A big sigh of relief for designers working on highly space-constrained applications. They can now enhance efficiency and reduce the size of solutions with the help of a family of micro system-level ICs modules with the help of Maxim Integrated Product Inc. it recently presented two latest products named MAXM17532 and MAXM15462 ultra-small, both of these are integrated DC-DC power modules. These two represent a segment of Maxim’s extensive portfolio from Himalaya power solutions that would empower applications related to consumer market, communication, healthcare and industrial sectors. These two modules will allow customers to attain complete benefits of best switching regulators in industry keeping simplicity and size to a bare minimum.
The evolution of connectivity, sensing, cloud computing as well as miniaturization will pave way for further development of new trends like machine learning or artificial intelligence. Almost all new applications that will dominate the market including defense electronics, Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT), network infrastructure resources, medical devices and so forth will need to gather, analyze and decide on data. This new working methodology will demand more power in very confined spaces without influencing thermal budgets turning conventional solutions into complicated systems. Designs of new equipment need high tolerance to vibration, shock, better energy efficiency, higher temperature operations, and better EMI compliance.
Maxim’s uSLIC™ power modules will help in smooth shrinking of solutions that work on a power supply of 2.25x along with ultra-small package size. They do this by integrating a synchronous wide-input Himalaya buck regulator with in-built FETs and other related functions with integrated inductor. A perfect combination of all these components allow a designer to use those modules in mini space-constrained systems that perfectly sync with EMI and mechanical standards.
