Acutechnology Semiconductor Inc

Leadis Technology is a fabless semiconductor company based in Sunnyvale, California, with operations in China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan. Leadis designs, develops and markets analog and mixed-signal semiconductors that enable and enhance the features and capabilities of mobile and consumer electronics devices. Our first core product area was color display drivers with integrated controllers. These are integral components that translate digital display data into analog voltages that drive the liquid crystal or OLED array of displays used in mobile consumer electronics devices. The performance characteristics of a display driver are critical to the visual quality and appeal of the images and text generated on the display as well as the power efficiency of the mobile device. Starting in 2007, we began offering LED driver and audio solutions including a CODEC with headphone amplifier and FM transmitter. Leadis' LED driver ICs drive a precisely controlled current through the light emitting diodes of mobile backlighting units found in small panel color LCD displays. Our LED drivers feature flexible current configurability through a 1-wire or I2C interface and best-in-class efficiency, resulting in longer battery life for portable devices. When coupled with Leadis' PowerLite line of LCD display drivers, our LED driver solutions can help customers achieve power savings up to 50% compared with standard architectures. ...
