Battery charger IC for 2-4 cell Li-Ion packs
It integrates over-current, over-temperature, over-voltage, and short-circuit fault protection for safe charging in industrial and portable equipment.
10 A charge current and thermal design
The 10 A maximum charge current sets the power-stage requirements: the external MOSFETs, inductor, and sense resistor must be sized for continuous 10 A with headroom. Supply voltage is rated up to 24 V, covering common adapter rails for 2-4 cell packs. The constant-current charging mode is programmable via an external resistor.
