SAN JOSE, Calif., June 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrated
Device Technology, Inc. (IDT) (NASDAQ: IDTI) today announced
general availability of the IDT® P9180A, a next-generation, highly
integrated scalable power management integrated circuit (PMIC)
targeting a broad array of applications in the IoT, server,
micro-server, storage, embedded and industrial market segments. The
programmable P9180A PMIC delivers flexibility and ease of use while
supporting the varying power requirements of multiple market
segments and meeting the power needs of today's SoCs, FPGAs, and
ASICs.

The P9180A achieves its power scalability through IDT's
innovative distributed power architecture, which enables engineers
to scale power beyond the P9180A's standalone capacity by adding
distributed power units (DPUs) to the system. The IDT P9148 DPU
communicates using a proprietary two-wire interface design, greatly
reducing power subsystem complexity and enabling system designers
to optimally distribute power resources throughout the system. This
distribution helps engineers avoid or resolve the EMI, thermal and
signal integrity issues often associated with PMICs.
One-time programmable (OTP) configuration options for
customizing the settings and sequencing of the P9180A and its
associated DPUs enable system architects to leverage the device's
scalability and flexibility to address various cost, functionality
or performance nodes for a broad family of solutions--reusing the
same power architecture throughout.
"The P9180A is a single-chip solution that offers great
flexibility and scalability for developers working on platforms
with varying power needs," said Sean
Fan, vice president and general manager of IDT's Computing
and Communications Division. "Our DPU technology, combined with our
P9180A PMIC, provides a high level of integration and the ability
to scale power, a unique combination that differentiates IDT from
the rest of the PMIC vendor flock."
IDT's unique approach with DPUs allows the P9180A to be used
across various boards, form-factors, and platforms without
requiring time-consuming validation on each board variant. The
result is faster time to market and revenue for the developers and
system architects.
The P9180A is designed to be compliant with IMVP8/VR12.1 (Intel
Mobile Voltage Positioning) specifications, providing an extended
voltage ID range with 5mV step size. It is accompanied by a highly
flexible and programmable easy-to-use GUI. Alternatively, the
P9180A can be used in non-SVID end applications through a high
speed I2C interface.
