LTC4081
500mA Li-Ion Charger
with NTC Input and
300mA Synchronous Buck
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
Battery Charger:
The LTC®4081 is a complete constant-current/constant-
voltage linear battery charger for a single-cell 4.2V
lithium-ion/polymer battery with an integrated 300mA
synchronous buck converter. A 3mm × 3mm DFN pack-
age and low external component count make theLTC4081
especially suitable for portable applications. Furthermore,
the LTC4081 is specifically designed to work within USB
power specifications.
n
Constant-Current/Constant-Voltage Operation
with Thermal Feedback to Maximize Charge Rate
without Risk of Overheating
n
Internal 4.5-Hour Safety Timer for Termination
n
Charge Current Programmable Up to 500mA with
5% Accuracy
n
NTC Thermistor Input for Temperature Qualified
Charging
The CHRG pin indicates when charge current has dropped
to ten percent of its programmed value (C/10). An internal
4.5-hour timer terminates the charge cycle. The full-
featured LTC4081 battery charger also includes trickle
charge, automatic recharge, soft-start (to limit inrush
current) and an NTC thermistor input used to monitor
battery temperature.

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 4: Although the LTC4081 charger functions properly at 3.75V, full
charge current requires an input voltage greater than the desired final
battery voltage per DV

OPERATION
The LTC4081 is a full-featured linear battery charger with
an integrated synchronous buck converter designed pri-
marily for handheld applications. The battery charger is
capable of charging single-cell 4.2V Li-Ion batteries. The
buck converter is powered from the BAT pin and has a
programmable output voltage providing a maximum load
current of 300mA. The converter and the battery charger
can run simultaneously or independently of each other.

terminates and the CHRG pin assumes a high impedance
state even if C/10 has not yet been reached. To restart the
charge cycle, remove the input voltage and reapply it or
momentarily force the EN_CHRG pin above V . A new

age falls below V
(typically 4.1V).
RECHRG
Featuring an internal P-channel power MOSFET, MP1,
the battery charger uses a constant-current/constant-
voltage charge algorithm with programmable current.
Charge current can be programmed up to 500mA with a
final float voltage of 4.2V 0.5%. The CHRG open-drain
status output indicates when C/10 has been reached.
No blocking diode or external sense resistor is required;
thus, the basic charger circuit requires only two external
components.Aninternalchargeterminationtimeradheres
to battery manufacturer safety guidelines. Furthermore,
the LTC4081 battery charger is capable of operating from
a USB power source.
Constant-Current/Constant-Voltage/Constant-Temperature
The LTC4081 battery charger uses a unique architecture
tochargeabatteryinaconstant-current,constant-voltage
and constant-temperature fashion. Three of the amplifier
feedback loops shown control the constant-current, CA,
constant-voltage,VA,andconstant-temperature,TAmodes
(seeBlockDiagram).Afourthamplifierfeedbackloop,MA,
is used to increase the output impedance of the current
source pair, MP1 and MP3 (note that MP1 is the internal
P-channel power MOSFET). It ensures that the drain cur-
rent of MP1 is exactly 400 times the drain current of MP3.
A charge cycle begins when the voltage at the V pin
CC
Amplifiers CA and VA are used in separate feedback loops
to force the charger into constant-current or constant-
voltage mode, respectively. Diodes D1 and D2 provide
priority to either the constant-current or constant-voltage
loop, whichever is trying to reduce the charge current
the most. The output of the other amplifier saturates low
which effectively removes its loop from the system. When
in constant-current mode, CA servos the voltage at the
PROG pin to be precisely 1V. VA servos its non-inverting
input to 1.22V when in constant-voltage mode and the
internal resistor divider made up of R1 and R2 ensures
that the battery voltage is maintained at 4.2V. The PROG
pin voltage gives an indication of the charge current any-
time in the charge cycle, as discussed in “Programming
Charge Current” in the Applications Information section.
rises above 3.6V and approximately 82mV above the BAT
pin voltage, a 1% program resistor is connected from the
PROG pin to ground, and the EN_CHRG pin is pulled
below the shutdown threshold (V ).
IL
When the BAT pin approaches the final float voltage of
4.2V,thebatterychargerentersconstant-voltagemodeand
the charge current begins to decrease. When the current
drops to 10% of the full-scale charge current, an internal
comparator turns off the N-channel MOSFET driving the
CHRG pin, and the pin becomes high impedance.
An internal thermal limit reduces the programmed charge
current if the die temperature attempts to rise above a
presetvalueofapproximately115°C. Thisfeatureprotects
the LTC4081 from excessive temperature and allows the
user to push the limits of the power handling capability
of a given circuit board without the risk of damaging the
LTC4081 or external components. Another benefit of the
thermal limit is that charge current can be set according
to typical, rather than worst-case, ambient temperatures
for a given application with the assurance that the battery
If the die temperature starts to creep up above 115°C
due to internal power dissipation, the transconductance
amplifier, TA, limits the die temperature to approximately
115°C by reducing the charge current. Diode D3 ensures
that TA does not affect the charge current when the die

tery charger is in a charge cycle. A high impedance state
indicates that the charge current has dropped below 10%
of the full-scale current or the battery charger is disabled.
When the timer runs out (4.5 hrs), the CHRG pin is also

threshold has a built-in hysteresis of approximately 50mV.

