Switching power reduction (typ.)
Power Down Semiconductor’s LPP™ targets the single biggest source of wasted energy in modern compute: dynamic switching power. LPP™ reduces switching power by at least 90% without reducing clock frequency — from ultra-low-power IoT devices to datacenter-scale accelerators.
Build with LPP™ — as ICs, IP, or design services. Power Down supports multiple adoption paths so teams can integrate at the right abstraction level.
Application-focused chips designed with LPP™ for extreme efficiency without reducing clock frequency.
Compiler-based IP that generates LPP-enabled blocks for memories, embedded FPGA, and I/O.
We partner with chip teams to identify switching hotspots and embed LPP™ at the circuit level.
Where power becomes the bottleneck. LPP™ is designed for data processing chips — from always-on edge devices to datacenter accelerators.
Lower heat dissipation and reduce cooling burden while maintaining performance for training and inference.
Reduce energy costs per hash and unlock higher sustained throughput at stable temperatures.
Make battery life less limiting for medical innovation — from portable diagnostics to implants.
Enable always-on sensing, continuous monitoring, and long runtime without thermal discomfort.
Deliver performance-first mobile compute with dramatically lower power and less heat.
Extend life of neurostimulation and monitoring devices by lowering dynamic power in signal processing.
Conventional CMOS switching repeatedly charges and discharges capacitance from VDD to ground — turning valuable energy into heat. LPP™ reshapes switching so energy stays in the circuit and is reused on the next cycle, using resonance to cancel parasitic capacitance.
