ice Components ICL551-1
The ICL551-1, a 5-phase inductor assembly using IKOR’s coupled inductor technology, solves the most pressing problem facing IA-32 VRDs. This patented technology solves the trade-off between efficiency and elimination of bulk capacitors by dramatically lowering the VRM output inductance while using industry-standard components and relatively low switching frequencies. This technology provides superior transient response performance to higher frequency solutions due to the unique method of coupling between phases, and enables high-current designs with little or no electrolytic output bypass capacitance.
