FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LTC®4162-F is an advanced monolithic synchronous
step-down switching battery charger and PowerPath™
manager that seamlessly manages power distribution
between input sources such as wall adapters, backplanes,
solar panels, etc., and a rechargeable lithium iron phos-
phate battery.
