\"GWS<\/a><\/p>\n

Home automation systems are becoming ever popular to help enhance convenience, safety, comfort, and energy efficiency of our homes. Simple, low-cost and reliable wireless networking is a key enabler for this technology, turning our once mundane homes into intelligent ones \u2013 everything from remote control of our central heating and lighting systems to surround sound throughout. However, some of the elements within these systems are battery-powered and therefore require a sophisticated charging station. A manufacturer of these battery chargers is using the ErP-compliant GWS from TDK-Lambda, which features a standby power draw of less than 0.5 Watt and an average active efficiency of 92.7% at 230V.<\/p>\n
