Arctic Sand Technologies has announced the opening of a new corporate headquarters in Burlington, MA, a new power IC design center in Santa Clara, CA and a sales, applications engineering and customer support center in Taiwan. The announcement came during the Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC 2016).
Comments Arctic Sand Technologies’ CEO Gary Davison: “With multiple product launches on the horizon to complement our industry leading LED drivers, our business is expanding into a new phase. Our new headquarters, design and sales facilities will better assure our global reach; enabling us to deploy our engineering, marketing and sales talent to fully exploit the massive potential of our game changing power conversion technologies.â€
Following on from this week’s announcement of the ARC1C0608 LED boost converter – the most efficient thinnest and smallest LED driver IC on the market for tablet / mobile computing applications – the company will soon introduce further LED boost converters targeting Ultrabooks and smartphones, and is developing a family of class leading tiny and efficient buck regulators aimed at ultra-portable, computing and data center applications.
An MIT spin-out initially funded in January 2013, the company’s growing issued patent trove includes three exclusively-licensed MIT patents co-authored by Arctic Sand’s founder and Chief Scientist David Giuliano. Arctic Sand’s TIPS™ (Transformative Integrated Power Solution) architecture establishes a new, extreme efficiency power conversion solution that dramatically reduces the amount of inductance necessary thus enabling ultra-low profile solutions with - best in industry power conversion efficiency.