age is below 2.9V, the battery charger goes into trickle
charge mode, reducing the charge current to 10% of the
programmed current. If the low battery voltage persists
for one quarter of the total time (1.125 hr), the battery is
assumed to be defective, the charge cycle terminates and
the CHRG pin output pulses at a frequency of 2Hz with
a 75% duty cycle. If, for any reason, the battery voltage
rises above 2.9V, the charge cycle will be restarted. To
restart the charge cycle (i.e., when the dead battery is

OPERATION
At power-up or when exiting shutdown, the charge time
is set to 4.5 hours. Once the charge cycle terminates, the
batterychargercontinuouslymonitorstheBATpinvoltage
using a comparator with a 2ms filter time. When the aver-
age battery voltage falls below 4.1V (which corresponds
to 80% – 90% battery capacity), a new charge cycle is
initiated and a 2.25 hour timer begins. This ensures that
the batteryiskept at, ornear, afully charged conditionand
eliminates the need for periodic charge cycle initiations.
The CHRG output assumes a strong pull-down state dur-
ing recharge cycles until C/10 is reached or the recharge
cycle terminates.

value of the NTC thermistor drops to 0.53 times the value
of R , which corresponds to approximately 40°C, and
NOM

approximately 0°C. The hot and cold comparators each

The battery temperature is measured by placing a nega-
tive temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor close to
the battery pack. The NTC circuitry is shown in Figure 1.
When the charger is in Hold mode (battery temperature
is either too hot or too cold) the CHRG pin pulses in a

ing regulator) if the die temperature exceeds 160°C. The
LTC4081 resumes normal operation once the temperature
drops approximately 14°C.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
BATTERY CHARGER
Average,ratherthaninstantaneous,batterycurrentmaybe
of interest to the user. For example, when the switching
regulator operating in low current mode is connected in
parallel with the battery, the average current being pulled
out of the BAT pin is typically of more interest than the
instantaneous current pulses. In such a case, a simple RC
filter can be used on the PROG pin to measure the average
battery current as shown in Figure 2. A 10k resistor has
been added between the PROG pin and the filter capacitor
to ensure stability.
Programming Charge Current
The battery charge current is programmed using a single
resistor from the PROG pin to ground. The charge current
is400timesthecurrentoutofthePROGpin. Theprogram
resistor and the charge current are calculated using the
following equations:

Stability Considerations
The LTC4081 battery charger contains two control loops:
constant-voltage and constant-current. The constant-
voltage loop is stable without any compensation when a
battery is connected with low impedance leads. Excessive
lead length, however, may add enough series inductance
Undervoltage Charge Current Limiting (UVCL)
USB powered systems tend to have highly variable source
impedances (due primarily to cable quality and length). A
transient load combined with such impedance can easily

to require a bypass capacitor of at least 1µF from BAT to
GND. Furthermore, a 4.7µF capacitor with a 0.2W to 1W
series resistor from BAT to GND is required to keep ripple
voltage low when the battery is disconnected.
ConsiderasituationwheretheLTC4081isoperatingunder
normal conditions and the input supply voltage begins to
sag (e.g. an external load drags the input supply down).
In constant-current mode, the PROG pin voltage is in
the feedback loop, not the battery voltage. Because of
the additional pole created by PROG pin capacitance,
capacitance on this pin must be kept to a minimum. With
no additional capacitance on the PROG pin, the battery
charger is stable with program resistor values as high
as 25k. However, additional capacitance on this node
reduces the maximum allowed program resistor. The pole
frequency at the PROG pin should be kept above 100kHz.
Therefore, if the PROG pin is loaded with a capacitance,

LTC4081 will continue to operate at the reduced charge

Operation from Current Limited Wall Adapter
By using a current limited wall adapter as the input sup-

the wall adapter.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Considerasituationwhereanapplicationrequiresa200mA
charge current for a discharged 800mAh Li-Ion battery.
If a typical 5V (non-current limited) input supply is avail-
able then the peak power dissipation inside the part can
exceed 300mW.
Typically a wall adapter can supply significantly more
current than the current-limited USB port. Therefore, an
N-channel MOSFET, MN1, and an extra program resistor
can be used to increase the charge current when the wall
adapter is present.
Now consider the same scenario, but with a 5V input sup-
ply with a 200mA current limit. To take advantage of the
supply, it is necessary to program the LTC4081 to charge
atacurrentgreaterthan200mA.AssumethattheLTC4081
Power Dissipation
The conditions that cause the LTC4081 battery charger to
reduce charge current through thermal feedback can be
approximated by considering the total power dissipated
in the IC. For high charge currents, the LTC4081 power
dissipation is approximately:
charger is programmed for 300mA (i.e., R
= 1.33kW)
PROG
to ensure that part tolerances maintain a programmed
current higher than 200mA. Since the battery charger will
demand a charge current higher than the current limit of
the input supply, the supply voltage will collapse to the
battery voltage plus 200mA times the on-resistance of the
internal PFET. The on-resistance of the battery charger
power device is approximately 0.7W with a 5V supply.
The actual on-resistance will be slightly higher due to the
fact that the input supply will have collapsed to less than
5V. The power dissipated during this phase of charging
is approximately 30mW. That is a ten times improvement
over the non-current limited supply power dissipation.

