Although they are more complicated than their single-phase cousins, multiphase controller IC-based circuits provide better capability for powering the new generation of microprocessors. To understand ...

El Segundo, Calif.—International Rectifier (IR) expanded its XPhase family of scalable multiphase converter chipsets with the introduction of the IR3500 control IC and IR3505 phase IC. According to IR ...

Nonisolated DC/DC step-down voltage conversion is almost exclusively based on the ubiquitous buck regulator topology. The multiphase buck regulator has inherent advantages over its single-phase ...

The Achilles heel of all non-isolated voltage-regulator modules and point-of-load converters is the size and cost of the passives that store the energy needed when ...

Multiphase DC-DC converters can be used to provide efficiency across the entire load range, writes Bruce Haug, senior product marketing engineer at Linear TechnologyMost embedded systems are powered ...

High power step down dc/dc converters have long benefited from multiphase operation. But the advantages of multiphase operation, such as reduced input and output ripple currents, lower output noise ...

Multiphase buck converters are used to satisfy the power demands of the latest AI processors, but when it comes to checking power integrity engineers are faced with extra requirements. By Nick Le Bas.

Green point-of-load DC-DC converter designs need high efficiency and low IQ, so what is the optimal POL converter for embedded systems. Most embedded systems are powered via a 48V backplane. This ...
