Developing more energy efficient products is an initiative of designers everywhere. In addition, designers are being challenged to extend battery life and reduce heat in portable devices, while also providing higher levels of performance in smaller spaces.

     National's new breakthrough continuous time sigma-delta ADC consumes 30% less power than competitive devices and also enables manufacturers to increase battery life and relieve heat in portable medical ultrasound, industrial imaging equipment, test and measurement systems, and more. The excellent performance-to-power ratio of the new data converter places it in the PowerWise? line of energy efficient products from National.
