7.3.1 Nano Scale Package

The LMZ20501 incorporates world class package technology to provide a 1-A power supply with a total volume of only 21 mm3 (excluding external components). All that is required for a complete power supply is the addition of feedback resistors to set the output voltage and the input and output filter capacitors. Figure 7-1 and Figure 7-2 show the LMZ20501 package. The regulator die is embedded into a PCB substrate while the power inductor is mounted on top. Vias and copper clad are used to make the connections to the die, inductor, and the external components. This package is MSL3-compliant.
