The LTC®1980 integrates PWM power control for charging a battery and converting the battery voltage to a regulated output or simultaneously charging the battery while powering a system load from an unregulated AC wall adapter. Combining these features into a single IC produces a smaller area and lower cost solution compared to presently available multi-IC solutions. The LTC1980 shares the discrete components for both the battery charger and the DC/DC converter thus minimizing size and cost relative to dual controller solutions. Both the battery charger and DC/DC converter use a current mode flyback topology for high efficiency and excellent transient response. Optional Burst Mode operation and power-down mode allow power density, efficiency and output ripple to be tailored to the application. The LTC1980 provides a complete Li-Ion battery charger with charge termination timer, preset Li-Ion battery voltages, overvoltage and undervoltage protection, and userprogrammable constant-current charging. Automatic battery recharging, shorted-cell detection, and open-drain C/10 and wall plug detect outputs are also provided. User programming allows NiMH and NiCd battery chemistries to be charged as well.

PI FU CTIO S
PROG (Pin 1): Charge Current Ratio Programming Pin. Programs the full charge current when the charger is in the constant current mode. A resistor placed between the PROG pin and the PROGT pin (Pin 2) determines the charge current. The PROG pin connects to an open drain MOSFET which turns on for full current and is off when trickle charging. PROGT (Pin 2): Trickle Charge Programming Pin. Programs the trickle charge current for a deeply discharged battery. Two resistors are used, one between the PROGT pin and CAOUT (Pin 22) and another from PROGT to ground. A capacitor between the PROGT pin and VC (Pin 4) provides compensation for the constant current feedback loop. REGFB (Pin 3): DC/DC Converter Feedback Pin. This pin is used to program the DC/DC converter output voltage when the LTC1980 is in the DC/DC (regulator) converter mode. An external resistor divider from VREG to REGFB to ground programs the output voltage. The virtual reference voltage (VREF) on this pin is 1.225V. A series RC from the REGFB pin to VC (Pin 4) provides pole-zero compensation for the regulator outer loop. VC (Pin 4): Control Signal of the Inner Loop of the Current Mode PWM. A common current mode loop is used by the battery charger and voltage regulator functions. Minimum duty factor (measured on BGTDR (Pin 14) in regulator mode and RGTDR (Pin 11) in charger mode) occurs at approximately 1V. Duty factor increases as VC increases. This part includes slope compensation, so there is some variation in VC for minimum and maximum duty factor as VREG or VBAT is varied. LDOFB (Pin 5): Low Dropout Regulator Feedback Pin. This pin is used to program the low dropout linear regulator output voltage. An external resistor divider from the output of the LDO regulator (drain of the external MOSFET) to LDOFB to ground programs the output voltage. The virtual reference voltage on this pin is 1.225V. LDODRV (Pin 6): Low Dropout Error Amplifier Output. This pin drives the gate of an external PMOS pass transistor. This pin is pulled up to VREG (shutting off the pass transistor) if MODE (Pin 16) is grounded or if undervoltage occurs. VREG (Pin 7): Connection Point to the DC/DC Converter Side of the Combo Charger/Converter Circuit. WA (Pin 8): Wall Adapter Comparator Input. An external resistor divider from the wall adapter output to WA to ground sets the threshold which determines if charging can occur. If the wall adapter is below this threshold, the LTC1980 assumes the wall adapter is not present and the charger shuts down. Wall adapter sense threshold is set higher than the DC/DC converter output voltage to insure correct operation. BATT1 (Pin 9): L ogic Input Pin for Selecting Preprogrammed Li-Ion Charge Voltage. See Truth Table logic settings. BATT2 (Pin 10): L ogic Input Pin for Selecting Preprogrammed Li-Ion Charge Voltage. The following combinations of BATT1 and BATT2 select the correct LiIon charge voltage. See Truth Table.

