Seminar Title:
Point of load power converters and Processor power delivery
Abstract:
Point of load converters are being used in a variety of applications. Efficiency, power density, size, cost, transient response and output current capability are some of the driving requirements. These requirements are severely challenged when powering modern data centers and AI processors. These processors are demanding up to 2000 Amp power supply solutions with increasing efficiency and transient performance. Given this, there is significant innovation happening in this area. This lecture will explain challenges and considerations of point of load power converters, how they are used for AI processors and data center processors, high performance processor power delivery and trends.
