TYPICAL APPLICATION
The LTC®4065L is a complete constant-current/constantvoltage linear charger for single-cell lithium-ion batteries.
Its small size and ability to accurately regulate low charge
currents make the LTC4065L especially well-suited for
portable applications using low capacity rechargeable
lithium-ion cells. Furthermore, LTC4065L is specifically
designed to work within USB power specifications.
The CHRG pin indicates when charge current has dropped
to ten percent of its programmed value (C/10). An internal
timer terminates charging according to battery manufacturer specifications.
The LTC4065L-4.1/LTC4065LX-4.1 features a constantvoltage float voltage of 4.1V. This 4.1V version of the
standard LTC4065L/LTC4065LX is intended for back-up
or high ambient temperature applications. Under these
conditions, a reduced float voltage will trade-off initial
cell capacity for the benefit of increased capacity retention
over the life of the battery. A reduced float voltage also
minimizes swelling in prismatic and polymer cells.
When the input supply (wall adapter or USB supply) is
removed, the LTC4065L automatically enters a low current
state, dropping battery drain current to less than 1µA.
With power applied, LTC4065L can be put into shutdown
mode, reducing the supply current to less than 20µA.
The full-featured LTC4065L also includes automatic
recharge, low-battery charge conditioning (trickle
charging) and soft-start (to limit inrush current).

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: The LTC4065L is tested under pulsed load conditions such that
TJ ≈ TA. The LTC4065L is guaranteed to meet performance specifications from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls.
Note 3: Failure to solder the exposed backside of the package to the PC
board ground plane will result in a thermal resistance much higher than
rated.

0.08
TYP
Note 4: Although the LTC4065L functions properly at 3.75V input, full
charge current requires an input voltage greater than the desired final battery voltage per the ΔVUVCL1 specification.
Note 5: IC/10 is expressed as a fraction of measured full charge current
with indicated PROG resistor.
Note 6: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 7: This parameter is not applicable to the LTC4065LX/
LTC4065LX-4.1.

PIN FUNCTIONS
GND (Pin 1, Exposed Pad Pin 7): Ground. The Exposed
Pad must be soldered to the PCB ground to provide both
electrical contact and rated thermal performance.
CHRG (Pin 2): Open-Drain Charge Status Output. The
charge status indicator pin has three states: pull-down,
pulse at 2Hz and high impedance state. This output can
be used as a logic interface or as an LED driver. When the
battery is being charged, the CHRG pin is pulled low by
an internal N-channel MOSFET. When the charge current
drops to 10% of the full-scale current, the CHRG pin is
forced to a high impedance state. If the battery voltage
remains below 2.9V for one quarter of the charge time, the
battery is considered defective and the CHRG pin pulses
at a frequency of 2Hz.
BAT (Pin 3): Charge Current Output. Provides charge current to the battery and regulates the final float voltage (4.2V
for LTC4065L/LTC4065LX and 4.1V for LTC4065L-4.1/
LTC4065LX-4.1). An internal precision resistor divider
on this pin sets the float voltage and is disconnected in
shutdown mode.
VCC (Pin 4): Positive Input Supply Voltage. This pin provides power to the charger. VCC can range from 3.75V
to 5.5V. This pin should be bypassed with at least a 1µF
capacitor. When VCC is within 32mV of the BAT pin voltage, the LTC4065L enters shutdown mode, dropping IBAT
to about 1µA.
EN (Pin 5): Enable Input Pin. Pulling this pin above the
manual shutdown threshold (VMS is typically 0.82V) puts
the LTC4065L in shutdown mode. In shutdown mode, the
LTC4065L has less than 20µA supply current and less
than 1µA battery drain current. Enable is the default state,
but the pin should be tied to GND if unused.
PROG (Pin 6): Charge Current Program and Charge
Current Monitor Pin. Connecting a 1% resistor, RPROG,
to ground programs the charge current. When charging
in constant-current mode, this pin servos to 1V. In all
modes, the voltage on this pin can be used to measure
the charge current using the following formula:
V
IBAT = PROG • 205
RPROG
Floating the PROG pin sets the charge current to zero.

