Abstract
In this paper, a proposed through silicon via (TSV) structure is used to construct AC-DC converters. This structure is analyzed using 3D electromagnetic full-wave simulators. The results show that the proposed 3D converter exhibits small area with superior performance compared to a 2D transformer, for the same footprint as lossy substrate effects are neglected for low frequency range of interest for DC converters.
