3.8 Battery Charging Block Interface
The AAT3681A is a high performance battery charger designed to charge single Cell
lithiumion/polymer batteries with up to 500mA of current from an external power source.
It is a stand-alone charging solution, with just one external component required For complete
functionality. The AAT3681A precisely regulates battery charge voltage and current for 4.2V lithium-
ion/polymer battery cells.
The adapter/USB charge input constant current level can be programmed up to 500mA for rapid
charging applications.
The AAT3681A has four basic modes for the battery charge cycle:
pre-conditioning/trickle charge; constant current/fast charge; constant voltage; and end of charge.
