DESCRIPTION
The LP3918 is a fully integrated charger and multiregulator unit designed for CDMA cellular phones.
The LP3918 contains a Li-Ion battery charger, 7 low
noise low dropout (LDO) voltage regulators and a
high-speed serial interface to program on/off
conditions and output voltages of individual
regulators, and also to read status information from
the PMU.
The Li-Ion charger integrates a power FET, reverse
current blocking diode, sense resistor with current
monitor output, and requires only a few external
components. Charging is thermally regulated to
obtain the most efficient charging rate for a given
ambient temperature.
LDO regulators provide high PSRR and low noise
ideally suited for supplying power to both analog and
digital loads.

Device Description
The LP3918 Charge Management and Regulator Unit is designed to supply charger and voltage output
capabilities for mobile systems, e.g. CDMA handsets. The device provides a Li-Ion charging function and 7
regulated outputs. Communication with the device is via an I2C compatible serial interface that allows function
control and status read-back.
The battery charge management section provides a programmable CC/CV linear charge capability. Following a
normal charge cycle a maintenance mode keeps battery voltage between programmable levels. Power levels are
thermally regulated to obtain optimum charge levels over the ambient temperature range.

REGULATORS
7 Low dropout linear regulators provide programmable voltage outputs with current capabilities of 80mA, 150mA
and 300mA as given in the table below. LDO1, LDO2 and LDO3 are powered up by default with LDO1 reaching
regulation before LDO2 and LDO3 are started. LDO1, LDO3 and LDO7 can be disabled/enabled via the serial
interface. During power up LDO1 and LDO2 must reach their regulation voltage detection point for the device to
power up and remain powered. LDO4, LDO5 and LDO6 have external enable pins and may power up following
LDO2 as determined by their respective enable. Under voltage lockout oversees device start up with preset level
of 2.85V(typ).
POWER SUPPLY CONFIGURATIONS
At PMU start up, LDO1, LDO2 and LDO3 are always started with their default voltages. The start up sequence of
the LDO's is given below.
Startup Sequence
LDO1 -> LDO2 -> LDO3
LDO's with external enable control (LDO4, LDO5, LDO6) start immediately after LDO2 if enabled by logic high at
their respective control inputs.
LDO7 (and LDO1 and 3) may be programmed to enable/disable once PS_HOLD has been asserted.
Default voltages for the LDOs are shown in Table 1 and Table 2 shows the voltages that may be programmed
via the Serial Interface.
DEVICE PROGRAMMABILITY
An I2C compatible Serial Interface is used to communicate with the device to program a series of registers and
also to read status registers. These internal registers allow control over LDO outputs and their levels. The
charger functions may also be programmed to alter termination voltage, end of charge current, charger restart
voltage, full rate charge current, and also the charging mode.
This device internal logic is powered from LDO2.

Absolute Maximum Ratings are limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings are conditions under which
operation of the device is specified. Operating Ratings do not imply performance limits. For performance limits and associated test
conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics tables.
If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the TI Sales Office/Distributors for availability and specifications.
Care must be exercised where high power dissipation is likely. The maximum ambient temperature may have to be derated. Like the
Absolute Maximum power dissipation, the maximum power dissipation for operation depends on the ambient temperature. In
applications where high power dissipation and/or poor thermal dissipation exists, the maximum ambient temperature may have to be
derated. Maximum ambient temperature (TA_MAX) is dependent on the maximum power dissipation of the device in the application
(PD_MAX), and the junction to ambient thermal resistance of the device/package in the application (θJA), as given by the following
equation:TA_MAX = TJ_MAX-OP – (θJA X PDMAX )
Internal Thermal Shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent damage.
The human-body model is 100pF discharged through 1.5kΩ. The machine model is a 200pF capacitor discharged directly into each pin,

Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) is taken from thermal modelling result, performed under the conditions and guidelines set
forth in the JEDEC standard JESD51-7. The value of (θJA) of this product could fall within a wide range, depending on PWB material,
layout, and environmental conditions. In applications where high maximum power dissipation exists (high VIN, high IOUT), special care
must be paid to thermal dissipation issues in board design.

