Scalable Power Delivery System - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240241571 titled 'Scalable Power Delivery System
Simplified Explanation: The power delivery system in a computer system uses multiple power converter circuits to generate different voltage levels on various power supply nodes. The system includes an input power converter circuit that generates a voltage level for use by host and follower power converter circuits. The host power converter circuit generates an external demand current shared by multiple follower power converter circuits to regulate the voltage level on the power supply nodes. The system can be adjusted for different computer system platforms by changing the number of follower power converter circuits.
