PSR-Based 0W Standby Power USB Type-C® PD3.0 Charger

Putting electronic products in standby mode consumes a large amount of electricity (<30mW to 75mW). There being billions of phone chargers plugged in, and therefore in standby mode most of the time, makes the problem even worse.

Therefore, offering 0W standby power chargers (< 5mW, VAC 230V) is the most effective solution to tackle the current situation for the entry-level 15-20W USB PD3.0 charger designs.
