MAX1587A (2)

Six Integrated Regulators in One Package: The MAX1586/MAX1587 integrates six regulators, including step-down DC-DC converters and LDOs, enabling efficient power management for multiple subsystems (e.g., I/O, memory, core, SRAM, PLL, and USIM). This reduces the need for external components, saving board space and simplifying design for handheld devices like smartphones and PDAs.
Low Operating Current for Extended Battery Life: With operating currents as low as 60µA in sleep mode and 5µA in shutdown, these PMICs significantly enhance battery life in portable devices, making them ideal for power-sensitive applications such as smart cell phones and wireless handhelds.
Optimized for Intel XScale Processors: The PMICs are specifically designed to support Intel XScale microprocessors, ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance in devices requiring high computing and multimedia capabilities, such as internet appliances and third-generation smart cell phones.
1MHz PWM Switching for Compact Designs: The high 1MHz switching frequency allows the use of smaller external components, reducing the overall footprint of the power management solution and enabling more compact and lightweight portable devices.
Backup-Battery Input for Reliable Operation: The inclusion of a backup-battery input ensures uninterrupted power supply during main battery failure, enhancing reliability in critical applications like PDAs and wireless handhelds.
