Integration of Cypress LED Controller in MSi LED Bulbs Provides Energy Savings in Macy’s Stores

Cypress Semiconductor, a company specializing in USB controllers, announced that MSi’s LED replacement lamps include Cypress’ LED power controller. This combination is allowing Macy’s stores across California to achieve increased energy savings.

MSi manufactures and develops solid-state lighting solutions and Cypress provides lighting solutions including the AC-DC Power Controllers for use in LED retrofits. Macy’s is currently replacing around 117,000 conventional incandescent light bulbs with new LED bulbs in 86 stores.

The LED bulbs consume 73% less energy and have an operating life of 10 years, thereby minimizing landfill disposal. The lamps would help the stores to achieve energy savings of around 16,200 MW/h annually.

Cypress’ Director of Marketing for PowerPSoC business, Brian Moody stated that the company’s technology is delivering important benefits in Macy’s retrofit project. He added that the advantages of LED lighting are resulting in increased growth.
