TI STACKABLE CONTROLLER MAXIMIZES POWER DENSITY AND ENERGY PERFORMANCE IN DATA CENTERS AND TELECOM SYSTEMS
Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) introduced today a highly flexible, power management integrated circuit (IC) that turns power supplies in data centers and telecommunications equipment into fully scalable, stackable power systems with greater load-handling capability and maximum efficiency.
Flexible PWM Controller Enables Power Supplies to Easily Scale up to 320 A
TI's TPS40140 synchronous, pulse-width modulation (PWM) controller operates as a stand-alone device that generates two outputs, or as a two-channel, multi-phase controller. Using the device's advanced capabilities, designers are now able to “stack” multiple devices together to create a high-density power supply that can generate up to 320 A of output current and support up to 16 phases. In addition, the system can maintain greater power efficiency with today's power stage components.
