LI charger chips are switching step-down converters with a constant-current mode.
Say it's a single switch buck-type charger. It's input range is 5V to 10V, and is capable of charging cells at 2A.
Will that chip require a 2A input regardless of Vin, whether 5V or 10V?
Or, can the chip accept a 1A input @ 10V, and output 4V charge-voltage at 2A?
thx
