A distributed linear regulator topology is presented to achieve uniform die temperature to avoid thermal talk between the power converter and the core loads. The topology is validated in 90nm CMOS technology to supply 200mA current to core load working at 1.2V from an unregulated supply varying between 1.62V to 3.1V.I.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
