Monolithic 4A High Voltage  
1 Cell Li-Ion Battery Charger  
FEATURES  
DESCRIPTION  
The LT®3651 is a 1 cell 4A Li-Ion/Polymer battery charger  
that operates over a 4.8V to 32V input voltage range. An  
efficient monolithic average current mode synchronous  
switching regulator provides constant current, constant  
voltage charging with programmable maximum charge  
current. A charging cycle starts with battery insertion  
or when the battery voltage drops 2.5% below the float  
voltage. Charger termination is selectable as either charge  
current or internal safety timer timeout. Charge current  
termination occurs when the charge current falls to one-  
tenth the programmed maximum current (C/10). Timer  
based termination is typically set to three hours and is  
user programmable (charging continues below C/10 until  
timeout). Once charging is terminated, the LT3651 supply  
current drops to 85μA into a standby mode.

Low Profile (0.75mm) 5mm × 6mm 36-Pin  
The LT3651 offers several safety features. A discharged  
battery is preconditioned with a small trickle charge and  
generates a signal if unresponsive. A thermistor monitors  
battery temperature, halting charging if out of range. Ex-  
cessive die temperature reduces charge current. Charge  
current is also reduced to maintain constant input current  
to prevent excessive input loading.

PIN FUNCTIONS  
NTC (Pin 1): Battery Temperature Monitor Pin. This  
pin is used to monitor battery temperature. Typically a  
10kꢀ NTC(negativetemperaturecoefficient)thermistor  
(B = 3380) is embedded with the battery and connected  
from the NTC pin to ground. The pin sources 50μA into  
the resistor and monitors the voltage across the therm-  
istor, regulating charging based on the voltage. If this  
function is not desired, leave the NTC pin unconnected.  
GND (Pins 6, 23, 31, 37): Ground. These pins are the  
groundpinsforthepart.Pins31and37mustbeconnected  
together. Pins 6 and 23 are connected via the leadframe to  
theexposedbacksidePin37. Soldertheexposedbackside  
to the PCB for good thermal and electrical connection.  
SW (Pins 7, 11-18, 22, 38): Switch Output Pin. These  
pins are the output of the charger switches. An inductor  
is connected between this pin and the SENSE pin. When  
the switcher is active, the inductor is charged by the high  
ACPR (Pin 2): Open-Collector AC Present Status Pin.  
This pin sinks current to indicate that V is valid and the  
side switch from V and discharged by the bottom side

switch to GND. Solder the exposed backside, Pin 38, to

when disabled, and can sink currents up to 10mA when  
TIMER (Pin 24): End-Of-Cycle Timer Programming Pin.  
A capacitor on this pin to ground determines the full  
charge end-of-cycle time. Full charge end-of-cycle time is  
programmed with this capacitor. A 3 hour charge cycle is  
obtained with a 0.68μF capacitor. This timer also controls  
thebadbatteryfaultthatisgeneratedifthebatterydoesnot  
reachthepreconditionthresholdvoltagewithinone-eighth  
of a full cycle (22.5 minutes for a 3 hour charge cycle).  
enabled.  
BAT (Pin 3): Battery Voltage Monitor Pin. This pin moni-  
tors battery voltage. A Kelvin connection is made to the  
battery from this pin and a decoupling capacitor (C  
is placed from this pin to ground.  
)
BAT  
The charge function operates to achieve the final float  
voltage at this pin. The auto-restart feature initiates a new  
charging cycle when the voltage at the BAT pin falls 2.5%  
below this float voltage. Once the charge cycle is termi-  
nated, the input bias current of the BAT pin is reduced to  
<0.1μA to minimize battery discharge while the charger  
remains connected.  
The timer based termination is disabled by connecting the  
TIMER pin to ground. With the timer function disabled,

