Many of today’s electronic systems rely on mid-voltage DC power supplies, such as 12 V or 24 V automotive applications, 12 V server backplanes, or 36 V e-scooter batteries. These mid-voltage rails must step down to lower voltages in order to supply power to low-power components like microcontrollers, FPGAs, ASICs, memories, sensors, and transceivers. This power conversion needs to be efficient, simple, and low cost, with design implementation and certification fast and precise.
During the webinar, ST experts explain how ST’s DC/DC step-down converters efficiently reduce mid-voltage levels (e.g., 48 V or 24 V) to lower voltages (e.g., 12 V or 5 V). At the same time, these converters’ features – spread spectrum for improved EMC, programmable switching frequencies, and internal soft-start – assist designers in passing certifications and ensuring reliable operation.
Form factor (PCB area) and cost are two concerns when designing mid-voltage conversion solutions. ST’s L6983 converter, with its small footprint and reduced BOM cost, offers an excellent solution for space-saving and cost-effective designs.
With Time-to-Market becoming increasingly critical, circuit designers are under pressure to deliver production-ready devices in even shorter periods of time. ST addresses this challenge with eDesignSuite, a powerful simulation tool that is free and user-friendly. Designers can utilize this suite to simulate and validate their designs, reducing design time and accelerating their time-to-market. By leveraging the eDesign Suite, designers can ensure the accuracy and reliability of their designs before moving into the production phase.
Overall, this webinar will explore how ST's DC/DC step-down converters offer efficient and cost-effective solutions for mid-voltage applications, while the eDesign Suite empowers designers to streamline the design process and achieve faster time-to-market.
