Set the output voltage by connecting feedback resistors to this pin. PROG (Pin 2): Charge Current Program and Charge Current Monitor Pin. Connect a resistor, RPROG, from this pin to ground to program battery charge current. IBAT = 1000 • 1.23V / RPROG In all modes the voltage on the PROG pin can be used to measure charge current. PROG has a weak pull-up current source to turn the charger off if the pin is left open. TIMER (Pin 3): Timer Capacitor Pin. Connect a capacitor, CTIMER, between this pin and ground to set the charge cycle termination time. The timer starts when USB or wall power is first present. The timer period is: TTIMER (hours) = CTIMER • (3 hours) / (0.1µF) Tie TIMER to ground to disable just the internal timer function. Tie TIMER to VMAX to use the charger in a constant-current-only mode (which disables the timer, voltage amplifier and trickle charge function). CHRG (Pin 4): Open-Drain Charge Status Pin. This pin is pulled low with an internal N-channel MOSFET whenever the battery charger is enabled, and is forced into a high impedance state whenever it is disabled. USBHP (Pin 5): USB High Power Mode Pin. This pin is used to select the appropriate USB current limit (either 500mA or 100mA). Pull high to select 500mA (high power mode); low to select 100mA (low power mode). SUSPEND (Pin 6): USB Suspend Pin. When this pin is pulled high, the internal USB power controller is disabled and the USB pin current reduces to less than 20µA. SW1 (Pin 7): Switch Pin for Switcher 1. Minimize the length of the metal trace connected to this pin. Place the inductor for Switcher 1 as close to this pin as possible. USB (Pin 8): USB Supply Pin. Input current into this pin is limited to either 100mA or 500mA based on the state of the USBHP pin. The charger and Switcher 1 will remain alive whenever USB power is present (when USB pin is above 3.9V and SUSPEND is low). VBAT (Pin 9): Battery Input Pin. Bypass this pin with a capacitor as close to the device as possible. VMAX (Pin 10): Max Voltage Pin. This pin is used to power the two internal step-down DC/DC converters and is provided externally to power other devices (i.e. LDOs or Switchers for LCD bias, white LED backlight drive, etc). When the LTC3455 is on and neither USB or wall power are available, an internal PMOS switch connects this pin to the VBAT pin. When either USB or wall power is present, they provide power to this pin, and the battery charger draws power from this pin. In shutdown, this pin is discharged to ground to provide output disconnect. WALLFB (Pin 11): Wall Power Detection Pin. This pin is the input to a comparator used to signal the presence of a 5V wall adapter. A resistor divider taken from the wall adapter input is connected to this pin to tell the LTC3455 when the adapter voltage is high enough to provide power to the LTC3455. When this pin is higher than 1.23V, the battery charger is enabled. The 5V wall adapter is connected to the VMAX pin through a Schottky diode. Tie WALLFB to ground if a wall adapter is not used. SW2 (Pin 12): Switch Pin for Switcher 2. Minimize the length of the metal trace connected to this pin. Place the inductor for Switcher 2 as close to this pin as possible. HSI (Pin 13): Hot Swap Input Pin. This pin is connected to the HSO pin through a current-limited PMOS switch. HSO (Pin 14): Hot Swap Output Pin. This output is used for memory cards or other devices that would appear as a short if they were hot-plugged directly to one of the outputs (typically the 3.3V output). The current out of this pin is limited to 160mA. HSON (Pin 15): Hot Swap Enable Pin. This pin turns on the PMOS that connects the HSI and HSO pins. AI (Pin 16): Gain Block Input Pin. This pin is the inverting input to an amplifier that can be used as a low-battery detector or as an LDO with the addition of an external PNP or PMOS. The non-inverting input of the gain block is connected to the 0.8V internal reference. AO (Pin 17): Gain Block Output Pin. This pin is an opendrain output, and is pulled low when the AI pin is less than 800mV. This output can be used as a low-battery detector, or as an LDO with the addition of an external PNP or PMOS. This pin can sink up to 1mA. 3455f U U U 7 LTC3455 PI FU CTIO S FB2 (Pin 18): Feedback Pin for Switcher 2. Set the output voltage by connecting feedback resistors to this pin. ON2 (Pin 19): Enable Pin for Switcher 2. This pin turns on Switcher 2 only if ON is low or PWRON is high. Switcher 2 cannot be turned on by itself. RST (Pin 20): Reset Pin. This pin is an open-drain output that provides a 200ms reset signal during power-up to initialize a microcontroller. MODE (Pin 21): Burst Mode Enable Pin. Tie this pin high to allow Burst Mode operation for the LTC3455. Burst Mode operation will provide superior efficiency when both outputs are operating with very low output currents. Tie this pin to ground to force PWM operation under all load current conditions. Burst Mode is disabled initially at startup (for 200ms) and also whenever external power is available (even if MODE is pulled high). PWRON (Pin 22): Power-On Pin. Pull this pin high to turn on the LTC3455. This pin is typically used in conjunction with the ON and PTSTAT pins, and a momentary-on switch. Tie PWRON to ground if not used. PBSTAT (Pin 23): Push-Button Status Pin. This pin is an open drain output that indicates the state of the ON pin (which is usually connected to a momentary-on pushbutton) to the microcontroller. This pin follows the state of the ON pin (PBSTAT goes low when ON is pulled low). ON (Pin 24): ON Pin. Pull this pin to ground to turn on the LTC3455. This pin is typically used with a momentary-on push-button switch to turn on the LTC3455. This pin would be held low until the PWRON pin is pulled high by a microcontroller to keep the LTC3455 turned on. If a momentary-on switch is not used, this pin can be held to ground to keep on the LTC3455. Leave ON open if not used. This pin has a weak pull-up current source. GND (Pin 25 – Exposed Pad): Ground Pin. The exposed backside pad is the only ground pin for the LTC3455 and must be soldered to the PC board ground plane for the device to operate properly.

