# PM8150B and parallel charging solution

Source: [https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-PV086-5P/topic/pm8150b-and-parallel-charging-solution.html](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-PV086-5P/topic/pm8150b-and-parallel-charging-solution.html)

The PM8150B provides best-in-class charging performance while integrating many related functions.

- 12 V charger (28 V over voltage protection (OVP)) supports up to 10 A multipath charge
        current
- Qualcomm® Quick Charge™ 2, Quick Charge 3, Quick Charge 4 + USB PD support
- Type-C detection and 20 V CC/SBU pin protection
- 3 A USB host mode support
- Improved hardware fuel gauge
- Qnovo pulse engine support

The SMB1390 features are listed below:
- 2:1 switched capacitor converter for high current, low profile Li+ battery charging and
          voltage regulation
- Master/slave mode to minimize input current ripple and support 10 A battery charging
          with low dissipation power
- PM8150B can pair with SMB1355 and/or SMB1390 for parallel charging
