High-Efficiency, Low-IQ, PMICs with Dynamic Voltage Management for Mobile Applications
General Description
The MAX8660/MAX8661 power management ICs (PMICs) power Intel XScale® applications processors in smart cellular phones, PDAs, Internet appliances, and other portable devices. Four step-down DC-DC outputs, three linear regulators, and an 8th always-on LDO are integrated with powermanagement functions. Two dynamically controlled DCDC outputs power the processor core and internal memory. Two other DC-DC converters power I/O, memory, and other peripherals. Additional functions include on/off control for outputs, low-battery detection, reset output, and a 2-wire I2C† serial interface.
