A range of step down DC/DC converter modules with integrated inductor, Panasonic has introduced the PSiP (Power Supply in Package) series. The devices are suitable for use as embedded power supplies (point of load) in IT and communication infrastructure equipment and industrial devices, such as small cell base stations, servers blades, surveillance cameras and measurement apparatus.

The PSiP modules deliver up to 10A and facilitate the design of the power supply circuit in products that require downsizing and help projects with constrained development schedule.

The PSiP series have the smallest mounting area in the industry (according to Panasonic), by integrating all the necessary components of a DC/DC regulator into tiny 8.5x7.5x4.7mm³ module packages. The original hysteretic-based controller built-in features ramp control and adaptive on time technologies, ensuring ultrafast transient responses while keeping overshoots low and supporting user-selectable operating frequencies. This contributes to reducing the number of necessary external passive components, and hence the bill of material.

PSiP modules also offer improved performance in terms of low heat generation - thanks to state of the art efficiency - and low noise profile, thanks to optimised design of the internal switching nodes.

The PSiP series shortens the design time of embedded power supplies and contributes to circuit board miniaturisation. The DC/DC converters also feature stable output voltage, selectable operating frequency and high-speed transient responses.
