  • Description

    The LP3910 is a programmable system power management unit that is optimized for HDD-based Portable Media Players.

    The LP3910 incorporates 2 low-dropout LDO voltage regulators, 2 integrated Buck DC/DC converters with Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS), 1 wide load range Buck-Boost DC/DC converter with programmable output voltage, a 4-channel 8-bit A/D converter and a dual source Li-Ion/polymer battery charger. The charger has the capability to charge and maintain a single cell battery from a regulated wall adapter or USB power. When both USB and adapter sources are present, then the adapter source takes precedence and switching between USB and adapter power sources is seamless. In addition, the battery charger supports power routing, which allows system usage immediately after an external power source has been detected. The LP3910 also incorporates some advanced battery management functions such as battery temperature measurement, reverse current blocking for USB, LED charger status indication, thermally regulated internal power FETs, battery voltage monitoring, over-current protection and a 10 hour safety timer.

    The Buck-Boost DC/DC converter targets the power management of Hard Disk Drives and maintains a typical operating voltage of 3.3V ±5% with a battery voltage below or above this output level. The Buck-Boost output voltage can be selected to be as low as 1.8V.

    The 4-channel A/D converter measures the battery voltage and charge current, which can be used for fuel gauging. Two undedicated channels can be used to measure other analog parameters such as discharge current, battery temperature, keyboard resistor scanning and more.

    The various IC parameters are programmable through a 400 kHz I 2C-compatible interface.

    The LP3910 is available in a thermally-enhanced 6x6x0.8 mm 48-pin LLP package and operates over an ambient temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.
