Overview

Power Manager

  • High Efficiency Switching PowerPathController with Bat-Track Adaptive Output Control
  • Programmable USB or Wall Current Limit (100mA/500mA/1A)
  • Full Featured Li-Ion/Polymer Battery Charger
  • Instant-On Operation with a Discharged Battery
  • 1.5A Maximum Charge Current
  • Internal 180mΩ Ideal Diode Plus External Ideal Diode Controller Powers Load in Battery Mode
  • Low No-Load IQ when Powered from BAT (<30µA)

DC/DCs

  • Dual High Efficiency Buck DC/DCs (400mA/400mA IOUT
  • High Efficiency Buck-Boost DC/DC (1A IOUT)
  • All Regulators Operate at 2.25MHz
  • Dynamic Voltage Scaling on Two Buck Outputs
  • I2C Control of Enables, Mode, Two VOUT Settings 
  • ENALL Pin with Power-Up Sequence Control
  • Low No-Load Quiescent Current: 20µA Each

The LTC3556 is a highly integrated power management and battery charger IC for Li-Ion/Polymer battery applications. 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 current 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.

Applications

  • HDD-Based MP3 Players, PDAs, GPS, PMPs
  • Other USB-Based Handheld Products

EVAL-AD5676RARDZ

Evaluation Board for the AD5676R WLCSP

Features and Benefits

  • Full featured evaluation board for the AD5676R WLCSP
  • On-board or external power supply
  • On-board or external voltage reference
  • Arduino® Uno form-factor, mates with SDP-K1
  • PC control via Analysis | Control | Evaluation (ACE) Software

Product Details

The EVAL-AD5676RARDZ allows users to quickly prototype AD5676R circuits and reduce design time. The AD5676R operates from a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply. The AD5676R incorporates an internal 2.5 V reference to give a full-scale output voltage of 2.5 V or 5 V. An ADR4525 is also provided on-board as a 2.5V reference source. A different external reference voltage can be applied via the EXT_REF SMB connector or test pin if needed.

The EVAL-AD5676RARDZ interfaces to the USB port of a PC via a system demonstration platform board (SDP-K1 ). The Analysis | Control | Evaluation (ACE) software is available for download from the EVAL-AD5676RARDZ product page to use with the evaluation board to allow the user to program the AD5676R. A peripheral module interface (PMOD) connection is also available to allow the connection of microcontrollers to the evaluation board without the SDP-K1 board. When a microcontroller is used through the PMOD connection, the SDP-K1 board must be disconnected, and the user is unable to operate the ACE software.

The EVAL-AD5676RARDZ is compatible with the EVAL-SDP-CK1Z (SDP-K1), which should be purchased separately. A typical connection between the EVAL-AD5676RARDZ and the SDP-B controller board is shown in the user guide. For full details, see the AD5676R data sheet, which must be used in conjunction with the user guide when using the EVAL-AD5676RARDZ.