Although the LTC4081 allows charging from a USB port,
a wall adapter can also be used to charge Li-Ion batter-
ies. Figure 3 shows an example of how to combine wall
adapter and USB power inputs. A P-channel MOSFET,
MP1, is used to prevent back conducting into the USB
port when a wall adapter is present and Schottky diode,
D1, is used to prevent USB power loss through the 1k
pull-down resistor.
It is not necessary to perform worst-case power dissipa-
tion scenarios because the LTC4081 will automatically
reduce the charge current to maintain the die temperature
at approximately 115°C. However, the approximate ambi-
ent temperature at which the thermal feedback begins to

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
If there is more power dissipation due to the regulator,
the thermal regulation will begin at a somewhat lower
temperature. In the above circumstances, the LTC4081
can be used above 82.75°C, but the charge current will
be reduced from 250mA. The approximate current at a
given ambient temperature can be calculated:
Power conscious designs may want to use thermistors whose
room temperature value is greater than 10k. Vishay Dale has a
number of values of thermistor from 10k to 100k that follow
the “R-T Curve 1.” Using different R-T curves, such as Vishay
Dale“R-TCurve2”,isalsopossible.Thiscurve,combinedwith
LTC4081 internal thresholds, gives temperature trip points of
approximately 0°C (falling) and 40°C (rising), a delta of 40°C.
This delta in temperature can be moved in either direction by
changing the value of RNOM with respect to RNTC. Increasing
RNOM will move both trip points to higher temperatures. To
calculate RNOM for a shift to lower temperature for example,
use the following equation:

Many types of capacitors can be used for input bypassing;
however, caution must be exercised when using multi-layer

voltage transients can be generated under some start-up
conditions, such as connecting the battery charger input to

Here is an example using a 100k R-T Curve 2 thermistor
from Vishay Dale. The difference between the trip points is
40°C, from before, and we want the cold trip point to be 0°C,
which would put the hot trip point at 40°C. The RNOM needed
is calculated as follows:
a live power source. Adding a 1

between the cold and hot trip points, a resistor, R1, can be
added in series with RNTC (see Figure 4). The values of the
resistors are calculated as follows:
NTC Trip Point Error
When a 1% resistor is used for RHOT, the major error in the
40°C trip point is determined by the tolerance of the NTC
thermistor.Atypical100kNTCthermistorhas 10%tolerance.
By looking up the temperature coefficient of the thermistor
at 40°C, the tolerance error can be calculated in degrees
centigrade. Consider the Vishay NTHS0603N01N1003J
thermistor, which has a temperature coefficient of –4%/°C at
40°C. Dividing the tolerance by the temperature coefficient,
5%/(4%/°C) = 1.25°C, gives the temperature error of the
hot trip point.

where RNOM is the value of the bias resistor and RHOT and
RCOLD are the values of RNTC at the desired temperature trip

trip point of 50°C:
The cold trip point error depends on the tolerance of the NTC
thermistor and the degree to which the ratio of its value at
0°C and its value at 40°C varies from 6.14 to 1. Therefore,
the cold trip point error can be calculated using the tolerance,
TOL, the temperature coefficient of the thermistor at 0°C, TC
(in %/°C), the value of the thermistor at 0°C, RCOLD, and the
value of the thermistor at 40°C, RHOT. The formula is:

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Many different sizes and shapes of inductors are available
from numerous manufacturers. To maximize efficiency,
chooseaninductorwithalowDCresistance. Keepinmind
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. Also choose an induc-
tor with a DC current rating at least 1.5 times larger than
the peak inductor current limit to ensure that the inductor
does not saturate during normal operation. To minimize
radiated noise use a toroid or shielded pot core inductor
in ferrite or permalloy materials. Table 1 shows a list of
several inductor manufacturers.

apparently higher packing density but poor performance
over their rated voltage or temperature ranges. Under

ceramic capacitors should be compared directly by case
size rather than specified value for a desired minimum
capacitance. Some manufacturers provide excellent data
on their websites about achievable capacitance. Table 2
shows a list of several ceramic capacitor manufacturers.
To be able to deliver maximum charge current under all
conditions, it is critical that the exposed metal pad on the
backside of the LTC4081’s package has a good thermal
contact to the PC board ground. Correctly soldered to a

2500mm double-sided 1 oz. copper board, the LTC4081

to make thermal contact between the exposed pad on the
backside of the package and the copper board will result
in thermal resistance far greater than 43°C/W.
