The LTC®4058 is a complete constant-current/constantvoltage linear charger for single cell lithium-ion batteries.
Its DFN package and low external component count make
the LTC4058 ideally suited for portable applications. Furthermore, the LTC4058 is designed to work within USB
power specifications.
The LTC4058 can Kelvin sense the battery terminal for
more accurate float voltage charging. No external sense
resistor or external blocking diode are required due to the
internal MOSFET architecture. Thermal feedback regulates the charge current to limit the die temperature during
high power operation or high ambient temperature conditions. The charge voltage is fixed at 4.2V and the charge
current is programmed with a resistor. The LTC4058
terminates the charge cycle when the charge current
drops to 10% of the programmed value after the final float
voltage is reached.
When the input supply (wall adapter or USB supply) is
removed, the LTC4058 enters a low current state dropping
the battery drain current to less than 2µA. Other features
include charge current monitor, undervoltage lockout,
automatic recharge and status pins to indicate charge
termination and the presence of an input voltage.

BSENSE (Pin 1): Battery Sense. This pin is used to Kelvin
sense the positive battery terminal and regulate the final
float voltage to 4.2V. An internal precision resistor divider
sets this float voltage and is disconnected in shutdown
mode. For Li-Ion applications, this pin must be electrically connected to BAT.
BAT (Pin 2): Charge Current Output. Provides charge
current to the battery from the internal P-channel MOSFET.
CHRG (Pin 3): Charge Status Open-Drain Output. When
the battery is charging, the CHRG pin is pulled low by an
internal N-channel MOSFET. When the charge cycle is
completed, CHRG becomes high impedance.
GND (Pins 4, 9): Ground/Exposed Pad. The exposed
backside of the package (Pin 9) is also ground and must
be soldered to the PC board for maximum heat transfer.
PROG (Pin 5): Charge Current Program and Charge Current Monitor. Charge current is programmed by connecting a 1% resistor, RPROG, to ground. When charging in
constant-current mode, this pin servos to 1V. In all modes,

the voltage on this pin can be used to measure the charge
current using the following formula:
ACPR (Pin 7): Power Supply Status Open-Drain Output.
When VCC is greater than the undervoltage lockout threshold and at least 100mV above VBSENSE, the ACPR pin is
pulled to ground; otherwise, the pin is high impedance.
IBAT = (VPROG/RPROG) • 1000
This pin is clamped to approximately 2.4V. Driving this pin
to voltages beyond the clamp voltage can draw currents as
high as 1.5mA.
EN (Pin 8): Enable Input . A logic high on the EN pin will put
the LTC4058 into shutdown mode where the battery drain
current is reduced to less than 2µA and the supply current
is reduced to less than 50µA. A logic low or floating the EN
pin (allowing an internal 2MΩ pull-down resistor to pull
this pin low) enables charging.
VCC (Pin 6): Positive Input Supply Voltage. Provides
power to the charger. VCC can range from 4.25V to 6.5V.
This pin should be bypassed with at least a 1µF capacitor.
When VCC is within 100mV of the BSENSE pin voltage, the
LTC4058 enters shutdown mode dropping the battery
drain current to less than 2µA.

