LTC3577-3/LTC3577-4
Highly Integrated
Portable Product PMIC
DESCRIPTION
The LTC
®
3577-3/LTC3577-4 are highly integrated power
management ICs for single cell Li-Ion/Polymer battery ap-
plications. It includes a PowerPath manager with automatic
load prioritization, a battery charger, an ideal diode, input
overvoltage protection and numerous other internal pro-
tection features. The LTC3577-3/LTC3577-4 are designed
to accurately charge from current limited supplies such as
USB by automatically reducing charge current such that
the sum of the load current and the charge current does
not exceed the programmed input current limit (100mA or
500mA modes). The LTC3577-3/LTC3577-4 reduce the bat-
tery voltage at elevated temperatures to improve safety and
reliability. The three step-down switching regulators and
two LDOs provide a wide range of available supplies. The
LTC3577-3/LTC3577-4 also include a pushbutton input to
control power sequencing and system reset. The onboard
LED backlight boost circuitry can drive up to 10 series
LEDs and includes versatile digital dimming via the I
2
C
input. The LTC3577-3/LTC3577-4 are designed to support
the SiRF Atlas IV processor and has pushbutton timing
and sequencing different from other LTC3577 versions.
The LTC3577-3/LTC3577-4 are available in a low profile
