DESCRIPTION
The LTC® 1980 integrates PWM power control for charging a battery and converting the battery voltage to a
regulated output or simultaneously charging the battery while powering a system load from an unregulated AC wall adapter. Combining these features into a single IC produces a smaller area and lower cost solution compared to presently available multi-IC solutions. The LTC1980 shares
