Mikroelektronika MIKROE-3568 MAX1757 Li-Ion/Li-Po Battery Charger Module for 1-3 Cells

Technical description of the product (MIKROE-3568):

The Charger 9 click is a Li-Ion (Li+, Li-Po) battery charger module, capable of charging one, two, or three battery cells. It is based on the MAX1757, an integrated Li+ battery charger with features for safe and reliable charging. This IC incorporates internal switching-mode regulation with input current limiting, enabling the use of an external power supply from a cost-effective wall adapter, rated up to 14V. An extensive state machine within the MAX1757 IC, along with two additional timers, regulates the charging process, ensuring safety and reliability. In the event of an error, the charging process is halted, and the fault is reported via both an LED and the mikroBUS™ pin. Type: Battery charger Applications: The Charger 9 click is an ideal solution for developing multiple Li+ battery cell charging applications, offering a set of connectors, pins, and LED indicators for fast and easy prototyping. On-board modules: MAX1757, a stand-alone, switch-mode Li+ battery charger from Maxim Integrated. Key Features: Safe and efficient charging for up to 3 selectable Li-Po / Li-ion battery cells, extensive state machine for reliable charging, two types of battery connectors, charging state indicators via LEDs and mikroBUS™ pins. Interface: GPIOClick Click board size: M (42.9 x 25.4 mm) Input Voltage: 3.3V.
