Online tool organizes Ecodesign Directive efficiency standards, offers relevant reference designs

Power Integrations'  EuP Standards Finder, is an online tool that can help power supply designers take the guesswork out of making sure their products comply with the European Commission’s EuP Ecodesign Directive.  The tool makes going green easy by eliminating the need for designers to search through volumes of data to figure out what is relevant to them. Of course the tool is also a marketing vehicle, designed to strongly encourage to use Power Integrations' produucts in your final design but even if you don't there's lots of useful information to be found here.

Hosted on Power Integrations’ website, the EuP Standards Finder allows users to select an application from an A-to-Z listing and then immediately view the Tier One and Tier Two limits for standby, active-mode, and no-load power consumption. Links to relevant Power Integrations reference designs are also displayed in the search results.  Commentary from energy-efficiency standards guru Mr. Green provides additional insight into how the Ecodesign Directive applies.

The EuP Standards Finder is available now on the Power Integrations website at www.powerint.com/eup-standards-finder. The tool is frequently updated as Ecodesign Directive requirements evolve and new Power Integrations reference designs become available.
