Chapter 1. Product Overview
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The MCP73213 product family is highly integrated linear charge management
controllers for dual-cell Li-Ion and Li-Polymer batteries. The MCP73213 product family
operates with minimum external components, which is ideal for use in space-limited
and cost-effective applications. The maximum 18V rated input over voltage protection
and battery short circuit protection offer designers a secondary protection in addition to
the Li-Ion battery protection circuit.