FAULT (Pin 25): Open-Collector Fault Status Output. This  
pinindicateschargecyclefaultconditionsduringabattery

wide input voltage (4.8V to 32V) and high currents (up to  
4A). High charging efficiency is produced with a constant  
frequency,averagecurrentmodesynchronousstep-down  
switcher architecture.  
After charging is completed the input bias currents on the  
pins connecting to the battery are reduced to minimize  
battery discharge.  
The LT3651 contains provisions for a battery temperature  
monitoring circuit. Battery temperature is monitored by  
using a NTC thermistor located with the battery. If the  
battery temperature moves outside a safe charging range  
of 0°C to 40°C the charging cycle suspends and signals  
a fault condition.  
The charger includes the necessary circuitry to allow for  
programming and control of constant current, constant  
voltage (CC/CV) charging with both current only and timer  
termination. High charging efficiency is achieved by the  
switcher by using a bootstrapped supply for low switch  
drop for the high side driver and a MOSFET for the low  
side (synchronous) switch.  
The LT3651 contains two digital open-collector outputs,  
which provide charger status and signal fault conditions.  
These binary coded pins signal battery charging, standby  
or shutdown modes, battery temperature faults and bad  
battery faults.  
Maximum charge current is set with an external sense re-  
sistor in series with the inductor and is adjustable through  
the RNG/SS pin. Total system input current is monitored  
with an input sense resistor and is used to maintain con-  
stant input current by regulating battery charge current.  
A precision undervoltage lockout is possible by using a  
resistor divider on the shutdown pin (SHDN). The input  
supply current is 17μA when the IC is in shutdown.  
It is adjustable through the I pin.  
LIM  
Ifthebatteryvoltageislow,chargecurrentisautomatically  
reduced to 15% of the programmed current to provide  
safe battery preconditioning. Once the battery voltage  
climbs above the battery precondition threshold, the IC  
automatically increases the maximum charge current to  
the full programmed value.  
General Operation (See Block Diagram)  
The LT3651 uses an average current mode control loop  
architecturetocontrolaveragechargecurrent.TheLT3651  
senses charger output voltage via the BAT pin. The dif-  
ference between this voltage and the internal float volt-  
age reference is integrated by the voltage error amplifier  
Charge termination can occur when charge current de-  
creases to one-tenth the programmed maximum charge  
current (C/10 termination). Alternately, termination can  
be time based through the use of an internal program-  
mable charge cycle control timer. When using the timer  
termination, charging continues beyond the C/10 level to  
“top-off” a battery. Charging typically terminates three  
hours after initiation. When the timer-based scheme is  
used, bad battery detection is also supported. A system  
fault is triggered if a battery stays in precondition mode  
for more than one-eighth of the total charge cycle time.  
(V-EA). The amplifier output voltage (I ) corresponds  
TH  
to the desired average voltage across the inductor sense  
resistor, R  
, connected between the SENSE and BAT  
SENSE  
pins. The I voltage is divided down by a factor of 10,  
TH  
and provides a voltage offset on the input of the current  
error amplifier (C-EA). The difference between this im-  
posed voltage and the current sense resistor voltage is  
integrated by C-EA. The resulting voltage (V ) provides a  
C
voltage that is compared against an internally generated  
ramp and generates the switch duty cycle that controls  
the charger’s switches.  
Once charging is terminated and the LT3651 is not actively  
charging,theICautomaticallyentersalowcurrentstandby  
mode in which supply bias currents are reduced to <85μA.  
If the battery voltage drops 2.5% from the full charge float  
voltage, the LT3651 engages an automatic charge cycle  
restart. The IC also automatically restarts a new charge  
The I error voltage corresponds linearly to average  
TH  
current sensed across the inductor current sense resistor.  
Maximum charge current is controlled by clamping the  
maximum voltage of I to 1V. This limits the maximum

Once the charge cycle is terminated, the CHRG status

The system current limit allows charge current to be  
reduced in order to maintain a constant input current.

The LT3651 contains a PowerPathTM control feature to  
help manage supply load currents. The charger adjusts  
charger output current in response to a system load so as  
to maintain a constant input supply load. If overall input  
supply current exceeds the programmed maximum value  
the charge current is diminished in an attempt to keep  
supply current constant. One application where this is

the maximum input current limit below the supply limit  
prevents supply collapse.  
default maximum sense voltage is 95mV and is obtained  
if R  
is greater than 20k or if the pin is left open.