All electrical characteristics having room-temperature limits are tested during production with TJ = 25°C. All hot and cold limits are
specified by correlating the electrical characteristics to process and temperature variations and applying statistical process control.
Dropout voltage is the input-to-output voltage difference at which the output voltage is 100mV below its nominal value. This specification
does not apply in cases it implies operation with an input voltage below the 3.0V minimum appearing under Operating Ratings. For
example, this specification does not apply for devices having 1.5V outputs because the specification would imply operation with an input

All electrical characteristics having room-temperature limits are tested during production with TJ = 25°C. All hot and cold limits are
specified by correlating the electrical characteristics to process and temperature variations and applying statistical process control.
Dropout voltage is the input-to-output voltage difference at which the output voltage is 100mV below its nominal value. This specification
does not apply in cases it implies operation with an input voltage below the 3.0V minimum appearing under Operating Ratings. For
example, this specification does not apply for devices having 1.5V outputs because the specification would imply operation with an input
voltage at or about 1.5V.

All electrical characteristics having room-temperature limits are tested during production with TJ = 25°C. All hot and cold limits are
specified by correlating the electrical characteristics to process and temperature variations and applying statistical process control.
Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) is taken from thermal modelling result, performed under the conditions and guidelines set
forth in the JEDEC standard JESD51-7. The value of (θJA) of this product could fall within a wide range, depending on PWB material,
layout, and environmental conditions. In applications where high maximum power dissipation exists (high VIN, high IOUT), special care
must be paid to thermal dissipation issues in board design.
Full charge current is specified for CHG_IN = 4.5 to 6.0V. At higher input voltages, increased power dissipation may cause the thermal
regulation to limit the current to a safe level, resulting in longer charging time.
Specified by design. Not production tested.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
BATTERY CHARGE MANAGEMENT
A charge management system allowing the safe charge and maintenance of a Li-Ion battery is implemented on
the LP3918. This has a CC/CV linear charge capability with programmable battery regulation voltage and end of
charge current threshold. The charge current in the constant current mode is programmable and a maintenance
mode monitors for battery voltage drop to restart charging at a preset level. A USB charging mode is also
available with 2 charge current levels.
CHARGER FUNCTION
Following the correct detection of an input voltage at the charger pin the charger enters a pre-charge mode. In
this mode a constant current of 50mA is available to charge the battery to 3.0V. At this voltage level the charge
management applies the default (100mA) full rate constant current to raise the battery voltage to the termination
voltage level (default 4.2V). The full rate charge current may be programmed to a different level at this stage.
When termination voltage (VTERM) is reached, the charger is in constant voltage mode and a constant voltage of
4.2V is maintained. This mode is complete when the end of charge current (default 0.1C) is detected and the
charge management enters the maintenance mode. In maintenance mode the battery voltage is monitored for
the restart level (4.05V at the default settings) and the charge cycle is re-initiated to re-establish the termination
voltage level.
For start up the EOC function is disabled. This function should be enabled once start up is complete and a
battery has been detected. EOC is enabled via register CHGCNTL1, Table 9.
The full rate constant current rate of charge may be programmed to 19 levels from 50mA to 950mA. These
values are given in Table 4, and Table 11
The charge mode may be programmed to USB mode when the charger input is applied and the battery voltage is
above 3.0V. This provides two programmable current levels of 100mA and 450mA for a USB sourced supply
input at CHG_IN. Table 8
LDO Mode on device option LP3918TL-L
The charger circuit automatically enters an LDO mode if no battery is detected on insertion of the charger input
voltage. In LDO mode the battery pin is regulated to 4.2V and can source up to 1.0A of current. Normal operation
with a battery connected can be re-established via the serial interface. The serial interface allows the device to
switch between modes as required however care is required to ensure that LDO mode is not initiated while a
battery is present.

TERMINATION AND RESTART
The termination and restart voltage levels are determined by the data in the VTERM[1:0] and PROG_VSTRT[1:0]
bits in the control register. The restart voltage is programmed relative to the selected termination voltage.
The Termination voltages available are 4.1V, 4.2V (default), 4.3V, and 4.4V.
The Restart voltages are determined relative to the termination voltage level and may be set to 50mV, 100mV,
150mV (default), and 200mV below the set termination voltage level.

