LTC4007-1 4A, High Efficiency, Li-Ion Battery Charger FeaTuresDescripTion n Charger Controller for 3- or 4-Cell The LTC®4007-1 is a constant-current/constant-voltage Lithium-Ion Batteries charger controller for 3- or 4-cell lithium-ion batteries. n High Conversion Efficiency: Up to 96% The PWM controller uses a synchronous, quasi-constant n Output Currents Exceeding 4A frequency, constant off-time architecture that will not n ±0.8% Charging Voltage Accuracy generate audible noise even when using ceramic capaci- n Built-In Charge Termination for Li-Ion Batteries tors. Charging current is programmable to ±4% accuracy n AC Adapter Current Limiting Maximizes Charge Rate* using a programming resistor. Charging current can also be n Thermistor Input for Temperature Qualified Charging monitored as a voltage across the programming resistor. n Wide Input Voltage Range: 6V to 28V The output float voltage is pin programmed for cell count n 0.5V Dropout Voltage; Maximum Duty Cycle: 98% (3 cells or 4 cells) and chemistry (4.2V/4.1V). A timer, pro- n Programmable Charge Current: ±4% Accuracy grammed by an external resistor, sets the total charge time. n Indicator Outputs for Charging, C/10 Current Detection, AC Adapter Present, Low Battery, Input The LTC4007-1 includes a thermistor input, which Current Limiting and Faults suspends charging if an unsafe temperature condition n Charging Current Monitor Output is detected. If the cell voltage is less than 3.25V, a low- n Available in a 24-Pin 4mm × 5mm QFN Package battery indicator asserts and can be used to program a trickle charge current to safely charge depleted batteries. applicaTions The FAULT pin is also asserted and charging terminates if the low-battery condition persists for more than 1/4 of n Notebook Computers the total charge time. n Portable Instruments L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks and n Battery-Backup Systems No RSENSE is a trademark of Linear Technology Corporation.
