Bellnix Targets Xilinx FPGAs with Quad-Output Converter Module with PMBus Interface and Digital Control

Bellnix Co., Ltd. has introduced the BPE-37 dc-dc converter module. The BPE-37 has 4 (point-of-load converters) POLs on a board, BSV-1.5S12R0H, BSV-3.3S8R0M, BSV-1.8S4R0NA and BSV-3.3S3R0H. It supports ultra-high speed serial transceiver applications (25-28Gbps) on high-end FPGAs such as Xilinx Virtex-7 H580T and Virtex-7 H870.

"Bellnix power supplies are among the quietest switching power supplies we have tested with the Virtex-7 H580T All Programmable FPGA. Customers who want to extract the most out of their transceiver link budget will find they can still achieve their design parameters with a low-noise switching power supply," Xilinx's Analog Marketing Manager Steve Logan said.

Customers can expect following benefits from using the BPE-37: Reduce component counts; Reduce total cost; Reduce engineering man-hour; Ease of use with digitally controlled voltage set point; Low Ripple Noise; Fast transient response; High efficiency; And best jitter performance from SERDES output signals.

"Customers can achieve ultra-high speed serial transceiver applications with BPE-37 and get very clean output signal from SERDES. This will enable the application to achieve high signal quality and longer transmission. No special hardware analog dc-dc converter design is needed. With BPE-37, customers can expect the best performance from your high speed serial transceiver applications such as IP routers/switch, base stations and many others. BPE-37 is the best power solution available in the market," said Kenichiro Suzuki, Managing Director at Bellnix.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules

Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure

Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
