Key Power Management Solutions Featured
LT8627SP Synchronous Step-Down Regulator
Featuring ADI’s Silent Switcher 3 technology, this regulator delivers ultralow noise and EMI emissions with ultrafast transient response. Its 16-amp current rating makes it ideal for high-current, noise-sensitive applications. The innovative architecture enables operation at switching frequencies exceeding 1 MHz, benefiting ripple performance, size reduction, and bandwidth optimization.
MAX16165 and MAX16166 Power Sequencers
These 4-channel sequencer and supervisor devices monitor up to five voltages while sequencing four power supplies. They provide adjustable delay timing during power-up sequences and offer either open-drain (MAX16165) or push-pull (MAX16166) output options. The devices support daisy-chaining configurations for systems requiring control of numerous voltage rails.
LT3074 Low-Voltage Linear Regulator
This low-noise, ultrafast transient response regulator incorporates a PMBus serial interface and features exceptional power supply rejection ratio (PSRR). Its wide bandwidth enables the use of small ceramic capacitors, reducing bulk capacitance requirements and simplifying circuit design. The integrated voltage input-to-output control (VIOC) manages upstream switching regulators to minimize power dissipation.
LTM4700 μModule Regulator
Combining high power delivery with energy-efficient performance, this module helps reduce data center cooling requirements. The dual 50 A or single 100 A step-down DC/DC regulator incorporates fast analog control loops, precision mixed-signal circuitry, and advanced thermal management. Its innovative packaging technology enables increased server density and computational power while minimizing cooling costs.
Industry Applications and Benefits
These power management solutions address critical needs across multiple industries, from consumer electronics to data center infrastructure. The LTM4700’s architecture, for instance, allows system designers to combine up to eight devices, delivering up to 800 A of load current to power demanding processors, FPGAs, ASICs, and GPUs in data center environments.
Access to Technical Resources
Engineers and designers can access this valuable resource through Mouser Electronics’ platform, gaining practical insights into optimizing power management for their specific applications. The ebook provides detailed technical information and application examples to help design teams overcome common power design challenges.
