Design A Load Sharing System Power Path Management with Microchip's Stand-Alone Li-Ion Battery Charger

From Microchip Technology, Inc.
 

 

Batteries often serve as the main energy source for portable electronic devices. Although they depend on batteries, portable consumer electronic products, such as GPS and multi-media players, often consume energy directly from ac-dc wall adapter or accessory power adapter (or Auto Adapter) when the battery is low or the device is in a stationary mode.
