Abstract

The MAX77846, which is compatible with MAX77826, is a sub-power management IC (PMIC) for the latest Wearable Watch and 3G/4G smart phones. The MAX77846 contains N-MOSFET (N channel Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor), a high-efficiency regulator, and comparator, etc to power up peripherals. The MAX77846 also provides power on/off control logic for complete flexibility and an $I^2C$ (Inter Integrated Circuit) serial interface to program individual regulator output voltages. In this paper, the simplified power macro-model based on MAX77846 is designed to verify the performance of the battery voltage in terms of current and time, and simulated by using of the LTspice. In addition, it is verified how much time can the charged battery capacity for Samsung Galaxy Gear 2 be used to operate a specified function after measuring the currents flowing to carry out the main functions in real time, which will be applicable to design parameters for the advanced power module

MAX77846은 MAX77826과 호환해서 최신 웨어러블 시계와 3G/4G 스마트폰용의 전력모듈(PMIC)로 사용된다. MAX77846은 주변장치의 전력을 공급하기 위해 N 채널 MOSFET와 고효율의 레귤레이터, 비교기 등으로 구성되어 있다. 또한, 완전한 적용성과 각각의 레귤레이터 출력전압을 제공하기 위해 $I^2C$ 연산을 위해 전력 on/off 제어 로직을 제공한다. 이 논문에서 MAX77846을 기반으로 한 축약된 전력 매크로 모델을 전류와 시간에 대한 배터리 전압의 상태를 검증하기 위해 설계하고 LTspice로 시뮬레이션을 수행한다. Samsung Galaxy Gear 2 용 충전된 배터리 용량이 실시간으로 주요기능을 수행하는데 흐르는 전류를 측정한 후 특정한 기능을 수행하는데 사용가능한 시간을 검증하여 차세대 전력 모듈의 설계변수로 활용하는데 있다.
