Compact Buck Controllers for GPU/CPU Applications
Semtech Corp has announced the SC471(A) and SC475A synchronous, pulse-width modulation (PWM) buck controllers with integrated voltage-transitioning switches for “on-the-fly” voltage output changes and voltage margining. The SC471(A) features two FET switches to allow the output to change dynamically between up to four different levels. The SC471(A) can be used as a voltage-margining controller for functionality and reliability testing of a ...
VHDL/Verilog Converters upgraded for Verilog 2005
SynaptiCAD has upgraded the V2V tools that translate bidirectionally between Verilog and VHDL source code. These translators are primarily aimed at converting behavioral and/or RTL-level code and are most often used when a designer has received IP in another language than his preferred design language.