an internal P-channel power MOSFET, the charger uses
a constant-current/constant-voltage charge algorithm
with programmable current. Charge current can be programmed up to 250mA with a final float voltage accuracy
of ±0.6%. The CHRG open-drain status output indicates
if C/10 has been reached. No blocking diode or external
sense resistor is required; thus, the basic charger circuit
requires only two external components. An internal termination timer and trickle charge low-battery conditioning
adhere to battery manufacturer safety guidelines (Note:
The LTC4065LX does not include this trickle charge feature). Furthermore, the LTC4065L is capable of operating
from a USB power source.
An internal thermal limit reduces the programmed charge
current if the die temperature attempts to rise above a
preset value of approximately 115°C. This feature protects
the LTC4065L from excessive temperature and allows the
user to push the limits of the power handling capability of a given circuit board without risk of damaging the
LTC4065L or external components. Another benefit of the
LTC4065L thermal limit is that charge current can be set
according to typical, not worst-case, ambient temperatures for a given application with the assurance that the
charger will automatically reduce the current in worstcase conditions.
The charge cycle begins when the following conditions are
met: the voltage at the VCC pin exceeds 3.6V and approximately 80mV above the BAT pin voltage, a program resistor is present from the PROG pin to ground and the EN pin
is pulled below the shutdown threshold (typically 0.82V).
If the BAT pin voltage is below 2.9V, the charger goes into
trickle charge mode, charging the battery at one-tenth
the programmed charge current to bring the cell voltage
up to a safe level for charging (Note: The LTC4065LX/
LTC4065LX-4.1 does not include this trickle charge feature). If the BAT pin voltage is above 4.1V for LTC4065L/
LTC4065LX or 4.0V for LTC4065L-4.1/LTC4065LX-4.1,
the charger will not charge the battery as the cell is near
full capacity. Otherwise, the charger goes into the fast
charge constant-current mode.
When the BAT pin approaches the final float voltage (4.2V
for LTC4065L/LTC4065LX or 4.1V for LTC4065L-4.1/
LTC4065LX-4.1), the LTC4065L enters constant-voltage
mode and the charge current begins to decrease. When
the current drops to 10% of the full-scale charge current,
an internal comparator turns off the N-channel MOSFET
on the CHRG pin and the pin assumes a high impedance
state.
An internal timer sets the total charge time, tTIMER (typically 4.5 hours). When this time elapses, the charge cycle
terminates and the CHRG pin assumes a high impedance
state. To restart the charge cycle, remove the input voltage and reapply it or momentarily force the EN pin above
VMS (typically 0.82V). The charge cycle will automatically
restart if the BAT pin voltage falls below VRECHRG (typically 4.1V).
When the input voltage is not present, the battery drain
current is reduced to less than 4µA. The LTC4065L can
also be shut down by pulling the EN pin above the shutdown threshold voltage. This reduces input quiescent
current to less than 20µA and battery drain current to
less than 1µA.
Programming Charge Current
The charge current is programmed using a single resistor
from the PROG pin to ground. The battery charge current
is 205 times the current out of the PROG pin. The program
resistor and the charge current are calculated using the
following equations:
RPROG = 205 •
1V
IBAT
, IBAT =
205V
RPROG
The charge current out of the BAT pin can be determined
at any time by monitoring the PROG pin voltage and using
the following equation:

IBAT = PROG • 205

LTC4065L-4.1/LTC4065LX-4.1
OPERATION
Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
An internal undervoltage lockout circuit monitors the input
voltage and keeps the charger in undervoltage lockout
until VCC rises above 3.6V and approximately 80mV above
the BAT pin voltage. The 3.6V UVLO circuit has a built-in
hysteresis of approximately 0.6V and the automatic shutdown threshold has a built-in hysteresis of approximately
50mV. During undervoltage lockout conditions, maximum
battery drain current is 4µA and maximum supply current
is 11µA.
Shutdown Mode
The LTC4065L can be disabled by pulling the EN pin above
the shutdown threshold (approximately 0.82V). In shutdown mode, the battery drain current is reduced to less
than 1µA and the supply current to about 20µA.
Timer and Recharge
The LTC4065L has an internal termination timer that
starts when an input voltage greater than the undervoltage lockout threshold is applied to VCC, or when leaving
shutdown the battery voltage is less than the recharge
threshold.
At power-up or when exiting shutdown, if the battery voltage is less than the recharge threshold, the charge time
is set to 4.5 hours. If the battery voltage is greater than
the recharge threshold at power-up or when exiting shutdown, the timer will not start and charging is prevented
since the battery is at or near full capacity.
Once the charge cycle terminates, the LTC4065L continuously monitors the BAT pin voltage using a comparator
with a 2ms filter time. When the average battery voltage
falls 100mV below the float voltage (which corresponds
10
to 80% to 90% battery capacity), a new charge cycle is
initiated and a 2.25 hour timer begins. This ensures that
the battery is kept at, or near, a fully charged condition and
eliminates the need for periodic charge cycle initiations.
The CHRG output assumes a strong pull-down state during recharge cycles until C/10 is reached when it transitions to a high impendance state.
Trickle Charge and Defective Battery Detection
At the beginning of a charge cycle, if the battery voltage
is low (below 2.9V), the charger goes into trickle charge,
reducing the charge current to 10% of the full-scale current (Note: The LTC4065LX has full charge current at lowbattery voltage). If the low-battery voltage persists for
one quarter of the total time (1.125 hour), the battery is
assumed to be defective, the charge cycle is terminated
and the CHRG pin output pulses at a frequency of 2Hz with
a 75% duty cycle. If for any reason the battery voltage
rises above 2.9V, the charge cycle will be restarted. To
restart the charge cycle (i.e., when the defective battery
is replaced with a discharged battery), simply remove the
input voltage and reapply it or temporarily pull the EN pin
above the shutdown threshold.
CHRG Status Output Pin
The charge status indicator pin has three states: pulldown, pulse at 2Hz (see Trickle Charge and Defective
Battery Detection) and high impedance. The pull-down
state indicates that the LTC4065L is in a charge cycle. A
high impedance state indicates that the charge current
has dropped below 10% of the full-scale current or the
LTC4065L is disabled. Figure 2 shows the CHRG status
under various conditions.

