General Description
The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W are
intelligent, stand-alone constant-current, constant-volt-
age (CCCV), thermally regulated linear chargers
designed for charging a single-cell lithium-ion (Li+) bat-
tery. The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W
integrate a current-sense circuit, MOSFET pass element,
thermal-regulation circuitry, and eliminate the external
reverse-blocking Schottky diode to create the simplest
and smallest charging solutions for handheld equipment.
The ICs control the charging sequence from the pre-
qualification state through constant current fast-charge,
top-off charge, and full-charge indication. Proprietary
thermal-regulation circuitry limits the die temperature
during fast-charging or when the ICs are exposed to
high ambient temperatures, allowing maximum charg-
ing current without damaging the ICs.
The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W
achieve high flexibility by providing adjustable fast-
charge currents (SETI) and an adjustable top-off cur-
rent threshold (MIN) through external resistors. The
MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W feature
a booting assistant circuit that distinguishes input
sources and battery connection and provides an
enable signal (ABO—MAX8845Z and ABO—
MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W) for system booting.
The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W also
integrate an overvoltage-protected output (SAFEOUT) for
low voltage-rated USB or charger inputs in system, and a
battery-pack detection circuit (DETBAT) that disables the
charger when the battery pack is absent. Other features
include an active-low control input (EN), an active-low
input power source detection output (POK), and a fully
charged top-off threshold detection output (CHG).
The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W
accept an input supply range from 4.25V (4.4V for
MAX8845W only) to 28V, but disable charging if the
supply voltage exceeds +7.5V (+8.0V for MAX8845X
only) to protect against unqualified or faulty AC
adapters. The ICs operate over the extended tempera-
ture range (-40°C to +85°C) and are available in a com-
pact 12-pin, thermally enhanced thin QFN, 3mm x 3mm
package (0.8mm max height).

NAME FUNCTION
1 1 SETI
Charge-Current Program and Fast-Charge Current Monitor. Output current from SETI is
1016µA per ampere of battery charging current. Set the charging current by connecting
a resistor (RSETI in Figure 3) from SETI to GND. IFAST-CHARGE = 1400V/RSETI. To
configure the MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W as a USB charger, see
Figure 5.
2 2 DETBAT
Battery Pack ID Resistor Detection Input. If DETBAT is pulled low through a pulldown
resistor less than 51kΩ the charger is enabled. If DETBAT is left unconnected, the
charger is disabled.
3 3 ABI Autobooting External Input. See the Autobooting Assistant section and Table 1 for
autobooting conditions. ABI is pulled to GND through an internal 200kΩ resistor.
44EN Active-Low, Logic-Level Enable Input. Drive EN high to disable charger. Drive EN low or
leave unconnected for normal operation. EN has an internal 200kΩ pulldown resistor.
5 5 GND Ground. Connect GND and the exposed pad to a large copper ground plane for
maximum power dissipation. Connect GND to the exposed pad directly under the IC.
66POK
Active-Low, Input Voltage Status Indicator. POK is an open-drain output that asserts low
when 2.35V < VIN < 7V (7.5V for MAX8845X only) and (VIN - VBATT) > 40mV. If VIN >
+7.5V (+8.0V for MAX8845X only) or VBATT > VIN the IC is shut down and POK becomes
high impedance. Connect a pullup resistor to the microprocessor’s I/O voltage when
interfacing with a microprocessor logic input.

ceramic capacitor. SAFEOUT can be used to supply low voltage-rated USB systems.
—— EP
Exposed Pad. Connect the exposed pad to a large ground plane for maximum power
dissipation. Connect GND to the exposed pad directly under the IC.
Detailed Description
The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W
chargers use voltage, current, and thermal-control
loops to charge a single Li+ cell and protect the battery
(Figure 1). When a Li+ battery with a cell voltage below
2.5V is inserted, the MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/
MAX8845W chargers enter a prequalification stage
where it precharges that cell with 10% of the user-pro-
grammed fast-charge current (Figure 2). The CHG indi-
cator is driven low to indicate entry into the prequalifi-
cation state. When the battery voltage exceeds 2.5V,
the charger soft-starts as it enters the fast-charge
stage. The fast-charge current level is programmed
through a resistor from SETI to GND. As the battery
voltage approaches 4.2V, the charging current is
reduced. If the battery current drops to less than the

