ACT8740  -  Six Channel Integrated Power Management IC for Handheld Portable Equipment   -  Active Semi  -  Power Management

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The patent-pending ACT8740 is a complete, cost effective, highly-efficient ActivePMUTM power management solution that is ideal for a wide range of portable handheld equipment. This device integrates one PWM step-down DC/DC converter, one PWM step-up DC/DC converter with over-voltage protection (OVP), three low dropout linear regulators (LDOs) and a full-featured linear-mode Li+ battery charger into a single, thin, space-saving package. An I2C Serial Interface provides programmability for the DC/DC converters, LDOs and battery charger.
REG1 is a fixed-frequency, current-mode PWM step-down DC/DC converter that is optimized for high efficiency and is capable of supplying up to 350mA output current. REG2 is a fixed-frequency, step-up DC/DC converter that safely and efficiently biases a string of up to seven white-LEDs for backlighting. REG3, REG4, and REG5 are low noise, high PSRR linear regulators that are capable of supplying up to 350mA, 250mA, and 250mA, respectively. The battery charger incorporates an internal power MOSFET for constant-current/constant-voltage, thermally regulated charging of a single-cell Li+ battery. All DC/DC converters and LDOs output voltages are programmable and controllable via the I2C interface.
The ACT8740 is available in a tiny 4mm x 4mm 24-pin Thin-QFN package that is just 0.75mm thick.
