ZMDI, Power-One Partner on Digital Power Management Technology

ZMD AG (ZMDI) and Power-One have entered into a non-exclusive, worldwide, field of use agreement for Digital Power Technology (DPT) patents from Power-One. The agreement licenses certain of Power-One's digital power technology (DPT) patents to ZMDI, which will design and manufacture smart power management controller for modular digital point of loads (POLs) for board mounted applications using the licensed DPT. ZMDI and Power-One also signed a development agreement by which ZMDI will develop and manufacture Power-One’s next generation IC-solution for its energy-efficient power conversion products.

Digital power management provides end-users with increased control, efficiency and performance, enabling OEM products and data centers to run more efficiently. DPT dynamically reacts to the power needs of the system, reducing the number of analog board-mounted components, thereby creating a smaller footprint. Digital power provides access to critical system information including current and voltage, enabling the system to monitor the power consumption at the highest possible resolution.

ZMDI is developing highly energy-efficient power-management solutions for applications such as base stations, telecommunications switches, network routers, servers, storage and industrial personal computers (PCs).
