DC/DC Power Management IC Line Grows Through Acquisition

With the acquisition of Unisem Inc., the company has expanded its dc/dc power management IC product lines. The newly acquired control ICs and low dropout linear regulators complement the firm's line of HEXFET MOSFETs. The switching control ICs and LDO regulators meet or exceed voltage and power requirements recommended for desktop, notebook and mobile products. Next-generation microprocessors and chipsets have power requirements with extreme dynamic load conditions. The new control ICs, such as the IRU3004, are designed with an architecture enabling a fast transient response time of
