Ericsson has introduced a new 3E DC-DC regulator. The BMR461 is the first 12 x 12 x 8mm 12A digital point-of-load module to combine Dynamic Loop Compensation, low-bias current technology, advanced energy-optimization algorithms to reduce energy consumption, and a land-grid-array footprint that guarantees excellent thermal, mechanical and electrical performance.

Ericsson has unveiled an industry first with its new hybrid-regulated topology. The new PKM-NH platform is optimized for datacom board applications that have a 52V/54V system bus distribution and require regulated high-power quarter-brick-format intermediate bus converters able to deliver up to 750W.

Ericsson Power Modules have today announced the introduction of a new surface-mount DC-DC converter module. The BMR456-SI is based upon the FRIDA II platform, which was announced last year, both the surface-mount BMR456-SI and the through-hole BMR456-PI quarter-brick 3E* Advanced Bus Converters deliver unprecedented performance to system architects that are developing equipment for ICT applications.

This month Ericsson commemorates thirty years of being at the forefront of developing DC-DC power technology: from the development of its first on-board DC-DC modules to the FRIDA II platform based BMR456 and BMR 457 Advanced Bus Converters that are ideal for implementing the Dynamic Bus Voltage technology in advanced power systems architectures.

Ericsson has announced an extension of its 3E digital power module family with two new digital-communication-bus-enabled 540-648W low-profile quarter-brick Power Interface Modules (PIMs). Compliant with the 300W de facto industry-standard footprint and offering both I2C- and PMBus-based serial bus communications, the PIM4328PD and PIM4328PDA modules simplify board power monitoring and operational functionality without the need for additional exte...

Ericsson has launched the industry’s first digitally controlled Advanced Bus Converter specifically aimed at powering Redundant Array of Independent Disks and Network Attached Storage hard-disk applications that operate with high capacitive loads up to 15 millifarads. Based on the Ericsson 3E FRIDA II platform, the BMR456 ‘High-Cap’ series (BMR4560004/018) guarantees stable and accurate 12V bus voltage over the full input-voltage range.

Ericsson has had its efforts in environmental sustainability recognized at the Elektra 2012 European Electronics Industry Awards with the company winning the ‘Green Electronics Award.’ The Elektra awards recognize the achievements of companies and individuals throughout Europe and are designed to promote best practice in innovation, sales growth and employee motivation.

Ericsson has unveiled an advanced industry-first toolkit that provides board-power designers with highly advanced software to configure, implement and monitor power conversion devices — from a single unit to a complete system — including the Ericsson 3E* digital Point-Of-Load (POL) regulators, 3E Advanced Bus Converters (ABCs) and 3E Power Interface Modules (PIMs).

Ericsson has laid out its vision to system architects developing equipment for computing-intensive environments such as datacenters. The increasing demand for more Internet services and cloud computing is driving both the expansion and building of new datacenters around the world. A key challenge for operators is the minimization of energy expenditure at the board level.

Attending a sports match, concert or other event in a full stadium is a great experience that many people instantly want to share with friends and family, by - for example - uploading videos and photos to social networking sites. But interacting via Facebook, Twitter or SMS during such events can sometimes be tricky - due to the sudden increase in network traffic.

Ericsson’s Advanced Bus Converter footprint is fast becoming a new standard in digitally controlled power converters. Introduced in 2008, the Ericsson ABC footprint was designed to provide additional functionality to system architects developing advanced power architectures to reduce energy consumption and also increase flexibility in their operation and supply chain.

Ericsson has introduced the world’s first ‘toolbox’ that enables systems architects to optimize power profiles and energy configuration prior to implementation in end equipment. The 3E Design Toolbox includes a set of five modules that can be operated as stand-alone devices or interconnected to mirror complex applications requiring multiple power rails with specific configuration profiles such as sequencing, tracking, and load sharing and d...

The Ericsson ‘Digital Power Compendium’ is the most complete and authoritative collection of technical papers on advanced digital DC/DC power technologies available today. Made available in March 2012 at digitalpowercompendium.com, it has already accumulated a total of more than one thousand downloads by Power architects, engineers and students.

Ericsson enrichit son design kit 3E Gold Edition avec deux cartes de développement. Lancé en juin 2011, le design kit 3E Gold est largement utilisé par les architectes de cartes et de systèmes, et facilite l’implémentation des convertisseurs avancés de bus intermédiaire BMR453 et BMR454 d’Ericsson, et de ses régulateurs de point de charge (POL) 3E BMR462, BMR463 et BMR464, contrôlés numériquement via le PMBus.
