bq21040 0.8-A Single-Input, Single-Cell Li-Ion Battery
Charger Evaluation Module
This user’s guide describes the bq21040 evaluation module (EVM), how to perform a stand-alone
evaluation or interface with a host or system. The charger is designed to deliver up to 800 mA of
continuous current to the battery output when programmed with a resistor on the ISET pin and is
programmed at the factory for approximately 540 mA. The charge status is indicated by the /CHG pin.

Introduction
The bq21040 series of devices are highly integrated Li-ion linear charger devices targeted at space-limited
portable applications. The devices operate from either a USB port or AC adapter.
The bq21040 has a single power output that charges the battery. A system load can be placed in parallel
with the battery as long as the average system load does not keep the battery from charging fully during
the 10 hour safety timer.
The battery is charged in three phases: conditioning, constant current, and constant voltage. In all charge
phases, an internal control loop monitors the IC junction temperature and reduces the charge current if an
internal temperature threshold is exceeded.
The charger power stage and charge current sense functions are fully integrated. The charger function
has high-accuracy current and voltage regulation loops, charge status display, and charge termination.
The pre-charge current and termination current threshold are set to 20% and 10% of the fast charge
current internally on the bq21040. The fast charge current value is programmable via an external resistor.
2
Considerations With Evaluating the bq21040
Refer to the bq21040 data sheet (SLUSCE2) for specific details on the charger ICs.
The ISET current control loop sets the maximum charge current. A system load may be connected to the
OUT pin, which takes away some of the charge current. Normally it is not recommended to operate the
device in pre-charge since the system load keeps the battery from recovering; but, since the precharge
current is fixed to 20% of its fast charge current, this restriction is not necessary.

Input voltage range is specified for normal operation. Input voltage between UVLO and 4.75 V has limited functionality, but does
not damage the IC nor present any safety issue with the battery. Input voltage above OVP and less than 30 Vdc has no
operation and will not damage the IC. Lower input voltage (closer to dropout operation) produces less heat dissipation and
potentially better performance.
The junction temperature rise above ambient is proportional to the power dissipation. Once the junction temperature reaches
approximately 125°C, thermal regulations reduces the programmed charge current.
Test Summary
The bq21040 EVM board requires a 5-VDC, 1-A power source to provide input power and a single-cell Liion or Li-polymer battery pack. The test setup connections and jumper setting selections are configured for
a stand-alone evaluation; but, can be changed to interface with external hardware such as a
microcontroller.

Test Summary

www.ti.com
Test Procedure Using a Single Cell Li-Ion Battery
1. Verify that the setup is correct and turn on the power supply, which was preset to 5 VDC, and 1 A for
the current-limit setting.
2. The bq21040 enters preconditioning mode if the battery is below the V(LOWV) threshold. In this mode,
the bq21040 pre-charges the battery with a low current (internally set to 20% of fast charge) until the
battery voltage reaches the V(LOWV) threshold or until the pre-charge timer expires. If the timer expires,
then the charge current is terminated and the bq21040 enters fault mode. The CHG LED turns off
when in timer fault mode. Toggling input power, toggling TS (BAT_EN) or battery replacement resets
fault mode.
3. When the battery voltage rises above the V(LOWV) threshold, the battery enters fast-charge constant
current mode. This EVM is programmed for 0.54 A of fast-charging current.
4. Once the battery reaches the voltage regulation threshold (4.2 V), the voltage control loop takes over
and the current tapers down as the battery reaches its full capacity.
5. The battery remains at the fast-charge mode until either the charge timer expires or the charge
termination current threshold is reached.
6. When the charge terminates, the CHG LED turns off.
7. Remove JMP3 (TS) and the charger turns on. This mode is Termination and Timer Disable Mode
(TTDM). This allows continuous power applied from the input to the output, regulated to 4.2 V with a
maximum current programmed by the ISET resistor. The system can operate without a battery in this
mode as long as the system does not exceed the supplied input current.
8. If the battery discharges to the recharge threshold, the charger starts fast charging, but the CHG LED
will not come on for the subsequent charges. Cycling the input power, replacing the battery, or toggling
the TS pin low starts a new charge with the CHG LED on.
9. Install the jumper on JP3 (TS) adjust R7 until VTS (voltage between TPS and GND) is around 1.23 V.
Charging should be suspended. Reduce voltage on TS pin by adjust R7 until charging resumes.
Further reduce the voltage on TS until VTS is around 278 mV and charging should be suspended.
NOTE: Loads across the battery can affect termination. The pre-term pin can be adjusted to offset
the system current. See data sheet for more details.
4.4
Alternate Test Methods
A 4-quadrant power supply that can source and sink current can be used in place of the battery pack to
evaluate the charger. It allows each transfer between pre-charge, constant-current and constant voltage
fast charge. Keep leads short to avoid adding too much inductance which may cause an interaction
between the power supply and charger. A large capacitor across the output helps cancel the inductance if
long leads are necessary.
