When Precision Meets Power
Conventionally, precision analog/mixed signal IC design and high power electronics are two different worlds, with distinct design considerations and mindsets. The analog/mixed ICs focus on transistor-level perfections, while the high power electronics focuses more on the system level and treats various ICs as “black boxes”.
