ADP2291
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP2291 is a constant-current/constant-
voltage linear charger for a single-cell, lithium ion battery, requiring just a few components to provide a simple and safe charging system that operates from a wide 4.5 V to 12 V input
voltage range. It features an internally controlled, multistep charging cycle that improves battery life.
An external, low cost PNP provides the charging current to the battery, and an external resistor sets the maximum charge current. A small, external capacitor programs the maximum charge time. The controller includes an LED driver to indicate the battery charging status.
Safety features include charging stop mode for battery faults, output overshoot protection, and thermal shutdown. The ADP2291 also features auto...
