A low cost and effective implementation of standby mode power reduction

Considering the energy-saving, the issue of reduction power consumption of standby power of appliances has been considered for decade. In this paper, we present the implementation to reduce the standby power consumption. By the way of detecting the current variation and time pre-setting, we can save the wasting power. The design is easily implemented with low cost, quickly commercialized and consumes 240 mW. This design has had two silver medal award both in iENA Nuremberg and International Invention Show Technomart Taipei 2009.
