William Clough, president & chief executive officer, stated, "These financial results and the other accomplishments we achieved in 2012 continue to demonstrate the effectiveness of our initiatives, including an enhanced sales channel, the elimination of significant debt, and the continued introduction and commercialization of our new products, including products based upon CUI Global's proprietary technologies."
"As our Vergence® Technology; our Novum® Digital Point-of-Load Technology; and our Solus® Technology come to market this year, coupled with the significant reduction in debt we accomplished in 2012, should both combine to put us in a position to see significant growth in revenue. Our up-listing to the Nasdaq Capital Market in 2012, which has significantly broadened our shareholder base, should also enhance our ability to increase shareholder value in 2013," Clough concluded.

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.
