STMicroelectronics STBC02 Li-Ion Linear Battery Charger with LDO STMicroelectronics STBC02 Li-Ion Linear Battery Charger with LDO is a highly integrated power management IC that embeds a linear battery charger, 150mA LDO and 2 SPDT load switches. The STBCO2 also has a smart reset/watchdog block and a protection circuit module (PCM) to prevent the battery from being damaged under fault conditions. The STBC02 uses a CC/CV algorithm to charge the battery with a fast charge and pre-charge current that can independently programmed using dedicated resistors.
