Mr. Jackie Chang, president and general manager of Delta Electronics EMEA said, "As a world-leading power management solutions provider, Delta is happy to fully support the initiative of the Norwegian government with our high efficiency EV charging solutions. Delta's DC Quick Chargers are easy to install, easy to use and easy to maintain. Every Delta DC Quick Charger achieves close to 95% high efficiency to help save up to 23 MWh of energy annually and reduce 14 tons of CO2 emissions compared with standard 90% efficiency chargers. With Delta's global operations and service network in Europe, we are working with governments to cross the last mile of EV charging."
Delta's DC Quick Charger has received CHAdeMO standard certification, the global industry standard for quick charging, which regulates the charging interface, electrical signals, communication protocol, charging sequence, and safety mechanism. The DC Quick Charger provides a user-friendly interface through a 12" LCD touch screen and offers customers the convenience of full start and stop charging control from an authorized RFID smart card. Its network functionality seamlessly integrates backend service to update customers on charging information through their handheld devices.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules
Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure
Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
