Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9526064A1] On a printed circuit board (100), which contains a number of ICs (110) that require different voltage levels to operate, an IC package (400) that can be plugged into a standard IC socket (115) is utilized. IC package (400) contains voltage regulator (402) and capacitors (403) to convert the supply voltage at power plane (120) to the voltage level required by IC (401).
