Complete Backup-Management ICs
for Lithium and NiMH Batteries
The MAX8568A/MAX8568B backup-battery-management
ICs are complete charging and backup switchover control solutions for PDAs, Smart Phones, and other smart
portable devices. They charge both NiMH and
rechargeable lithium battery types and feature programmable charge current and termination voltage.
Separate optimized charge algorithms for both lithium
and NiMH cells are included on-chip.
The MAX8568A/MAX8568B also manage backup
switchover from a primary power source. An accurate onchip voltage detector monitors the main supply and
backs up two system supplies (typically I/O and memory)
when main power falls. On-chip drivers switch external
MOSFETs to disconnect the main supply from the system
loads so the backup source is not drained.
Low-voltage backup cells can be stepped up by an onchip synchronous-rectified, low-quiescent-current boost
converter. Additionally, a low-quiescent-current LDO generates a second backup voltage. The MAX8568A LDO is
preset to 2.5V while the MAX8568B LDO is preset to 1.8V.
Both devices are supplied in 16-pin 3mm x 3mm thin
QFN packages rated for -40°C to +85°C operation.

Complete Backup-Management ICs
for Lithium and NiMH Batteries
The MAX8568A/MAX8568B are compact ICs for managing backup battery charging and utilization in PDAs and
other smart handheld devices. The MAX8568A/
MAX8568B are comprised of three major blocks: 1) A
multichemistry charger for small lithium-ion, lithium-manganese, LiVeO5, and NiMH batteries; 2) a small verylow-current step-up DC-DC converter that generates a
boosted backup supply when the backup battery output
is less than required; and 3) an LDO that supplies a
second backup voltage to an additional system block
(typically low-voltage RAM).
Multichemistry Charger
The backup battery charger charges most types of
rechargeable lithium and NiMH cells. Charging current
can be set up to 25mA by a resistor connected from
CHGI to GND. The charger operates a current-limited
voltage source for rechargeable lithium batteries, and
switches between fast and trickle charging for NiMH
batteries.
NiMH Charging Scheme
The NiMH charger operates at two different charge currents based upon the voltages at TERMV and STRTV.
VSTRTV sets the BK voltage below which fast charging
(set by CHGI) occurs. VTERMV sets the upper BK trip
point where fast charging stops and trickle charging
begins, and also sets a maximum voltage limit for the
NiMH battery. If VTERMV is 1.2V, then fast charge stops
at 1.2 / 0.86 = 1.4V, and the maximum voltage limit is
1.2 / 0.67 = 1.791V.
An NiMH battery fast charges until it hits 1.4V set by
VTERMV. The charger then switches to trickle charge at
a current that is 10% of fast charge (set by CHGI). If the
voltage drops (due to loading or self-discharge) to 1.2V
(with VSTRTV = 1.2V), fast charge resumes. If the voltage then increases back to 1.4V (with VTERMV = 1.2V),
trickle charge resumes. If the cell voltage reaches 1.8V,
the charge current falls to zero.
Lithium Charging Scheme
When charging rechargeable lithium-type batteries,
VTERMV sets the charging voltage while VSTRTV is unused.
Charge current is set by a resistor from CHGI to GND.
There is no trickle charge for lithium mode. This charging
scheme is essentially a current-limited voltage source.
Step-Up DC-DC Converter
If an NiMH battery or lower-voltage rechargeable lithium
battery is used for backup, it may be necessary to boost
the battery voltage to 2.5V, 3.3V, or some other voltage to
power RAM, RTC, or other devices. The step-up DC-DC
converter is powered by the backup battery but requires
that the I/O supply be activated at least one time before
the backup battery can be stepped up. This allows the
end product to draw no backup battery current while “on
the shelf” waiting for its first activation. The step-up DCDC converter is enabled, and reaches regulation, 50µs
(typ) after INOK falls below 2.43V (typ).
The step-up converter includes a built-in synchronous
rectifier that reduces cost by eliminating the need for
an external diode and improves overall efficiency. The
converter also features a clamp circuit that reduces
EMI due to inductor ringing. The output voltage is set to
3.3V or 2.5V by connecting BKV to either GND or
BKSU, respectively. For adjustable output, connect
BKV to a resistor-divider from BKSU to GND.
LDO
For designs that require two different backup voltages,
the MAX8568 includes a small LDO that is powered from
BKSU. This LDO can supply up to 10mA and uses only
5µA of operating current. The LDO output is preset to
2.5V in the MAX8568A and 1.8V in the MAX8568B. The
LDO is activated after VINOK falls below 2.43V (typ).
Switchover Behavior
See Figure 1 for switchover timing. If the backup battery is connected to the system before main power, the
MAX8568 remains off and draws very little current, typically less than 0.5µA. This allows the end product to
draw no backup battery current while “on the shelf”
waiting for its first activation. When main power is connected, the MAX8568 powers on, assuming the main
battery is greater than 2.8V. The MAX8568 begins to
charge the backup battery if needed (see the
Multichemistry Charger section). The OD1 and OD2
outputs pull to GND and turn on the external p-channel
MOSFETs. This allows the voltage on I/O IN and MEM
IN (Figure 7) to pass through to the I/O OUT and MEM
OUT outputs. These I/O and MEM voltages are typically
provided by a MAX1586/MAX1587 power-supply IC.
INOK monitors the main battery voltage and activates
the backup boost converter and LDO when the voltage
on V INOK falls below 2.43V. The backup converter
starts 50µs after VINOK falls. OD1 and OD2 go high
impedance and turn off the external p-channel
MOSFETs. These MOSFETs disconnect the I/O IN and
MEM IN inputs from the load. This ensures that the I/O
and MEM main supplies do not draw current from the
backup source (MAX8568). The charger also turns off
when INOK is less than 2.43V.
If the MAX8568 is being evaluated as a stand-alone
device, note that the backup-battery boost converter will
not operate unless I/O IN has been activated at least one
time. The typical power removal sequence for testing is 1)
main battery goes low, then 2) MEM IN and I/O IN go low.

