PMIC - Battery Chargers

1. Overview

Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMIC) with Battery Charger functionality are specialized semiconductor devices that manage power distribution and battery charging processes in electronic systems. These ICs integrate charging algorithms, safety protections, and power path management to optimize energy efficiency and battery lifespan. Their importance in modern technology lies in enabling compact, high-efficiency power solutions for portable electronics, electric vehicles, and IoT devices.

2. Main Types and Functional Classification

Type	Functional Characteristics	Application Examples
Linear Battery Chargers	Simple topology, low noise, limited efficiency (typically <70%)	Wearable devices, low-power sensors
Switch-Mode Battery Chargers	High efficiency (>90%), supports fast charging protocols	Smartphones, laptops, drones
Multi-Protocol Chargers	Supports USB PD, QC, and proprietary fast charging standards	Universal adapters, power banks
Wireless Battery Chargers	Integrates magnetic induction control and foreign object detection	Smartphones, electric toothbrushes

3. Structure and Components

Typical physical structure includes:

QFN/DFN package (3x3mm to 5x5mm size range)
Internal modules:
- Voltage/current regulation circuits
- Charging algorithm controller (CC-CV, pulsed charging)
- Thermal management unit
- Power MOSFETs (for switch-mode types)
- Communication interface (I2C/SPI for parameter configuration)

4. Key Technical Specifications

Parameter	Typical Range	Importance
Charging Current	100mA-5A	Determines charge time and battery capacity
