PMBus Dual Current-Mode Programmable DC-DC Controller

Linear Technology Corporationannounces the LTC3884, a dual-output current-mode synchronous step-down dc-dc controller with programmable loop compensation and I²C-based PMBus interface. This device enables the use of very low dc resistance (DCR) power inductors (0.3 milliohms) by enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio of the current sense signal to maximize converter efficiency and increase power density.

SMD Shunts offer 0.2 milliOhm Resistance

The HCS Series from Stackpole now includes an 0.2 milliOhm resistance value in the 3920 and 5930 chip sizes. This extremely low resistance value allows higher power current sensing with greater efficiency. In addition, the all-metal raised element means lower PCB temperatures due to increased convection under the part. The HCS typically runs 15 to 30 degrees C cooler than
