Abstract
A power conversion device includes: a semiconductor substrate; a plurality of controllers formed on the semiconductor substrate; two or more converter phases formed on the semiconductor substrate; two or more programmable components formed on the semiconductor substrate, each of the programmable components connected to a respective one of the two or more converter phases; and an interconnect circuit formed on the semiconductor substrate. The two or more programmable components are programmable to selectively couple the two or more converter phases to the plurality of controllers via the interconnect circuit.
