LTC3586/LTC3586-1
Introduction
The LTC3586/LTC3586-1 are highly integrated power
management ICs which include a high efficiency switch
mode PowerPath controller, a battery charger, an ideal
diode, an always-on LDO, two 400mA buck switching
regulators, a 1A buck-boost switching regulator, and an
800mA boost switching regulator. All of the regulators can
be independently controlled via ENABLE pins.
Designed specifically for USB applications, the PowerPath
controller incorporates a precision average input current
buck switching regulator to make maximum use of the
allowable USB power. Because power is conserved, the
LTC3586/LTC3586-1 allow the load current on V
exceed the current drawn by the USB port without exceed-
ing the USB load specifications.
The PowerPath switching regulator and battery charger
communicate to ensure that the input current never violates
the USB specifications.
The ideal diode from BAT to V
power is always available to V
or absent power at V
An always-on LDO provides a regulated 3.3V from avail-
able power at V
this LDO will be on at all times and can be used to supply
up to 20mA.
Along with constant frequency PWM mode, the buck and
the buck-boost switching regulators have a low power
burst mode setting for significantly reduced quiescent
current under light load conditions.
High Efficiency Switching PowerPath Controller
Whenever V
ing regulator is enabled, power is delivered from V

load (including switching regulators 1, 2, 3 and 4) and
the battery charger.
If the combined load does not exceed the PowerPath
switching regulator’s programmed input current limit, V
will track 0.3V above the battery (Bat-Track). By keeping

the voltage across the battery charger low, efficiency is
optimized because power lost to the linear battery char-
ger is minimized. Power available to the external load is
therefore optimized.
If the combined load at V
switching PowerPath supply to reach the programmed
input current limit, the battery charger will reduce its
charge current by that amount necessary to enable the
external load to be satisfied. Even if the battery charge
current is set to exceed the allowable USB current, the USB
specification will not be violated. The PowerPath switch-
ing regulator will limit the average input current so that
the USB specification is never violated. Furthermore, load
current at V
available power will be used to charge the battery.
If the voltage at BAT is below 3.3V, or the battery is not
present, and the load requirement does not cause the
PowerPath switching regulator to exceed the USB
specification, V

product to run immediately when power is applied without
waiting for the battery to charge. If the load exceeds the
current limit at V
voltage and slightly below the battery voltage, indicated
by the shaded region of Figure 1.
For very low-battery voltages, the battery charger acts like
a load and, due to limited input power, its current will tend
to pull V
V
automatically detects that V
battery charge as needed. This reduction ensures that load
current and output voltages are always priortized while
allowing as much battery charge current as possible. See