RGTDR (Pin 11): DC/DC Converter (Regulator) Side Gate Drive Pin. This pin provides gate drive to the external MOSFET (REG-FET) that connects to VREG via the transformer. PGND (Pin 12): Power Ground. Refer to the Applications Information section for proper use of ground and power ground connections. VBIAS1 (Pin 13): Internally Generated Power Bus. Bypass this pin with a 1µF or larger ceramic capacitor (or other low ESR capacitor) to PGND (Pin 12). Do not connect any load to this pin. BGTDR (Pin 14): DC/DC Converter (Battery) Side Gate Drive Pin. This pin provides gate drive to the external MOSFET (BAT-FET) that connects to VBAT via the transformer.

REG (Pin 15): Bidirectional Regulator Mode Control Pin. A pull-up resistor is required between this pin and VBIAS2. This pin is open when charging normally, has a weak pulldown (approximately 5µA) when conditioning the battery and a strong pull-down when in regulator mode. Pulling this pin low forces the IC into regulator mode. MODE (Pin 16): Selects different operating modes in both charger and DC/DC converter configurations. Also enables and disables Burst Mode operation. See Mode Pin Operation table in Application section. TIMER (Pin 17): A timing capacitor on this pin determines the normal charge time for charge termination. C(µF) = 0.25 • Time (Hours) VBAT (Pin 18): This pin connects to the positive terminal of the battery and the battery side of the power converter. VBIAS2 (Pin 19): Internally Generated Voltage. Bypass this pin with a 1µF or larger ceramic capacitor (or other low ESR capacitor). Do not connect any load to this pin. GND (Pin 20): Signal Ground. This pin should Kelvinconnect to the current sense resistor (RSENSE). ISENSE (Pin 21): Current Sense Input Pin. Connects internally to a current amplifier and zero current comparator. This pin should Kelvin-connect to the current sense resistor (RSENSE) . CAOUT (Pin 22): Current Amplifier Output. A program resistor connects between this pin and PROGT (Pin 2) to set the charge current (in constant-current mode). OVP (Pin 23): Overvoltage Protection. This pin connects to the tap on an optional external voltage divider connected across the battery. This allows nonstandard float voltages to be used for the battery charger. Overvoltage, restart and undervoltage thresholds will also be affected by the external voltage division ratio. To use this pin, BATT1 (Pin 9) must float. SS (Pin 24): Soft-Start. A capacitor between this pin and ground sets the battery charge ramp rate. Battery charge current is very low the moment after the converter switches from DC/DC converter (regulator) mode to battery charger mode then ramps up to final battery charge current from there. This insures that the wall adapter is not loaded down with a large inrush current that could prevent correct battery charger operation. The same capacitor, which sets the soft-start ramp rate, also sets the compensation for the battery float voltage control loop.

OPERATIO
The LTC1980 is an IC designed to provide a regulated voltage to a system load from an unregulated or regulated wall adapter, or from a battery and also charge a battery, thereby providing an uninterruptable power source for the system. When the wall adapter is present it provides power to the system load and, if needed, a portion of the power can be used to simultaneously charge the battery. If the wall adapter is removed, the LTC1980 uses the battery as a power source to continue providing a regulated output voltage to power the system. Combining these two functions into a single IC reduces circuit area compared to presently available solutions

(Figure 1). The unique bidirectional power converter topology (Figure 2) accounts for much of the area savings. A transformer based design allows the wall adapter voltage to be less than or greater than the battery voltage. The LTC1980 includes a 300kHz DC/DC PWM converter that operates in two modes. The first mode is when the wall adapter is present and the LTC1980 is used to charge the battery using a constant-current/constant-voltage charge scheme. The second mode is when the wall adapter is removed and the battery powers the LTC1980 and the DC/DC converter generates a regulated output voltage.

