Two key ISSCC papers show how DC-DC converter performance can be pushed to new heights Simple linear assistance can cut transient errors in DC-DC converters without wrecking stability, according to the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. It described a 30MHz DC-DC converter at the IEEE International Solid State Circuit Conference (ISSCC) in San …

The LC output filters of Class-D audio amplifiers can be simplified if overall feedback is applied to the amplifier – ‘after‑filter’ feedback. Stabilising such systems is notoriously complex. Step forward NXP, which at ISSCC 2017 described a five‑channel 80W/channel audio amplifier for automotive use. To achieve stability, it has integrated low-latency ΔΣ ADCs, each consuming …

Details of the first 10nm microprocessor were revealed in Session 3 at ISSCC when MediaTek unveiled a chip with 10 ARMv8A cores of three different types: 2.8GHz Cortex-A73s for speed, Cortex-CA53 for low power and Cortex‑CA35 for ultra-low power. Voltage scaling for the cores, the subject of ISSCC Paper 3.4, is so agile that the firm …
