With integrated FETs and a high level of logic on-chip, the SM58IP04 is specifically designed for high efficiency and integration to deliver up to 65 W of power in the smallest form factor as follows:

• Reduces the PCB surface area by more than 50% and the Z-height profile to less than 1.2 mm;
• Achieves up to 95% efficiency while in both buck- or boost-mode charging the battery up to 6 A due to advanced thermal management;
• Supports both Direct and Parallel Charging, Intel (News - Alert) IMVP8 and Cell Balancing while integrating multiple currents and voltages sensing and OVP features.

"We are extremely satisfied with the traction of SM58IP04 in computing and power bank applications where the product has been proven to be very effective in delivering great performance and cost saving," said Gianfranco Scherini, VP of Business Development of Silicon Mitus based in Cupertino, California. "Leveraging our experience in integrating complex analog and digital functions in a single IC, typical of the mobile industry, we deliver the first product that combines the features of a multi-cell battery charger with the full support of the USB Type-C and PD specification."
