Performance improvements of interleaving VRMs with coupling inductors
Abstract
The multichannel interleaving buck converter with small inductance has proved to be suitable for voltage regulator modules (VRMs) with low voltages, high currents, and fast transients. Integrated magnetic components are used to reduce the size of the converter and improve efficiency. However, the structure of the integrated magnetic requires precise adjustment and is not mechanical stable. This paper proposes integrated coupling inductors between the channels to solve these problems. With the proper design, coupling inductors can improve both the steady-state and dynamic performances of VRMs with easier manufacturing.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
