Power Supplies With the development of mobile electronic devices and development
Sunday, August 31st, 2008In the past two decades, the rapid portable electronic equipment supply chips to promote universal incredible growth, and the power semiconductor market has become an important market for the first. Twenty years ago, almost all the power management chip (IC) are all kinds of management laptop battery, monitoring power lines and conversion (from the AC power grid power semiconductor devices or meet the requirements of the DC battery device) device.
As including mobile phones, portable media players, digital cameras, personal digital assistants, portable medical equipment, video games and mobile platforms, and many other similar equipment, portable battery-powered consumer electronics applications explosive growth, this situation has Earthshaking changes have taken place. Now, there are at least half of the power management semiconductor devices were integrated into portable devices, the other aspect of this change is also reflected in the lithium-ion (Li-Ion) inspiron battery on the number of rapid growth. Since 2001, global production of lithium-ion battery with growth of more than four times [1].
In fact, the demand for mobile electronic systems and the attendant for more portable power solution needs, is the prosperity of power management integrated circuits driving force behind the market. In recent years the semiconductor industry’s overall annual growth rate of about 7 per cent, and since 2002 has the power chip with 15 percent of the overall annual growth rate of sustained growth [2]. In addition, the power semiconductors is expected to continue this rate of growth to 2011 [3]. Overall, because of power
The equipment will be shipped over the general semiconductor devices, therefore, the electronic power system chip (or rather that is 1691P -powered mobile applications) will be significant growth that is not in doubt.
As the chip manufacturing process geometry in the past few years become more and more small, voltage levels have dropped dramatically, in order to support the new technology. That the majority of semiconductor devices are 5 volts of days gone forever. For example, a single chip in the phone with a few as low as 0.9 V (for digital baseband device) and up to 30 V (for a series of regional and keyboard for the display backlight to provide the light emitting diode) of the voltage level .
Portable system in the low-voltage chip-level power 75UYF supply system is also on the complexity and precision to the challenge. A few years ago, most of the chip rated at Level 5 volts, power is often adjust to 5 V or 5 percent less than +250 mV. In many of today’s portable system, a 1.5 V chip voltage regulator requirements in its 1.5 V level of 1.5 percent, or +22 mV within. This shows that the voltage regulator accuracy increased by 10 times.
