Evaluation Board
5A 2-4 Cell Buck-Boost Switching Battery Charger
Evaluation Board

General Description

The Evaluation Board demonstrates that the RT9492GQVF(2) is designed for a highly-integrated 5A Buck-Boost
switch mode battery charge management and system power path management device for 2-4 cell Li-Ion and Li-
polymer batteries. The low impedance power path optimizes switch-mode operation efficiency, reduces battery
2
charging time, and extends battery life during the discharging phase. The I
C serial interface with charging and system
settings makes the device a truly flexible solution.
