Power-One, TDK-Lambda Enter License Agreement

CAMARILLO, CA (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Power-One, Inc. (Nasdaq:PWER), a leading provider of renewable energy and energy-efficient power conversion and power management solutions, and TDK-Lambda Corp., a group company of TDK Corporation, announced that they entered into a nonexclusive, worldwide, license agreement for Digital Power Technology (DPT) patents from Power-One.

Power-One's Digital Power Technology applies to DC-DC board mount power applications in the server, storage, networking, and telecom industries, where board densities are increasing and the power management solutions required to drive FPGA's, ASICS, DSP's and other semiconductor devices are becoming more and more complex.

DPT drives increased system efficiency, improved design flexibility, faster time to market, decreased footprint size and lower system costs. It also enables telemetry capability, providing access to critical information including current, temperature and voltage. Telemetry allows the system to accurately monitor its power consumption and thermal performance, enabling designers to easily engineer key features such as system optimization, fault detection and predictive maintenance features into their end products.
