ZMD and Fairchild Semiconductor cooperate to develop energy-efficient power-management solutions for a range of point-of-load (POL) applications. According to the agreement, ZMDI's digital point-of-load technology, in conjunction with Fairchild's XS DrMOS technology, will provide highly energy-efficient power-management solutions for applications such as base stations, telecommunications switches, network routers, servers, storage and industrial personal computers (PCs).
