Abstract: Bonding a full-bridge device and an LLC device in a stack, or forming the full-bridge device and the LLC device on a same substrate, rather than connecting the devices, reduces a chip area associated with a power converter including the full-bridge device and the LLC device. Additionally, the full-bridge device and the LLC device consume less power because parasitic inductance and capacitance are reduced. Additionally, raw materials and production time are conserved that would otherwise have been used to connect the full-bridge device and the LLC device (e.g., via wires).
