Maxim Integrated Virtual Booth at electronica 2020 Webinar Series - Mobile Power
Maxim Integrated is excited to host a series of mobile power-focused webinars corresponding with our virtual booth during the electronica 2020 event.
Starting on Tuesday, November 3, we'll host a wide variety of webinars, presented by our team of experts. Check them out here, and register for as many as you'd like!
This demo, featuring NVidia's Jetson™, shows how a computationally-intensive object recognition platform can be powered by Maxim’s high-performance PMIC solution. Learn how to drive your highest energy efficient power needs for the next wave of embedded IoT applications.
Date: Thursday, November 5, 2020
Time: 9:00 AM CET / 12:00 AM PST
Speaker: Gaurav Mital
Gaurav is the power architect for high performance, computation-intensive PMICs for AI/machine learning platforms and low-power PMIC product line for wearables and hearables platforms at Maxim Integrated. He started his career as an analog power design engineer and has worked in the semiconductor industry for over 15 years on a wide range of mobile power products. He has an M.S. degree in EEE from California State University.
Accurate battery state-of-charge (SOC), long runtime and shelf life, and safety are critical considerations when developing highly reliable Li+ battery-powered portable devices. This webinar explores how to address these challenges using one of Maxim’s latest highly integrated fuel gauges. By implementing the ModelGauge™ m5 EZ algorithm, this fuel gauge eliminates battery characterization for most popular Li+ cells, greatly improving time-to-market. The algorithm leads to an accurate prediction of SOC that improves the user experience as well as enhanced safety across a wide range of benign and harsh operating conditions. Furthermore, the low quiescent current of the IC allows for longer shelf life and longer run-time. Integration of fuel gauge, protection control, and authentication enhances safety and minimizes the bill-of-materials (BOM) and PCB area.

Speaker: Bakul Damle
Bakul Damle is a Business Director at Maxim Integrated, responsible for the battery management product line. His current interests include battery and power management such as fuel gauges, battery safety, protection, and authentication, wireless and USB Type-C/Power Delivery battery chargers. He joined Maxim in 2005 and is based in Dallas, Texas. Prior to Maxim, Bakul managed an engineering team at National Instruments in Austin, developing high-resolution computer-based instruments, and at Digitronics in Pune, India, in the area of power conversion. He holds a Master of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from California Institute of Technology and a Bachelor of Technology in Engineering Physics from the Indian Institute of Technology. Bakul has several patents in the area of test and measurement.
This demo is an “on-the-go” gaming platform that features Maxim’s low-power SIMO PMIC and sensors. It highlights the low-power PMIC’s small solution size, high efficiency, and low ripple features, which are critical when deciding on the design of power circuitry.

Speakers: Gaurav Mital and Astha Adhikari
Gaurav is the power architect for high performance, computation-intensive PMICs for AI/machine learning platforms and low-power PMIC product line for wearables and hearables platforms at Maxim Integrated. He started his career as an analog power design engineer and has worked in the semiconductor industry for over 15 years on a wide range of mobile power products. He has an M.S. degree in EEE from California State University.
Astha Adhikari is a multi-function power solutions intern at Maxim Integrated. She is getting her Master’s in Electrical Engineering at California Polytechnic University, San Luis Obispo. Her Master’s thesis covers stability analysis for a multiple input single output DC-DC converter. Her areas of interest are power electronics and controls systems.
The convenience of a smaller, reversible connector makes USB-C attractive for charging and powering portable devices, including those that traditionally used AC-DC barrel adapters. Advanced features like 5G and 4k displays in portable devices are driving up power consumption over 15W, and higher battery capacities are needed to support longer runtimes. For these gadgets, USB Power Delivery (PD) enables fast charging that gets these products back in operation with little downtime. For designers, however, compliance with the USB-C and USB PD standard typically requires complex firmware development and additional hardware components. This webinar examines how Maxim’s USB-C chargers and out-of-the-box compliant, standalone USB PD controllers reduce development time by eliminating complex firmware and minimize the solution size through greater integration and high performance.
Some attendees may receive a free evaluation kit at Maxim Integrated’s discretion.
