The LP41323 is a cost-effective standalone Boost 3-cell battery charger. The fast charge current is programmable up to 1.2A with input voltage up to 10.5V.Higher input voltage supports higher charge current because of higher charge efficiency. The Boost
converter switches at 600kHz and a 3.3uH or 4.7uH inductor can be selected. The charge status is indicated by STAT pin driving a LED in series with a current limit resistor. The LP41323 features battery temperature monitoring and protection based on NTC
temperature sensing. The LP41323 offers ESOP-8L package.
