High Efficiency USB Power
Manager with Dual Buck
and Buck-Boost DC/DCs
DESCRIPTION
The LTC
®
3556 is a highly integrated power management
and battery charger IC for Li-Ion/Polymer battery applica-
tions. It includes a high efficiency current limited switching
PowerPath manager with automatic load prioritization, a
battery charger, an ideal diode, and three synchronous
switching regulators (two bucks and one buck-boost).
Designed specifically for USB applications, the LTC3556’s
switching power manager automatically limits input cur-
rent to a maximum of either 100mA or 500mA for USB
applications or 1A for adapter-powered applications.
The LTC3556’s switching input stage transmits nearly all of
the 2.5W available from the USB port to the system load
with minimal power wasted as heat. This feature allows
the LTC3556 to provide more power to the application and
eases the constraint of thermal budgeting in small spaces.
The two buck regulators can provide up to 400mA each
and the buck-boost can deliver 1A.
The LTC3556 is available in the low profile 28-pin (4mm
×
5mm
×
0.75mm) QFN surface mount package.
