High-power-density MHz-switching monolithic DC-DC converter with thin-film inductor
2000
In this paper, we report the newly developed DC-DC converter IC termed monolithic DC-DC converter, in which a thin-film inductor and power IC are integrated, and describe the micro DC-DC converter module utilizing this IC. The thin-film inductor used in the monolithic DC-DC converter was fabricated by RF sputtering, photosensitive polyimide lithography and electro-plating onto the power IC. The micro DC-DC converter module using the monolithic DC-DC converter achieved power density of 5.6 W/cm/sup 3/ at output power of 1 W and maximum efficiency of 83.3% at switching frequency of 3 MHz.
