The IR1161L and IR11688S meet the 2016 standards set by the US Department of Energy (DoE) and the European Code of Conduct for Energy Efficiency in Data Centre, which demand a one to 3% efficiency improvement over previous requirements. The company says that 2% saving, an average for new adapters, will save 525GWh/year for notebook users.)

The IR1161L is targeted for flyback switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) in chargers and adapters and the IR11688S is targeted for LLC SMPS in televisions, desktops, silver boxes and micro-servers.

Both offer 200V direct sensing to eliminate the need for external voltage dividers. They also have programmable minimum on-time, for reliable operation from no-load to full-load. The low quiescent current capability meets the standby requirements of the new 2016 efficiency standard in the industry.
