Optimize battery life, save space and easily integrate power management in your compact mobile device or other embedded system. Our Power Management ICs (PMICs) combine multiple functions into a single device to reduce the component count and board space needed to easily and cost-effectively manage power in devices that are developed for the Internet of Things (IoT), consumer, medical, industrial, automotive and many other applications.
If you need an even more highly integrated solution, we offer a System-on-Module (SOM) that combines a PMIC with an industrial-grade microprocessor (MPU), along with other devices, to simplify your development and speed your time to market.
With the next generation of devices catering to edge technologies, the computational power needed for data gathering, processing, communication and running complex security algorithms is exponentially rising. All these requirements, when combined with the shrinking size of end electronics, present us with a unique challenge.
Designed to demonstrate a total systems solution, our wireless SOM combines our SAMA5D2 MPU, WILC3000 Wi-Fi®/Bluetooth® module and MCP16502 PMIC to provide an all-in-one device that you can use to expand your existing product features or fast track your new designs.
