Dynamic Voltage Scaling = A Complete Power Management Solution for
Advanced Application Processor-Based Systems
The LTC®3589/-1/-2 is a complete power management solution for portable processors such as NXP i.MX, PXA, ARM, OMAP
and other advanced portable microprocessor systems. The device features eight independent rails, with dynamic control and
sequencing, in a compact QFN package. These rails supply power to the processor core, SDRAM, system memory, PC cards,
always-on real-time clock (RTC) and a variety of other functions.