Applications Information
Setting the Charge Current
Charge current is set by a resistor connected from CHGI
to GND (R5 in Figure 7). The acceptable resistor range is
from 50kΩ to 1800kΩ. Charge current is calculated by
the following.
Charge Current = 1690 / RCHGI +
(VIN - VBK - 2.3) x (1.05mA/V)
where VBK is the nominal voltage of the charged backup battery. For lithium batteries charging at low cur-
10
rents, desired R CHGI may need to be determined
emperically. This is the fast-charge current for both
NiMH and lithium batteries. For NiMH batteries, the
trickle charge is 10% of the fast-charge current.
Using a Rechargeable Lithium
Backup Battery
The MAX8568 can charge a lithium-type backup battery from the main battery connected at IN. Connect
NI/LI to GND for lithium backup battery charging.
STRTV is unused and should be connected to GND in
lithium charge mode.

where VREF =1.25V.
Using an NiMH Backup Battery
The MAX8568 can charge NiMH backup batteries from
the main battery connected at IN. Connect NI/LI to
BKSU for NiMH backup battery charging. VTERMV sets
the maximum cell voltage and also the trip point for the
fast-charge-to-trickle-charge transition. VSTRTV sets the
trickle-to-fast-charge transition threshold.
In NiMH charge mode (NI/LI connected to BKSU), the
charger ramps the battery between two thresholds
measured at the battery connection BK, VBK(NILO) and
VBK(NIHI). When the battery falls to VBK(NILO), trickle
charging stops and fast charging starts. When the battery rises to VBK(NIHI), fast charging stops and trickle
charging begins. If, for any reason, the battery contin-
REF
ues to rise when trickle charged, all charging ceases at
VBK(NIMAX). VBK(NILO), VBK(NIHI), and VBK(NIMAX) are
set as follows:
BK voltage where fast charge begins:
VBK(NILO) = VSTRTV
BK voltage where trickle charge begins:
VBK(NIHI) = 1.163 x VTERMV
BK voltage where all charging stops:
VBK(NIMAX) = 1.493 x VTERMV
Resistor-dividers (see Figure 3) set VSTRTV and VTERMV
by dividing down REF. To minimize operating current,
resistors between 100kΩ and 1MΩ should be used for
R14 and R16 in Figure 3. The formulas for the upper

The lithium charger acts like a current-limited voltage
source. The battery regulation voltage for lithium mode,
VBK(LIMAX), is:

If VTERMV = 1.2V, then the final charge voltage is 4.2V.

Step-Up Converter
The step up DC-DC converter is most likely used with
NiMH backup batteries, but can also be used with
rechargeable lithium backup batteries. If the backup
battery voltage is greater than the set output voltage at
BKSU, the output voltage follows the backup battery
voltage. The voltage difference between the backup
battery and BKSU never exceeds a diode forward-voltage drop. If I/O OUT (Figure 7) is less than BK during
charge mode, no current flows from BK to I/O OUT.

