The LTC®3589 is a complete power management solution for ARM and ARM-based processors and advanced
portable microprocessor systems. The device contains
three step-down DC/DC converters for core, memory and
SoC rails, a buck-boost regulator for I/O at 1.8V to 5V and
three 250mA LDO regulators for low noise analog supplies. An I2C serial port is used to control enables, output
voltage levels, dynamic voltage scaling, operating modes
and status reporting. Differences between the LTC3589,
LTC3589-1, and LTC3589-2 are summarized in Table 1.

Portable Industrial Devices
nn Automotive Infotainment
nn Medical Devices
nn High End Consumer Devices
nn Multirail Systems
nn Supports Freescale i.MX53/51, Marvell PXA and
Other Application Processors
Regulator start-up is sequenced by connecting outputs to
enable pins in the desired order or programmed via the
I2C port. System power-on, power-off, and reset functions
are controlled by pushbutton interface, pin inputs, or I2C
interface.
The LTC3589 supports i.MX53/51, PXA and OMAP processors with eight independent rails at appropriate power
levels. Other features include interface signals such as
the VSTB pin that simultaneously toggle up to four rails
between programmed run and standby output voltages.
The device is available in a low profile 40-pin 6mm × 6mm
exposed pad QFN package.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed Under Absolute Maximum ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: The LTC3589 are tested under pulsed load conditions such
that TJ ≈ TA. The LTC3589E are guaranteed to meet specifications from
0°C to 85°C junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C to
125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design,
characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. The
LTC3589I are guaranteed over the –40°C to 125°C operating junction
temperature range and the LTC3589H are guaranteed over the full
–40°C to 150°C operating junction temperature range. High junction
temperatures degrade operating lifetimes; operating lifetime is derated for
junction temperatures greater than 125°C. The junction temperature (TJ
in °C) is calculated from the ambient temperature (TA in °C) and power
dissipation (PD, in Watts) according to the formula:
TJ = TA + (PD • θJA), where the package junction to ambient thermal
impedance θJA = 33°C/W.

Note that the maximum ambient temperature consistent with these
specifications is determined by specific operating conditions in
conjunction with board layout, the rated package thermal impedance and
other environmental factors.
Note 3: The LTC3589 include overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 150°C when overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating temperature
may impair device reliability.
Note 4: Dropout voltage is defined as (VIN – VLDO) for LDO1 or
(VIN_LDO – VLDO) for other LDOs when VLDO is 3% lower than VLDO
measured with VIN = VIN_LDO = 4.3V.
Note 5: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
Note 6: Soft-start measured in test mode with regulator error amplifier in
unity gain mode.

