cropower DC/DC converter. As shown in Figure 9, the
LT1304 monitors the input supply voltage and activates
when it drops below 6V.
Power for the DCIN and battery monitors and the logic
supply in the LTC1479 is then obtained from the output of
the LT1304 step-up regulator.
Charger System Interface
The LTC1479 is designed to work directly with constant-
voltage (CV), constant-current (CC) battery chargers such
as the LT1510 and LT1511.
LT1510 Battery Charger Interface
As illustrated in Figure 10, the LT1510 CV/CC battery
charger, takes power from the DC adapter input through
Schottky diode D1. The output of the charger is directed to