The device incorporates two current mode step-down switching regulators, a full-featured battery charger, a USB power controller, a Hot Swap output, a low-battery comparator (which can also be configured as an LDO) and numerous protection features into a single package. When only battery power is available, the battery PMOS switch connects the VMAX pin to the VBAT pin to provide power to both switching regulators (and any other devices powered from VMAX). When external power is applied, the LTC3455 APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) If no external power is present, the LTC3455 will start only if the battery voltage is above 3.0V. This prevents starting up with a battery that is too close to deep discharge. Once started, the battery must drop below 2.6V before the LTC3455 will shut off. This hysteresis is set intentionally large to prevent the LTC3455 from turning off at an inappropriate time, like during the read- or write-cycle of a hard-disk drive (which could potentially damage the drive). The internal UVLO is meant only as a last chance safety measure to prevent running the battery voltage too low and damaging it. An accurate, user-settable lowbattery threshold can be implemented using the gain block (see the “Gain Block” section for details) which gives the microcontroller complete control over the timing of a shutdown due to a low-battery condition. If external power is present and the battery voltage is less than 3.0V, the VMAX pin voltage must be greater than 3.9V for the LTC3455 to start, and once started, the VMAX pin must stay above 3.1V for the device to continue running. Selecting the Input Power Source The priority for supplying power to both DC/DC converters, all internal circuitry, and the VMAX pin is: Wall adapter, USB, battery. 10 U W U U U seamlessly transitions from battery power (a single-cell Li-Ion cell) to either the USB supply or a wall adapter. The battery PMOS switch is turned off, the charger is activated and all internal power for the device is drawn from the appropriate external power source. Maximum charge current and charge time are programmed using an external resistor and capacitor, respectively. The USB power manager provides accurate current limiting for the USB pin under all conditions. The Hot Swap output is ideal for powering memory cards and other devices that can be inserted while the system is fully powered. Whenever the WALLFB pin is above 1.23V, system power is drawn from the wall adapter via the VMAX pin, and the battery charger is active. The 5V wall adapter output is connected to the VMAX pin through a Schottky diode, and a resistor divider from the 5V wall input is connected to the WALLFB pin to signal the LTC3455 that wall power is present. A higher voltage adapter can also be used, but the 6V maximum rating on the VMAX pin requires the use of an additional regulator to step down the voltage. If USB power is present and above 3.9V (and wall power is not available), system power is drawn from the USB pin. The battery charger is active, but charge current will be held off until the USB pin increases above 4.0V to prevent the battery charger from further loading down an already low USB supply. As long as the USB pin stays above 3.9V, the USB port supplies all other system power. If the system needs more power than the USB bus can supply, the charger turns off completely, the USB power controller becomes a 500mA (or 100mA) current source and the VMAX voltage begins to decrease. If VMAX continues to decrease, eventually the battery will provide the additional current needed. This allows the LTC3455 to withstand load current transients that briefly require more power than the USB power supply can provide. 3455f LTC3455 APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Operation When No Battery Is Present As long as USB or wall power is available, the LTC3455 will operate with no battery present, a crucial requirement for systems with a removable battery. Keep in mind, however, that if the LTC3455 is USB powered and the battery is not present, absence of the battery means that there is no reservoir if the system needs more power than the USB port can supply. Similarly, if external power is available, the LTC3455 will operate even if the battery is bad or in deep-discharge. The LTC3455 is also a good choice for systems that are always powered by a USB supply or wall adapter. The charger can then be used to charge a large capacitor or backup battery, which can briefly provide power to the system after the external power has been removed. This gives the microcontroller enough time to follow proper shutdown procedures even after the main power source is abruptly removed. If USB powered, the large capacitor or backup battery will also be used to provide additional current if the system briefly needs more power than the USB bus can provide. Concerns When Wall Adapter Powered Always choose a wall adapter that can provide power for all load and battery charging requirements. Choosing a wall adapter with a power rating that is too small will result in very long charge times and erratic system operation. If the total current needed (load and battery charging) exceeds what the adapter can provide, the voltage on the VMAX pin will begin to droop. If it droops close enough to the battery voltage (the VBAT pin), the charge current decreases and eventually reduces to zero. If