STACKED SCALABLE VOLTAGE REGULATOR MODULE FOR PLATFORM AREA MINIATURIZATION

Abstract:

The present disclosure generally relates to a scalable computer circuit board having a first power level semiconductor package coupled to at least one base-level voltage regulator module, which is coupled to a plurality of connection receptacles that are configured for connecting with a voltage regulator module positioned on a second level, as a standardized base unit. To scale the base unit, a second power level semiconductor package may be exchanged for the first power level semiconductor package in conjunction with one or more voltage regulator module board being positioned over a corresponding number of base-level voltage regulator modules and coupled to their plurality of connection receptacles.
