Power management and amplifiers
Power Management. The market share leader in power regulators,
National's power management circuits are found in everything
from handheld battery-powered devices to higher-voltage systems
such as those in automobiles, servers, telecom equipment and industrial
products. The company's power portfolio is unique in both depth
and breadth, featuring power management switchers and controllers,
Power-over-Ethernet interfaces, battery charger ICs, highly integrated
subsystems, and lighting management for everything from cell phone
“funlights” to rugged automotive applications. This portfolio
offers a solution for whatever a power design requires, whether
that is better energy efficiency, increased bandwidth or heat dissipation.
National specializes in sub-1V to 100V system-level solutions that
provide a combination of performance/efficiency, thermal management
and board space savings. National introduced the industry's first
LDO (low dropout) linear regulator and the innovative Simple Switcher®
products that transformed power supply design and time to market.
Operational Amplifiers. Specializing in high-performance
amplifiers and comparators, National offers a complete portfolio
of op amps addressing the high-speed, precision, low-voltage and
low-power markets with products ranging from building-block chips
to application-specific standard products (ASSPs). The company has
a long history of setting industry standards in amplifiers and continues
this trend with product releases on National's advanced VIP10 bipolar
and VIP50 BiCMOS processes.
