nPM1100 eval

[David]

Hello,

I need a PMIC for a lithium polymer rechargeable battery solution.

The nPM1100 from Nordic is interesting, but I see there is a cap on the output current available at 150mA, I'm using the nrf9160 which requires up to 600mA when transmitting or using GPS.

Are my finding correct, or is the nPM1100 suitable for this solution, regarding the current consumption of the nRF9160 SiP?

Appreciate any other advice on PMIC/IC for this type of solution.

Correct, unfortuanly we do not have a PMIC atm that fits the power requirements of the nRF9160.
