INTRODUCTION
The MCP73830L 2x2 TDFN Li-Ion Battery Charger Evaluation Board demonstrates the
features and abilities of Microchip’s MCP73830L Single-Chip Linear Li-Ion Battery
Charger. The MCP73830L is a stand-alone, highly integrated linear battery charge
management controller that employs a constant current / constant voltage (CCCV)
charge algorithm with selectable preconditioning and charge termination. The charge
algorithm is provided for Li-Ion / Li-Polymer battery packs to achieve optimal capacity
in the shortest charging time possible.
The MCP73830L uses an external resistor (R
PROG
) to set the magnitude of the charge
current up to a maximum of 200 mA.
