MCP164GX1000

The MCP164GX1000 is a custom-designed Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) specifically developed as a high-performance, small-footprint power companion for the Microchip 64-bit RISC-V® Quad-Core Microprocessor PIC64GX1000.

Making use of the on-board embedded EEPROM for default power-up configuration, the device is preprogrammed with the necessary configuration required by the PIC64GX1000. It is available in two memory architecture options: DDR4 (MCP164GX1000AB) and LPDDR4 (MCP164GX1000AA).

These options alleviate the production effort, simplifying the integration task of the PMIC into the design. The MCP164GX1000 also offers flexibility, allowing users to reprogram the IC, in-field or in-circuit, with any desired configuration using the integrated I2C bus, which supports clock rates up to 3.4 MHz. As a safety mechanism, the integrated EEPROM has protection against accidental write operations.
