MAX20310
Ultra-Low Quiescent Current PMIC with
SIMO Buck-Boost for Wearable Applications
General Description
The MAX20310 is a compact power management
integrated circuit (PMIC) for space-constrained, battery-
powered applications where size and efficiency are critical.
The device combines two single inductor, multiple output
(SIMO) buck-boosted outputs with two LDOs and other sys-
tem power management features like a push-button monitor
and sequencing controller.
The device includes a SIMO buck-boost switching regula-
tor that provides two programmable voltage rails using
a single inductor, minimizing solution footprint. The
MAX20310 operates with battery voltages down to 0.7V
for use with Zinc Air, Silver Oxide, or Alkaline batteries.
The architecture allows for output voltages above or
below the battery voltage.
Additionally, the MAX20310 has two programmable low-
dropout (LDO) linear regulators. The linear regulators can
also operate as power switches that can disconnect the
quiescent load of system peripherals.
The MAX20310 includes a programmable power
controller that allows the device to be configured for
use in applications that require a true off state or for
always-on applications. This controller provides a delayed
reset signal, voltage sequencing, and customized button
timing for on/off control and recovery hard reset.
The device also features a multiplexer for monitoring the
power inputs and outputs of each function. The MAX20310
is available in a 16-bump 0.4mm pitch 1.63mm x 1.63mm
wafer-level package (WLP) and operates over the -40°C
to +85°C extended temperature range.
