LT3652HV
Power Tracking 2A Battery
Charger
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LT®3652HV is a complete monolithic step-down bat-
tery charger that operates over a 4.95V to 34V input range.
The LT3652HV provides a constant-current/constant-voltage
charge characteristic, with maximum charge current
externally programmable up to 2A. The charger employs
a 3.3V float voltage feedback reference, so any desired
battery float voltage up to 18V can be programmed with a
resistor divider.

a programmed level, set with a resistor divider. When the
LT3652HV is powered by a solar panel, the input regulation
loop is used to maintain the panel at peak output power.

starts a new charging cycle if the battery voltage falls 2.5%
below the programmed float voltage. The LT3652HV also
contains a programmable safety timer, used to terminate
charging after a desired time is reached. This allows top-off
charging at currents less than C/10.
