4009fd ltc4009 ltc4009-1/ltc4009-2 o pera t ion overview the ltc4009 is a synchronous step-down (buck) current mode pwm battery charger controller. the maximum charge current is programmed by the combination of a charge current sense resistor (r sense ), matched input resistors (r in , figure 1), and a programming resistor (r prog ) between the prog and gnd pins. battery volt- age is programmed either with an external resistor divider between fbdiv and gnd (ltc4009) or two digital battery voltage select pins (ltc4009-1/ltc4009-2). in addition, the prog pin provides a linearized voltage output of the actual charge current. the ltc4009 family does not have any built-in charge termination and is flexible enough for charging any type of battery chemistry. these are building block ics intended for use with an external circuit, such as a microcontroller, capable of managing the entire algorithm required for the specific battery being charged. each member of the ltc4009 family features a shutdown input and various state indicator outputs, allowing easy and direct management by a wide range of external (digital) charge controllers. due to the popularity of rechargeable lithium-ion chemistries, the ltc4009-1 and ltc4009-2 also offer internal precision resistors that can be digitally selected to produce one of four preset output voltages for simplified design of those charger types. shutdown the ltc4009 remains in shutdown until dcdiv exceeds 1.2v, and shdn is driven above 1.4v. in shutdown, current drain from the battery is reduced to the lowest possible level, thereby increasing standby time. when in shutdown, the ith pin is pulled to gnd and the chrg, icl, fet gate drivers and intv dd output are all disabled. the acp status output indicates sensed adapter input voltage during all ltc4009 states. charging can be stopped at any time by forcing shdn below 300mv. soft-start exiting the shutdown state enables the charger and releases the ith pin. when enabled, switching will not begin until clp exceeds bat by 100mv and ith exceeds a threshold that assures initial current will be positive (about 5% to 25% of the maximum programmed current). to limit inrush current, soft-start delay is created with the compensation values used on the ith pin. longer soft-start times can be realized by increasing the filter capacitor on ith, if reduced loop bandwidth is acceptable. the actual charge current at the end of soft-start will depend on which loop (current, voltage or adapter limit) is in control of the pwm. if this current is below that required by the ith start-up threshold, the resulting charge current transient duration depends on loop compensation but is typically less than 100s. bulk charge when soft-start is complete, the ltc4009 begins sourc- ing the current programmed by the external components connected to csp, csn and prog. some batteries may require a small conditioning trickle current if they are heavily discharged. as shown in the applications information sec- tion, the ltc4009 can address this need through a variety of low current circuit techniques on the prog pin. once a suitable cell voltage has been reached, charge current can be switched to a higher, bulk charge value. end-of-charge and chrg output as the battery approaches the programmed output volt- age, charge current will begin to decrease. the open- drain chrg output can indicate when the current drops to 10% of its programmed full-scale value by turning off the strong pull-down (open-drain fet) and turning on a weak 25a pull-down current. this weak pull-down state is latched until the part enters shutdown or the sensed current rises to roughly c/6. c/10 indication will not be set if charge current has been reduced due to adapter input current limiting or dcin/battery overvoltage. as the charge current approaches 0a, the pwm continues to operate in full continuous mode. this avoids generation of audible noise, allowing bulk ceramic capacitors to be used in the application.
