Configuring in small spaces

Solve layout constraints when designing power systems for non-traditional board spaces

Vicor senior Field Applications Engineer David Berry reveals how to fit high-power, multi-rail requirements into nontraditional footprints like L-shapes or donuts. Learn to break down rails into smaller, paralleled increments. Discover the footprint advantages of isolating once with a fixed-ratio device before distributing to compact, non-isolated regulators, while managing critical EMI filtering and inductor placement constraints.