For example, say you want a maximum input current of  
2A and the charger is designed for 4A maximum average  
charge current, which is 1A V referred (4A time duty  
IN  
cycle). Using the full I  
range, the maximum voltage  
across R is 95mV. So R is set at 95mV/2A = 48mΩ.  
LIM  
CL  
CL  
When the system load exceeds 1A (= 2A – 1A) charge  
current is reduced such that the total input current stays  
at 2A. When the system load is 2A the charge current is 0.  
This feature only controls charge current so if the system  
load exceeds the maximum limit and no other limitation  
is designed, the input current exceeds the maximum  
desired, though the charge current reduces to 0A. When  
the input limiter reduces charge current it does not impact  
the internal system timer if used. See Figure 4.  
A resistor, R , is placed between the input supply and the  
CL  
system and charger loads as shown in Figure 3.  
The LT3651 sources 50μA from the I pin, so a voltage

The RNG/SS pin gives the user the capability to adjust  
maximum charge current dynamically. The part sources

Per the above equation, 0.5V on RNG/SS requires a 10k  
resistor. If the charge current needs to be dynamically  
adjustable then Figure 5 shows one method.

circuits that source current cannot be used to drive the

Status Pins  
Timer Termination  
The LT3651 reports charger status through two open-  
collector outputs, the CHRG and FAULT pins. These pins  
can accept voltages as high as VIN, and can sink up to

The CHRG status pin continues to signal charging at a  
C/10 rate, regardless of which termination scheme is  
used. When timer termination is used, the CHRG status  
pin is pulled low during a charge cycle until the charger  
output current falls below the C/10 threshold. The charger  
continues to “top off” the battery until timer end-of-cycle,  
when the LT3651 terminates the charge cycle and enters  
standby mode.

C/10 Termination  
Termination at the end of the timer cycle only occurs if the  
charge cycle was successful. A successful charge cycle  
occurs when the battery is charged to within 2.5% of the  
full-charge float voltage. If a charge cycle is not success-  
ful at end-of-cycle, the timer cycle resets and charging  
continues for another full-timer cycle.  
The LT3651 supports a low current based termination  
scheme, where a battery charge cycle terminates when  
the current output from the charger falls to below one-  
tenth the maximum current, as programmed with R

voltage, whether by battery loading or replacement of the  
battery, the charger automatically re-engages and starts

When C/10 termination is used, a LT3651 charger will  
source battery charge current as long as the average  
current level remains above the C/10 threshold. As the  
full-charge float voltage is achieved, the charge current  
falls until the C/10 threshold is reached, at which time the  
charger terminates and the LT3651 enters standby mode.  
The CHRG status pin follows the charge cycle and is high  
impedance when the charger is not actively charging.  
Precondition and Bad Battery Fault

