With the development of lithium-ion battery technology and the improvement of consumer demand for battery life of intelligent terminal products, fast charge power management technology has been adopted by more and more manufacturers. However, the high current constant current charging mode of traditional charger ICs often affects the increase of the termination current. If a high rate battery is charged quickly, it may result in the battery not being fully charged for fast charging. Therefore, Thinkplus Semiconductor has launched a 2A BUCK charger IC SY6201 with termination current of 10mA, which perfectly meets the performance requirements of high current charging and low current termination.

SY6201 is a highly integrated single lithium-ion / lithium polymer battery switch charger IC with narrow voltage direct current (NVDC) function for small portable wearable devices with low charge termination current. The integrated path management gives priority to the power supply of the system even if the battery is over-discharged. It is of plug-and-play type. It also has the functions of precharging (PRE.C), fast constant current charging (CC) and constant voltage (CV) regulation, as well as charging end point control and automatic charge recovery in the event of a drop in battery voltage. It adopts QFN-24 4mm×4mm package.
