ON Semiconductor demonstrates LED lighting solutions

Date:   Tuesday , December 29, 2009

At a time when world leaders are discussing climate change in Copenhagen, companies like ON Semiconductor are trying to play their part in developing solutions for a greener tomorrow. The semiconductor company recently showed off its LED lighting solutions and technologies, which it claims can result in more energy savings. "Lighting represents around 30 percent of total energy consumption in buildings, so by using LED lighting a lot of energy can be saved," says Kelvin Tsiang, Marketing Manager, Power Management Group, ON Semiconductor.

According to Tsiang, the global energy production has not kept pace with the demand, and hence energy savings has become a priority. By demonstrating the energy savings on a desk lamp using a LED module by ON Semiconductor, the company claimed that a LED lamp produces more light than halogen bulb for 75 percent less power usage.