LDO Information
OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
The LP3918 has 7 LDO's of which 3 are enabled by default, LDO's 1,2 and 3 are powered up during the power
up sequence. LDO4, 5 and 6 are separately, externally enabled and will follow LDO2 in start up if their respective
enable pin is pulled high. LDO2, LDO3 and LDO7 can be enabled/disabled via the serial interface.
LDO2 must remain in regulation otherwise the device will power down. While LDO1 is enabled this must also be
in regulation for the device to remain powered. If LDO1 is disabled via I2C interface the device will not shut
down.

EXTERNAL CAPACITORS
The Low Drop Out Linear Voltage regulators on the LP3918 require external capacitors to ensure stable outputs.
The LDO's on the LP3918 are specifically designed to use small surface mount ceramic capacitors which require
minimum board space. These capacitors must be correctly selected for good performance
INPUT CAPACITOR
Input capacitors are required for correct operation. It is recommended that a 10µF capacitor be connected
between each of the voltage input pins and ground (this capacitance value may be increased without limit). This
capacitor must be located a distance of not more than 1cm from the input pin and returned to a clean analogue
ground. A ceramic capacitor is recommended although a good quality tantalum or film capacitor may be used at
the input.
Important: Tantalum capacitors can suffer catastrophic failures due to surge current when connected to a lowimpedance source of power (like a battery or a very large capacitor). If a tantalum capacitor is used at the input,
it must be specified by the manufacturer to have surge current rating sufficent for the application. There are no
requirements for the ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) on the input capacitor, but tolerance and temperature
coefficient must be considered when selecting the capacitor to ensure the capacitance will remain within its
operational range over the entire operating temperature range and conditions.

Output Capacitor
Correct selection of the output capacitor is critical to ensure stable operation in the intended application.The
output capacitor must meet all the requirements specified in the recommended capacitor table over all conditions
in the application. These conditions include DC-bias, frequency and temperature. Unstable operation will result if
the capacitance drops below the minimum specified value. The LP3918 is designed specifically to work with very
small ceramic output capacitors. The LDO's on the LP3918 are specifically designed to be used with X7R and
X5R type capacitors. With these capacitors selection of the capacitor for the application is dependant on the
range of operating conditions and temperature range for that application. (See section on Capacitor
Characteristics). It is also recommended that the output capacitor be placed within 1cm from the output pin and
returned to a clean ground line.
Capacitor Characteristics
CAP VALUE (% of NOM. 1 PF)
The LDO's on the LP3918 are designed to work with ceramic capacitors on the input and output to take
advantage of the benifits they offer. For capacitance values around 1µF, ceramic capacitors give the circuit
designer the best design options in terms of low cost and minimal area. For both input and output capacitors
careful interpretation of the capacitor specification is required to ensure correct device operation. The capacitor
value can change greatly dependant on the conditions of operation and capacitor type. In particular to ensure
stability, the output capacitor selection should take account of all the capacitor parameters to ensure that the
specification is met within the application. Capacitance value can vary with DC bias conditions as well as
temperature and frequency of operation. Capacitor values will also show some decrease over time due to aging.
The capacitor parameters are also dependant on the particular case size with smaller sizes giving poorer
performance figures in general.

DC BIAS (V)
Figure 13. Graph Showing A Typical Variation in Capacitance vs DC Bias
As an example Figure 13 shows a typical graph showing a comparison of capacitor case sizes in a Capacitance
vs DC Bias plot. As shown in the graph, as a result of DC Bias condition the capacitance value may drop below
minimum capacitance value given in the recommended capacitor table (0.7µF in this case). Note that the graph
shows the capacitance out of spec for 0402 case size capacitor at higher bias voltages. It is therefore
recommended that the capacitor manufacturers specifications for the nominal value capacitor are consulted for
all conditions as some capacitor sizes (e.g 0402) may not be suitable in the actual application. Ceramic
capacitors have the lowest ESR values, thus making them best for eliminating high frequency noise. The ESR of
a typical 1µF ceramic capacitor is in the range of 20mΩ to 40mΩ, and also meets the ESR requirements for
stability. The temperature performance of ceramic capacitors varies by type. Capacitor type X7R is specified with
a tolerance of ±15% over temperature range -55ºC to +125ºC. The X5R has similar tolerance over the reduced
temperature range -55ºC to +85ºC. Most large value ceramic capacitors (
