Dialog Semiconductor Plc.: Dialog Semiconductor Expands Power Management Market with Industry's First PMICs for Smart TVs and Set-Top Boxes (news with additional features) - Seite 2

circuit boards can be simpler and less expensive. Pick-and-place assembly
will be up to three times faster, cutting manufacturing costs, and by
standardizing the analog power path with a few programmable power
management devices across a wide range of applications, manufacturers will
reduce both R&D and inventory costs.

The power requirements of SoC devices in TVs and STBs are becoming more
complex as video processing technology advances. The processors require
precise, highly efficient power supplies with dynamic voltage scaling and
low ripple and noise, the latter to ensure improved picture stability.
Using Dialog PMICs guarantees system cost reduction, improved power
efficiency, enhanced performance and greater reliability.

Compared with power management designs that use discrete components,
greater efficiency will deliver energy savings of up to 5 watts. Less heat
needs to be dissipated, resulting in increased reliability, which is
further enhanced because there are fewer components and connections.
Designs will be simplified because the PMICs enable centralized control of
the whole TV or STB power path. In addition the regulatory requirements
around the world are pushing for lower standby power dissipation, typically
below 300mW, which can be readily met using a PMIC-based system design.

Samples of Dialog's TV PMICs are available now and the company will be
ramping to high volume production in the second half of this year.
