Our name. It’s what we do.

 

The Digital Age of electronics has given consumers amazing processing power and storage capability in the palm of their hands.  Portable devices are the standard.  And every one of these mobile products has a battery with a limited battery life. That’s why low-power design is the single most important design constraint for portable applications. It’s table-stakes to design devices that provide exceptional processing capabilities while still minimizing power consumption.

In response to the pressing need for a practical, cost-effective, and CAD-tool-supported solution to low power IC development, Low Power Processing™ (or LPP™) was developed by Power Down Semiconductor, Inc. This silicon-proven resonant drive technique will become the leading ultra-low power semiconductor solution for all portable battery-operated and energy harvesting applications.