OPERATIO
Lithium-Ion Battery Charger Operation With the wall adapter power applied, the LTC1980 operates as a constant-current/constant-voltage PWM battery charger, with a portion of the adapter current used for charging and the rest flowing to the system load through an optional low dropout regulator. A charge cycle begins when the voltage at VREG exceeds the undervoltage lockout threshold level and the IC is enabled via the MODE pin. If the battery has been deeply discharged and the battery voltage is less than 2.7V, the charger will begin with the programmed trickle charge current. When the battery exceeds 2.7V, the charger begins the constant-current portion of the charge cycle with the charge current equal to the programmed level. As the battery accepts charge, the voltage increases. When the battery voltage reaches the recharge threshold, the programmable timer begins. Constant-current charging continues until the battery approaches the programmed charge voltage of 4.1V or 4.2V/cell at which time the charge current will begin to drop, signaling the beginning of the constant-voltage portion of the charge cycle. The charger

will maintain the programmed preset float voltage across the battery until the timer terminates the charge cycle. During trickle charging, if the battery voltage remains below 2.7V for 1/4 of the total programmed charge time, the battery may be defective and the charge cycle ends. Also, if a battery open circuit is detected, the charge cycle ends immediately. The charger can be shut down by pulling the REG pin low, although the timer will continue until it times out. Power Converter Operation from Battery When the AC adapter is removed, the LTC1980 operates as a DC/DC PWM converter using the battery for input power to provide a regulated output voltage for the system load. The LTC1980 is a current mode switcher. This means that the switch duty cycle is directly controlled by switch current rather than by output voltage or current. Battery charger operation will be described for the simplified diagram (Figure 3). At the start of the oscillator cycle, latch U9 is set causing M2 to turn on. When switch current reaches a predetermined level M2 turns off and M1 turns on. This level is set by the control voltage at the output of error amplifier U10.

OPERATIO
Transformer current is sensed across RS, gained up via U6 and sampled through switch SW1. The current in R7 is a scaled-down replica of the battery charging current pulses from the transformer. During battery charging, switch SW2 is in the down position connecting R7, R8, R9 and C4 to the inverting input of amplifier U10 forming an integrator which closes the outer loop of the converter and establishes constant current charging. U12 is a gm amplifier that clamps U10 as the battery float voltage is reached. R10 and R11 set the float voltage and C5 compensates this loop and provides a soft-start function.
APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Setting Battery Charge Current
Referring to the simplified schematic in Figure 4, the average current through R7 must equal the current through RTRKL with switch SW3 open. This leads to the equation for setting the trickle charge current:
RTRKL =
VREF • R7 ITRICKLE • RS • A V
Normal charge current is set via the parallel combination of RTRKL and RCHRG which leads to the following equation for RCHRG
RCHRG = VREF • R7
(INORMAL – ITRICKLE) • RS • A V

DC/DC Converter Operation When the LTC1980 is operating as a DC/DC converter, M1 turns on at the start of the oscillator cycle. When transformer current reaches a predetermined level set by U10’s output voltage, M1 turns off and M2 turns on. SW2 is in the up position forming an integrator with zero, which compares the output voltage (via R1 and R2 to reference U11 establishing the output voltage. where AV = 2.44 and VREF = 1.225V. The suggested value for R7 is 10k. Setting the Float Voltage Pin selectable 4.1V, 4.2V, 8.2V, and 8.4V Li-Ion float voltages are available. Other float voltages may be set via external resistors.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
An external resistor divider (Figure 3) can be used to program other float voltages. Resistor values are found using the following equation: R10 = R11 • (VFLOAT – VREF)/VREF where VREF = 1.225V. The suggested value for R11 is 100k. Use 1% or better resistors. Setting DC/DC Converter Output Voltage From Figure 5, select the following resistors based on output voltage VREG: R8 = R14 • (VREG – VREF)/VREF where VREF = 1.225V, suggested value for R14 is 100k, 1%. LDO Operation The LTC1980 provides an uninterrupted power supply for the system load. When a wall adapter is connected and operating, power is taken from the wall adapter to charge the batteries and supply power to the system. In applications where an unregulated wall adapter is used but a regulated voltage is needed by the system, an external Pchannel MOSFET pass transistor may be added to the LTC1980 to create a low dropout linear regulator. From Figure 5, select the following resistors based on the output voltage VLDO: R5 = R6 • (VLDO – VREF)/VREF where VREF = 1.225V, suggested value for R6 is 100k, 1%. This is the voltage that will be seen when operating from a higher voltage wall adapter. When operating from the batteries (as a regulator), the load will see either this voltage or the voltage set by the PWM regulator, whichever is less, minus any drops in the pass transistor. Placing a large-valued capacitor from the drain of this MOSFET to ground creates output compensation. Wall Adapter Comparator Threshold From Figure 5, select the following resistors based on the wall adapter comparator threshold VWATH: R15 = R7(VWATH – VIH1)/VIH1

