Lithium-ion Charge controller

Overview

TopologyBuck-Boost Converter
Input voltage11-36 V
IC revision1.0

Description

The Ag105 is a solar charge controller for protected Lithium-ion (Li-ion) and Lithium Polymer (Li-Po) batteries that can also be used with a fixed DC supply in standalone applications. The module requires very few supporting components to configure the charge controller to any application.With a wide operating input range of 11VDC to 36VDC and using intelligent charging techniques, such as Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), the Ag105 will adjust the charge rate to optimise the power produced by a solar panel.The Ag105 can be configured for 1, 2 or 3 series cell Li-ion batteries, with 4 voltage per-cell options to balance serviceable battery lifetime and usable capacity.

Features

  • Solar panel or fixed DC source charge controller for Lithium-ion battery packs

  • Wide input supply range 11V - 36V
  • Adjustable charge voltage and current
  • Fully integrated module, minimal external components
  • I2C interface
  • High Efficiency
  • Overload, short-circuit, and thermal protection

Typical applications

  • This evaluation board is designed to work with the Ag105 Miniature Lithium-ion Charge Controller (supplied fitted) and Lithium-ion battery pack.
