Abstract: Apparatuses and methods of operating a flexible and optimized power management unit (PMU) for multiple power supply scenarios are described. One integrated circuit includes a first terminal to couple to an unregulated power supply, a second terminal to couple to a regulated power supply, a first regulator, and a second regulator. The first regulator outputs a first supply voltage in a first configuration, and the second regulator outputs a second supply voltage in a second configuration. The first and second regulators do not operate concurrently.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a linear regulator is formed with a variable miller compensation circuit that varies a zero of the linear regulator proportionally to a load current supplied by the regulator.

Abstract: A method of preparing a highly homogenous spinel Li1+XMn2−XO4+Y intercalation compound having a predetermined mean particle size and particle size distribution for 4 V secondary lithium and lithium ion cells is provided. The method comprises mixing at least one manganese compound having a predetermined particle size distribution with at least one lithium compound wherein the manganese compound has a mean particle size of between about 1 and 15 microns and the mean particle size of the lithium compound is less than that of the manganese compound The mixture is then fired in one or more firing steps within specific temperature ranges to form the Li1+XMn2−XO4+Y intercalation compound. Preferably, at least one firing step is at a temperature of between about 700° C. and 900° C.

Abstract: An electronic device (10) comprises a copper integrated inductor (11) overlying other solid state components (31) of the device (10). Preferably, the copper inductor (11) is formed of plated copper to a thickness of several microns. The preferred integrated inductor (11) provides significant advantage over external inductors of the past with respect to simplicity of manufacture as well as system size and cost. Additionally, the preferred inductor (11) provides improved inductance per area, lower series resistance and higher Q values, relative to inductors of the past.
