NexFET generation 2, new way to power

In this paper, an integrated NexFET power module is presented to meet requirements on next-generation, high efficiency and high current density DC-DC converters for computer applications. The new power module uses an innovative stacked-die package technology, implements low Vth power MOSFET in the low-side position, and introduces monolithically integrated components to avoid shoot-through and minimize voltage ringing at the switch node. In synchronous buck application, this power module achieves over 90% efficiency and low switch node ringing at high output current rating (25A) and high operation frequency (1MHz) under 12V input and 1.3V output condition.
