MAX8922L

19-4929; Rev 0; 9/09 30V Li+ Linear Battery Charger with GSM Test Mode in 3mm x 2mm TDFN General Description The MAX8922L linear battery charger safely charges a single-cell lithium-ion (Li+) battery. Charging rate is optimized to accommodate the thermal characteristics of a given application. There is no need to reduce the maximum charge current at the worst-case charger power dissipation. Charging is optimized for a single Li+ cell using a control algorithm that includes low-battery precharging, voltage and current-limited fast charging, and top-off charging, while continuously monitoring for input overvoltage and device die-temperature conditions. The fast-charge current and top-off current thresholds are programmable by a simple 1-Wire® serial interface. The charger status and valid input power are indicated by two open-drain outputs (CHG and POK). The fast-charge current is defaulted to 400mA and programmable through the 1-Wire interface (EN/SET). The MAX8922L also can be programmable to GSM test mode through the 1-Wire interface. The MAX8922L is available in a tiny (3mm x 2mm x 0.8mm) 10-pin TDFN package.
