Introduction

Advanced electronic systems that use a single voltage supply are a thing of the past. Today’s electronic systems require several regulated voltages; even relatively simple subsystems need a minimum of two supplies. Microprocessors and DSPs, for example, might require both a 1.8V core supply and a 3.3V supply for I/O and memory. Many board level systems require both 3.3V and 5V. Added to this mix is the ever-increasing packaging density ...
