HIRO pushes Europe to the edge with high-performance microdata centers
From supporting brain surgery to driving smart factories while saving power—HIRO is driving Europe to the edge with innovative computing concepts
Size of power converter prevents it from being placed close to load
High output current causes large line (I2R) losses
Large bulk-electrolytic caps crowds space near the load
Switcher close to load causes noise
Minimizes wasted energy
Low EMI
Adjusts for any load
Scales for power demands
High density
Component position flexibility
Fast transient response
Easy, modular design
The PRM uses the factorized bus current to regulate the voltage on the secondary of the VTM and provides 1% regulation at the PoL without voltage sense lines.
One regulator can drive multiple transformation stages (VTM) to provide different PoL voltages.
With its low output impedance, smaller ceramic capacitors (up to 1000x less capacitance) may be used at the VTM input in place of PoL bulk capacitors.
Select VTMs operate with source power applied to input or output terminals to support bi-directional applications.
Enables Power-on-Package technology and on motherboard for high current XPUs.
