Meeting the challenges of power conversion in e-bikes
Managing electrical noise in a compact and lightweight vehicle is a perpetual obstacle
High-efficiency point-of-load regulators
Vicor PI3523 ZVS Switching Regulators are high-efficiency regulators that integrate the controller, power switches, amplifiers and support components in a high-density LGA system-in-package. The regulators have high-efficiency performance under light and full load, with peak efficiency up to 98%. PI3523 regulators are available for outputs from 2.2V to 14V and current up to 22A, and are parallel capable with single-wire current sharing for larger loads. The regulators are simple to use, with a wide 30V to 60V input and internal compensation so it requires very few external components.
