However, digital PWM is limited by it's phases, meaning if a digital solution has however many phases to deliver however many amps to the cpu, it will deliver up to that much and absolutely no more. An analogue solution is much more flexible and can generally extend far beyond the power requirements it was originally designed for. Again though, when pushing an analogue solution like this to it's max, you're running the risk of blowing a capacitor or suffering serious voltage fluctuations.

Digital in the end I would say is better because of it's accuracy and space saving. As for it's thermal characteristics, it should get better, especially if board designers decide to go even more overkill with the phases.
This is very funny, you are know nothing about it! Digital PWM is only marketing phrase for noobs! Coils cannot to be digital or analogue! In that "digital PWM" is only few coils in one case, there is nothing digital on that coils ... Only one think is better - place savings ...
