Single-chip power management integrated circuit reduces design complexity

MOUSER Electronics is now stocking the PF3000 Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) from Freescale Semiconductor, ideal for IoT applications.

The PF3000 PMIC is a single-chip power management solution developed as a companion device to Freescale’s i.MX 7 series and i.MX 6SoloLite and i.MX 6SoloX series of application processors.

The PF3000 PMIC is capable of driving the core processor, external memory, and peripherals to help reduce design complexity and cost, while also providing the highest overall power efficiency possible. The PF3000 features four buck converters, six linear regulators, an RTC supply, and a coin-cell charger, and supports one-time programmable memory.

The PF3000 PMIC features a configurable architecture powered by SMARTMOS technology that supports numerous outputs with various current ratings, as well as programmable voltage and sequencing.

This functionality allows the chip to power not only the core processor, but also the peripherals and various types of system memory resources – all in an overall component solution size of less than 100 mm².

The PMIC also supports one-time programmable memory for controlling startup sequence and output voltages with no external components required. Light load efficiency is combined with user programmable Standby, Sleep/LPSR, and Off power modes.
