LTC4100EG#TRPBF

LTC4100 is a smart battery charger is a single chip charging solution that dramatically simplifies construction of an SBS compliant system. It implements a level 2 charger function whereby the charger can be programmed by the battery or by the host. A safety signal on the battery being charged is monitored for temperature, connectivity and battery type information. The SMBus interface remains alive when the AC power adapter is removed and responds to all SMBus activity directed to it, including safety signal status (via the charger status command). The charger also provides an interrupt to the host whenever a status change is detected (e.g., battery removal, AC adapter connection). Charging current and voltage are restricted to chemistry specific limits for improved system safety and reliability. Limits are programmable by two external resistors. It is used in applications such as portable instruments and computers, data storage systems and battery backup servers etc.
