Abstract
Embedded PCB (printed circuit board) is used for the packaging and assembly of a low profile power conversion system module that can be employed in space constrained environment of small computer/electronic systems. The low profile power conversion system module includes an embedded PCB, a power silicon device embedded within the PCB, a magnetic component which is either embedded within the PCB or disposed on the PCB, and input/output terminals disposed on the side of the embedded PCB. The embedded PCB and the magnetic component are thin planar shaped to save vertical space. The low profile power conversion system module can be placed inside a cavity formed in the system PCB to save even more vertical space.
