International Rectifier Company Description
In electronics as in politics, power tends to corrupt. International Rectifier (IR) doesn't apply itself to matters of statecraft, but it has plenty of ideas about the performance of power in electronic gear. IR is a top maker of power semiconductors, which refine the electricity flowing into a device from a battery or a power grid, enabling more efficient operation. Its products -- including MOSFETs (metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors), diodes, relays, and rectifiers -- are used in appliances, automobiles, computers, communication devices, lighting and displays, gaming consoles, industrial motors, and military equipment.