LTC4058-4.2/LTC4058X-4.2
U
OPERATIO
The LTC4058 is a single cell lithium-ion battery charger
using a constant-current/constant-voltage algorithm. It
can deliver up to 950mA of charge current (using a good
thermal PCB layout) with a final float voltage accuracy of
±1%. The LTC4058 includes an internal P-channel power
MOSFET and thermal regulation circuitry. No blocking
diode or external current sense resistor is required; thus,
the basic charger circuit requires only two external components. Furthermore, the LTC4058 is capable of operating from a USB power source.
Normal Charge Cycle
A charge cycle begins when the voltage at the VCC pin rises
above the UVLO threshold level and a 1% program resistor
is connected from the PROG pin to ground. If the BSENSE
pin is less than 2.9V, the charger enters trickle charge mode.
In this mode, the LTC4058 supplies approximately 1/10th
the programmed charge current to bring the battery voltage up to a safe level for full current charging. (Note: The
LTC4058X does not include this trickle charge feature.)
When the BSENSE pin voltage rises above 2.9V, the charger
enters constant-current mode where the programmed
charge current is supplied to the battery. When the BSENSE
pin approaches the final float voltage (4.2V), the LTC4058
enters constant-voltage mode and the charge current begins to decrease. When the charge current drops to 1/10th
of the programmed value, the charge cycle ends.
Programming Charge Current
The charge current is programmed using a single resistor
from the PROG pin to ground. The charge current out of
the BAT pin is 1000 times the current out of the PROG pin.
The program resistor and the charge current are calculated using the following equations:
RPROG =
1000 V
1000 V
, I CHG =
ICHG
RPROG
Charge current out of the BAT pin can be determined at any
time by monitoring the PROG pin voltage and using the
following equation:
IBAT =
Charge Termination
The charge cycle terminates when the charge current falls
to 10% the programmed value after the final float voltage
is reached. This condition is detected by using an internal,
filtered comparator to monitor the PROG pin. When the
PROG pin voltage falls below 100mV1 for longer than
tTERM (typically 1ms), charging is terminated. The charge
current is latched off and the LTC4058 enters standby
mode where the input supply current drops to 200µA.
(Note: C/10 termination is disabled in trickle charging and
thermal limiting modes.)
When charging, transient loads on the BAT pin can cause
the PROG pin to fall below 100mV for short periods of time
before the DC charge current has dropped to 10% of the
programmed value. The 1ms filter time (tTERM) on the
termination comparator ensures that transient loads of
this nature do not result in premature charge cycle termination. Once the average charge current drops below 10%
of the programmed value, the LTC4058 terminates the
charge cycle and ceases to provide any current through
the BAT pin. In this state, all loads on the BAT pin must be
supplied by the battery.
The LTC4058 constantly monitors the BAT pin voltage in
standby mode. If this voltage drops below the 4.1V recharge
threshold (VRECHRG), another charge cycle begins and
charge current is once again supplied to the battery. To
manually restart a charge cycle when in standby mode, the
input voltage must be removed and reapplied or the charger
must be shut down and restarted using the EN pin. Figure␣ 1
shows the state diagram of a typical charge cycle.
Charge Status Indicator (CHRG)
The charge status output has two states: pull-down and
high impedance. The pull-down state indicates that the
LTC4058 is in a charge cycle. Once the charge cycle has
terminated or the LTC4058 is disabled, the pin state
becomes high impedance.
1Any external sources that hold the PROG pin above 100mV will prevent the LTC4058 from
terminating a charge cycle.

An internal undervoltage lockout circuit monitors the input
voltage and keeps the charger in shutdown mode until VCC
rises above the undervoltage lockout threshold. The UVLO
circuit has a built-in hysteresis of 200mV. Furthermore, to
protect against reverse current in the power MOSFET, the
UVLO circuit keeps the charger in shutdown mode if VCC
falls to within 30mV of the BSENSE voltage. If the UVLO
comparator is tripped, the charger will not come out of
shutdown mode until VCC rises 100mV above the BSENSE
voltage.

Figure 1. State Diagram of a Typical Charge Cycle
Manual Shutdown
The power supply status output has two states: pull-down
and high impedance. The pull-down state indicates that
VCC is above the UVLO threshold (3.8V) and is also 100mV
above the battery voltage. When these conditions are not
met, the ACPR pin is high impedance indicating that the
LTC4058 is unable to charge the battery.
At any point in the charge cycle, the LTC4058 can be put
into shutdown mode by driving the EN pin high. This
reduces the battery drain current to less than 2µA and the
supply current to less than 50µA. When in shutdown
mode, the CHRG pin is in the high impedance state. A new
charge cycle can be initiated by driving the EN pin low. A
resistor pull-down on this pin forces the LTC4058 to be
enabled if the pin is allowed to float.
Thermal Limiting
Automatic Recharge
An internal thermal feedback loop reduces the programmed
charge current if the die temperature attempts to rise above
a preset value of approximately 120°C. This feature protects
the LTC4058 from excessive temperature and allows the
user to push the limits of the power handling capability of
a given circuit board without risk of damaging the LTC4058.
The charge current can be set according to typical (not worst
case) ambient temperature with the assurance that the
Once the charge cycle is terminated, the LTC4058 continuously monitors the voltage on the BSENSE pin using a
comparator with a 2ms filter time (tRECHARGE). A charge
cycle restarts when the battery voltage falls below 4.10V
(which corresponds to approximately 80% to 90% battery
capacity). This ensures that the battery is kept at, or near,
a fully charged condition and eliminates the need for
periodic charge cycle initiations. The CHRG output enters
a pull-down state during recharge cycles.