the load current is still too much for the wall adapter to provide, the wall adapter will provide what it can and the battery will provide the rest. When wall powered, this operation is intended only for surviving fault conditions and should not be a normal mode of operation. Concerns When USB Powered The popularity of USB (Universal Serial Bus) makes it an attractive choice for transferring data in a variety of portable devices. Therefore, utilizing the USB port to power these portable devices while charging their battery is very U desirable, but it is not necessarily an easy task. As the performance of digital cameras, handheld computers, and MP3 players increases, the power needed to operate them also increases. The power available from a single USB port (maximum 2.5W) is barely enough to support the peak power needed by many full-featured portable devices, even without the power needed to quickly charge their batteries. To further complicate matters, a USB port is not the ideal power source. Each device can draw a maximum of 500mA (in high power mode), but the voltage provided to the portable device can vary quite significantly. Although a USB power supply has a 5V nominal rating, when you include normal supply variations, cable losses, and transient conditions, the USB voltage showing up at the portable device is typically much lower—often falling to only 4V. Since the USB port has a strict current limit of 500mA, this means the amount of power available to the portable device can be as low as 2W. The reduced USB voltage also presents problems when trying to fully charge a single-cell Lithium-Ion battery (that has a 4.2V final charge voltage) when the USB voltage may itself be below or near 4.2V. The LTC3455 is specifically designed to alleviate these problems and make the most of the power the USB port has to offer. See the sections entitled ”Large Transient Loads when USB powered” and ”Special Charger Features when USB powered” for more detailed discussions of the LTC3455’s special USB features. USB High Power/Low Power/Suspend Modes There are three basic modes for the USB power manager: high power, low power, and suspend. High power mode allows the LTC3455 to draw up to 500mA from the USB port, and is selected by pulling the USBHP pin high. Low power mode reduces the allowable current drawn to 100mA, and is selected by pulling the USBHP pin low. The USBHP pin has a weak internal pulldown current source to ensure that the LTC3455 always starts up in USB low power mode. The SUSPEND pin will disable the USB power manager completely, reducing the USB pin current to under 20µA. 3455f W U U 11 LTC3455 APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Operation in USB Low Power Mode Most applications that draw power from the USB bus should be in low power mode only for a brief amount of time. All devices must be in low power mode (draw no more than 100mA of current from the USB bus) upon power-up, and can transition to high power mode (draw up to 500mA from the USB bus) only after the device has been given permission to do so by the USB host controller. The change to high power mode is usually very quick, so the full 500mA of current is available shortly after connecting to the USB bus. While the LTC3455 will operate when in low power mode, the amount of power available is so small that it is difficult or impossible to charge a battery or even provide enough current to power the rest of the system. For this reason, USB high power operation should always be used with the LTC3455. Handling Large Transient Loads when USB Powered Many portable devices have nominal loads that can easily be supported by the USB supply, but they have brief transient loads that can exceed the maximum available USB power. The LTC3455 is designed to handle these overloads while drawing as much power as possible from the USB port. If the USB bus is providing power but the LTC3455 (or any other devices connected to the VMAX pin) needs more total power than the USB bus can supply, the battery charger turns off completely and the USB power controller becomes a 500mA (or 100mA) current source and the VMAX voltage begins to decrease. At this point, the capacitance connected to the VMAX pin provides the additional current needed by the system. As long as the USB pin stays above 3.9V, the USB bus will continue to provide as much current as possible. Once the VMAX pin drops just below the VBAT voltage, the battery will provide the additional current needed. This operation allows the LTC3455 to withstand load transients that briefly demand more power than can be provided by the USB bus. 12 U The oscilloscope photographs in Figure 1 show how the LTC3455 handles load transients when USB powered. The top photo shows a brief transient load that turns off the charger but does not dip the VMAX voltage. The bottom photo shows a prolonged transient condition that turns off the charger and completely dips the VMAX voltage to the point where the battery must provide current. For both cases, normal operation resumes as soon as the transient passes. Extra capacitance can be connected to the VMAX pin to act as a reservoir to help support large transient currents. For most systems this is not necessary, as the LTC3455 cleanly handles heavy transients. For some designs, however, it may be desirable to use a larger capacitor connected to VMAX to act as a larger reservoir.