Pin Functions
VIN_LDO2 (Pin 1): Power Input for LDO2. This pin should
be bypassed to ground with a 1µF or greater ceramic
capacitor.
LDO2 (Pin 2): Output Voltage of LDO2. Nominal output
voltage is set with a resistor feedback divider that servos to
an I2C register controlled DAC reference. This pin must be
bypassed to ground with a 1µF or greater ceramic capacitor.
LDO3 (Pin 3): Output Voltage of LDO3. Nominal output
voltage is fixed at 1.8V or 2.8V (LTC3589-1/LTC3589-2).
This pin must be bypassed to ground with a 1µF or greater
ceramic capacitor.
LDO4 (Pin 4): Output Voltage of LDO4. Output voltage is
selected via the I2C port. This pin must be bypassed to
ground with a 1µF or greater ceramic capacitor.
VIN_LDO34 (Pin 5): Power Input for LDO3 and LDO4. This
pin should be bypassed to ground with a 1µF or greater
ceramic capacitor.
PVIN1 (Pin 6): Power Input for Step-Down Switching
Regulator 1. Tie this pin to VIN supply. This pin should
be bypassed to ground with a 4.7µF or greater ceramic
capacitor.
SW1 (Pin 7): Switch Pin for Step-Down Switching
Regulator 1. Connect one side of step-down switching
regulator 1 inductor to this pin.
RSTO (Pin 8): Reset Output. Open-drain output pulls low
when the always-on regulator LDO1 is below regulation
and during a hard reset initiated by a pushbutton input.
EN_LDO2 (Pin 9): Enable LDO2 Logic Input. Active high
input to enable LDO2. A weak pull-down forces EN_LDO2
low when left floating.
EN1 (Pin 10): Enable Step-Down Switching Regulator 1.
Active high input to enable step-down switching
regulator 1. A weak pull-down forces EN1 low when left
floating.
EN2 (Pin 11): Enable Step-Down Switching Regulator 2.
Active high input to enable step-down switching
regulator 2. A weak pull-down forces EN2 low when left
floating.
SW4AB (Pin 12): Switch Pin for Buck-Boost Switching
Regulator 4. Connected to the buck-boost internal power
switches A and B. Connect an inductor between this pin
and SW4CD (Pin 19).
EN3 (Pin 13): Enable Step-Down Switching Regulator 3.
Active high input to enable step-down switching
regulator 3. A weak pull-down forces EN3 low when left
floating.
EN4 (Pin 14): Enable Buck-Boost Switching Regulator 4.
Active high input to enable buck-boost switching
regulator 4. A weak pull-down forces EN4 low when left
floating.
PVIN4 (Pin 15): Power Input for Switching Regulator 4.
Tie this pin to VIN supply. This pin should be bypassed to
ground with a 4.7µF or greater ceramic capacitor.
BB_OUT (Pin 16): Output Voltage of Buck-Boost Switching
Regulator 4. This pin must be bypassed to ground with a
22µF or greater ceramic capacitor.
IRQ (Pin 17): Interrupt Request Output. Open-drain
driver is pulled low for power good, undervoltage, and
overtemperature warning and fault conditions. Clear IRQ
by writing to the I2C CLIRQ command register.
EN_LDO34 (Pin 18): LTC3589 Enable LDO3 and LDO4
Logic Input. Active high to enable LDO3 and LDO4. Disable
LDO4 via I2C software commands using I2C command
registers OVEN or L2DTV2. A weak pull-down forces
EN_LDO34 low when left floating.
EN_LDO3 (Pin 18): LTC3589-1/LTC3589-2 Enable LDO3
Logic Input. Active high to enable LDO3. A weak pull-down
forces EN_LDO3 low when left floating.
SW4CD (Pin 19): Switch Pin for Buck-Boost Switching
Regulator 4. Connected to the buck-boost internal power
switches C and D. Connect an inductor between this node
and SW4AB (Pin 12).
PWR_ON (Pin 20): External Power-On. Handshaking pin
to acknowledge successful power-on sequence. PWR_ON
must be driven high within five seconds of WAKE going
high to keep power on. It can be used to activate the WAKE
output by driving high. Drive low to shut down WAKE.

LTC3589-2
PIN FUNCTIONS
ON (Pin 21): Pushbutton Input. A weak internal pullup forces ON high when left floating. A normally open
pushbutton is connected from ON to ground to force a
low state on this pin.
PBSTAT (Pin 22): Pushbutton Status. Open-drain output
to be used for processor interrupts. PBSTAT mirrors the
status of ON pushbutton pin. PBSTAT is delayed 50ms
from ON pin for debounce.
WAKE (Pin 23): System Wake Up. Open-drain driver output
releases high when signaled by pushbutton activation or
PWR_ON input. It may be used to initiate a pin-strapped
power-up sequence by connecting to a regulator enable pin.
PVIN2 (Pin 24): Power Input for Step-Down Switching
Regulator 2. Tie this pin to VIN supply. This pin should
be bypassed to ground with a 4.7µF or greater ceramic
capacitor.
SW2 (Pin 25): Switch Pin for Step-Down Switching
Regulator 2. Connect one side of step-down switching
regulator 2 inductor to this pin.
SW3 (Pin 26): Switch Pin for Step-Down Switching
Regulator 3. Connect one side of step-down switching
regulator 3 inductor to this pin.
DVDD (Pin 32): Supply Voltage for I2C Serial Port. This
pin sets the logic reference level of SCL and SDA I2C pins.
DVDD resets I2C registers to power on state when driven to
