By taking a real-time systems approach to power management, Packet Digital
developed PowerSage™, a family of intelligent integrated circuits that
monitor entire systems and distribute power only when needed by using dynamic
frequency and voltage scaling. PowerSage circuits are fully programmable
power management devices with digitally programmable precision Reconfigurable
Voltage Regulators (RVRs), and digitally programmable precision clock sources
in single, miniaturized packages with excellent AC performance and very low
current requirements. PowerSage circuits are ideal for battery powered and
wireless devices requiring very economical use of power sources. PowerSage
circuits also provide advanced power management controllers that allow for
fully autonomous control of the voltage and clock outputs based on real time
system requirements.
