History |
|
Enpirion was founded in 2001 by a dedicated group of engineers with expertise
in power management architecture, power semiconductor devices, and high frequency
magnetic materials. The core research and development behind our products
was begun a decade earlier in the Power Silicon and Advanced Magnetics Groups
within Bell Laboratories. The name Enpirion is derived from the Greek
words meaning on silicon. Enpirion is today delivering its Power Systems
on Silicon (PSOS) products to some of the largest customers around the globe.

Lead-Free
and RoHS Compliance
|
Enpirion is an environmentally friendly company. From the beginning all Enpirion
products have been lead-free and RoHS compliant by design, and compatible with
high temperature manufacturing lines.

Technology |
Enpirion makes the industry's smallest power system on Silicon (PSoS) - the first
ultra-integrated all-silicon DC-to-DC converter, and the first to feature
an integrated inductor. Enpirion's patented approach capitalizes on
semiconductor geometry advances that enable a 10x switching-frequency improvement
- integrating a PWM controller, power FETs, compensation circuitry, and magnetic
components into a single turnkey IC package.

Products |
Enpirion manufactures
a growing line of Switch-mode DCDC converters with
integrated inductor. Integration of the inductor
sets Enpirion products apart from those of our competitors. The
layout and placement of the inductor is one of the
most common reasons for power IC related failures. Enpirion
solves this problem, reduces foot print, reduces
part count, and reduces noise associated with switch-mode
power conversion. Applications include high
volume consumer products such as mobile phones, portable
game players, MP3 and personal media players, as
well as data networking, telecoms, user terminal
equipment such as set top box, and of course notebook
and desktop PC.
