Energy-saving Devices


We provide semiconductor devices with increasingly advanced functions and high-performance that help our customers build greener products.

In recent years, as IT product functions become increasingly advanced, they consume much less power and are lighter and more compact.
The NEC Electronics Group contributes to the achievement of these diametrically opposed requirements by making semiconductor devices that are smaller, contain more advanced functions, and consume less power per functional unit to provide solutions that help customers produce energy-saving products.


The contribution of LSIs to IT products


New energy-saving technologies


EFLIP* element for mobile-phone lithium battey protection


32-bit microcontroller for inverter air-conditioner


LCD controller, driver IC


Power IC for injector drive


Leading-edge electronic devices now under development faced the challenge of physical limitations resulting in greater standby leakage current. By modifying materials and circuit technology, we have developed a new technology that achieves 1/10 reduction in leakage current. The new technology will enable our customers to offer products with reduced standby power consumption and CO2 emissions. We will continue to contribute to the creation of energy-saving semiconductor devices by introducing new technologies into our nest-generation semiconductor devices.
