Power Management Techniques for Integrated Circuit Design (Hardcover)

<內容簡介>

This book begins with the premise that energy demands are directing scientists towards ever-greener methods of power management, so highly integrated power control ICs (integrated chip/circuit) are increasingly in demand for further reducing power consumption.

*A timely and comprehensive reference guide for IC designers dealing with the increasingly widespread demand for integrated low power management
*Includes new topics such as LED lighting, fast transient response, DVS-tracking and design with advanced technology nodes
*Leading author (Chen) is an active and renowned contributor to the power management IC design field, and has extensive industry experience
*Accompanying website includes presentation files with book illustrations, lecture notes, simulation circuits, solution manuals, instructors’ manuals, and program downloads
