Not Recommended for New Designs

High efficiency for small form factor adapters
The iW1788 is a highly integrated AC/DC off-line power supply controller designed to be compatible with MediaTek’s Pump Express™ Plus fast charge protocol for smartphones and tablets. The iW1788 is a single-chip solution for output power up to 36W that uses Dialog’s intelligent Rapid Charge™ digital algorithm and digital PrimAccurate™ primary-side control to significantly reduce charge times in USB AC/DC power adapters.
The iW1788 is highly efficient, and offers no-load standby power < 30mW, meeting the US Department of Energy’s external power supply efficiency requirements and Version 5, Tier 2 of the EU’s Code of Conduct for external power supplies. The iW1788 also offers a full array of protection features including overvoltage, short circuit and over-temperature protection.


MediaTek’s Pump Express Plus protocol enables up to 45% faster charging times (compared to conventional chargers) for smartphones and media tablets. The iW1788 uses Dialog’s intelligent Rapid Charge™ technology, enabling adapters that can scale the output voltage from 3.6V to 12V to optimize charging times for high capacity batteries.
The iW1788 also incorporates Dialog's SmartDefender™ smart hiccup technology to help address soft short circuits in cables and connectors. Learn more about SmartDefender smart hiccup technology here.
For 5.0W – 7.5W output power MediaTek Pump Express-compatible controller, see iW1680.
