Power-efficient performance

Reducing power needs while meeting growing performance requirements is a concern for designers of camera systems. An integrated power-management integrated circuit (PMIC) dedicated to a specific system-on-chip or image sensor can reduce component count and system size while increasing efficiency and thermal performance. Our programmable power-management integrated circuits can help you limit noise and maintain power density in camera system designs while meeting International Organization for Standardization 26262 standards up to Automotive Safety Integrity Level D.
