INTRODUCTION
The SMB339 is a programmable single-cell lithium-ion/lithium-polymer
battery charger designed for a variety of portable applications. The
device provides a simple and efficient way to charge high-capacity Li-
Ion batteries via a USB or AC adapter input. Furthermore, the SMB339
is able to automatically adjust input current level by detecting the
AC/DC adapter’s maximum stable output current, thereby
automatically matching wall adapter to electronic device.
Unlike conventional devices, the SMB339’s high-efficiency, switchmode
operation eliminates the thermal problems of conventional linear
solutions. Also the buck converter architecture effectively multiplies the
input current to increase charge rate for the Li+ cell and uses current
limited supplies like USB more efficiently. The SMB339 also supports
USB On-the-Go devices by providing the required USB-OTG +5V
power supply using the Li-Ion battery as a source.
