Six Channel ActivePathTM Power Management IC
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
 Six Functions Integrated Into One Package:
The patent-pending ACT8828 is a complete, cost
effective, 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 ActivePath complete battery charging and
management system with four power supply channels.
 ActivePath Li+ Charger and System Power
Selection
 1.3A High Efficiency Step-Down DC/DC
 1.0A High Efficiency Step-Down DC/DC
 0.55A High Efficiency Step-Down DC/DC
 30V Step-Up DC/DC for up to 7s × 3p WLEDs

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, thermallyregulated, 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
5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 is a fixed-frequency, step-up
DC/DC converter that safely and efficiently biases
strings of up to 7 white-LEDs (up to a total of 21
LEDs) for display backlight applications. Finally, an
I2C serial interface provides programmability for the
DC/DC converters.
APPLICATIONS
 Personal Navigation Devices
 Portable Media Players
 Smart Phones
Tiny 5mm × 5mm 40-pin Thin-QFN package that is
just 0.75mm thin.
