LTC3552-1 Standalone Linear Li-Ion Battery Charger and Dual Synchronous Buck Converter DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®3552-1 is a complete constant-current/constantvoltage linear charger and dual fixed output DC/DC converter for single cell lithium-ion batteries. Its DFN package and low external component count make the LTC3552-1 ideally suited for portable applications. Furthermore, the LTC3552-1 is designed to work within USB power specifications. No external sense resistor or external blocking diode are required due to the internal MOSFET architecture. The charge voltage is fixed at 4.2V and the charge current is programmed with a resistor. The charge cycle terminates when the charge current drops below the programmed termination threshold after the final float voltage is reached. When the input supply (wall adapter or USB supply) is removed, the LTC3552-1 enters a low current state dropping the battery drain current to less than 2µA. Thermal regulation maximizes charge rate without risk of overheating. The synchronous step-down switching regulators generate fixed output voltages of 1.8V and 1.575V. The switching frequency is set at 2.25MHz, allowing the use of small surface mount inductors and capacitors.

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 LTC3552E-1 is guaranteed to meet performance specifications from 0°C to 85°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 will result in a thermal resistance much higher than 40°C/W. See Thermal Considerations. Note 4: Supply current includes PROG pin current and ITERM pin current (approximately 100µA each) but does not include any current delivered to the battery through the BAT pin (approximately 100mA).
Note 5: The converter is tested in a proprietary test mode that connects the output of the error amplifier to the SW pin, which is connected to an external servo loop. Note 6: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the internal gate charge being delivered at the switching frequency. Note 7: The regulator power switch on-resistances are guaranteed by correlation to wafer level measurements. Note 8: TJ is calculated from the ambient temperature TA and power dissipation PD according to the following formula: TJ = TA + (PD • θJA)

LTC3552-1 PI FU CTIO S
ITERM (Pin 1): Charge Termination Program. The charge termination current threshold is programmed by connecting a 1% resistor, RTERM, to ground. The current threshold ITERM, is set by the following formula: 100 V 100 V ITERM = , R TERM = R TERM ITERM BAT (Pin 2): Charge Current Output. Provides charge current to the battery from the internal P-channel MOSFET, and regulates the final float voltage to 4.2V. An internal precision resistor divider from this pin sets the float voltage. This divider is disconnected in shutdown mode to minimize current drain from the battery. CHRG (Pin 3): Charge Status Open-Drain Output. When the battery is charging, the CHRG pin is pulled low by an internal N-channel MOSFET. When the charge cycle is completed, CHRG becomes high impedance. RUN2 (Pin 4): Regulator 2 Enable. Forcing this pin to VCC enables regulator 2, while forcing it to GND causes regulator 2 to shut down. This pin must be driven; do not float. SW2 (Pin 5): Regulator 2 Switch Node Connection to the Inductor. This pin swings from VCC to GND. RUN1 (Pin 6): Regulator 1 Enable. Forcing this pin to VCC enables regulator 1, while forcing it to GND causes regulator 1 to shut down. This pin must be driven; do not float. VOUT2 (Pin 7): Output Voltage Feedback Pin for Regulator 2. Internal resistors divide the output voltage down for comparison to the internal reference voltage. VFB2 (Pin 8): Output Feedback for Regulator 2. Receives the feedback voltage from internal resistive divider across the output. Normal voltage for this pin is 0.6V. VFB1 (Pin 9): Output Feedback for Regulator 1. Receives the feedback voltage from internal resistive divider across the output. Normal voltage for this pin is 0.6V. VOUT1 (Pin 10): Output Voltage Feedback Pin for Regulator 1. Internal resistors divide the output voltage down for comparison to the internal reference voltage. VCC (Pin 11): Buck Regulators Input Supply. Provides power to the switchers. Must be closely decoupled to GND. SW1 (Pin 12): Regulator 1 Switch Node Connection to the Inductor. This pin swings from VCC to GND. PROG (Pin 13): Charge Current Program and Charge Current Monitor. Charge current is programmed by connecting a 1% resistor, RPROG, to ground. 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 • 1000 RPROG This pin is clamped to approximately 2.4V. Driving this pin to voltages beyond the clamp voltage should be avoided. VIN (Pin 14): Charger Input Supply. Provides power to the charger. VIN can range from 4.25V to 8V. This pin should be bypassed with at least a 1µF capacitor. When VIN is within 100mV of the BAT pin voltage, the charger enters shutdown mode dropping the battery drain current to less than 2µA. PWR (Pin 15): Power Supply Status Open-Drain Output. When VIN is greater than the undervoltage lockout threshold and at least 100mV above VBAT, the PWR pin is pulled to ground; otherwise, the pin is high impedance. EN (Pin 16): Enable Input. A logic high on the EN pin will put the charger into shutdown mode where the battery drain current is reduced to less than 2µA and the supply current is reduced to less than 50µA. A logic low or floating the EN pin (allowing an internal 2MΩ pull-down resistor to pull this pin low) enables charging. Exposed Pad (GND) (Pin 17): Ground. The exposed backside of the package (Pin 17) is ground and must be soldered to the PCB for maximum heat transfer.

