American Raytheon Network Centric Systems (NCS) has honored the "3 Star Supplier Excellence Award" to ON Semiconductor during the annual Raytheon Supplier Excellence Awards. It’s the fifth consecutive year that ON Semiconductor has received this honor.

ON Semiconductor has launched a new one-channel Quad-Mode(TM) LED Driver, the CAT3661. With a patented architecture and integrates fault protection and fault diagnostics, the CAT3661 is designed to be used in ultra low power LED applications such as portable handheld medical equipment powered by coin cell batteries with a current of up to 5 mA.

Three Scalable Reference Designs Support Different Line Voltage Ranges and Offer High Power Factor (> 0.95) over a Wide Range of AC Input Voltage ON Semiconductor, a premier supplier of high performance, energy efficient silicon solutions for green electronics, announced the launch of a new power factor corrected dimmable LED driver for residential and commercial lighting applications.

ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ONNN) and California Micro Devices (Nasdaq: CAMD) has announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which ON Semiconductor will acquire California Micro Devices (CMD) through a cash tender offer of US$4.70 per share.

ON Semiconductor, a global supplier of high performance, energy efficient, silicon solutions for green electronics has launched two new GreenPoint® reference designs that will speed and simplify the development of high-efficiency LED-based lighting applications.

ON Semiconductor has introduced the NCP5680 supercapacitor-optimized LED flash driver capable of delivering up to 10A for photo flash and video light in ultra-slim camera phones and compact digital cameras.

Recently, ON Semiconductor has introduced a new 6W LED driver - the CAT4106. The company says the LED driver with an integrated, high-power DC-DC boost converter and on-chip diagnostics can maximize efficiency in larger, general purpose LCD panel backlighting applications.

ON Semiconductor has introduced a new 4-amp supercapacitor LED flash driver. The new CAT3224 addresses the emerging requirements for true high-intensity LED flash capability in high megapixel camera phones and standalone camera applications. The CAT3224 supercapacitor LED driver supports three key functions: precise supercapacitor charging control, management of the current discharge into the LED flash, and constant current for LED torch mode.

Recently, ON Semiconductor, a leading global supplier of high-performance, energy-efficient silicon solutions, has expanded its line of constant-current, LDD(TM) products acquired from Catalyst Semiconductor, including two new high-brightness RGB LED pixel drivers - the CAT4103 and CAT4109.

Recently, ON Semiconductor has released the NCP5890, a lighting management device that integrates LCD backlighting, fun light controls and ambient light sensing in a 3mm x 3mm x 0.55mm µQFN-16 package. It targets compact smart phone and portable media player applications.