ltc4009 ltc4009-1/ltc4009-2 4009fd charge current monitoring when the ltc4009 is charging, the voltage on the prog pin varies in direct proportion to the charge current. referring to figure 1, the nominal prog voltage is given by v i r r r a r prog chrg sense prog in prog = + ? ? . ?11 67 voltage tolerance on prog is limited by the charge current accuracy specified in the electrical characteristics table. refer to the applications information section on program- ming charge current for additional details. adapter input current limit the ltc4009 can monitor and limit current from the input dc supply, which is normally an ac adapter. when the programmed adapter input current is reached, charge current is reduced to maintain the desired maximum input current. the ith and prog pins will reflect the reduced charge current. this limit function avoids overloading the dc input source, allowing the product to operate at the same time the battery is charging without complex load management algorithms. the battery will automatically be charged at the maximum possible rate that the adapter will support, given the applications operating condition. the ltc4009 can only limit input current by reducing charge current, and in this case the charger uses nonsynchro- nous pwm operation to prevent boosting if the average charge current falls below about 25% of the maximum programmed current. note that the icl indicator output becomes active (low) at an adapter input current level just slightly less than that required for the internal amplifier to begin to assert control over the pwm loop. if system load current equals or exceeds the input adapter current limit for more than a few milliseconds, the bootstrap capacitor between boost and sw can fully discharge due to normal pin leakage currents. in this case, the pwm will not restart until the system current has dropped to about 85% of the programmed input adapter limit value. charger status indicator outputs the ltc4009 open-drain indicator outputs provide valu- able information about the ics operating state and can o pera t ion figure 1. pwm circuit diagram ? ? ? + ? + ea ca ? + cc 19 2 11 pwm logic oscillator watchdog timer loop compensation tgate system power l1 r in + ? 16 bgate 15 csp 14 csn 13 prog 10 v fb 12 ith r prog r1 from icl 1.2085v r sense v sense i chrg 4009 f01 c prog qs clock ltc4009 clp bat r d r in +

ltc4009 ltc4009-1/ltc4009-2 4009fd pwm watchdog timer as input and output conditions vary, the ltc4009 may need to utilize pwm duty cycles approaching 100%. in this case, operating frequency may be reduced well below 550khz. an internal watchdog timer observes the activity on the tgate pin. if tgate is on for more than 40s, the watchdog activates and forces the bottom nfet on (top nfet off) for about 100ns. this avoids a potential source of audible noise when using ceramic input or output capacitors and prevents the boost supply capacitor for the top gate driver from discharging. in low drop out operation, the actual charge current may not be able to reach the programmed full-scale value due to the watchdog function. overvoltage protection the ltc4009 also contains overvoltage detection that prevents transient battery voltage overshoots of more than about 6% above the programmed output voltage. when battery overvoltage is detected, both external mosfets are turned off until the overvoltage condition clears, at which time a new soft start sequence begins. this is useful for properly charging battery packs that use an internal switch to disconnect themselves for performing functions such as calibration or pulse mode charging. reverse charge current protection (anti-boost) because the ltc4009 always attempts to operate synchro- nously in full continuous mode (to avoid audible noise from ceramic capacitors), reverse average charge current can occur during some invalid operating conditions. to avoid boosting a lightly loaded system supply during reverse operation, the ltc4009 monitors the voltage on clp to determine if it rises 25mv above dcin during charge. however, under heavier system loads, clp may not boost above dcin, even though reverse average current is flow- ing. in this case a second circuit monitors indication of reverse average current on prog. if the designer intends to replace the input diode with a mosfet for improved efficiency, using the acp signal of the ltc4009 to control the mosfet is not recommended. in this case, the ltc4012 is strongly suggested, because it includes ideal diode control of the mosfet, instead of driving it as a simple switch. this solution is the most ef- fective at detecting boost conditions and quickly shutting down the ic. if for some reason the ltc4012 solution is not acceptable, and a mosfet with external control is used to replace the input diode, and there are conditions involving very low reverse current under no system load with an ac adapter that cannot sink current, it may still be possible to boost the dcin input supply. to cover this case, the ltc4009 monitors the resistor divider attached to the dcdiv pin and sets an input overvoltage fault if that voltage exceeds 1.825v. if any of these circuits detects boost operation, the ltc4009 turns off both external mosfets until the reverse current condition clears. once dcin-clp > 25mv, a new soft-start sequence begins. o pera t ion

