GreenChip

[1] GreenChip ICs have also been incorporated into energy-saving compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) and some LED lighting products.

The TEA1504 included a special feature called "integrated standby burst mode" that helped monitors meet or even surpass these energy-saving targets.

This close partnership ensured the technology was well-suited for real-world applications, and many TV manufacturers adopted GreenChip II in their designs.

This combination of power savings and reliability helped GreenChip II become the leading technology in the notebook adapter market.

[8] This series functions as a secondary control IC, working in tandem with the main power supply chip in devices like laptops.

The GreenChip PC was based on patented Philips technology, integrating the standby supply into the main converter, and thus reducing the number of external components required.

The TEA173x targeted high volume computing (netbook, printer, monitor) and consumer (STB, DVD, Blu-ray, audio) applications.

They feature a resonant converter capable of being applied from 90 to 600 W. They are suitable for applications including LCD TVs and high density travel adapters.
