Rev 4, 01-Oct-09
Eight Channel ActivePathTM Power Management IC
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
• ActivePathTM Li+ Charger with System Power
The patent-pending ACT8810 is a complete, cost effect
tive, highly-efficient ActivePMUTM power management
solution that is ideal for a wide range of high
performance portable handheld applications such as
personal navigation devices (PNDs). This device
integrates the ActivePathTM complete battery charging
and management system with six power supply
channels.
Selection
• Six Integrated Regulators
− 1.3A High Efficiency Step-Down DC/DC
− 1.0A High Efficiency Step-Down DC/DC
− 0.55A High Efficiency Step-Down DC/DC
− 2×360mA Low Noise, High PSRR LDOs
− 30mA RTC LDO / Backup Battery Charger
The ActivePath architecture automatically selects the
best available input supply for the system. If the
external input source is not present or the system load
current is more than the input source can provide, the
ActivePath supplies additional current from the battery
to the system. The charger is a complete, thermally-
regulated, stand-alone single-cell linear Li+ charger
that incorporates an internal power MOSFET.
• I2CTM Serial Interface
• Minimal External Components
• Compatible with USB or AC-Adapter
Charging
• 5mm × 5mm, Thin-QFN (TQFN55-40) Package
− Only 0.75mm Height
− RoHS Compliant
REG1, REG2, and REG3 are three independent,
fixed-frequency, current-mode step-down DC/DC
converters that output 1.3A, 1.0A, and 0.55A,
respectively. REG4 and REG5 are high performance,
low-noise, low-dropout linear regulators that output
up to 360mA each. REG6 is a RTC LDO that
outputs up to 30mA for a real time clock. Finally, an
I2C serial interface provides programmability for the
DC/DC converters and LDOs.
APPLICATIONS
• Personal Navigation Devices
• Portable Media Players
• Smart Phones
The ACT8810 is available in a tiny 5mm x 5mm 40-
pin Thin-QFN package that is just 0.75mm thin.
