Multichemistry Battery Chargers with Automatic
System Power Selector
General Description
The MAX1909/MAX8725 highly integrated control ICs
simplify construction of accurate and efficient multi-
chemistry battery chargers. The MAX1909/MAX8725
use analog inputs to control charge current and volt-
age, and can be programmed by a host microcontroller
(µC) or hardwired. High efficiency is achieved through
use of buck topology with synchronous rectification.
The maximum current drawn from the AC adapter is pro-
grammable to avoid overloading the AC adapter when
supplying the load and the battery charger simultane-
ously. The MAX1909/MAX8725 provide a digital output
that indicates the presence of an AC adapter, and an
analog output that monitors the current drawn from the
AC adapter. Based on the presence or absence of the
AC adapter, the MAX1909/MAX8725 automatically select
the appropriate source for supplying power to the sys-
tem by controlling two external p-channel MOSFETs.
Under system control, the MAX1909/MAX8725 allow the
battery to undergo a relearning or conditioning cycle in
which the battery is completely discharged through the
system load and then recharged.
The MAX1909 includes a conditioning charge feature
while the MAX8725 does not. The MAX1909/MAX8725
are available in space-saving 28-pin, 5mm
5mm thin
QFN packages and operate over the extended -40°C to
+85°C temperature range. The MAX1909/MAX8725 are
now available in lead-free packages.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
