MaxLinear, Inc. announced the release of MXL76125, a 15 Amp Step-Down Switching regulator with 2-Bit VID designed and qualified to provide power to the digital core of MaxLinear’s Wi-Fi 7 SoCs. With this release, MaxLinear further leverages its extensive power management expertise to provide solutions that simplify system architecture.
With the integration of a 2-Bit VID into the MXL76125, the Wi-Fi 7 SoC can communicate to the power supply, adjusting its core voltage depending on the power needs of the system. This level of system operability across MaxLinear chipsets allows end users to implement power savings modes and meet stringent market requirements without additional cost or complexity.
Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) and enterprise networking manufacturers face significant challenges during Wi-Fi FCC qualification testing in designing and building Wi-Fi 7-enabled home gateways and wireless networks. One key example is passing Wi-Fi FCC qualification where the quality of power delivery can directly impact the results. The MXL76125 has been designed to meet the needs of MaxLinear Wi-Fi 7 SoCs, the MXL31712 and MXL31708, providing a fast and stable power supply with low noise. By offering a complete and proven solution, customers can be assured that the power delivery is optimized for their system needs.
