The LM3420AM5-4.2 belongs to the category of PMICs – battery chargers, as it provides a powerful and reliable dual-mode Li-Ion/Li-Polymer charging solution. The device provides an automatic switching between linear and switch-mode current sources, depending on the battery-charging needs. The intuitive charging algorithms enable the device to detect the battery type (Li-Ion or Li-Polymer) and adjust the charging current accordingly to optimize the charging time without causing overcharge or overdischarge. Moreover, the device features an internal temperature sensing capability that prevents battery damage due to unsafe temperatures.

In terms of working principle, the LM3420AM5-4.2 follows the MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) algorithm to efficiently increase the battery charge acceptance rate. By intelligently analysing the obtained battery voltage and current, the device can identify the optimal charging current and adjust the switching frequency accordingly. This helps to reduce the power losses and achieve stable and consistent charging performance.

Furthermore, the device also incorporates two onboard switching regulators for low-dropout voltage regulation and drives. This eliminates the need for extra switching regulators, lowering the bill of materials, and thus introducing even more cost-effectiveness in terms of product development and deployment.
