Fully Integrated DC-DC Converters

Focus:

By developing lateral MOSFETs with fast rise and fall times, Enpirion has developed a monolithic buck regulator IC that operates at switching frequencies in the 5 to 10 MHz range, anabling co-packaging of regulator chip and an inductor.

What you’ll learn:

• How to understand the concepts underlying the co-packaging of a buck regulator and inductor
• How to understand the concepts underlying multi-meghertz switching in a buck regulator IC
• How to understand the concepts underlying operation of a power-supply-in-package (PSiP) device
