  Design Note 1008
  John Shannon
  Introduction
  Linear Technology offers a variety of devices that simplify
  converting power from a USB cable, but the LTCВ®3455
  represents the highest level of functional integration yet
  achieved. The LTC3455 seamlessly manages power flow
  between an AC adapter, USB cable and Li-ion battery,
  while complying with USB power standards, all from a
  4mm Г— 4mm QFN package. In addtion, two high efficiency
  synchronous buck converters generate low voltage rails
  which most USB-powered peripherals require. The
  LTC3455 also provides power-on reset signals for the
  microprocessor, a Hot SwapTM output for powering
  memory cards as well as an uncommitted gain block
  suitable for use as a low-battery comparator or an LDO
  controller. The PCB real estate required for the entire USB
  power control circuit and two DC/DC converters is only
  225mm2.
  The simplified block diagram of the LTC3455 in Figure 1
  shows the major components that allow the LTC3455 to
  accomplish multiple functions. The DC/DC conversion is …

  Introduction
  The quickest way to build an efficient
  power system for a battery-powered
  portable application is to use an
  IC that combines all power control
  functions into a single chip, namely a
  Power Management Integrated Circuit
  (PMIC). PMICs seamlessly manage
  power flow from various power sources
  (wall adapters, USB and batteries) to
  power loads (device systems and the
  charging battery), while maintaining
  current limits where required (such
  as that specified for USB). To this
  end, PMICs typically feature built-in
  PowerPathв„ў control, DC/DC conver-USB/WALL
