Inductorless versus Inductor-Based Integrated Switching Regulators: Bill Of Material, Efficiency, Noise, and Reliability Comparisons

Inductor-based Switching Regulators (SR) have historically represented the preferred architecture for power supplies. Nowadays, for low-power and highly integrated electronic systems, embedded inductor-based SRs show several limitations that can be overcome by the use of inductorless SR architectures. This paper provides a qualitative and quantitative comparison between both types of SR in terms of implementation cost (Bill of Material, and pin count), and performance (efficiency, noise, and reliability).

Paving the way for the next generation audio codec for the True Wireless Stereo (TWS) applications - PART 1 : TWS challenges explained

The audio market for wireless Bluetooth headsets is growing rapidly. Audio devices using Bluetooth (BT) connectivity are more ubiquitous than ever. People have gotten used to wireless audio systems, and the mobile phone industry is pushing towards a world without audio connectors and cables. The latest trend in wireless headsets and speakers is True Wireless Stereo systems (TWS), consisting of two independent units that are each charged in their own charging case.

Breaking new energy efficiency records with advanced power management platform

The free lunch offered for decades by Moore’s law is now over and scaling down to the next technology node no longer offers the required energy efficiency gains. Design teams must now pursue their gains by deploying increasingly complex power management techniques to meet the demands of the new IoT markets.

Synopsys Expands Collaboration with Arm to Accelerate the Automotive Industry’s Transformation to Software-Defined Vehicles

Rising software complexity, tighter development timelines, and cost pressures require automotive companies to re-engineer how they design, deploy, and maintain their system architectures. Addressing these challenges requires an agile, collaborative approach to engineering — from silicon to systems — along with trusted partners capable of delivering powerful, integrated solutions.
