Maxim Integrated Products, Inc (NASDAQ: MXIM) announced the launch of the MAX77654 Single Inductor Multiple Output (SIMO) Power Management IC (PMIC), helping consumer product developers reduce solution size by 50% and extend battery life by 20%. This next-generation SIMO PMIC only uses a single inductor to provide three outputs, and the efficiency is as high as 91%, which is 16% higher than the traditional four-chip system. As the solution size is greatly reduced, compared with traditional power solutions, system designers can integrate more functions in wearable, ear-worn and other small-sized consumer products. MAX77654 is based on Maxim Integrated's high-reliability SIMO PMIC patented technology.
