In this paper, a non-isolated multiphase VRM with integrated coupled magnetic is introduced to improve steady and dynamic performances. All these magnetic components can be coupled into one single ferrite core shape to reduce the size. By properly designing the gap and coupling coefficient of integrated coupled-inductor, this novel technique can greatly improve the performances of VRM with faster transient response and higher efficiency. The Matlab simulation and prototype experimental results of two-phase VRM show that integrated coupled inductor can improve steady and dynamic performance compared with the conventional non-coupled VRM. Keywords: Voltage regulator module (VRM), integrated coupled magnetic path, multiphase buck converters the phase shift control between different channels, 1 Introduction
