Description
There should be no question that we have seen increasing importance placed on energy efficiency as a goal in power supply design. This topic addresses the incentives for this emphasis, both market-driven and regulatory, by describing some effective voluntary programs and reviewing the status of developing government requirements. A review of contributors to power losses will be given together with design techniques and suggestions for minimizing their impact with new power supply architectures.

PRESENTER
