LTC4002 Standalone Li-Ion Switch Mode Battery Charger U FEATURES DESCRIPTIO The LTC(R)4002 is a complete battery charger controller for one (4.2V) or two (8.4V) cell lithium-ion batteries. With a 500kHz switching frequency, the LTC4002 provides a small, simple and efficient solution to fast charge Li-Ion batteries from a wide range of supply voltages. An external sense resistor sets the charge current with 5% accuracy. An internal resistor divider and precision reference set the final float voltage to 4.2V per cell with 1% accuracy. Wide Input Supply Range: 4.7V to 22V - 4.2 Version 8.9V to 22V - 8.4 Version High Efficiency Current Mode PWM Controller with 500kHz Switching Frequency 1% Charge Voltage Accuracy End-of-Charge Current Detection Output 3 Hour Charge Termination Timer Constant Switching Frequency for Minimum Noise 5% Charge Current Accuracy Low 10A Reverse Battery Drain Current Automatic Battery Recharge Automatic Shutdown When Input Supply is Removed Automatic Trickle Charging of Low Voltage Batteries Battery Temperature Sensing and Charge Qualification Stable with Ceramic Output Capacitor 8-Lead SO and 10-Lead DFN Packages U APPLICATIO S The LTC4002 is available in the 8-lead SO and 10-lead DFN packages. , LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation. All other trademarks are the property of their respective owners. Portable Computers Charging Docks Handheld Instruments U When the input supply is removed, the LTC4002 automatically enters a low current sleep mode, dropping the battery drain current to 10A. An internal comparator detects the near end-of-charge condition while an internal timer sets the total charge time and terminates the charge cycle. After the charge cycle ends, if the battery voltage drops below 4.05V per cell, a new charge cycle will automatically begin.

The COMP pin is the control signal of the inner loop of the current mode PWM. Charging begins when the COMP pin reaches 800mV. The recommended compensation components are a 0.47F (or larger) capacitor and a 2.2k series resistor. A 100A current into the compensation capacitor also sets the soft-start slew rate. Pulling the COMP pin below 360mV will shut down the charger. VCC (Pin 2/Pin 2): Positive Supply Voltage Input. VCC can range from VBAT(FLT) + 0.5V to 22V. A 0.1F or higher capacitor is required at the VCC pin with the lead length kept to a minimum. A 10F low ESR capacitor is also required at the source pins of the power P-channel MOSFET. GATE (Pin 3/Pin 3): Gate Drive Output. Driver Output for the P-Channel MOSFET. The voltage at this pin is internally clamped to 8V below VCC, allowing a low voltage MOSFET with gate-to-source breakdown voltage of 8V or less to be used. PGND, SGND, Exposed Pad, GND (Pins 4, 5, 11/Pin 4): IC Ground. The exposed pad (DFN) must be soldered to PCB ground to provide both electrical contact and optimum thermal performance. CHRG (Pin 6/Pin 5): Open-Drain Charge Status Output. When the battery is being charged, the CHRG pin is pulled low by an internal N-channel MOSFET. When the charge current drops below the End-of-Charge threshold for more than 120s, the N-channel MOSFET turns off and a 25A current source is connected from the CHRG pin to GND. When the timer runs out or the input supply is removed, the 25A current source is turned off and the CHRG pin becomes high impedance. BAT (Pin 7/Pin 6): Battery Sense Input. A bypass capacitor of 22F is required to minimize ripple voltage. An internal resistor divider, which is disconnected in sleep mode, sets the final float voltage at this pin. If the battery connection is opened when charging, an overvoltage circuit will limit the charger output voltage to 10% above the programmed float voltage. When VBAT is within 250mV of VCC, the LTC4002 is forced into sleep mode, dropping ICC to 10A. SENSE (Pin 8/Pin 7): Current Amplifier Sense Input. A sense resistor, RSENSE, must be connected between the SENSE and BAT pins. The maximum charge current is equal to 100mV/RSENSE. NTC (Pin 9/Pin 8): NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) Thermistor Input. With an external 10k NTC thermistor to ground, this pin senses the temperature of the battery pack and stops the charger when the temperature is out of range. When the voltage at this pin drops below 355mV at 4002f 8 LTC4002 U U U PI FU CTIO S (DFN/SO-8) hot temperature or rises above 2.465V at cold temperature, charging is suspended and the internal timer stops. The CHRG pin output is not affected during this hold state. To disable the temperature qualification function, ground the NTC pin. NC (Pin 10/NA): No Connect.

