High Efficiency 2A Li-Ion Battery Charger
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES




The TS55101 is a DC/DC synchronous switching
Li-ion Battery Charger with fully integrated power
switches, internal compensation, and full fault
protection. The switching frequency of 1MHz
enables the use of small filter components,
resulting in smaller board space and reduced BOM
costs.







The TS55101 utilizes constant current trickle
charge in Pre-Charge mode. In Full-Charge mode
the output current is limited to 1C. Under Top-Off
mode load conditions, the regulator operates in
voltage mode. When the regulator is disabled (EN
is low), the device draws less than 10uA quiescent
current from the battery.



The TS55101 integrates a wide range of protection
circuitry; including input supply under-voltage
lockout, output over-voltage protection, current
limit, thermal shutdown, and battery temperature
monitoring. Supervisory reporting is done through
the nFLT (Inverted Fault) open drain output to
interface other components in the system. Device
programming is achieved by an I2C interface
through SCL and SDA pins.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The TS55101 is a fully-integrated Li-Ion battery charger IC based on a highly-efficient switching topology. It includes
configurability for termination voltage, charge current and a host of other variables to allow optimum charging conditions for a
wide range of Li-Ion batteries. A 1 MHz internal switching frequency facilitates low-cost LC filter combinations.
When the battery voltage is below 3.0 volts, the device will enter a pre-charge state and apply a small, programmable charge
current to safely charge the battery to a level for which full charge current can be applied. Once the full charge mode has been
initiated, the device will maximize available charge current to the battery by adjusting its duty cycle to regulate its input voltage
to the MPP voltage of the photovoltaic cell. If sufficient current is available from the PV cell to exceed the safe 1C charge rate of
the battery, then the programmable 1C current limit function will take precedence over the MPP control function and the PV
cell voltage will rise above the MPP value.
When the battery voltage has increased enough to go into maintenance mode, the PWM control loop will force a constant
voltage across the battery. Once in constant voltage mode, current is monitored to determine when the battery is fully charged.
This regulation voltage as well as the 1C charging current can be set to change based on battery temperature. There are 4
temperature ranges where these can be set independently, 0-10°C, 10-45°C, 45-50°C and 50-60°C. The 0°C and 60°C thresholds
will stop charging and have 10 degrees of hysteresis. The intermediate points have 1 degree of hysteresis.