Handling Load Transients when USB Powered 3455f LTC3455 APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO ceramic capacitance may be connected to the VMAX pin without difficulty. More than 50µF requires using a capacitor with some ESR or adding some resistance in series with some of the ceramic capacitance. This is necessary to ensure loop stability in the battery charger loop when under USB power. Using the VMAX Pin to Power Other Devices The VMAX pin can be used to provide power for other devices within the system. This pin is connected to the battery when no external power is available, and it is connected to either the USB bus or the wall adapter when either are available. This ensures that all devices powered from VMAX will always draw power from the best available input power source. The internal PMOS connecting VMAX to the battery is current limited to 900mA at startup (to minimize in-rush current) and to 4A once VMAX has risen close to the battery voltage. Because of the reduced startup current limit, the turn-on of other devices powered from VMAX should always be delayed to minimize the currrent initially needed from the VMAX pin. The best choice is to enable these devices from either switcher output, since the turn-on of both switchers is always delayed until the VMAX pin has reached the VBAT pin voltage. The VMAX pin is discharged to ground when the LTC3455 is shut down, so that any device supplied by VMAX will have its input grounded during shutdown. This ensures output disconnect for all supply voltages within the system. PBSTAT ON µC PUSH BUTTON PWRON ON2 Figure 2. Momentary Push-Button Operation 3455f U Startup and Shutdown when Battery-Powered When only battery power is available, the LTC3455 turns on when either the ON pin is pulled low or the PWRON pin is pulled high. Either of these pins will keep the device running, but typically the ON and PWRON pins are used together to provide turn-on and turn-off using a single momentary-on push-button switch. Figure 2 shows the method for using a momentary-on pushbutton to turn the LTC3455 off and on. When the momentary-on switch is first pressed, shorting the ON pin to ground, PBSTAT goes low and the LTC3455 first brings up the VMAX pin, then enables Switcher 1 to power the microcontroller. Once up and running, the microcontroller provides the PWRON signal to keep the LTC3455 turned on after the push-button is released. When the push-button is pressed again to turn off the device, the PBSTAT pin is pulled low to notify the microcontroller that the push-button has been pressed. The microcontroller prepares for shutdown then pulls the PWRON signal low. When the push-button is released, the ON pin goes high and the LTC3455 turns off. The ON and PWRON pins enable Switcher 1 (along with all the internal circuits needed for normal operation), and the ON2 pin enables Switcher 2. Switcher 2 can only operate when Switcher 1 is also enabled. The turn-on of both switchers is always delayed until the VMAX pin has reached the VBAT pin voltage.

Turn-On Logic Diagram for LTC3455 Startup and Shutdown When USB or Wall Powered Whenever USB or wall power is present (as sensed by the USB and WALLFB pins), Switcher 1 and the battery charger will always be enabled. If the LTC3455 is off and external power is applied, both the charger and Switcher 1 will start independent of the state of the ON and PWRON pins. This provides maximum battery run-time by always allowing the battery to charge whenever external power is available, and ensures that the microcontroller is always alive when external power is available (this is important for designs that utilize coulomb-counting or other battery monitoring techniques). Switcher 2 starts only if ON2 is also pulled high. Figure 3 shows the turn-on logic diagram for the LTC3455. Starting Switcher 2/Power Supply Sequencing Switcher 2 can operate only when Switcher 1 is also enabled and in regulation. The ON2 pin can be driven by a logic signal for independent control of Switcher 2. If both outputs always operate together, tie the ON2 pin to the VMAX pin. This will enable Switcher 2 after the output of Switcher 1 has reached 90% of its final value. This powerup delay ensures proper supply sequencing and reduces the peak battery current at startup. Figure 4 shows the 14 U LTC3455 SWITCHER 2 ENABLED USB POWER CONTROLLER ENABLED W U U output sequencing when both switchers are enabled at startup with the ON2 pin tied to VMAX. The turn-on of both switchers is always delayed until the VMAX pin has reached the VBAT pin voltage. Reset Signal (RST) A 200ms reset signal (the RST pin is pulled low) is provided for proper initialization of a microcontroller whenever the LTC3455 is first turned on, either by the ON or PWRON pins, or by the application of external power. The RST signal is also pulled low whenever the LTC3455 is in shutdown, ensuring no false starts for the microcontroller as the output voltages are rising or collapsing. In the event of a fault condition