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
timer count is suspended and held until the fault condition  
is relieved. The RNG/SS pin is also pulled low during this  
fault, to accommodate a graceful restart in the event that  
a soft-start function is being incorporated (see the RNG/  
SS: Soft-Start section).  
When the internal timer is used for termination, bad bat-  
tery detection is engaged. This fault detection feature  
is designed to identify failed cells. A bad battery fault is  
triggered when the voltage on BAT remains below the  
preconditionthresholdforgreaterthanone-eighthofafull  
timer cycle (one-eighth end-of-cycle). A bad battery fault  
is also triggered if a normally charging battery re-enters  
precondition mode after one-eighth end-of-cycle.  
If higher operational charging temperatures are desired,  
the temperature range can be expanded by adding series  
resistance to the 10k NTC resistor. Adding a 0.91k (0TC)  
resistor will increase the effective temperature threshold  
to 45°C.  
When a bad battery fault is triggered, the charge cycle  
is suspended, so the CHRG status pin becomes high  
impedance. The FAULT pin is pulled low to signal a fault  
detection. The RNG/SS pin is also pulled low during this  
fault, to accommodate a graceful restart, in the event that  
a soft-start function is incorporated (see the RNG/SS:  
Soft-Start section).  
Thermal Foldback  
The LT3651 contains a thermal foldback protection fea-  
ture that reduces maximum charger output current if the  
internal IC junction temperature approaches 125°C. In  
most cases, on-chip temperature servos such that any  
overtemperature conditions are relieved with only slight  
reductions in maximum charge current.  
Cycling the charger’s power or SHDN function initiates a  
new charge cycle, but a LT3651 charger does not require  
a reset. Once a bad battery fault is detected, a new timer  
charge cycle initiates when the BAT pin exceeds the pre-  
condition threshold voltage. During a bad battery fault,  
1mA is sourced from the charger. Removing the failed  
batteryallowsthechargeroutputvoltagetoriseandinitiate  
a charge cycle reset. In that way removing a bad battery  
resets the LT3651. A new charge cycle is started by con-  
necting another battery to the charger output.  
In some cases, the thermal foldback protection feature  
can reduce charge currents below the C/10 threshold. In  
applications that use C/10 termination (TIMER = 0V), the  
LT3651 will suspend charging and enter standby mode  
until the overtemperature condition is relieved.  
Layout Considerations  
The LT3651 switch node has rise and fall times that are  
typicallylessthan10nstomaximizeconversionefficiency.  
These fast switch times require care in the board layout  
to minimize noise problems. The philosophy is to keep  
the physical area of high current loops small (the inductor  
charge/discharge paths) to minimize magnetic radiation.  
Keeptraceswideandshorttominimizeparasiticinductance  
and resistance and shield fast switching voltage nodes  
(SW, BOOST) to reduce capacitive coupling.  
Battery Temperature Fault: NTC  
The LT3651 can accommodate battery temperature moni-  
toring by using an NTC (negative temperature coefficient)  
thermistor close to the battery pack. The temperature  
monitoring function is enabled by connecting a 10kΩ,  
B = 3380 NTC thermistor from the NTC pin to ground. If  
theNTCfunctionisnotdesired,leavethepinunconnected.  
The NTC pin sources 50μA and monitors the voltage  
dropped across the 10kΩ thermistor. When the voltage  
on this pin is above 1.36V (0°C) or below 0.29V (40°C),  
the battery temperature is out of range, and the LT3651  
triggersanNTCfault.TheNTCfaultconditionremainsuntil  
the voltage on the NTC pin corresponds to a temperature  
withinthe0°Cto4Crange. Bothhotandcoldthresholds  
incorporate hysteresis that corresponds to 2.5°C.

short as possible to minimize high frequency noise. The

with ground is recommended. Make Kelvin connections  
to the battery and sense resistor.  
Transition losses are adjustable by changing switcher  
frequency. Higher input voltages cause an increase in  
transition losses, decreasing overall efficiency. However  
transition losses are inversely proportional to switcher  
oscillator frequency so lowering operating frequency  
reduces these losses. But lower operating frequency  
usually requires higher inductance to maintain inductor  
ripple current (inversely proportional). Inductors with  
larger values typically have more turns, increasing ESR  
unlessyouincreasewirediametermakingthemphysically  
larger. So there is an efficiency and board size trade-off.  
Secondarily, inductor AC losses increase with frequency  
and lower ripple reduces AC capacitor losses.  
Keep high current paths and transients isolated from  
battery ground, to assure an accurate output voltage  
reference. Effective grounding is achieved by considering  
switched current in the ground plane, and careful compo-  
nent placement and orientation can effectively steer these  
high currents such that the battery reference does not get  
corrupted. Figure8illustratesthehighcurrent, highspeed

loop), current flows from the input bypass capacitor (C )

A 1% increase in efficiency represents a 0.2W reduction  
in power loss at 85% overall efficiency. One way to do  
this is to decrease resistance in the high current path. A  
reduction of 0.2W at 4A requires a 12.5mΩ reduction in  
resistance. This can be done by reducing inductor ESR.  
It is also possible to lower the sense resistance (with a

The LT3651 packaging has been designed to efficiently  
remove heat from the IC via the Exposed Pad on the  
backside of the package, which is soldered to a copper  
footprint on the PCB. This footprint should be made as

Consideration should be given for power dissipation and  
overall efficiency in a LT3651 charger. A detailed analysis

Of course all of these must be experimentally confirmed
