Placement of regulators for core voltage levels closer to the chips that need them Usage of unique materials like ECMs in PCBs and packages to provide power rail capacitance Package-level and ...

Comprising a small pc-board with decoupling capacitors on one side and solder balls on the other, the QStack power delivery module attaches directly underneath a BGA package to reduce or eliminate the ...

Editor's note: This article addresses the need for designers of printed circuit boards for nextgen ICs to be savvy about package-on-package technology. New ways of working with sub-assembly printed ...

Deep-submicron systems-on-a-chip (SoCs) require a power-grid voltage drop of much less than 10% of VDD. Decoupling capacitors, or decaps, help achieve this goal by minimizing switching noise.

When designing the power systems for 5G applications, designers must consider the wide range of frequencies intrinsic to such applications, from mid-range frequencies in the voltage regulators to high ...