the RST pin will be pulled low. PWRON/ON2 2V/DIV VMAX 2V/DIV VOUT1 (1.8V) 2V/DIV VOUT2 (3.3V) 2V/DIV 100µs/DIV 3455 F04 Figure 4. Sequencing for Switcher 1 and 2 Outputs 3455f LTC3455 APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Low or Bad Battery Protection (200ms Timeout) The 200ms reset timer is also used to prevent starting the LTC3455 when there is insufficient external power or insufficient battery voltage to regulate the outputs. When first turned on, the internal 200ms timer starts. If only Switcher 1 is enabled (ON2 is low) and its output does not reach 90% of its final value within 200ms, Switcher 1 is shut down even if the ON pin is held low or if the PWRON pin is held high (the VMAX pin will remain on as long as ON is low or PWRON is high). This automatic shutdown feature prevents possible damage to a defective or overdischarged Li-Ion battery. If ON2 is tied to VMAX so that Switcher 2 is also turned on at startup, then both outputs must reach 90% of their final values within 200ms. Once the output(s) are in regulation, the timer is reset for a full 200ms. Schottky Diode Selection/WALLFB Resistor Selection When a 5V wall adapter is used, power is provided to the VMAX pin through a Schottky diode. The most important specification in picking this diode is its reverse leakage current. When the LTC3455 is turned on but wall power is not present, the Schottky will leak current to ground through the WALLFB resistor divider (see Figure 5). This leakage current should be minimized (by picking an appropriate low-leakage Schottky diode) as it can dramatically reduce Burst Mode efficiency at light loads. In addition, a high leakage current can also false trip the WALLFB pin and turn on the LTC3455 even if wall power is not available. To help prevent this false turn-on, use the WALLFB resistor values shown in Figure 5. The diode forward voltage drop should be around 500mV or less at its maximum rated current to allow charging even when the wall adapter voltage is lower than normal. Some manufacturers have recently introduced Schottky diodes optimized for a very low forward drop, but their reverse leakage currents can be more than 100µA at room temperature, and over 1mA at high temperatures. These diodes are not recommended for use with the LTC3455, but if they are used operation at high temperature should be checked thoroughly to avoid problems due to excessive diode leakage current. U Three good diode choices are the MBRM110E (1A, 10V), MBR120ESF (1A, 20V), and the MBRA210E (2A, 10V). All are available in very small packages from ON Semiconductor (www.onsemi.com), have reverse leakage currents under 1µA at room temperature, and have forward drops of around 500mV at their maximum rated current (1A or 2A).

Schottky Leakage Current Path Switching Regulator General Information The LTC3455 contains two 1.5MHz constant-frequency current mode switching regulators that operate with efficiencies up to 96%. Switcher 1 provides up to 400mA at 1.5V/1.8V (to power a microcontroller core), and Switcher 2 provides up to 600mA at 3V/3.3V (to power microcontroller I/O, memory and other logic circuitry). Both converters support 100% duty cycle operation (low dropout mode) when the input voltage drops very close to the output voltage, and both are capable of operating in Burst Mode operation for highest efficiencies at light loads (Burst Mode operation is pin selectable). Switcher 2 has independent ON/OFF control, but operates only when Switcher 1 is also enabled and in regulation. If both are enabled at power-up, Switcher 2 is allowed to turn on only after Switcher 1 has reached 90% of its final value. This power-up delay ensures proper supply sequencing and reduces the peak battery current at startup. If the output of Switcher 1 drops to below 85% of its programmed output voltage, Switcher 2 will turn off. This ensures that any problems with the core supply will shut down the rest of the sytem. 3455f 15 LTC3455 APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Switching Regulator Inductor Selection Many different sizes and shapes of inductors are available from numerous manufacturers. Choosing the right inductor from such a large selection of devices can be overwhelming, but following a few basic guidelines will make the selection process much simpler. To maximize efficiency, choose an inductor with a low DC resistance. Keep in mind that most inductors that are very thin or have a very small volume typically have much higher core and DCR losses, and will not give the best efficiency. Choose an inductor with a DC current rating at least 1.5 times larger than the maximum load current to ensure that the inductor does not saturate during normal operation. Table 1 shows several inductors that work well with the LTC3455. These inductors offer a good compromise in current rating, DCR and physical size.

Consult each manufacturer for detailed information on their entire selection of ceramic capacitors. Many manufacturers now offer very thin (