The charge current is set by an external sense resistor (RSENSE) across the SENSE and BAT pins. The final battery float voltage is internally set to 4.2V per cell. For batteries like lithium-ion that require accurate final float voltage, the internal 2.465V reference, voltage amplifier and the resistor divider provide regulation with 1% accuracy. A charge cycle begins when the voltage at the VCC pin rises above the UVLO level and is 250mV or more greater than the battery voltage. At the beginning of the charge cycle, if the battery voltage is less than the trickle charge threshold, 2.9V for the 4.2 version and 5V for the 8.4 version, the charger goes into trickle charge mode. The trickle charge current is internally set to 10% of the full-scale current. If the battery voltage stays low for 30 minutes, the battery is considered faulty and the charge cycle is terminated. When the battery voltage exceeds the trickle charge threshold, the charger goes into the full-scale constant current charge mode. In constant current mode, the charge current is set by the external sense resistor RSENSE and an internal 100mV reference; IBAT = 100mV/RSENSE. When the battery voltage approaches the programmed float voltage, the charge current will start to decrease. When the current drops to 25% (4.2 version) or 10% (8.4 version) of the full-scale charge current, an internal comparator turns off the internal pull-down N-channel MOSFET at the CHRG pin, and connects a weak current source to ground to indicate a near end-of-charge condition. An internal 3 hour timer determines the total charge time. After a time out occurs, the charge cycle is terminated and the CHRG pin is forced high impedance. To restart the charge cycle, remove and reapply the input voltage or momentarily shut the charger down. Also, a new charge cycle will begin if the battery voltage drops below the recharge threshold voltage of 4.05V per cell. When the input voltage is present, the charger can be shut down (ICC = 3mA) by pulling the COMP pin low. When the input voltage is not present, the charger goes into sleep 4002f 10 LTC4002 U OPERATIO mode, dropping ICC to 10A. This will greatly reduce the current drain on the battery and increase the standby time. A 10k NTC (negative temperature coefficient) thermistor can be connected from the NTC pin to ground for battery temperature qualification. The charge cycle is suspended when the temperature is outside of the 0C to 50C window (with DALE NTHS-1206N02). U W U U APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) CHRG Status Output Pin An undervoltage lockout circuit monitors the input voltage and keeps the charger off until VCC rises above the UVLO threshold (4.2V for the 4.2 version, 7.5V for the 8.4 version) and at least 250mV above the battery voltage. To prevent oscillation around the threshold voltage, the UVLO circuit has 200mV per cell of built-in hysteresis. When specifying minimum input voltage requirements, the voltage drop across the input blocking diode must be added to the minimum VCC supply voltage specification. When a charge cycle starts, the CHRG pin is pulled to ground by an internal N-channel MOSFET which is capable of driving an LED. When the charge current drops below the End-of-Charge threshold for more than 120s, the N-channel MOSFET turns off and a weak 25A current source to ground is connected to the CHRG pin. This weak 25A pull-down remains until the timer ends the charge cycle, or the charger is in manual shutdown or sleep mode. Trickle Charge and Defective Battery Detection At the beginning of a charge cycle, if the battery voltage is below the trickle charge threshold, the charger goes into trickle charge mode with the charge current reduced to 10% of the full-scale current. If the low-battery voltage persists for 30 minutes, the battery is considered defective, the charge cycle is terminated and the CHRG pin is forced high impedance. Shutdown After a time out occurs (charge cycle ends), the pin will become high impedance. By using two different value resistors, a microprocessor can detect three states from this pin (charging, end-of-charge and charging stopped) see Figure 1. VDD VCC LTC4002 390k 2k CHRG PROCESSOR OUT IN 4002 F02 The LTC4002 can be shut down by pulling the