Application Spotlight APRIL 2017
New forms of convenient solutions for smart energy and lighting are being developed rapidly. Applications of this kind require intelligent, robust and energy-saving power supplies.
Recently, an industry leading provider of innovative and reliable indoor and outdoor lighting and controls solutions worked with ZETTLER Magnetics on the design of a USB “Type C” wall socket that combines a traditional electric outlet with USB charging receptacles. ZETTLER Magnetics provided a 3 Watt Switch-Mode Power Supply (SMPS) module with a wide 90-305VAC input capability and a 85 C ambient temperature rating as the appropriate power supply solution. The device contains UL approved tamper resistant shutters to ensure compliance with the 2011 NEC Article 406.12, requiring all 125V receptacles in dwelling units to be tamper resistant.
ZETTLER’s new HP series high performance 1 Watt to 3 Watt power supplies are specifically designed to deliver universal and energy saving capabilities required in many new smart energy market applications. These high efficiency plug-and-play solutions for low power applications are cost effectively manufactured by ZETTLER Magnetics China fully automated lines.
