n Battery Can Be Directly Grounded
n Charging Current Easily Programmable or Shut Down The LT®1512 is a 500kHz current mode switching regulator
specially configured to create a constant-current/constantvoltage battery charger. In addition to the usual voltage
feedback node, it has a current sense feedback circuit for
accurately controlling output current of a flyback or SEPIC
(Single-Ended Primary Inductance Converter) topology
charger. These topologies allow the current sense circuit
to be ground referred and completely separated from the
battery itself, simplifying battery switching and system
grounding problems. In addition, these topologies allow
charging even when the input voltage is lower than the
battery voltage. n Applications Maximum switch current on the LT1512 is 1.5A. This allows …