COMP pin to ground which pulls the GATE pin high turning off the external P-channel MOSFET. When the COMP pin is released, the internal timer is reset and a new charge cycle starts. In shutdown, the output of the CHRG pin is high impedance and the quiescent current remains at 3mA. Removing the input power supply will put the charger into sleep mode. If the voltage at the VCC pin drops below (VBAT + 250mV) or below the UVLO level, the LTC4002 goes into a low current (ICC = 10A) sleep mode, reducing the battery drain current. Figure 1. Microprocessor Interface To detect the charge mode, force the digital output pin, OUT, high and measure the voltage at the CHRG pin. The N-channel MOSFET will pull the pin low even with a 2k pull-up resistor. Once the charge current drops below the End-of-Charge threshold, the N-channel MOSFET is turned off and a 25A current source is connected to the CHRG pin. The IN pin will then be pulled high by the 2k resistor connected to OUT. Now force the OUT pin into a high 4002f 11 LTC4002 U W U U APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO impedance state, the current source will pull the pin low through the 390k resistor. When the internal timer has expired, the CHRG pin changes to a high impedance state and the 390k resistor will then pull the pin high to indicate charging has stopped. Gate Drive The LTC4002 gate driver can provide high transient currents to drive the external pass transistor. The rise and fall times are typically 20ns and 50ns respectively when driving a 2000pF load, which is typical for a P-channel MOSFET with RDS(ON) in the range of 50m. A voltage clamp is added to limit the gate drive to 8V below VCC. For example, if VCC is 10V then the GATE output will pull down to 2V max. This allows low voltage P-channel MOSFETs with superior RDS(ON) to be used as the pass transistor thus increasing efficiency. Stability Both the current loop and the voltage loop share a common, high impedance, compensation node (COMP pin). A series capacitor and resistor on this pin compensates both loops. The resistor is included to provide a zero in the loop response and boost the phase margin. The compensation capacitor also provides a soft-start function for the charger. Upon start-up, the COMP pin voltage will quickly rise to 0.22V, due to the 2.2k series resistor, then ramp at a rate set by the internal 100A pullup current source and the external capacitor. Battery charge current starts ramping up when the COMP pin voltage reaches 0.8V and full current is achieved with the COMP pin at 1.3V. With a 0.47F capacitor, time to reach full charge current is about 2.35ms. Capacitance can be increased up to 1F if a longer start-up time is needed. Automatic Battery Recharge After the 3 hour charge cycle is completed and both the battery and the input power supply (wall adapter) are still connected, a new charge cycle will begin if the battery voltage drops below 4.05V per cell due to self-discharge or external loading. This will keep the battery capacity at more than 80% at all times without manually restarting the charge cycle. Battery Temperature Detection A negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor located close to the battery pack can be used to monitor battery temperature and will not allow charging unless the battery temperature is within an acceptable range. Connect a 10k thermistor (DALE NTHS-1206N02) from the NTC pin to ground. If the temperature rises to 50C, the resistance of the NTC will be approximately 4.1k. With the 85A pull-up current source, the Hot temperature voltage threshold is 350mV. For Cold temperature, the voltage threshold is set at 2.465V which is equal to 0C (RNTC 28.4k) with 85A of pull-up current. If the temperature is outside the window, the GATE pin will be pulled up to VCC and the timer frozen while the output status at the CHRG pin remains the same. The charge cycle begins or resumes once the temperature is within the acceptable range. Short the NTC pin to ground to disable the temperature qualification feature. 