The MAX8804YETA+ is a highly integrated, single-cell Lithium-ion (Li+) battery charger manufactured by Maxim Integrated. It is specifically designed to provide a complete charging solution for portable devices powered by a single Li+ cell, such as smartphones, tablets, and wearable gadgets.
One of the key features of MAX8804YETA+ is its ability to support a wide input voltage range from 4.35V to 6.5V, allowing it to efficiently charge various battery types and configurations. This flexibility enables the device to cater to different power supply scenarios, ensuring compatibility with a diverse range of applications.
The MAX8804YETA+ is equipped with a smart power selector circuitry, which automatically switches between the input power source (USB port or external power adapter) and the battery, depending on the availability of power. This feature provides a seamless transition between different power sources, guaranteeing uninterrupted charging and powering of the device.
Furthermore, the IC incorporates a highly efficient buck-boost charger architecture, which maximizes the charging current while minimizing power dissipation and heat generation. This design enables faster charging times and improved overall efficiency, making it an ideal choice for power-hungry devices with strict charging time requirements.
To protect the Li+ battery from overcharging, the MAX8804YETA+ integrates a comprehensive set of advanced safety features. These include battery temperature monitoring, charge termination control, and overvoltage/overcurrent protections
