MPS-SEMI
Analog ICs and power management
About the manufacturer
Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) is a US power-management semiconductor manufacturer founded in 1997 by engineer Michael Hsing. Its development was built around the idea of integrating complete power-conversion functions into compact integrated circuits. The company specialises in high-efficiency converters, regulators, controllers and power modules used in industry, automotive systems, data centres and consumer electronics. Its devices are supported by engineering software and tools for power-system design.
The main technical solutions associated with MPS-SEMI include integrated DC/DC converters, voltage regulators and motor-driver ICs. Analog integrated circuits handle voltage regulation, signal amplification, sensing and power control. Combining analog blocks with monitoring functions can reduce external component count and simplify electronic modules. Stable operation over the real temperature and load range remains essential.
Applications
MPS-SEMI solutions are relevant to applications where component characteristics must be matched to the final equipment:
- embedded power supplies
- data acquisition
- measurement equipment
- industrial automation
- consumer electronics
- control and monitoring
