Server and computer system architecture has increased in tandem with power delivery (PD) requirements in recent decades. This complicates regulator design since it necessitates a compromise between ...

Power supplies for today's high-performance microprocessors require high-current, low-voltage dc-dc converters with fast transient responses. Such supplies must deliver currents of greater than 100 A ...

The CHL8100 is the first in a family of digital/mixed-signal, multiphase buck converter controller. It offers integrated digital control techniques that support core ...

Since the early 1990s, the power requirements for VCC core voltages for leading-edge processors and ASICs have become increasingly demanding, with chip voltage decreasing and current increasing. Early ...

Power requirements for high-performance microprocessors have become increasingly demanding (see Figure 1). Prior to the Pentium class of processors, 5 Volts directly from the AC-DC silver box was used ...
