Champion Microelectronic
Champion Microelectronic is a Taiwanese IC design company providing the active PFC series. It engages in the professional design of AC-DC analog power ICs. Champion produces power ICs, power modules, field-effect transistors and fast recovery diodes. Champion Microelectronic Corp. is a Taiwan-based company principally engaged in the research, development, manufacture and distribution of integrated circuit (IC) products. The Company primarily provides power ICs, including voltage regulators, power management (PM) interface and PM application specific ICs and others; metallic oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs), which are field effect transistors applied in electronic circuits, digital circuits and power modules, as well as fast recovery diodes. The Company's IC products are mainly applied in personal computers, liquid crystal display (LCD) televisions, servers and lighting emitting diode (LED) products.

Champion ICsChampion Microelectronic Corporation designs, manufactures, and sells integrated power management ICs in Asia, the United States, and Europe. The company offers PFC/PWM controllers, high performance resonant controllers, high power density/high efficiency solutions, special chips, Ture No Standby solutions, gate drivers, and PFC diodes. Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) PFC/LED driver controller is capable of setting output voltage/current by inputting pwm signals, which make this device suitable to be used as a variable voltage PFC controller or a variable voltage LED driver controller with PFC. Champion's products are primarily used for desktop computers, cloud servers, LED displays, and others. Champion Microelectronic was founded in 1998 and is headquartered in Hsinchu City, Taiwan. The power management IC is the key to improving the power-saving performance of electronic facilities and products. Champion Microelectronic Corp. (CMC), backed by the most advanced technology from Silicon Valley, USA, has invested in AC-DC analog power IC professional design for many years. CMC has always adhered to the concept of implementing energy-saving and carbon reduction, and striving for a green world, so that the efficiency of energy-saving and electricity saving can be completely realized in our lives all over the world.

Champion Microelectronic Corporation manufactures semiconductor devices for applications accross a broad spectrum of Information Technology and industrial platforms. The Company's products provide solutions for power analog applications. Champian Microelectronic Corp. was founded on December 1998 in Hsinchu Science Park, Taiwan. It is mainly engaged in manufacture and sales of Power IC and MOSFET. Products are mostly used for the design of Power IC. Currently, the company has had bases in Taiwan and Hong Kong. Company stock issued IPO (public offering) at 31st March 2010, traded on 22nd April 2010. Champion Microelectronic specializes in analog IC design. Revenue is mainly from production and sales of Power IC. Principal competitors are Microelectronics (ST), Fairchild and other foreign manufacturers.

Champion dominates the Taiwan market. The major customer in 2009 is Synnex. Except Synnex, there are other major customers, such as Hewlett-Packard, Dell, Acer, Asus, Dompal and other powerful manufacturers. Striving for excellence, the Champion Microelectronic R&D team is fully committed to global competition, bolstering local service advantages, and propelling the power management IC bearing the Champion name to a preeminent global position. The team at Champion Microelectronic excels in precision analog IC design. As early as 2005, they distinguished themselves as the sole Taiwanese IC design firm to introduce the active PFC series. This initiative led to the launch of the innovative PFC and PWM combined power management IC product series. With an unwavering focus on enhancing performance, these advancements not only achieved a power factor (PF) value exceeding 0.99 but also pushed the overall output efficiency to 80%.

Furthermore, Champion Microelectronic has pioneered the development of zero-voltage switching PFC and PWM product series. This groundbreaking effort has significantly elevated the total output efficiency from 85% to an impressive 89%. The company's dedication to innovation is evidenced by the acquisition of patents for SLS (SRC+LLC+SR) across Taiwan, the United States, and China. A comprehensive range of products, including analogous zero-voltage switching PFC solutions, has been realized under this endeavor, culminating in the successful creation of products attaining total output efficiencies ranging from 90% to 92%. The European and American manufacturing elite have duly recognized these accomplishments.

Champion Microelectronic remains steadfast in its commitment to the future. Their ongoing dedication aims to deliver increasingly efficient, multifunctional, and cost-effective power ICs, thereby fulfilling their mission to champion the use of green technology in energy conservation.
