Monolithic 4A High Voltage
Li-Ion Battery Charger
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LT®3651 is a 4A Li-Ion/Polymer battery charger that
operates over a 4.8V to 32V input voltage range. An ef-
ficient 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.

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
10kΩ 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. This
pin is 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

when disabled, and can sink currents up to 10mA when
enabled.
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).
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,

BOOST (Pin 5): Bootstrapped Supply Rail for Switch
Drive. This pin facilitates saturation of the high side switch
transistor. Connect a 1µF or greater capacitor from the

is 0V to 4.5V, referenced to the SW pin when the switch is
high. The voltage on the decoupling capacitor is refreshed
through a rectifying diode, with the anode connected to
either the battery output voltage or an external source,
and the cathode connected to the BOOST pin.

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.

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 can continue 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.

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

ramp and generates the switch duty cycle that controls
the charger’s switches.

the input limiter reduces charge current it does not impact

When C/10 termination is used, a LT3651 charger will

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-

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
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 )

terminal.Whenthetopswitchisdisabled(dischargeloop),
current to the battery positive terminal is provided from
ground through the synchronous switch. In both cases,
these switched currents return to ground via the output

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
Power Considerations
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
large as possible to reduce the thermal resistance of the
IC case to ambient air.

Consideration should be given for power dissipation and
overall efficiency in a LT3651 charger. A detailed analysis
is beyond the scope of the data sheet, however following
are general guidelines.

creasing frequency all other things constant. At 15V V

The major components of power loss are: conduction

Of course all of these must be experimentally confirmed
in the actual charger.
