Intersil Continues as Preferred Power Management Supplier for All Fujitsu Siemens Computers VR9.X and New VR10.X PC Platforms.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers MILPITAS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 27, 2003 Europe's leading computer company reaffirms confidence in Intersil's support and in its efficient and reliable Endura power management solutions Intersil Corporation (Nasdaq:ISIL ISIL International Society for Individual Liberty ISIL Interim Support Items List ISIL Intelligence Systems Integration Laboratory (Ft. Huachuca, Arizona; US Army facility for integrating intelligence systems) ), a world leader in the design and manufacture of high performance analog and wireless networking solutions, today announced that Fujitsu Siemens Computers Fujitsu Siemens Computers is a Japanese and German IT vendor, selling consumer and business computing products in the markets of Europe, the Middle East and Africa (products marketed elsewhere are sold under the Fujitsu brand). , the leading European computer company, has once again selected Intersil as its preferred power solutions provider for its PC platforms. Intersil is the supplier of Endura(TM) power management solutions for all Fujitsu Siemens Computers VR9.X-based platforms and now continues as preferred provider for all new VR10.X-based PC platforms. "The continued selection of Intersil by Fujitsu Siemens Computers as their preferred power management solutions provider is a great affirmation of their confidence in our products and support," said Rick Furtney, vice president and general manager of Intersil's High Performance Analog Product Group. "Fujitsu Siemens Computers is a leading provider of professional PCs, notebooks and workstations, and is Europe's leading supplier of PCs for home users and small offices. We are proud to play a role in their success as a leading-edge computing company. This further strengthens our position as the world's leader in microprocessor power control." "Intersil has clearly distinguished themselves as the leader in power management solutions for today's and tomorrow's computing systems," said Peter Esser, Executive Vice President Volume Products at Fujitsu Siemens Computers. "Intersil is our preferred power solutions provider because they provide us with excellent service along with reliable and advanced power solutions that are cost-effective in support of our success in highly competitive markets."

PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) A modulation technique that generates variable-width pulses to represent the amplitude of an analog input signal. Like its fixed-width pulse density modulation (PDM) cousin, the output switching transistor is on more of the time for a controller IC combined with HIP660XBCR MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) The most popular and widely used type of field effect transistor (see FET). MOSFETs are either NMOS (n-channel) or PMOS (p-channel) transistors, which are fabricated as individually packaged driver ICs to provide the VRD VRD Virtual Reference Desk VRD Virtual Retinal Display VRD Voirie et Réseaux Divers (French: External Works, or Roads & Utility Services) VRD Vocational Rehabilitation Division (Oregon DHS) 10.X CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. core power solution. The controller comes in the tiny 32-pad 5 X 5 mm Quad Flat No-lead (QFN QFN Quad Flat No-Lead QFN Queen Fan Newsletter (rock band) QFN Quad Flat No Leads ) package and the drivers are offered in the 16-pad 4 X 4 mm QFN package that makes possible a very space- and power-efficient design. This solution offers the industry's lowest bill of materials The list of components that make up a system. For example, a bill of materials for a house would include the cement block, lumber, shingles, doors, windows, plumbing, electric, heating and so on. and enables "cut-and-paste" CPU core regulator designs that quickly and economically transfer from one VRD10.X motherboard model to the next. The ISL6556A is a two- to four-phase synchronous-buck controller that uses interleaved timing to multiply channel ripple frequency and reduce input and output ripple currents. Lower ripple results in fewer components, lower component cost, reduced power dissipation, and a smaller implementation area. The ISL6556A utilizes differential voltage sensing and adjustable reference voltage offset to regulate the output voltage. The RDS (1) (Remote Data Services) A set of programming interfaces from Microsoft that enables users to update data on the Internet or intranets from their ActiveX-enabled browser. (ON) current-sensing method is used to measure current in each phase and generate droop current. An external negative temperature coefficient A negative temperature coefficient (NTC) occurs when the thermal conductivity of a material rises with increasing temperature, typically in a defined temperature range. For most materials, the thermal conductivity will decrease with increasing temperature. compensation circuit can be used to completely nullify the effect of RDS(ON) temperature sensitivity to ensure the accuracy of droop and output voltage regulation. The entire solution offers +/- 0.5% system accuracy over life, load, line and temperature with differential remote voltage sensing and adjustable reference voltage offset. Intersil's Dynamic-VID(TM) technology enables seamless on-the-fly 6-bit VID VID Video VID Vide (Latin: See) VID Vendor Id (USB PnP ID) VID Visual InterDev (Microsoft development environment) VID VLAN Identifier (IEEE 802. step voltage changes specified for VR10.X platforms. The ISL6556A can be a 12-V-only CPU core controller, thereby eliminating the requirement for an additional voltage source to generate power for the chip. The Intersil Endura ISL6520A regulator IC was selected to provide DDR (Double Data Rate) Refers to an SDRAM memory chip that increases performance by doubling the effective data rate of the frontside bus. For more details, see SDRAM. DDR - Double Data Rate Random Access Memory memory core power regulation. The ISL6520A provides simple, single feedback loop, voltage-mode control with fast transient response. The output voltage can be precisely regulated to as low as 0.8 V, with a maximum tolerance of +/- 1.5% over temperature and line voltage variations. A fixed frequency oscillator oscillator Mechanical or electronic device that produces a back-and-forth periodic motion. A pendulum is a simple mechanical oscillator that swings with a constant amplitude, requiring the addition of energy at each swing only to compensate for the energy lost because of air reduces design complexity, while balancing typical application cost and efficiency. Digital soft start eliminates an external capacitor. About Fujitsu Siemens Computers Computers Fujitsu Siemens Computers is the leading European computer company.