top-off current threshold set by RMIN, the charger
enters top-off mode and the CHG indicator goes high
impedance signaling that the battery is fully charged.
Overvoltage-Protected Output (SAFEOUT)
SAFEOUT is a linear regulator that provides an output
voltage of 4.7V (MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845W) or
4.85V (MAX8845X) and can be used to supply low volt-
age- rated USB systems. The SAFEOUT linear regulator
turns on when VIN ≥4.25V regardless of EN and is dis-
abled when VIN is greater than the overvoltage thresh-
old (7.5V typ) (8.0V typ for MAX8845X only).
Battery-Pack Detection Input (DETBAT)
DETBAT is a battery-pack ID resistor detector that
enables the battery charger if pulled low through a
resistor that is less than 51kΩ. If DETBAT is left uncon-
nected or the pulldown resistor is 51kΩor greater the
battery charger is disabled. If DETBAT is not used con-
nect DETBAT to GND for normal operation.
POK
Output
The open-drain POK output asserts low when 2.35V ≤
VIN ≤7V (7.5V for MAX8845X only) and (VIN - VBATT) ≥
40mV (typ VIN rising). POK is high impedance during
shutdown. When interfacing with a microprocessor
logic input, a pullup resistor to the microprocessor’s I/O
voltage may be required.
Autobooting Assistant
The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W con-
tain autobooting assistant circuits that generate an
enable signal for system booting (ABO—MAX8845Z,
ABO—MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W). For the
MAX8845Z, the booting assistant functions as an internal
OR gate (Figure 1). The first input is dependant on the
input voltage (VIN) and DETBAT while the second input
is an external signal applied to ABI. The first input (POK)
is driven high once DETBAT is pulled low through a
resistor less than 51kΩ, 2.35V ≤VIN ≤7V (7.5V for only
MAX8845X), and (VIN - VBATT) ≥40mV (typ VIN rising).
The second input signal (ABI) is driven by an external
source (Table 1). ABI enables an autoboot signal when
a battery is connected at BATT and is independent of
POK. If POK is pulled low, the booting assistant always
drives ABO high regardless of ABI. ABI is pulled to GND
through an internal 200kΩresistor. If ABI is supplied
from an outside exposed pin, a RC filter (Figure 4) is
required for ESD protection and noise filtering. If ABI is
supplied by a system’s internal GPIO, or logic, the RC
filter is not required. For the MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/
MAX8845W, the output ABO is only dependent on the
state of ABI (Table 1).
CHG
Charge Indicator Output
CHG is an open-drain output that indicates charge sta-
tus. Table 2 describes the state of CHG during different
stages of operation. CHG is suitable for driving a charge
indication LED. If the MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/

Figure 2. Charge-State Diagram
MAX8845W are used in conjunction with a microproces-
sor, a pullup resistor to the logic I/O voltage allows CHG
to indicate charge status to the microprocessor instead
of driving an LED.
Thermal Regulation
The thermal-regulation loop limits the MAX8845Z/
MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W die temperature to
+115°C by reducing the charge current as necessary.
This feature not only protects the IC from overheating,
but also allows a higher charge current without risking
damage to the system.
Charger Enable Input
The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W
contain active-low logic input (EN) used to enable the
chargers. Drive EN low, leave unconnected, or connect
to GND to enable the charge-control circuitry. Drive EN
high to disable the charger-control circuitry. EN has an
internal 200kΩpulldown resistor.
Soft-Start
The soft-start algorithm activates when entering fast-
charge mode. When the prequalification state is com-
plete (VBATT exceeds +2.5V), the charging current
ramps up in 250µs to the full charging current. This
reduces the inrush current demand on the input supply.
Applications Information
Fast Charge-Current Setting
The maximum charging current is programmed by an
external resistor connected from SETI to GND (RSETI).
Use the following equation to determine the fast-charge
current (IFAST_CHARGE):
where IFAST_CHARGE is in amps and RSETI is in ohms.
RSETI must always be 1.4kΩor higher due to the con-
tinuous charging current limit of 1ARMS.
Top-Off Current Threshold Setting
The top-off current threshold is programmed by an
external resistor connected from MIN to GND (RMIN).
Use the following equation to determine the top-off cur-
rent (IMIN):
IMIN (falling) = 148V/RMIN (kΩ) + 22mA
IMIN (rising) = 295V/RMIN (kΩ) - 24mA
where IMIN is in mA and RMIN is in kΩ. Use RMIN ≤
2.2kΩ.

MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W
Capacitor Selection
Connect a ceramic capacitor from BATT to GND for
proper stability. Use a 2.2µF ceramic capacitor for most
applications. Connect a 1µF ceramic capacitor from IN
to GND. A larger input capacitor can be used for high
charging current to reduce input voltage ripple.
Connect a 1µF ceramic capacitor from SAFEOUT to
GND. A larger bypass capacitor for SAFEOUT can be
used for optimum noise immunity. Ceramic capacitors
with X5R or X7R dielectric are highly recommended
due to their small size, low ESR, and small temperature
coefficients.
Thermal Considerations
The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W are
available in thermally enhanced Thin QFN packages
with exposed pads. Connect the exposed pad to a
large copper ground plane to provide a thermal contact
between the device and the circuit board for increased
power dissipation. The exposed pad transfers heat
away from the device, allowing the IC to charge the
battery with maximum current, while minimizing the
increase in die temperature.
DC Input Sources
The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W
operate from well-regulated DC sources. The full charg-
ing input voltage range is 4.25V (4.4V for MAX8845W
only) to 7.5V (8V for MAX8845X only). The device can
withstand up to 28V on the input without damage to the
IC. If VIN is greater than 7.5V (8V for MAX8845X only),
the internal overvoltage-protection circuitry disables
charging until the input falls below 7.5V (8V for
MAX8845X only). An appropriate power supply must
provide at least 4.25V at the desired peak charging
current and stay below 7V when unloaded.
Typical Application Circuits
AC Adapter Application
Figure 3 shows the MAX8845Z as a Li+ battery charger
with an AC adapter. The MAX8845Z detects the presence
of an input supply and DETBET, resulting in POK pulled
low. Once POK is pulled low, the autobooting assistant
drives ABO high (MAX8845Z) and enables the power
supplies of the system to boot up. The MAX8845Z begins
charging the battery when EN is low or unconnected. By
monitoring CHG, the system can detect the top-off thresh-
old and terminate the charge through EN. The
MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/MAX8845W also pro-
vide an overvoltage-protected SAFEOUT to the system.
Factory System Interface Connector Application
Figure 4 shows the MAX8845Z as an autoboot assistor
with the factory system interface connector. The
MAX8845Z detects the ABI input even though there is no
input voltage available and generates an ABO signal to
turn on power supplies to boot up the system. The con-
figuration in Figure 4 is used for system development,
testing, and calibrations in production or design stage.
USB-Powered Li-Ion Charger
The universal serial bus (USB) provides a high-speed
serial communication port as well as power for the
remote device. The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/
MAX8845W can be configured to charge batteries at the
highest current possible from the host port. Figure 5
shows the MAX8845Z as a USB battery charger. To
make the circuit compatible with either 100mA or
500mA USB ports, the circuit initializes at 100mA charg-
ing current. The microprocessor then enumerates the
host to determine its current capability. If the host port is
capable, the charging current is increased to 450mA to
avoid exceeding the 500mA USB specification through
GPIO control. The MAX8845Z/MAX8845Y/MAX8845X/
MAX8845W also provide an overvoltage-protected
SAFEOUT to the system.
Recommended PCB Layout and Routing
Place all bypass capacitors for IN, BATT, and
SAFEOUT as close as possible to the device. Connect
the battery to BATT as close as possible to the device
to provide accurate battery voltage sensing. Provide a
large copper ground plane to allow the exposed pad to
sink heat away from the device. Make all high-current
traces short and wide to minimize voltage drops. A
sample layout is available in the MAX8845Z Evaluation
Kit to speed designs.
