LTC3350EUHF#PBF Datasheet PDF - Linear Technology

The LTC3350EUHF#PBF is a high current supercapacitor Backup Controller and System Monitor can charge and monitor a series stack of one to four supercapacitors. The LTC3350"s synchronous step-down controller drives N-channel MOSFETs for constant current/constant voltage charging with programmable input current limit. In addition, the step-down converter can run in reverse as a step-up converter to deliver power from the supercapacitor stack to the backup supply rail. Internal balancers eliminate the need for external balance resistors and each capacitor has a shunt regulator for overvoltage protection. The LTC3350 monitors system voltages, currents, stack capacitance and stack ESR which can all be read over the I²C/SMBus. The dual ideal diode controller uses N-channel MOSFETs for low loss power paths from the input and supercapacitors to the backup system supply.