OPERATION
Charge Current Soft-Start and Soft-Stop
The LTC4065L includes a soft-start circuit to minimize
the inrush current at the start of a charge cycle. When a
charge cycle is initiated, the charge current ramps from
zero to the full-scale current over a period of approximately 170µs. Likewise, internal circuitry slowly ramps
the charge current from full-scale to zero when the charger is shut off or self terminates. This has the effect of
minimizing the transient current load on the power supply
during start-up and charge termination.
Constant-Current/Constant-Voltage/
Constant-Temperature
The LTC4065L use a unique architecture to charge a battery in a constant-current, constant-voltage and constanttemperature fashion. Figure 1 shows a simplified block
diagram of the LTC4065L. Three of the amplifier feedback
loops shown control the constant-current, CA, constantvoltage, VA, and constant-temperature, TA modes. A
fourth amplifier feedback loop, MA, is used to increase the
output impedance of the current source pair; M1 and M2
(note that M1 is the internal P-channel power MOSFET). It
ensures that the drain current of M1 is exactly 205 times
greater than the drain current of M2.
Amplifiers CA and VA are used in separate feedback loops
to force the charger into constant-current or constantvoltage mode, respectively. Diodes D1 and D2 provide
priority to either the constant-current or constant-voltage
loop, whichever is trying to reduce the charge current
the most. The output of the other amplifier saturates low
which effectively removes its loop from the system. When
in constant-current mode, CA servos the voltage at the
PROG pin to be precisely 1V. VA servos its inverting input
to an internal reference voltage when in constant-voltage
mode and the internal resistor divider, made up of R1 and
R2, ensures that the battery voltage is maintained at 4.2V
for LTC4065L/LTC4065LX or 4.1V for LTC4065L-4.1/
LTC4065LX-4.1. The PROG pin voltage gives an indication of the charge current during constant-voltage mode
as discussed in “Programming Charge Current”.
The transconductance amplifier, TA, limits the die temperature to approximately 115°C when in constant-temperature mode. Diode D3 ensures that TA does not affect
the charge current when the die temperature is below
approximately 115°C. The PROG pin voltage continues
to give an indication of the charge current.
In typical operation, the charge cycle begins in constantcurrent mode with the current delivered to the battery equal
to 205V/RPROG. If the power dissipation of the LTC4065L
results in the junction temperature approaching 115°C,
the amplifier (TA) will begin decreasing the charge current
to limit the die temperature to approximately 115°C. As
the battery voltage rises, the LTC4065L either returns to
constant-current mode or enters constant-voltage mode
straight from constant-temperature mode. Regardless of
mode, the voltage at the PROG pin is proportional to the
current delivered to the battery.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Undervoltage Charge Current Limiting (UVCL)
USB and Wall Adapter Power
The LTC4065L includes undervoltage charge (ΔVUVCL1)
current limiting that prevents full charge current until the
input supply voltage reaches approximately 200mV above
the battery voltage. This feature is particularly useful if the
LTC4065L is powered from a supply with long leads (or
any relatively high output impedance).
Although the LTC4065L allows charging from a USB port,
a wall adapter can also be used to charge Li-Ion batteries.
Figure 3 shows an example of how to combine wall adapter
and USB power inputs. A P-channel MOSFET, MP1, is used
to prevent back conducting into the USB port when a wall
adapter is present and Schottky diode, D1, is used to prevent USB power loss through the 1k pull-down resistor.
For example, USB-powered systems tend to have highly
variable source impedances (due primarily to cable quality
and length). A transient load combined with such impedance can easily trip the UVLO threshold and turn the
charger off unless undervoltage charge current limiting
is implemented.
Stability Considerations
The LTC4065L contains two control loops: constantvoltage and constant-current. The constant-voltage loop
is stable without any compensation when a battery is
connected with low impedance leads. Excessive lead
length, however, may add enough series inductance to
require a bypass capacitor of at least 1µF from BAT to
GND. Furthermore, a 4.7µF capacitor with a 0.2Ω to 1Ω
series resistor from BAT to GND is required to keep ripple
voltage low when the battery is disconnected.
Consider a situation where the LTC4065L is operating
under normal conditions and the input supply voltage
begins to droop (e.g., an external load drags the input
supply down). If the input voltage reaches VBAT + ΔVUVCL1
(approximately 220mV above the battery voltage), undervoltage charge current limiting will begin to reduce
the charge current in an attempt to maintain ΔVUVCL1
between the VCC input and the BAT output of the IC. The
LTC4065L will continue to operate at the reduced charge
current until the input supply voltage is increased or voltage mode reduces the charge current further.
High value capacitors with very low ESR (especially
ceramic) may reduce the constant-voltage loop phase
margin. Ceramic capacitors up to 22µF may be used
in parallel with a battery, but larger ceramics should be
decoupled with 0.2Ω to 1Ω of series resistance.

