FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
■
The LTC®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.

■
When the input supply is removed, the LTC4002 automatically enters a low current sleep mode, dropping the battery
drain current to 10µA. 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.

(DFN/SO-8)
COMP (Pin 1/Pin 1): Compensation, Soft-Start and Shutdown Control Pin. 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 0.47µF (or larger) capacitor and
a 2.2k series resistor. A 100µA 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 0.1µF or higher capacitor is required at the VCC pin with the lead length kept
to a minimum. A 10µF 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 120µs, the N-channel MOSFET turns off and a 25µA
current source is connected from the CHRG pin to GND.
When the timer runs out or the input supply is removed,
the 25µA current source is turned off and the CHRG pin
becomes high impedance.
BAT (Pin 7/Pin 6): Battery Sense Input. A bypass capacitor of 22µF 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 10µA.
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 10kΩ 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

OPERATIO
The LTC4002 is a constant current, constant voltage
Li-Ion battery charger controller that uses a current mode
PWM step-down (buck) switching architecture. 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

mode, dropping ICC to 10µA. This will greatly reduce the
current drain on the battery and increase the standby time.
A 10kΩ 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 0°C to 50°C
window (with DALE NTHS-1206N02).

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 120µs, the
N-channel MOSFET turns off and a weak 25µA current
source to ground is connected to the CHRG pin. This weak
25µA 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.

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 = 10µA) 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 25µA 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

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 50mΩ.
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 100µA 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 0.47µF capacitor, time to reach
full charge current is about 2.35ms. Capacitance can be
increased up to 1µF 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 10kΩ thermistor (DALE NTHS-1206N02) from
the NTC pin to ground. If the temperature rises to 50°C, the
resistance of the NTC will be approximately 4.1kΩ. With
the 85µA 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 0°C
(RNTC ≅ 28.4kΩ) with 85µA 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.

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 0.2Ω and
the battery impedance is raised to 4Ω 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 = 68mΩ
Choose the inductor for about 65% ripple current at the
maximum VIN:

Board Layout Suggestions
Next, choose the P-channel MOSFET. The Si6435ADQ in
a TSSOP-8 package with RDS(ON) = 42mΩ (nom), 55mΩ
(max) offers a small solution. The maximum power dissipation with VIN = 5V and VBAT = 4V at 50°C 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.

TJ = 50°C + (0.099W)(65°C/W) = 56.5°C
CIN is chosen for an RMS current rating of about 0.8A at
85°C. The output capacitor is chosen for an ESR similar to
the battery impedance of about 100mΩ. The ripple voltage
on the BAT pin is:

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.
