A panel discussion, Developing the Next Generation of Power Supplies at PCIM Europe looks at what is needed next and how this can be achieved.

A standard has been announced by the Architects of Modern Power (AMP Group) consortium which aims to keep designers of high-performance datacom and telecom equipment one step ahead as cloud computing and IoT continue to drive power density and power requirements higher. 

The Architects of Modern Power (AMP Group) consortium has announced an additional standard aimed at establishing common mechanical and electrical specifications for the development of advanced power conversion technology for distributed power systems.

Architects of Modern Power (AMP Group) consortium has announced a recent standard aimed at establishing common mechanical and electrical specifications for the development of advanced power conversion technology for distributed power systems. The ‘picoAMP’ standard, designed for the lower range of the spectrum for board-level conversion needs, provides customers with a non-isolated standards platform ranging from 6 to 18A. The standar...

Building on the four initial standards it published in November 2014, the Architects of Modern Power (AMP Group) consortium has announced a further standard aimed at establishing common mechanical and electrical specifications for the development of advanced power conversion technology for distributed power systems. 

Mark Adams, The AMP Group, explains why power is presenting a new design challenge for the industry and how it’s being addressed.