where VIH1= 1.226V, suggested value for R7 is 100k. Use 1% resistors. MODE Pin Operation The following truth table describes MODE pin operation. Burst Mode operation is disabled during battery charging to reduce broadband noise inherent in Burst Mode operation. (Refer to the LT1307 data sheet for details).

The MODE pin should be decoupled with 200pF to ground when left open. Snubber Design The values given in the applications schematics have been found to work quite well for most applications. Care should be taken in selecting other values for your application since efficiency may be impacted by a poor choice. For a detailed look at snubber design, Application Note 19 is very helpful. Frequency Compensation Load step testing can be used to empirically determine compensation. Application Note 25 provides information on the technique. To adjust the compensation for the DC/ DC converter, adjust C12 and R13 (in Figure 5). Battery charger current loop compensation is set by C11 and battery charger float voltage compensation is set by C8. Component Selection Basics The application circuits work well for most 1- and 2-cell Li-Ion, 0.5A to 1A output current designs. The next section highlights the component selection process. More information is available in Application Note 19.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Current Sense Resistor Voltage drop in the current sense resistor should be limited to approximately ±100mV with respect to ground at max load currents in all modes. This value strikes a reasonable balance between providing an adequate low current signal, while keeping the losses from this resistor low. For applications where the inputs and output voltages may be low, a somewhat lower drop can be used (in order to reduce conduction losses slightly). The LTC1980 has several features, such as leading-edge blanking, which make application of this part easier to use. However for best charge current accuracy, the current sense resistor should be Kelvin sensed. MOSFETs The LTC1980 uses low side MOSFET switches. There are two very important advantages. First, N-channel MOSFETs are used—this generally means that efficiency will be higher than a comparable on-resistance P-channel device (because less gate charge is required). Second, low VT (‘logic-level’) MOSFETs with relatively low absolute maximum VGS ratings can be used, even in higher voltage applications. Refer to Application Note 19 for information on determining MOSFET voltage and current ratings. Transformer Turns ratio affects the duty factor of the power converter which impacts current and voltage stress on the power MOSFETs, input and output capacitor RMS currents and transformer utilization (size vs power). Using a 50% duty factor under nominal operating conditions usually gives reasonable results. For a 50% duty factor, the turns ratio is: N = VREG/VBAT N should be calculated for the design operating as a DC/DC converter and as a battery charger. The final turns ratio should be chosen so that it is approximately equal to the average of the two calculated values for N. In addition choose a turns ratio which can be made from the ratio of small integers. This allows bifilar windings to be used in

the transformer which can reduce the leakage inductance, reduce the need for aggressive snubber design and for this reason improve efficiency.

Avoid transformer saturation under all operating conditions and combinations (usually the biggest problems occur at high output currents and extreme duty cycles. Also check these conditions for battery charging and regulation modes.
Finally, in low voltage applications, select a transformer with low winding resistance. This will improve efficiency at heavier loads. Capacitors Check the RMS current rating on your capacitors on both sides of your circuit. Low ESR and ESL is recommended for lowest ripple. OS-CON capacitors (from Sanyo) work very well in this application. Diodes In low voltage applications, Schottky diodes should be placed in parallel with the drain and source of the MOSFETs in the PWM supply. This prevents body diode turn on and improves efficiency by eliminating loss from reverse recovery in these diodes. It also reduces conduction loss during the RGTDR/BGTDR break interval. The LTC1980 can operate to voltages as low as 2.8V. Suitable Schottky diodes include the ZHCS1000 (VF = 420mV at IF = 1A) and SL22/23 (VF = 440mV at IF = 2A) for most 500mA to 1A output current applications.
