Consumer Electronics

Today’s electronics, such as smartphones and tablets are powered by lithium batteries, and charging these billions of batteries around the clock has a significant energy footprint and impact on the environment. Smartphones, for example, can become warm, even unbearably hot when being charged, which leads to wasted energy when converting from the voltage of the power source to the operating voltage. Wasted energy also means it takes longer to charge the batteries, while consumers are constantly demanding longer battery life and faster charging times. At Halo Microelectronics, we offer a wide range of end-to-end, high-efficiency fast battery charging solutions. With charging protocols such as USB PD, UFCS, VOOC, and SCP, Halo Microelectronics’ full-fledged battery charger product line supports all major protocols and leads the industry in achieving the highest efficiency. Our high-performance DC-DC converters feature excellent transient responses to provide the most stable DC supply, ultra-low quiescent current to minimize leakage; high switching frequency to reduce the size of external components; and innovative circuit topologies designed to minimize external component count.