4002f 12 LTC4002 U W U U APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Input and Output Capacitors Since the input capacitor is assumed to absorb all input switching ripple current in the converter, it must have an adequate ripple current rating. Worst-case RMS ripple current is approximately one-half of output charge current. Actual capacitance value is not critical. Solid tantalum capacitors have a high ripple current rating in a relatively small surface mount package, but caution must be used when tantalum capacitors are used for input bypass. High input surge currents can be created when the adapter is hot-plugged to the charger and solid tantalum capacitors have a known failure mechanism when subjected to very high turn-on surge currents. Selecting the highest possible voltage rating on the capacitor will minimize problems. Consult with the manufacturer before use. The selection of output capacitor COUT is primarily determined by the ESR required to minimize ripple voltage and load step transients. The output ripple VOUT is approximately bounded by: 1 VOUT IL ESR + 8 fOSCCOUT Since IL increases with input voltage, the output ripple is highest at maximum input voltage. Typically, once the ESR requirement is satisfied, the capacitance is adequate for filtering and has the necessary RMS current rating. Switching ripple current splits between the battery and the output capacitor depending on the ESR of the output capacitor and the battery impedance. EMI considerations usually make it desirable to minimize ripple current in the battery leads. Ferrite beads or an inductor may be added to increase battery impedance at the 500kHz switching frequency. If the ESR of the output capacitor is 0.2 and the battery impedance is raised to 4 with a bead or inductor, only 5% of the current ripple will flow in the battery. Design Example As a design example, take a charger with the following specifications: VIN = 5V to 22V, VBAT = 4V nominal, IBAT = 1.5A, fOSC = 500kHz, see Figure 2. First, calculate the SENSE resistor : RSENSE = 100mV/1.5A = 68m Choose the inductor for about 65% ripple current at the maximum VIN: L= 4V 4V 1- = 6.713H (500kHz)(0.65)(1.5A) 22V Selecting a standard value of 6.8H results in a maximum ripple current of : IL = 4V 4V 1- = 962.6mA (500kHz)(6.8H) 22V 4002f 13 LTC4002 U W U U APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Board Layout Suggestions Next, choose the P-channel MOSFET. The Si6435ADQ in a TSSOP-8 package with RDS(ON) = 42m (nom), 55m (max) offers a small solution. The maximum power dissipation with VIN = 5V and VBAT = 4V at 50C ambient temperature is: When laying out the printed circuit board, the following considerations should be taken to ensure proper operation of the LTC4002. GATE pin rise and fall times are 20ns and 50ns respectively (with CGATE = 2000pF). To minimize radiation, the catch diode, pass transistor and the input bypass capacitor traces should be kept as short as possible. The positive side of the input capacitor should be close to the source of the P-channel MOSFET; it provides the AC current to the pass transistor. The connection between the catch diode and the pass transistor should also be kept as short as possible. The SENSE and BAT pins should be connected directly to the sense resistor (Kelvin sensing) for best charge current accuracy. Avoid routing the NTC PC board trace near the MOSFET switch to minimize coupling switching noise into the NTC pin. 2 (1.5A) (55m )(4V) = 0.099 W PD = 5V TJ = 50C + (0.099W)(65C/W) = 56.5C CIN is chosen for an RMS current rating of about 0.8A at 85C. The output capacitor is chosen for an ESR similar to the battery impedance of about 100m. The ripple voltage on the BAT pin is: IL(MAX) (ESR) 2 (0.96A)(0.1) = 48mV = 2 C1: Taiyo Yuden TMK325BJ106MM C2: Taiyo Yuden JMK325BJ226MM L1: TOKO B952AS-6R8N VOUT(RIPPLE) = The compensation capacitor connected at the COMP pin should return to the ground pin of the IC or as close to it as possible. This will prevent ground noise from disrupting the loop stability. The ground pin also works as a heat sink, therefore use a generous amount of copper around the ground pin. This is especially important for high VCC and/or high gate capacitance applications. The Schottky diode D2 shown in Figure 2 conducts current when the pass transistor is off. In a low duty cycle case, the current rating should be the same or higher than the charge current. Also it should withstand reverse voltage as high as VIN.