VINOK sets the IN voltage at which backup mode starts.
INOK connects to a resistor-divider between IN and
GND. The MAX8568 requires VIN greater than 2.8V for
proper operation when not backing up, so the backup
threshold, VIN(BACKUP), must be set for no less than
2.8V. Once VINOK drops below 2.43V (typ), VIN may be
less than 2.8V. The resistor-divider for INOK is shown in
Figure 7 (R9 and R10). Select resistor R10 to be in the

Step-Up Capacitor Selection
Choose output capacitors to supply output peak currents with acceptable voltage ripple. Low equivalentseries-resistance (ESR) capacitors are recommended.
Ceramic capacitors have the lowest ESR, but low-ESR
tantalum or polymer capacitors offer a good balance
between cost and performance.
Output voltage ripple has two components: variations in
the charge stored in the output capacitor with each LX
pulse and the voltage drop across the capacitor’s ESR
caused by the current into and out of the capacitor. The
equations for calculating output ripple are:
VRIPPLE = VRIPPLE(C) + VRIPPLE(ESR)
VRIPPLE(ESR) = IPEAK x RESR(CBKSU)
VRIPPLE(C) =
1⎛
⎜
2 ⎝ (VBKSU

⎞
L

⎟ IPEAK

where I PEAK is the peak inductor current (see the
Inductor Selection section). For ceramic capacitors, the
output voltage ripple is typically dominated by
VRIPPLE(C).
Input capacitors connected to IN and BK should be
X5R or X7R ceramic capacitors. CIN should be 4.7µF or
greater. CBK should be 10µF or greater when using the
step-up converter. If the step-up converter is not used,
then CBK can be reduced to 1µF.
Capacitance and ESR variation with temperature should
be considered for best performance in applications with
wide operating temperature ranges.

where tON(MAX) is typically 5µs, and the current limit (ILIM)
is typically 500mA (see the Electrical Characteristics
table).
For larger inductor values, determine the peak inductor
current (IPEAK) by:
IPEAK =
VBK × t ON(MAX)
L
Setting the Output Voltage
The output voltage is set to 2.5V or 3.3V, or is
adjustable. Connect BKV to GND for 3.3V, and BKV to
BKSU for 2.5V. The adjustable output voltage is set
from 2.5V to 5V using external resistors R1 and R2
(Figure 7). Since FB leakage is 50nA (max), select
feedback resistor R2 in the 100kΩ to 1MΩ range.
Calculate R1 as follows:
⎛V
R1 = R2 ⎜ BKSU
⎝ VBKV
−
⎞
1⎟
⎠
where VBKV = 1.21V.
LDO
The LDO output voltage is preset to 2.5V for the
MAX8568A and 1.8V for the MAX8568B. The LDO can
supply up to 10mA. The LDO output voltage is not
adjustable.
LDO Capacitor Selection
Capacitors are required at the LDO output of the
MAX8568 for stable operation over the full load and temperature range. A 4.7µF or greater X5R or X7R ceramic
capacitor is recommended. To reduce noise and
improve load-transient response, larger output capacitors up to 10µF can be used. Surface-mount ceramic
capacitors have very low ESR and are commonly available in values up to 10µF. Note that some ceramic
dielectrics, such as Z5U and Y5V, exhibit large capacitance and ESR variation with temperature and require
larger than the recommended values to maintain stability
and good load-transient response over temperature.
External MOSFET Drivers—OD1, OD2
OD1 and OD2 are open-drain outputs and are
designed to be connected to the gates of external pchannel MOSFETs (see Figure 7). These MOSFETs
connect the main system power supplies (I/O IN and
MEM IN) to the system loads (I/O OUT and MEM OUT)
during normal operation. During backup, they disconnect the power supplies from the system loads to prevent the power supplies from drawing backup current
away from the system. For this reason, the MOSFETs
are connected “backwards” from what might be
expected. The source of the MOSFETs are connected
to the system load side (I/O OUT and MEM OUT). The
MOSFETs’ purpose is to block current flow from the
backup supply (BKSU) to the main supplies (I/O IN and
MEM IN). They do not block current flow from I/O IN to
I/O OUT and from MEM IN to MEM OUT. Even when off,
the MOSFET body diodes allow current to pass in that
direction.
OD1 is intended to drive the MOSFET switch for I/O IN
and I/O OUT, while OD2 is intended to drive the MOSFET
switch for MEM IN and MEM OUT. See the Typical
Operating Characteristics and Figure 1 for typical operation of OD1 and OD2.
External MOSFET Selection
The external MOSFET should be chosen based upon
RDS(ON) and gate capacitance. When VINOK > 2.43V
(main battery > 2.8V), the current required for normal
operation of I/O and MEM goes through these external
MOSFETs. Choose an R DS(ON) that minimizes the
MOSFET voltage drop. When V INOK < 2.43V, the
MOSFET turns off, and MEM and I/O are powered by
the MAX8568. The gate capacitance of the external
MOSFET must discharge through the external gate-tosource resistor. This discharge time determines how
quickly the main supply is disconnected and isolated.
______________________________________________________________________________________

