Power Management IC

Hi, I'm building an IoT device as well this time and I was trying to get rid multiple ICs.
I found out about the Nordic power managent IC NPM1100.
It provides a battery charger, unregulated output and one buck converter.
That IC can easily replace at least 3 ICs(U1,U2,U3).
That can also create space for other usefull things on this small pcb.

Never mind, I realized later how much that wlcsp package will sky rocket the cost of the pcb. :(
But there will be a QFN-24 package, here you can see it listed.
Nordic recently posted about the availability of them on Linkedin.

Actually ~2.5 € is cheaper than the current components, so will make everything cheaper. But see my comment in the other discussion I posted. I think you accidentally created two.

It's not a huge difference but it's something and less things on board.
Yes, I've seen your reply. I was traveling and the signal was really bad the moment I posted this, so probaly something went wrong. Apologize :)

Yeah less stuff to mount, and more free space to put other new things :) But will be for later, QFN one is not in stock yet either.