LTC3552-1 OPERATIO
The LTC3552-1 is made up of two circuit blocks: a standalone constant-current/constant-voltage linear charger for a single-cell lithium-ion battery and a high efficiency dual DC/DC switching regulator. The charger can deliver up to 950mA of charge current (using a good thermal PCB layout) with a final float voltage accuracy of ±1%. An internal P-channel power MOSFET and thermal regulation circuitry are included. No blocking diode or external current sense resistor is required; furthermore, the charger is capable of operating from a USB power source. The switching regulators use a constant frequency, current mode step-down architecture. Both main (P-channel MOSFET) and synchronous (N-channel MOSFET) switches are internal. The LTC3552-1 requires no external diodes or sense resistors. LITHIUM-ION BATTERY CHARGER Normal Charge Cycle A charge cycle begins when the voltage at the VIN pin rises above the UVLO threshold level and a 1% program resistor is connected from the PROG pin to ground. The charger enters constant-current mode where the programmed charge current is supplied to the battery. When the BAT pin approaches the final float voltage (4.2V), the charger enters constant-voltage mode and the charge current begins to decrease. When the charge current drops to the programmed termination threshold (set by the external resistor RTERM), the charge cycle ends. Figure 1 shows the state diagram of a typical charge cycle. Charge Status Indicator (CHRG) The open drain charge status output has two states: pulldown and high impedance. The pull-down state indicates that the charger is in a charge cycle. Once the charge cycle has terminated or the charger is disabled, the pin becomes high impedance. Automatic Recharge Once the charge cycle terminates, the charger continuously monitors the voltage on the BAT pin using a comparator with a 2ms filter time (tRECHARGE). A charge cycle restarts when the battery voltage falls below 4.10V (which corre-

sponds to approximately 80% to 90% battery capacity). 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 enters a pulldown state during recharge cycles. If the battery is removed from the charger, a sawtooth waveform of approximately 100mV appears at the charger output. This is caused by the repeated cycling between termination and recharge events. This cycling results in pulsing at the CHRG output; an LED connected to this pin will exhibit a pulsing pattern, indicating to the user that a battery is not present. The frequency of the sawtooth is dependent on the amount of output capacitance. Power Supply Status Indicator (PWR) The power supply status output has two states: pull-down and high impedance. The pull-down state indicates that VIN is above the UVLO threshold (3.8V) and is also 100mV above the battery voltage. If these conditions are not met, the PWR pin is high impedance indicating that the charger is unable to charge the battery.
POWER ON EN DRIVEN LOW OR UVLO CONDITION ENDS SHUTDOWN MODE ICC DROPS TO 1µF) input capacitors. The discharged load input capacitors are effectively put in parallel with COUT, causing a rapid drop in VOUT. No regulator can deliver enough current to prevent this problem, if the switch connecting the load has low resistance and is driven quickly. The solution is to limit the turn-on speed of the load switch driver. A Hot Swap™ controller is designed specifically for this purpose and usually incorporates current limiting, short-circuit protection, and soft-start. Efficiency Considerations The efficiency of a switching regulator is equal to the output power divided by the input power times 100%. It is often useful to analyze individual losses to determine what is limiting the efficiency and which change would produce the most improvement. Percent efficiency can be expressed as: % Efficiency = 100% – (L1 + L2 + L3 + ...)

where L1, L2, etc. are the individual losses as a percentage of input power. Although all dissipative elements in the circuit produce losses, four main sources usually account for most of the losses in LTC3552-1 circuits: 1) VCC quiescent current, 2) switching losses, 3) I2R losses, 4) other losses. 1) The VCC current is the DC supply current given in the Electrical Characteristics which excludes MOSFET driver and control currents.
