O2Micro Debuts Royer Challenger/Raptor Line

O2Micro International Ltd. (George Town, Grand Cayman), a supplier of power management and security ICs to mobile computer and communications manufacturers, introduced its Royer Challenger and Royer Raptor family of inverter/controller products.

The new product line features a patent-pending circuit methodology to replace traditional two- and four-lamp, Royer-based, inverter designs for 15in and 17in LCD desktop monitors. The new family of products will allow customers to upgrade traditional, multiple-stage, Royer designs with patented, single-stage technology, achieving higher performance from a smaller IC, while maintaining a low cost.
