Product description

The MT6356W/A is an advanced PMIC designed for mobile applications, optimizing both power management and battery life. By integrating both DC-DC converters and LDO regulators, the MT6356W/A ensures that various components of the device receive the proper voltage, with minimal power loss. This reduces energy consumption and extends the battery life of mobile devices.

  • Efficient Power Regulation: The combination of DC-DC converters for high-power components and LDO regulators for low-power components provides an optimal solution for modern mobile devices. This ensures that the device operates efficiently, balancing power needs across different components.

  • Battery Charging Management: The MT6356W/A features advanced battery management capabilities, supporting fast charging to reduce downtime. By incorporating overvoltage, overcurrent, and thermal protection features, the PMIC ensures that the device is charged safely, preventing damage to the battery and other components during the charging process.

  • Thermal Protection: With thermal throttling, the MT6356W/A helps to manage device temperatures by reducing power to components that generate a lot of heat. If temperatures reach critical levels, the thermal shutdown feature powers down the system to protect the internal components and ensure device longevity.

  • Power Sequencing and Protection: The MT6356W/A features reliable power sequencing that ensures components are powered in the correct order during the startup process, preventing potential damage from instability. Additionally, protection mechanisms like overvoltage, overcurrent, undervoltage, and short-circuit protection safeguard the device from electrical faults that could result in component damage or device malfunction.

  • Battery Health Monitoring: By continuously monitoring the battery voltage, current, and temperature, the PMIC ensures that the battery operates efficiently and remains in good health, helping to prolong its lifespan and reduce the risk of issues like battery degradation over time.

  • I2C Communication: The I2C interface allows the system processor to communicate with the MT6356W/A in real time. This facilitates dynamic adjustments to power management settings based on the power requirements of different applications and activities, optimizing battery life and device performance.