MAX8568A/MAX8568B
Inductor Selection
The control scheme of the MAX8568 permits flexibility in
choosing an inductor. A 10µH inductor performs well in
most applications. Smaller inductance values typically
offer smaller physical size for a given series resistance,
allowing the smallest overall circuit dimensions. Circuits
using larger inductance may provide higher efficiency
and exhibit less ripple, but also may reduce the maximum output current. This occurs when the inductance is
sufficiently large to prevent the LX current limit (ILIM)
from being reached before the maximum on-time
(tON(MAX)) expires.
For maximum output current, choose the inductor value
so that the controller reaches the current limit before
the maximum on-time is reached:
MAX8568A/MAX8568B
Complete Backup-Management ICs
for Lithium and NiMH Batteries
Pullup resistors, R3 and R4 in Figure 7, should be selected to ensure that when OD1 and OD2 go high impedance, the gate of the external MOSFET discharges within
50µs to 100µs. This time allows the backup converters to
start and provide power to I/O and MEM. Discharges
longer than 50µs to 100µs could cause the main supply
to back drain current from the MAX8568 and allow the
I/O OUT and MEM OUT voltage to droop. The MOSFET
gate-source resistor, RGS, is calculated from the following formulas:

VGS(TH) ⎞
VBKSU ⎟⎠
where the MOSFET gate-source threshold, VGS(TH),
and MOSFET input capacitance, CISS, are provided on
the MOSFET data sheet.
Connection with MAX1586
When the MAX8568 is used with the MAX1586 system
power supply, it may be preferable to employ the
MAX1586’s voltage monitors to determine when backup
should start. The connection for this is shown in Figure 5
where the dead-battery output (DBO) of the MAX1586
drives the INOK input of the MAX8568. This, in effect,
overrides the voltage-sensing circuit on the MAX8568
and uses the DBO monitor on the MAX1586. Refer to the
MAX1586 data sheet for information on how to set the
DBO threshold. The CHG connection in Figure 5 is
described in the next section.
Terminating Charging at a Voltage Other
than the Switchover Voltage
In normal operation, the MAX8568 charger is always
active as long as the INOK voltage is valid (above
2.43V). In some systems, however, it may be desirable to
terminate backup battery charging when the main battery is somewhat depleted but not so low as to trigger
backup. An external voltage monitor, or a voltage monitor in a power-supply IC, such as the MAX1586, can disable charging by disconnecting the CHGI resistor. If
CHGI is open, no charging current flows. This can be
accomplished with the circuit in Figure 5. The low-battery
output (LBO) of the MAX1586 pulls low when the battery
falls below a user-set level (refer to the MAX1586 data
sheet). This turns off the external n-channel MOSFET (or

for any reason using this method.
PC Board Layout and Routing
Careful PC board layout is important for minimizing
ground bounce and noise. Ensure that C1 (IN input
capacitor), C2 (BK input capacitor), C3 (BKSU bypass
capacitor), and C4 (LDO output capacitor) are as close
as possible to the IC. Avoid using vias to connect C2 or
C3 to their respective pins or GND. C2 and C3 grounds
should be next to each other, and this connection can
then be used as the star ground point. All other grounds
should connect to the star ground. PGND should star at
C2 and C3, and should not connect directly to the
exposed pad (EP) of the MAX8568. Connect EP to the
bottom layer ground plane, and then connect the
ground plane to the star ground. Vias on the inductor
path are acceptable if necessary. IN, BK, BKSU, and
LDO traces should be as wide as possible to minimize
inductance. Refer to the MAX8568 evaluation kit for a
PC board layout example.
