1 Battery charging for new USB-C applications
Many applications are adopting USB-C PD inputs, and the battery charger must be able to handle the variety of power levels for USB-C PD. It is important to pick the right battery charger that can support all USB-C PD power levels to provide customers with an efficient, quick charging experience.
2 Optimizing the charging and discharging of portable power stations
Bi-directional charging enables engineers to design systems that charge and discharge a battery from the same USB-C PD port. Portable power stations are one example of an application that would benefit from a bi-directional battery charging system.
3 Battery charging for solar applications
As more applications adopt rechargeable batteries, the need to charge the batteries at any moments grows, and solar charging provides a way to charge an application even if there is no outlet around. In order to provide the best solar charging experience, the right battery charger must be chosen to optimize the performance of the solar panels.
