LTC4011
Applications Information
While the LTC4011 is a complete, standalone solution,
Figure 9 shows that it can also be interfaced to a host
microprocessor. The host MCU can control the charger
directly with an open-drain I/O port connected to the VTEMP
pin, if that port is low leakage and can tolerate at least
2V. The charger state is monitored on the four LTC4011
status outputs. Charging of NiMH batteries is selected in
this example. However, NiCd (CHEM → VRT) parameters
could be chosen as well.
