Electronic Engineering Department, The Chinese University of Hong Kong - ELEG5726 - Power Management IC Design

Homepage

Objective
This course is designed for students to gain an understanding of technological development of power-management IC design. Through this course, students will learn the essentials of voltage-regulator design. Recent advances in selected topics will also be discussed.

Syllabus
Design, simulation and measurement methods of power management integrated circuits. Bandgap voltage references, linear regulators, low-dropout regulators and switching-mode regulators. Circuit layout design and floor planning.

Learning Outcome
By the end of the course, students should be able to

  • Have an overall picture of the history, progress, and importance of power-management circuits.
  • Understand the principle of operation of typical voltage regulators
  • Perform circuit designs of voltage reference, linear regulator and switching-mode power converter.
  • Understand the design tradeoffs of the specifications.
