Abstract
A method of assembling a DC-DC converter includes: attaching first and second discrete power stage transistor dies to a first side of a substrate, the first discrete die including a high-side power transistor and the second discrete die including a low-side power transistor electrically connected to the high-side power transistor to form an output phase of the DC-DC converter; attaching an inductor to the first side of the substrate so as to electrically connect the output phase to a metal output trace on the substrate, the inductor partly covering at least one of the first and the second discrete power stage transistor dies such that each discrete power stage transistor die that is partly covered by the inductor comprises a plurality of pins that are not covered by the inductor; and visually inspecting the plurality of pins uncovered by the inductor.
