Fairchild Semiconductor (NYSE:FCS) technologist Alan Elbanhawy will
chair the "Power Supplies and Consumer Applications" session at the
IEEE Power Electronics Specialists Conference (PESC) held June
16th-17th in Recife, Brazil. The session, scheduled for Thursday,
June 16th (1:45 - 4:25 p.m.), will feature eight speakers
addressing power supply technologies and solutions. Elbanhawy will
also present the paper, "Current Sharing in Multi-Converters Using
Temperature Equalization," scheduled for Tuesday, June 14th (11:20
- 11:45 a.m.). This paper offers a novel approach for guaranteeing
load current sharing that at the same time assures equalization of
case temperature of the switching MOSFETs. Alan outlines how
multi-phase converters offer excellent transient response and
efficiency performance advantages in designs such as the core
converter for personal computers. Elbanhawy is director, Computing
and Telecommunication Segments, Advanced Power Systems Center at
Fairchild Semiconductor. He holds a B.S. in Electrical Engineering
and has over thirty-five years of experience in power supply design
and R&D management. He holds four patents and has applications
pending for an additional seven. Conferences where he has presented
papers include PESC, PEDS, Intel Technology Symposium, PCIM, PPDC,
IPEC, IPEMC, IIC and Power Systems World. His papers have appeared
in five languages in international technical publications. About
