LTC4070 Li-Ion/Polymer Shunt Battery Charger System FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Low Operating Current (450nA) The LTC®4070 allows simple charging of Li-Ion/Polymer n 1% Float Voltage Accuracy Over Full Temperature batteries from very low current, intermittent or continu- and Shunt Current Range ous charging sources. The 450nA to 50mA operating cur- n 50mA Maximum Internal Shunt Current rent makes charging possible from previously unusable (500mA with External PFET) sources. With the addition of an external pass device, n Pin Selectable Float Voltage Options: shunt current may be boosted to 500mA. Stacked cell high 4.0V, 4.1V, 4.2V voltage battery packs are inherently balanced with shunt n Ultralow Power Pulsed NTC Float Conditioning for charging. With its low operating current, the LTC4070 is Li-Ion/Polymer Protection well suited to charge thin film batteries in energy harvest- n Suitable for Intermittent, Continuous and Very Low ing applications where charging sources may be intermit- Power Charging Sources tent or very low power. The unique architecture of the n Low and High Battery Status Outputs LTC4070 allows for an extremely simple battery charger n Simple Low Voltage Load Disconnect Application solution; requiring just one external resistor. n Thermally Enhanced, Low Profile (0.75mm) The LTC4070 offers a pin selectable float voltage with 1% 8-Lead (2mm × 3mm) DFN and MSOP Packages accuracy across the full range of operating temperature and shunt current. The integrated thermal battery quali- APPLICATIONS fier extends battery lifetime and improves reliability by n automatically reducing the battery float voltage at NTC Low Power Li-Ion/Polymer Battery Back-Up n thermistor temperatures above 40°C. The LTC4070 also Solar Power Systems with Back-Up n provides both low and high battery status outputs. For Memory Back-Up n applications requiring pack protection, see LTC4071.
