Fully Integrated High-Voltage DC-DC and AC-DC Conversion

This book reveals to readers how to harness high-voltage power for everyday electronics. The authors detail the transformation of up to 400 V—from household outlets and electric vehicle batteries—into the low voltage required for devices like smart home systems and LED lights. This concise guide delves into the cutting-edge integration of DC-DC and AC-DC converters onto a single microchip using a high-voltage switched-capacitor approach. Explore expert insights on topology, circuit design, and layout techniques that are shaping the future of power management. - Introduces the first-ever fully integrated DC-DC converter capable of handling up to 400 V; - Enables a fully integrated mains-supplied AC-DC converter with power density of 5K x greater than existing solutions; - Explores high-voltage fully integrated converters, with high-level analyses, practical circuits and layout techniques.
