Patent number: 11817725Abstract: A charger device includes a Single-Input-Multiple-Output (SIMO) device and a controller. The SIMO device includes a first transistor connected to an input and a first end of an inductor, a second transistor connected to ground and the first end of the inductor, a third transistor connected to a second end of the inductor and a first output, and a fourth transistor connected to the second end of the inductor and a second output. The controller is connected to the SIMO device and is configured to cause the SIMO device to charge the inductor using a first power source coupled to the input during a first time period and discharge the inductor to charge a second power source coupled to the first output during a second time period.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2021Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Maxim Integrated Products, Inc.Inventors: Cary Delano, Gaurav Mital, Taichi Hoshino

Patent number: 11728730Abstract: A power converter is disclosed. The power converter includes a Single-Input-Multiple-Output (SIMO) device includes a first transistor connected to an input and a first end of an inductor, a second transistor connected to a second end of the inductor and a first output, and a third transistor connected to the second end of the inductor and a second output. The power converter also includes a controller connected to the SIMO device and is configured to maintain a minimum inductor current through the inductor between charging cycles and to cause the minimum inductor current to transition to a charging inductor current during a charging cycle. The charging inductor current is based on a difference between an output voltage signal and a target voltage signal.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2022Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: Maxim Integrated Products, Inc.Inventors: Cary Delano, Gaurav Mital
