Advanced Information―All Information Subject to Change
Six Channel Integrated Power Management IC
for Handheld Portable Equipment
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
• Multiple Patents Pending
• Six Integrated Regulators
The patent-pending ACT8798 is a complete, costeffective, highly-efficient ActivePMUTM power management solution that is ideal for a wide range of
portable handheld equipment. This device integrates three step-down DC/DC converters and
three low dropout linear regulators (LDOs) into a
single, thin, space-saving package. An I2C Serial
Interface provides programmability for the DC/DC
converters and LDOs.
− 1.2A PWM Step-Down DC/DC
− 1.2A PWM Step-Down DC/DC
− 750mA PWM Step-Down DC/DC
− 250mA Low Noise LDO
− 250mA Low Noise LDO
− 250mA Low Noise LDO
• I2CTM Compatible Serial Interface
REG1, REG2 and REG3 are fixed-frequency, current-mode PWM step-down DC/DC converters that
are optimized for high efficiency and are capable of
supplying up to 1.2A, 1.2A and 750mA, respectively. REG4, REG5 and REG6 are low noise, high
PSRR linear regulators that are capable of supplying up to 250mA each.
− Programmable Output Voltages
− Configurable Operating Modes
• Minimal External Components
• 4x4mm, Thin-QFN (TQFN44-24) Package
− Only 0.75mm Height
− RoHS Compliant
The ACT8798 is available in a tiny 4mm x 4mm
24-pin Thin-QFN package that is just 0.75mm thin.
APPLICATIONS
• Portable Devices and PDAs
• Wireless Handhelds
• DMB Enabled Devices
• GPS Receivers, etc.
