The LiPo Charger Basic uses a Microchip MCP73831T-2ACI/OT charge management controller to charge 3.7V single-cell Lithium-Ion or Lithium-Polymer batteries at a rate of 500mA per hour. The board incorporates a charging circuit, status LED, connector for your battery (JST type), and the mini-USB connector. A small mounting hole allows this charger to be embedded into a project easily. The board measures 29.4 × 10.8 mm. Two through-hole pads are provided in case you need to install header pins to connect a battery that does not have a JST connector. Instead of requiring a PC's USB power, you might consider the TOL-11456 wall-mount 5V, 1A power supply that uses a USB cable for delivery.
