Ericsson and Murata in digital power pact

Murata Power Solutions and Ericsson have teamed up to accelerate the adoption of digital power products.

The two power supply manufacturers have signed a technical collaboration agreement which includes the introduction of a range of standardised digital power modules.

“We believe this joint initiative will encourage manufacturers to speed up their adoption of digitally controlled power systems,” said Tatsuo Bizen, CEO and president of Murata Power Solutions.

“Initially, the benefits of using digitally controlled power sources were considered not to be worth the extra price, however, customers now can see the advantages digital control and monitoring can bring to their end application, so we believe that by introducing a second-source route of Ericsson’s products we will speed the development of this market,” said Bizen.

The first standardised digitally controlled power modules will be introduced this year.