4009fd ltc4009 ltc4009-1/ltc4009-2 the ltc4009 limits maximum instantaneous peak inductor current during every pwm cycle. to avoid unstable switch waveforms, the ripple current must satisfy: ? i mv r i l sense max < ? ? ? ? ? ? 2 150 ? ? so choose: l v f mv r i clp pwm sense max 1 0 125 150 > ? ? ? ? ? ? . ? ? ? for c-grade parts, a reasonable starting point for setting ripple current is i l = 0.4 ? i max . for i-grade parts, use i l = 0.2 ? i max only if the ic will actually be used to charge batteries over the wider i-grade temperature range. the voltage compliance of internal ltc4009 circuits also im- poses limits on ripple current. select r in (in figure 1) to avoid average current errors in high ripple designs. the following equation can be used for guidance: r i a r r i a sense l in sense l ? ? ? ? 50 20 r in should not be less than 2.37k or more than 6.04k. val- ues of r in greater than 3.01k may cause some reduction in programmed current accuracy. use these equations and guidelines, as represented in table 6, to help select the cor- rect inductor value. this table was developed for c-grade parts to maintain maximum i l near 0.6 ? i max with f pwm at 550khz and v bat = 0.5 ? v clp (the point of maximum i l ), assuming that inductor value could also vary by 25% at i max . for i-grade parts, reduce maximum i l to less than 0.4 ? i max , but only if the ic will actually be used to charge batteries over the wider i-grade temperature range. in that case, a good starting point can be found by multiplying the inductor values shown in table 6 by a factor of 1.6 and rounding up to the nearest standard value. table 6. minimum typical inductor values v clp l1 (typ) i max r sense r in r prog <10v 10h 1a 100m 3.01k 26.7k 10v to 20v 20h 1a 100m 3.01k 26.7k >20v 28h 1a 100m 3.01k 26.7k <10v 5.1h 2a 50m 3.01k 26.7k 10v to 20v 10h 2a 50m 3.01k 26.7k >20v 14h 2a 50m 3.01k 26.7k to guarantee that a chosen inductor is optimized in any given application, use the design equations provided and perform bench evaluation in the target application, par- ticularly at duty cycles below 20% or above 80% where pwm frequency can be much less than the nominal value of 550khz. tgate boost supply use the external components shown in figure 11 to de- velop a bootstrapped boost supply for the tgate fet driver. a good set of equations governing selection of the two capacitors is: c q v c c g 1 20 4 5 2 20 1 = = ? . , ? a pplica t ions i n f or m a t ion figure 11. tgate boost supply 20 17 boost intv dd 18 sw ltc4009 4009 f11 c2 2f c1 0.1f l1 to r sense d1 1n4148

( ) + ( ) ? where is the temperature dependency of r ds(on) , ?t is the temperature rise above the point specified in the fet data sheet for r ds(on) and k is a constant inversely related to the internal ltc4009 top gate driver. the term (1 + ? t) is generally given for a mosfet in the form of a normalized r ds(on) curve versus temperature, but of 0.005/c can be used as a suitable approximation for logic-level fets if other data is not available. c rss = q gd /dv ds is usually specified in the mosfet character- istics. the constant k = 2 can be used in estimating top fet dissipation. the ltc4009 is designed to work best with external fet switches with a total gate charge at 5v of 15nc or less. for v clp < 20v, high charge current efficiency generally improves with larger fets, while for v clp > 20v, top gate transition losses increase rapidly to the point that using a topside nfet with higher r ds(on) but lower c rss can actually provide higher efficiency. if the charger will be operated with a duty cycle above 85%, overall efficiency is normally improved by using a larger top fet. the synchronous (bottom) fet losses are greatest at high input voltage or during a short circuit, which forces a low side duty cycle of nearly 100%. increasing the size of this fet lowers its losses but increases power dissipation in the ltc4009. using asymmetrical fets will normally achieve cost savings while allowing optimum efficiency. select fets with bv dss that exceeds the maximum v clp voltage that will occur. both fets are subjected to this level of stress during operation. many logic-level mosfets are limited to 30v or less. a pplica t ions i n f or m a t ion
4009fd ltc4009 ltc4009-1/ltc4009-2 the ltc4009 uses an improved adaptive tgate and bgate drive that is insensitive to mosfet inertial delays, t d(on/off) , to avoid overlap conduction losses. switching characteristics from power mosfet data sheets apply only to a specific test fixture, so there is no substitute for bench evaluation of external fets in the target application. in general, mosfets with lower inertial delays will yield higher efficiency. diode selection a schottky diode in parallel with the bottom fet and/or top fet in an ltc4009 application clamps sw during the non-overlap times between conduction of the top and bottom fet switches. this prevents the body diode of the mosfets from forward biasing and storing charge, which could reduce efficiency as much as 1%. one or both diodes can be omitted if the efficiency loss can be tolerated. a 1a schottky is generally a good size for 3a chargers due to the low duty cycle of the non-overlap times. larger diodes can actually result in additional efficiency (transition) losses due to larger junction capacitance. loop compensation and soft-start the three separate