LTC4065L-4.1/LTC4065LX-4.1
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
In constant-current mode, the PROG pin is in the feedback
loop, not the battery. Because of the additional pole created by the PROG pin capacitance, capacitance on this pin
must be kept to a minimum. With no additional capacitance on the PROG pin, the charger is stable with program resistor values as high as 25k. However, additional
capacitance on this node reduces the maximum allowed
program resistor. The pole frequency at the PROG pin
should be kept above 100kHz. Therefore, if the PROG pin
is loaded with a capacitance, CPROG, the following equation should be used to calculate the maximum resistance
value for RPROG:
RPROG ≤
battery current as shown in Figure 4. A 10k resistor has
been added between the PROG pin and the filter capacitor
to ensure stability.
Power Dissipation
Due to the low charge currents, it is unlikely that the
LTC4065L will reduce charge current through thermal
feedback. Nonetheless, the LTC4065L power dissipation
can be approximated by:
PD = (VCC – VBAT) • IBAT
Where PD is the power dissipated, VCC is the input supply
voltage, VBAT is the battery voltage and IBAT is the charge
current. It is not necessary to perform any worst-case
power dissipation scenarios because the LTC4065L will
automatically reduce the charge current to maintain the
die temperature at approximately 115°C. However, the
approximate ambient temperature at which the thermal
feedback begins to protect the IC is:
1
2π • 10 5 • CPROG
Average, rather than instantaneous, battery current may
be of interest to the user. For example, if a switching power
supply operating in low current mode is connected in
parallel with the battery, the average current being pulled
out of the BAT pin is typically of more interest than the
instantaneous current pulses. In such a case, a simple RC
filter can be used on the PROG pin to measure the average

LTC4065L-4.1/LTC4065LX-4.1
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Example: Consider an LTC4065L operating from a 5.5V
wall adapter providing 250mA to a 3V Li-Ion battery. The
ambient temperature above which the LTC4065L will begin
to reduce the 250mA charge current is approximately:
TA = 115°C – (5.5V – 3V) • (250mA) • 60°C/W
TA = 115°C – 0.625W • 60°C/W = 115°C – 37.5°C
TA = 77.5°C
Charging at such high ambient temperatures is not recommended by battery manufacturers.
Furthermore, the voltage at the PROG pin will change
proportionally with the charge current as discussed in
the Programming Charge Current section.
It is important to remember that LTC4065L applications do not need to be designed for worst-case thermal
conditions since the IC will automatically reduce power
dissipation when the junction temperature reaches
approximately 115°C.
Board Layout Considerations
In order to deliver maximum charge current under all
conditions, it is critical that the exposed metal pad on the
backside of the LTC4065L package is soldered to the PC
board ground. Correctly soldered to a 2500mm2 doublesided 1 oz. copper board the LTC4065L has a thermal
resistance of approximately 60°C/W. Failure to make thermal contact between the Exposed Pad on the backside of
the package and the copper board will result in thermal
resistances far greater than 60°C/W.
VCC Bypass Capacitor
Many types of capacitors can be used for input bypassing;
however, caution must be exercised when using multilayer ceramic capacitors. Because of the self-resonant and
high Q characteristics of some types of ceramic capacitors, high voltage transients can be generated under some
start-up conditions, such as connecting the charger input
to a live power source. For more information, refer to
Application Note 88.
