Re: [Gumstix-users] new stuff available soon ..?

[Doug S. <do...@pr...>]

My plan for mobile power is lithium polymer (light but good energy density)
charging with LM3622 and monitoring with DS2438:

The DS2438 is 1-wire microlan bus, I will be using a microcontroller for
that communication. There are many, many battery monitor ICs with various
communications methods.