pwm control loops of the ltc4009 can be compensated by a single set of components at- tached between the ith pin and gnd. as shown in the typical ltc4009 application, a 6.04k resistor in series with a capacitor of at least 0.1f provides adequate loop compensation for the majority of applications. the ltc4009 can be soft-started with the compensation capacitor on the ith pin. at start-up, ith will quickly rise to about 0.25v, then ramp up at a rate set by the com- pensation capacitor and the 40a ith bias current. the full programmed charge current will be reached when ith reaches approximately 2v. with a 0.1f capacitor, the time to reach full charge current is usually greater than 1.5ms. this capacitor can be increased if longer start-up times are required, but loop bandwidth and dynamic response will be reduced. intv dd regulator output bypass the intv dd regulator output to gnd with a low esr x5r or x7r ceramic capacitor with a value of 0.47f or larger. the capacitor used to build the boost supply (c2 in figure 11) can serve as this bypass. do not draw more than 30ma from this regulator for the host system, governed by ic power dissipation. calculating ic power dissipation the user should ensure that the maximum rated junction temperature is not exceeded under all operating conditions. the thermal resistance of the ltc4009 package ( ja ) is 37c/w, provided the exposed pad is in good thermal contact with the pcb. the actual thermal resistance in the application will depend on forced air cooling and other heat sinking means, especially the amount of copper on the pcb to which the ltc4009 is attached. the following formula may be used to estimate the maximum average power dissipation p d (in watts) of the ltc4009, which is dependent upon the gate charge of the external mosfets. this gate charge, which is a function of both gate and drain voltage swings, is determined from specifications or graphs in the manufacturers data sheet. for the equation below, find the gate charge for each transistor assuming 5v gate swing and a drain voltage swing equal to the maximum v clp voltage. maximum ltc4009 power dissipation under normal operating conditions is then given by: p d = dcin(2.8ma + i dd + 665khz(q tgate + q bgate )) C 5i dd where: i dd = average external intv dd load current, if any q tgate = gate charge of external top fet in coulombs q bgate = gate charge of external bottom fet in coulombs a pplica t ions i n f or m a t ion
ltc4009 ltc4009-1/ltc4009-2 4009fd pcb layout considerations to prevent magnetic and electrical field radiation and high frequency resonant problems, proper layout of the components connected to the ltc4009 is essential. refer to figure 12. for maximum efficiency, the switch node rise and fall times should be minimized. the following pcb design priority list will help insure proper topology. layout the pcb using this specific order. 1. input capacitors should be placed as close as possible to switching fet supply and ground connections with the shortest copper traces possible. the switching fets must be on the same layer of copper as the input capacitors. vias should not be used to make these connections. 2. place the ltc4009 close to the switching fet gate terminals, keeping the connecting traces short to produce clean drive signals. this rule also applies to ic supply and ground pins that connect to the switching fet source pins. the ic can be placed on the opposite side of the pcb from the switching fets. 3. place the inductor input as close as possible to the switching fets. minimize the surface area of the switch node. make the trace width the minimum needed to support the programmed charge current. use no cop- per fills or pours. avoid running the connection on multiple copper layers in parallel. minimize capacitance from the switch node to any other trace or plane. 4. place the charge current sense resistor immediately adjacent to the inductor output, and orient it such that current sense traces to the ltc4009 are not long. these feedback traces need to be run together as a single pair with the smallest spacing possible on any given layer on which they are routed. locate any filter component on these traces next to the ltc4009, and not at the sense resistor location. 5. place output capacitors adjacent to the sense resistor output and ground. 6. output capacitor ground connections must feed into the same copper that connects to the input capacitor ground before connecting back to system ground. 7. connection of switching ground to system ground, or any internal ground plane, should be single-point. if the system has an internal system ground plane, a good way to do this is to cluster vias into a single star point to make the connection. 8. r oute analog ground as a trace tied back to the ltc4009 gnd paddle before connecting to any other ground. avoid using the system ground plane. a useful cad technique is to make analog ground a separate ground net and use a 0 resistor to connect analog ground to system ground. 9. a good rule of thumb for via count in a given high current path is to use 0.5a per via. be consistent when applying this rule. figure 12. high speed switching path 4009 f12 v bat l1 r sense high frequency circulating path bat analog ground system ground switch node c in switching ground c out v in gnd d1 + a pplica t ions i n f or m a t ion
