Pulsiv .modules, specifically Pulsiv OSMIUM technology, are receiving positive feedback for their efficiency, thermal performance, and ability to simplify power supply design, particularly in compact and heat-sensitive applications like USB-C chargers. They are also enabling smaller, lighter, and more cost-effective designs.
Here's a more detailed look:
Key Benefits:
High Efficiency:
Pulsiv OSMIUM achieves high peak (99.5%) and average (97.5%) front-end efficiency, with a flat efficiency profile across the load range.
Improved Thermal Performance:
Pulsiv's reference design for 65W USB-C demonstrates significantly reduced component temperatures, potentially enabling compact and heat-sensitive applications like in-wall USB-C sockets.
Reduced Component Count and Size:
The technology allows for smaller and lower voltage components, potentially leading to smaller overall power supply designs.
Eliminated Input Voltage Derating and Inrush Current:
Pulsiv OSMIUM addresses these common challenges in power supply design.
Simplified Design:
Pulsiv provides reference designs, standard assembled modules, and custom module options to simplify the design process for various applications.
Increased Flexibility:
The technology enables a single PSU to support multiple applications, previously requiring optimized PSUs.
Examples of Positive Feedback:
The PSMA Energy Management Committee recognized Pulsiv with the 2025 Global Energy Efficiency Award for its 65W USB-C reference design.
Salom, a leading consumer electronics PSU maker, is using Pulsiv OSMIUM MCUs in their new 150W PSU flyback platform and noted its high efficiency and flat efficiency profile.
Andy Richardson, Salom's VP of Business Development, highlighted that the technology delivers "an astonishing flat efficiency profile with no inrush current".
Astute Electronics, a distributor, expanded their partnership with Pulsiv, citing the technology's disruptive nature and their confidence in its potential.
Future Outlook:
Pulsiv is expanding its technology to a broader range of applications beyond USB-C, including solar and other power electronics.
The company is offering various deployment options, including reference designs, standard assembled modules, and custom modules.
Pulsiv expects to redefine the fast-charging space and is focused on delivering its technology to a wider customer base.
