switch-mode battery chargers use an external PMOS
pass element step-down configuration. Charge current
is programmable, and an external capacitor sets the
maximum charge time.
Additional features include automatic input power
detection (ACON output), logic-controlled enable, and
temperature monitoring with an external thermistor. The
MAX1925 disables charging for inputs greater than
6.1V, while the MAX1926 charges for inputs between
4.25V and 12V.
The MAX1925/MAX1926 feature two precondition levels
to restore near-dead cells. The devices source 4mA to
a cell that is below 2V while sourcing C/10 to a cell
between 2V and 3V. Full charge current is then applied
above 3V. A CHG output drives an LED to indicate
charging (LED on) and fault conditions (LED blinking).
The MAX1925/MAX1926 are available in a 12-pin
4mm * 4mm thin QFN package and are specified over
the extended temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). An
evaluation kit is available to speed design.

Switch-Mode Lithium-Ion
Battery-Charger
The MAX745 provides all functions necessary for
charging lithium-ion (Li+) battery packs. It provides a
regulated charging current of up to 4A without getting
hot, and a regulated voltage with only ±0.75% total
error at the battery terminals. It uses low-cost, 1% resistors
to set the output voltage, and a low-cost N-channel
MOSFET as the power switch.

error at the battery terminals. It uses low-cost, 1% resistors
to set the output voltage, and a low-cost N-channel
MOSFET as the power switch.
The MAX745 regulates the voltage set point and charging
current using two loops that work together to transition
smoothly between voltage and current regulation.
The per-cell battery voltage regulation limit is set
between 4V and 4.4V using standard 1% resistors, and
then the number of cells is set from 1 to 4 by pin-strapping.
Total output voltage error is less than ±0.75%.
For a similar device with an SMBus™ microcontroller
interface and the ability to charge NiCd and NiMH cells,
refer to the MAX1647 and MAX1648. For a low-cost Li+
charger using a linear-regulator control scheme, refer
to the MAX846A.

LTC4009 - High Efficiency, Multi-Chemistry
Battery Charger
The LTC4009 is a constant-current/constant-
voltage battery charger controller. It uses
a synchronous quasi-constant frequency
PWM control architecture that will not
generate audible noise with ceramic bulk
capacitors. Charge current is set by the
combination of external sense, input and
programming resistors. With no built-in
termination, the LTC4009 family charges a
wide range of batteries under external
control.
