The bq24085/6/7/8 series are highly integrated Li-Ion and Li-Pol linear chargers, targeted at space-limited portable applications. The battery is charged in three phases: conditioning, constant or thermally regulated current, and constant voltage. An internal programmable charge timer provides a backup protection feature for charge termination and is dynamically adjusted during the thermal regulation phase.
The typical application diagrams shown here are configured for 400 mA fast charge current, 40 mA pre-charge current, 5 hour safety timer and 30 min pre-charge timer.
In most applications, all that is needed is a high-frequency decoupling capacitor on the input power pin. A 1-μF ceramic capacitor, placed in close proximity to the IN pin and GND pad, works fine. In some applications, depending on the power supply characteristics and cable length, it may be necessary to increase the input filter capacitor to avoid exceeding the IN pin maximum voltage rating during adapter hot plug events.
The bq2408x, at low charge currents, requires a small output capacitor for loop stability. A 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor placed between the BAT and ISET pad is typically sufficient.
Some low cost adapters implement a half rectifier topology, which causes the adapter output voltage to fall below the battery voltage during part of the cycle. To enable operation with low cost adapters under those conditions the bq2408x family keeps the charger on for at least 25 msec (typical) after the input power puts the part in sleep mode. This feature enables use of external low cost adapters using 50-Hz networks.
The backgate control circuit prevents any reverse current flowing from the battery to the adapter terminal during the charger off delay time.
NOTE
The PG pin is not deglitched, and it indicates input power loss immediately after the input voltage falls below the output voltage. If the input source frequently drops below the output voltage and recovers, a small capacitor can be used from PG to VSS to prevent PG flashing events.
Program the charge current for 400 mA:
where
Selecting the closest standard value, use a 1.13-kΩ resistor connected between ISET (pin 6) and ground.
Program 5-hour safety timer timeout:
where
Selecting the closest standard value, use a 49.9-kΩ resistor connected between TMR (pin 2) and ground.
Disable the temp sense function:
A constant voltage between VTS1 and VTS2 on the TS input disables the temp sense function.
from the Electrical Characteristics table. . . V(TS1) = 30% × VIN
from the Electrical Characteristics table. . . V(TS2) = 61% × VIN
A constant voltage of 50% × Vin disables the temp sense function, so a divide-by-2 resistor divider connected between Vin and ground can be used. Two 1-MΩ resistors keeps the power dissipated in this divider to a minimum.
For a 0 to 45°C range with a Semitec 103AT thermistor, the thermistor values are 4912 at 45°C and 27.28 k at 0°C. RT1 (top resistor) and RT2 (bottom resistor) are calculated in Equation 12:
PIN | COMPONENTS |
IN | In most applications, the minimum input capacitance needed is a 0.1-μF ceramic decoupling capacitor near the input pin connected to ground (preferably to a ground plane through vias). The recommended amount of input capacitance is 1 μF or at least as much as on the output pin. This added capacitance helps with hot plug transients, input inductance and initial charge transients. |
OUT | There is no minimum value for capacitance for this output, but TI recommends to connect a 1-μF ceramic capacitor between OUT and ground. This capacitance helps with termination, and cycling frequency between charge done and refresh charge when no battery is present. It also helps cancel out any battery lead inductance for long leaded battery packs. TI also recommends to put as much ceramic capacitance on the input as the output so as not to cause a drop out of the input when charging is initiated. |
ISET/BAT | For stability reasons, it may be necessary to put a 0.1-μF capacitor between the ISET and BAT pin.. |
STAT1/2 and PG | Optional (LED STATUS – See below, Processor Monitored; or no status) |
STAT1 | Connect the cathode of a red LED to the open-collector STAT1 output, and connect the anode of the red LED to the input supply through a 1.5-kΩ resistor that limits the current. |
STAT2 | Connect the cathode of a green LED to the open-collector STAT2 output, and connect the anode of the green LED to the input supply through a 1.5-kΩ resistor that limits the current. |
PG | Connect the cathode of an LED to the open-collector PG output, and connect the anode of the LED to the input supply through a 1.5-kΩ resistor to limit the current. |
