(March 12, 2008) Santa Clara, CA Advanced Analogic Technologies Inc. (AnalogicTech), a developer of power management semiconductors for mobile consumer electronic devices, has made available chip scale packages (CSPs) for its AAT1149 and AAT1171 DC/DC converters. Bond wires are eliminated, offering a reduction in footprint. The new packaging option also reportedly reduces stray inductance, capacitance and resistance and therefore noise, compared to traditional packaging with bond wires.
