Single Chip Smart Battery Charger Controller
The LTC®4100 Smart Battery Charger is a single chip n
100% Compliant (Rev. 1.1) SMBus Support Allows
charging solution that dramatically simplifies construction
for Operation with or without Host
of an SBS compliant system. The LTC4100 implements n
SMBus Accelerator Improves SMBus Timing
a Level 2 charger function whereby the charger can be n
Wide Output Voltage Range: 3.5V to 26V
programmed by the battery or by the host. A SafetySignal n Hardware Interrupt and SMBAlert Response on the battery being charged is monitored for temperature, Eliminate Interrupt Polling connectivity and battery type information. The SMBus n High Efficiency Synchronous Buck Charger interface remains alive when the AC power adapter is n 0.5V Dropout Voltage; Maximum Duty Cycle > 98% removed and responds to all SMBus activity directed to n AC Adapter Current Limit Maximizes Charge Rate it, including SafetySignal status (via the ChargerStatus n ±0.8% Voltage Accuracy; ±4% Current Accuracy command). The charger also provides an interrupt to the n Up to 4A Charging Current Capability host whenever a status change is detected (e.g., battery n 10-Bit DAC for Charge Current Programming removal, AC adapter connection). n 11-Bit DAC for Charger Voltage Programming Charging current and voltage are restricted to chemistry- n User-Selectable Overvoltage and Overcurrent Limits specific limits for improved system safety and reliability. n High Noise Immunity SafetySignal Sensor Limits are programmable by two external resistors. Ad- n Available in a 24-Pin SSOP Package ditionally, the maximum average current from the AC adapter is programmable to avoid overloading the adapter
