Battery Charger: LTC4010

  • for best reliability, input voltage should be (2V*n_cells)+0.3V = ~21V


Undervoltage Protection: LT6703-2

  • 1.4-18V voltage comparator with built in reference
  • V- pin exposed, will output a logic 1 if input < reference
  • low current draw, ~6.5uA
  • open collector output, will likely need FET driver


Boost Converter: TPS55330

  • 12V to 21V boost converter
  • 1.5A output current


Load Switch:

  • 2A-5A (higher end of the range is better)
  • battery voltage can be ~14V, so voltage needs to be >14V
  • active high enable
  • WSON package for better power dissipation
  • may need to be a high side MOSFET driver + power MOSFET


OR Gate:

  • actually needs to be a NOR gate (inverted or), since a logic 1 at the output of the OR gate should turn off load switch
  • able to take battery voltage on power supply, or pair with regulator that drops battery voltage to logic voltage
  • 5V or 12V logic compatible (12V preferred)
  • SOT package preferred
