MagnaChip Introduces a Step-Down DC-DC for Smartphone Power Amplifiers
MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporationhas introduced a step-down dc-dc converter (model: MAP7153) designed to improve smartphone power amplifier performance and efficiency. The MAP7153 optimizes power efficiency and extends smartphone battery life by converting output voltage into bypass or high voltage while operating in high power mode, or into low voltage while in low power mode.

The MAP7153 features fast transition time, excellent line and load regulation, and minimum footprint as a result of its reduced die size and small 1.32mm x 1.27mm WLCSP package. Two switching frequencies are also selectable in the MAP7153. A 3 MHz option provides improved efficiency while a 6 MHz option saves printed circuit board space by utilizing smaller inductors.
"Customers are demanding increased performance and power efficiency from their smartphones," said H.K. Kim, EVP and General Manager of MagnaChip's Display and Power Solutions Divisions. "By incorporating our MAP7153 into their designs, smartphone manufacturers can continue to provide new and improved products that significantly enhance energy efficiency and battery capacity in the fast growing smartphone market."

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.
