PI integrated power IC helps you reduce the demand for MLCC
The electronics manufacturing industry needs to have a certain degree of flexibility to cope with fluctuations in component prices and supply conditions. Power Integrations' highly integrated power conversion solutions can help manufacturers significantly reduce the number of power components and reduce the impact of component shortages, thus achieving this flexible response capability.
One common electronic component that is in short supply worldwide is multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), which are widely used for noise decoupling (attenuation), and their shortage poses a huge challenge to high-density switching circuits. A recent report from the Wall Street Journal pointed out that the industry is experiencing an unprecedented shortage of MLCCs, which has led to rising prices. In response to the hundreds of MLCCs typically used in a smartphone and as many as 10,000 in an electric vehicle, electronic component buyers often stockpile a year's supply, which not only costs a lot but also increases the complexity of logistics.
PI products have a very high level of integration, which can reduce and minimize circuit loops within the power supply, which helps reduce noise and thus reduce the need for MLCC.
