The LTC3586 integrates a switching PowerPath™ manager, a stand-alone battery charger, always-on LDO, and 4 high efficiency synchronous switching regulators: 1 buck-boost, 1 boost, and 2 buck regulators, all in a compact, low-profile 4mm x 6mm QFN package.
The LTC3586’s PowerPath control seamlessly manages power flow between multiple input sources such as a wall adapter or USB port and the Lithium battery while preferentially providing power to the system load.
The LTC3586’s buck-boost regulator can deliver up to 1A continuously and is ideal for efficiently regulating a 3.3V output over the full Lithium battery voltage range, down to 2.75V. The LTC3586’s two buck regulators feature 100% duty cycle operation and are capable of delivering output currents of 400mA each, with adjustable output voltages down to 0.8V.
The LTC3586’s internal low RDS(ON) switches enable switching buck and buck-boost efficiencies as high as 94%, maximizing battery run time.
The LTC3586 features USB-compatible programmable input current limiting to 100mA/500mA/1A, while its Bat-Track™ adaptive output control enables high efficiency battery charging with minimum power dissipation. To preserve battery energy, the LTC3586 draws only 44uA in suspend mode. The charger is compatible with inputs up to 5.5V (7V absolute maximum transient for added robustness).
