ZMDI Articles
Controller reacts instantaneously to any changes in output
Optimised to power FPGAs in telecomms, data communication and networking applications, the ZSPM1503 single-phase, true-digital power solution has been released by ZMDI. The device has the ability to regulate the output voltage within a tight tolerance of ±1% and minimise output ripple voltage to 5mV peak-to-peak or better, which is typically needed to power the core voltage for FPGAs with a 1.2V supply.
Controller responds quickly to large step changes in current
Designed for non-isolated, high-current POL supplies in FPGA applications, the ZSPM1502 single-phase, true-digital power solution has been released by ZMDI. The PWM controller has been optimised to provide the ultra-fast transient load response typically needed for many higher performance FPGAs in telecomms equipment operating with a 1.0V supply.
PWM controller is suitable for cloud data storage equipment
Designed for non-isolated, high-current PoL supplies, the ZSPM1501 single-phase true-digital power solution has been released by ZMDI.
True digital PWM controller measures just 4x4mm
A configurable true digital PWM controller, with integrated MOSFET driver for smart digital PoL solutions, has been released by ZMDI. The ZSPM2000 operates as a synchronous step-down converter in a single-rail, single-phase configuration. The company’s Tru-Sample Technology and State-Law Control algorithms ensure best-in-class transient performance and steady-state behaviour.
PVM controllers simplify design & speed time-to-market

Controllers power next-gen enterprise networking equipment
ZMDI has released the ZSPM1505 and ZSPM1506 single–phase true–digital power controllers, which are optimised for powering auxiliary power rails for FPGAs in enterprise networking and storage applications. These devices expand the company’s energy-efficient Power Management ICs product line for enterprise networking and storage applications.
Digital power controller minimises output voltage deviation
The ZSPM1504, a single-phase true-digital power controller optimised for powering SoC supplies in embedded computing applications, has been released by ZMDI. The ZSPM15xx family features ZMDI’s Sub-Cycle Response technique to drive the digital pulse width modulation asynchronously during load transients. This enables the controller to minimise the output voltage deviation and allow the output capacitors to recharge faster. It permits t...
ZMDI contributes to mobile sensor specification
As a member of the MIPI Alliance, ZMDI has contributed to the development of the MIPI I3CSM digital interface specification targeted at mobile sensor applications. MIPI I3CSM was introduced on 5th November 2014 by MIPI Alliance in conjunction with the MEMS Executive Congress. The name MIPI SenseWireSM applies to the use of I3CSM in mobile devices connecting to a set of sensors directly or indirectly.
