DEMO MANUAL DC1674A-B
LTC4156EUFD
Dual Input Power Manager/3.5A LiFePO4
Battery Charger with I2C Control and USB OTG
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration Circuit 1674A-B is dual input power
manager/3.5A LiFePO4 battery charger with I2C control
and USB On-The-Go (OTG).
Most functions on the LTC®4156EUFD are controlled via
the I2C serial interface. The LTC4156EUFD also provides
extensive status information via the I2C serial interface.
The dual input multiplexer, overvoltage protection (OVP)
and reverse voltage protection (RVP) is implemented with
external N-channel MOSFETs.
Please refer to the LTC4156EUFD data sheet for details
about the I2C serial interface, control and status registers,
and the electrical and timing specifications.
An on board buck regulator generates the VOUT voltage
from the active input voltage. This voltage is regulated to
minimize the dissipation in the battery charger. The minimum voltage of the VOUT regulator is 3.2V to provide an
instant-on function when the battery is fully discharged.
The LTC4156EUFD does modify several of its own control
registers to reflect the current operating conditions.

DEMO MANUAL DC1674A-B
QUICK START PROCEDURE
DC1674A-B working input voltage range is 4.35V to 5.5V
on both the WALL and USB input. The DC1674A-B will
tolerate non-operating overvoltage inputs up to 27V.
DC1674A-B utilizes the DC590B, USB to I2C interface
board, to control the LTC4156EUFD and to read back the
contents of the command and status registers.
The DC1674A-B is easy to set up to evaluate the performance of the LTC4156EUFD. Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2
for proper measurement equipment setup and follow the
evaluation procedure below using the DC590B board.
NOTE. When measuring the input or output voltage ripple,
care must be taken to avoid a long ground lead on the
oscilloscope probe. Measure the input or output voltage
ripple by touching the probe tip directly across the VIN or
VOUT and GND terminals. See Figure 2 for proper scope
probe technique.

DEMO MANUAL DC1674A-B
QUICK START PROCEDURE
1. Ensure that JP1 and JP2 are in their default positions,
as shown in Figure 1. Set PS3 to 3.6V and turn on. The
DVCC voltage level may be selected on the DC590B.
This is done by setting the VCCIO jumper, JP6, on the
DC590B board to one of the following settings: 3.3V,
5V, removed for 2.7V or set to external if an external
supply is desired to be used. Please set DVCC to 3.3V.
2. Start the Linear Technology QuickEval™ program.
Download and install the latest version of the QuikEval
program from the following weblink: http://www.linear.
com/designtools/software/. This program should automatically detect the presence of the LTC4156EUFD
demo board (DC1674A-B) and activate the appropriate
GUI, as seen in Figure 3.
3. Set PS1 to 5V, and turn on. The “WALL Input Power
Available” and “External Power Available” indicators on
the GUI should turn green. The current on PS1 should
indicate approximately 80mA.
4. Set “WALL ILIM” to 3000mA. To compensate for the
sense resistance of IM1, adjust PS3 such that VM3
reads 3.6V. PS1 should now read approximately 2A,
and IM1 should read approximately 2.4A.
5. Set PS2 to 5V, and turn on. The only change should
be the “USB Input Power Available” indicator should
turn green.
6. Set the “USB ILIM” to 3000mA, and select the USB Input
radio button in the “Input Power Priority” frame. PS1
should now read 0A, PS2 should read approximately
2A, and IM1 should be unchanged at 2.4A
7. Set LD1 to 1A, and turn on. PS2 should now read approximately 3A, and IM1 should be unchanged.
8. Set “ICHARGE%” to 50%. PS2 should now read approximately 2A, and IM1 should be 1.2A.
USING THE LTC4156EUFD SOFTWARE
Introduction
The DC1674A-B GUI provides control of most aspects
of operation of the LTC4156EUFD. The DC1674A-B GUI
continuously reads back the LTC4156EUFD registers and
updates the displayed status accordingly. The DC1674A-B
GUI also provides a means to change the value of the
CLPROGx and PROG resistors, as well as the β of the NTC
device. The user is responsible for ensuring that these
values match the values on the physical Demo Board.
The DC1674A-B GUI will remember these values from
session to session, and they can be reset to the default
values at any time.
The DC1674A-B GUI is composed of three forms, the
LTC4156 form (Figure 3) that is brought up by the QuickEval program, the Manage Current Limit Resistors form
(Figure 4), that is brought up by pressing the “Change
Resistors” button on the LTC4156 form, and the Manage
β Value form (Figure 5) that is brought up by pressing the
“Change β” button on the LTC4156 form.
Any changes made in the Manage Current Limit Resistors
or Manage β Value forms will be reflected on the main form
as soon as “Apply” is pressed. All changes made in these
two forms will be remembered from session to session.
The values can be set to default at any time.

WALL and USB ILIM Sections
9. Turn off and disconnect PS1, VM1, and PS2.
These sections allow control over the WALL and USB
input current limit.
10. Select the “Force OTG Boost On” radio button. VM2
should now read approximately 5V.
These sections should default to 100mA at power-up,
when the USB/USER (JP1) is in the “USB” position. They
dc1674abf

DEMO MANUAL DC1674A-B
QUICK START PROCEDURE
should both default to the 1000mA value at the top of
the frame, at power-up, with the USB/USER (JP1) in the
“USER” position.
If the USB input power becomes unavailable, the USB ILIM
section will return to 100mA.
Input Power Priority
By default, the WALL input has priority on the input power
multiplexer. The priority can be reassigned to USB input
by selecting the appropriate radio button.
OTG Boost Automatic Enable
ICHARGE% Section
This section controls the battery charging current as a
percent of maximum. The maximum is shown at the top
of the frame, and is calculated from the displayed PROG
resistor value.
C/x Set
Select the End of Charging condition. This selects the
current, as a percent of the maximum that indicates end
of charging. Optionally, charging may also be terminated
at the C/x current threshold by selecting the “4hr or C/x”
timer mode.
Timer
This selects the timeout for the charging timer. When
the end of charging condition is reached, the charger is
not turned off, but the timer is started, and when it times
out, the charger is turned off. The exception is “4hr or
C/x” mode, where whichever 4hrs or C/x, occurs first will
terminate charging.
VFLOAT
This selects the desired battery float voltage, and defaults
to 3.45V.
Selectes whether or not the ID pin of the USB connector
enables USB On-The-Go (OTG) operation. It may be desirable to control USB OTG directly, without the need to set
the USB connector ID pin voltage level below VID_OTG. To
control USB OTG directly, check the “Force OTG Boost
On” box. Automatic enable has no effect on ID pin status
indication.
Disable Input UVCL
As the active input voltage (USB or WALL) drops below
4.3V, the LTC4156EUFD will lower the input current limit to
attempt to prevent the input voltage from drooping lower.
This is a useful feature in the input supply voltage is not
very stiff, or if there is significant impedance between the
input supply and the LTC4156EUFD. If this function is not
desired, check the “Disable Input UVCL” box.
Interrupts
The LTC4156EUFD can monitor a variety of conditions,
which it reports over the I2C buss. By selecting the check
boxes in the Interrupt section, the LTC4156EUFD can also
issue interrupts whenever one of these conditions changes.
The presence of an interrupt is indicated by the indicator
changing to red and displaying “Interrupt Pending.” The
interrupt can be cleared by pressing the “Clear Interrupt”
button. Changing the interrupt mask also clears all pending interrupts.
