Clearly, silicon will continue to dominate power system designs for the near- and even medium-term future. But increasingly, growth will be in new materials such as SiC and GaN, enabling new solutions including power supply on chip (PSoC) and power supply in package (PSiP) approaches. The development of PSoC and PSiP will be complemented and […]