Kelvin Sensing the Battery (BSENSE Pin)
The internal P-channel MOSFET drain is connected to the
BAT pin, while the BSENSE pin connects through an internal precision resistor divider to the input of the constantvoltage amplifier. This architecture allows the BSENSE pin
to Kelvin sense the positive battery terminal. This is especially useful when the copper trace from the BAT pin to the
Li-Ion battery is long and has a high resistance. High
charge currents can cause a significant voltage drop between the positive battery terminal and the BAT pin. In this
situation, a separate trace from the BSENSE pin to the
battery terminals will eliminate this voltage error and result in more accurate battery voltage sensing. The BSENSE
pin MUST be electrically connected to the BAT pin.
Stability Considerations
The constant-voltage mode feedback loop is stable without an output capacitor, provided a battery is connected to
the charger output. With no battery present, an output
capacitor on the BAT pin is recommended to reduce ripple
voltage. When using high value, low ESR ceramic capacitors, it is recommended to add a 1Ω resistor in series with
the capacitor. No series resistor is needed if tantalum
capacitors are used.
In constant-current mode, the PROG pin is in the feedback
loop, not the battery. The constant-current mode stability
is affected by the impedance at the PROG pin. With no
additional capacitance on the PROG pin, the charger is
stable with program resistor values as high as 20k; however, additional capacitance on this node reduces the
maximum allowed program resistor. The pole frequency
at the PROG pin should be kept above 100kHz. Therefore,
if the PROG pin is loaded with a capacitance, CPROG, the
following equation can be used to calculate the maximum
resistance value for RPROG:
RPROG ≤
1
2π • 105 • CPROG
Average, rather than instantaneous charge current may be
of interest to the user. For example, if a switching power
supply operating in low current mode is connected in
parallel with the battery, the average current being pulled
out of the BAT pin is typically of more interest than the
instantaneous current pulses. In such a case, a simple RC
filter can be used on the PROG pin to measure the average
battery current, as shown in Figure 2. A 10k resistor has
been added between the PROG pin and the filter capacitor
to ensure stability.

Power Dissipation
It is not necessary to design for worst-case power dissipation scenarios because the LTC4058 automatically reduces the charge current during high power conditions.
The conditions that cause the LTC4058 to reduce charge
current through thermal feedback can be approximated by
considering the power dissipated in the IC. Nearly all of
this power dissipation is generated by the internal
MOSFET—this is calculated to be approximately:
PD = (VCC – VBAT) • IBAT
where PD is the power dissipated, VCC is the input supply
voltage, VBAT is the battery voltage and IBAT is the charge
current. The approximate ambient temperature at which
the thermal feedback begins to protect the IC is:
TA = 120°C – PDθJA
TA = 120°C – (VCC – VBAT) • IBAT • θJA
Example: An LTC4058 operating from a 5V supply is
programmed to supply 800mA full-scale current to a
discharged Li-Ion battery with a voltage of 3.3V. Assuming
θJA is 50°C/W (see Thermal Considerations), the ambient
temperature at which the LTC4058 will begin to reduce the
charge current is approximately:
TA = 120°C – (5V – 3.3V) • (800mA) • 50°C/W
TA = 120°C – 1.36W • 50°C/W = 120°C – 68°C
TA = 52°C

The LTC4058 can be used above 52°C ambient but the
charge current will be reduced from 800mA. The approximate current at a given ambient temperature can be
approximated by:
IBAT =
120°C – TA
( VCC – VBAT ) • θJA
Using the previous example with an ambient temperature
of 60°C, the charge current will be reduced to
approximately:
IBAT
120°C – 60°C

=
=
(5V – 3.3V) • 50°C/W 85°C/A
IBAT = 706mA
Moreover, when thermal feedback reduces the charge current the voltage at the PROG pin is also reduced proportionally as discussed in the Operation section. It is important
to remember that LTC4058 applications do not need to be
designed for worst-case thermal conditions since the IC will
automatically reduce power dissipation when the junction
temperature reaches approximately 120°C.
Thermal Considerations
In order to deliver maximum charge current under all
conditions, it is critical that the exposed metal pad on the
backside of the LTC4058 package is soldered to the PC
board ground. Correctly soldered to a 2500mm2 doublesided 1oz copper board, the LTC4058 has a thermal
resistance of approximately 40°C/W. Failure to make
thermal contact between the exposed pad on the backside of the package and the copper board will result in
thermal resistances far greater than 40°C/W. As an
example, a correctly soldered LTC4058 can deliver over
800mA to a battery from a 5V supply at room temperature. Without a backside thermal connection, this number will drop considerably.
ceramic capacitors. Because of the self-resonant and high
Q characteristics of some types of ceramic capacitors,
high voltage transients can be generated under some
start-up conditions such as connecting the charger input
to a live power source. Adding a 1.5Ω resistor in series
with an X5R ceramic capacitor will minimize start-up
voltage transients. For more information, see Application
Note 88.
Charge Current Soft-Start
The LTC4058 includes a soft-start circuit to minimize the
inrush current at the start of a charge cycle. When a charge
cycle is initiated, the charge current ramps from zero to
the full-scale current over a period of approximately 100µs.
This has the effect of minimizing the transient current load
on the power supply during start-up.
USB and Wall Adapter Power
The LTC4058 allows charging from both a wall adapter
and a USB port. Figure 3 shows an example of how to
combine wall adapter and USB power inputs. A P-channel
MOSFET, MP1, is used to prevent back conducting into
the USB port when a wall adapter is present and a
Schottky diode, D1, is used to prevent USB power loss
through the 1k pull-down resistor.
Typically a wall adapter can supply more current than the
500mA-limited USB port. Therefore, an N-channel
MOSFET, MN1, and an extra 3.3k program resistor are
used to increase the charge current to 800mA when the
wall adapter is present.
