ZMDI’s performance goals."
