Power Management ICs for Processors

NXP PMICs are designed to support the demands of powering application processors with a single-chip solution

NXP offers power management integrated circuits (PMICs) for various families of their i.MX applications processors to optimize power efficiency and software/hardware integration. These PMICs integrate both switching and linear regulators required for a total system solution. They may also integrate battery management functions that include a switching or linear battery charger, a coulomb counter, coin cell charger, and power path selection.

These PMICs are supported as part of the complete i.MX reference design platforms, which include hardware and software solutions. This provides one-stop customer service and support during the development phase to enable a faster time to market.
