When Intel talks, people listen. So when Intel executive VP Dadi Perlmutter said in a keynote at ISSCC in 2012 that transient power noise was one of the most limiting aspects of the chip design ...

Microprocessors and application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) require low-voltage, high-current power supplies. These supplies usually have very strict requirements on output-voltage deviations ...

Semiconductor memory, card readers, microprocessors, disk drives, piezoelectric devices, and digital systems create transient loads that voltage regulators must service. Ideally, regulator output ...

The measurement of fast transient voltages is a relatively well-understood and documented procedure. However, the measurement of fast transient currents presents a number of measurement challenges ...

Using a multiphase buck-converter topology for high-current, low-voltage automotive applications. Implementation of coupled inductors in the multiphase buck topology. Test results of a ...

In the development of different technologies, many engineers encounter and have to deal with inrush currents to their devices. The reality of inrush current and the meaning of an I2t measurement will ...

We've all heard the term “transient” used in discussions of possible power quality problems, yet we still seem to have a lack of understanding of what a transient truly is. There is no precise ...

Transient power is becoming much more problematic at 10/7nm, adding yet another level of complexity for design teams already wrestling with power issues caused by leakage, a variety of power ...
