TI welcomes Ericsson to power alliance
Ericsson Power Modules is to become the newest member of the Point of Load Alliance (POLA), an alliance formed by TI, Emerson's Astec Power and Artesyn in 2003
Designed to offer customers pin-compatible footprints that provide the same functionality and form factors, members of the POLA alliance manufacture products with the same electrical designs to ensure full interoperability and true second sourcing. The first generation of POLA plug-in power modules, available today in volume production, is based on the PTHxx series with Auto-Track sequencing, introduced by TI in May 2003.
