Abstract:
A charger circuit for providing a charging current and voltage to a battery includes a power delivery unit, a capacitive power conversion circuit and a reverse blocking switch circuit. The power delivery unit converts an input power to a DC voltage and current. The capacitive power conversion circuit includes a conversion switch circuit including plural conversion switches coupled with one or more conversion capacitors, and a conversion control circuit. The DC current is regulated to a predetermined DC current level, and the conversion control circuit controls the connections of the plural conversion capacitors such that the charging current is scaled-up of the predetermined DC current level substantially by a current scale-up factor. The reverse blocking switch circuit is coupled in series with the capacitive power conversion circuit. The body diode of the reverse blocking switch is reversely coupled to the body diode of the conversion switch.
