LM3420 Overview
The LM3420 series of controllers are monolithic integrated circuits designed for charging and end-ofcharge control for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. The LM3420 is available in an 8.4-V version for one through four cell charger applications. Included in a very small package is an (internally pensated) op amp, a bandgap reference, an NPN output transistor, and voltage setting resistors.
