Ny Li-ion batterilader chip kan reducere opladningstiden med op til 60 procent
Texas Instruments lancerer 5A single-celle Li-ion batterilader IC, der kan oplade et batteri op til 80 procent af maksimal kapacitet i løbet af 30 minutter (in english).
Enabling faster and cooler charging, Texas Instruments (TI) has introduced the industry’s first fully integrated 5-A single-cell lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery-charger circuit with proprietary MaxCharge technology that reduces charge time up to 60 percent compared to existing battery chargers.The bq25892 switch-mode charger gives users a safer charging experience while still maximizing the benefits of a faster charge time, currently unseen in the industry. MaxCharge technology faster charge times and cooler charging to improve user experience and extend the overall life of electronics in many Li-ion applications, including smartphones, tablets, drones, power banks, and industrial and medical equipment.
The highly efficient charger, which charges at 3.5A with minimal 18˚C temperature rise, facilitates faster and cooler charging by combining narrow-voltage DC/DC power path management with TI’s MaxCharge technology to support input voltages up to 14V while providing charge current up to 5A.
