The MCP73213EV-2SOVP is an evaluation board for MCP73213 dual cell Li-Ion/Li-polymer battery charge management controller with input overvoltage protection. The evaluation board is designed with two charging currents. The default value is 500mA and when PROG via is tied to ground, the two parallel resistors output 1000mA charging current to a Li-Ion battery. One blue LED status output allows the user to learn if the MCP73213 is in charging state or not. The MCP73213 OVP dual cell Li-Ion Battery Charger Evaluation Board comes with an installed MCP73213 device in the 3mm x 3mm DFN package. The factory preset battery regulation voltage is 8.40V with 10% precondition current, 10% termination current set point, automatic recharge and 6.5V OVP threshold voltage. The evaluation board is designed to observe the performance and features on the circuits via multiple test points. Circuits can also be implemented into suitable applications without additional work.
