High Input Voltage 1.2A Charger for Single-cell Li-Ion Batteries
34673
The MC34673 is a cost-effective fully-integrated battery charger for Li-Ion or Li-Polymer batteries. The high input voltage, up to 28V, eliminates the input over-voltage protection circuit required in handheld devices such as PDAs, cell phones, portable video game players and digital still cameras.
A typical charge cycle includes trickle, constant-current (CC) and constant-voltage (CV) charge modes. The CC-mode current is programmable up to 1.2A with an external resistor. The voltage across the external resistor is also used to monitor the actual charge current. The constant voltage is fixed at 4.2V with 0.
