Low Cost Multi-Chemistry Battery
Charger Controller
Features
The ISL6256AEVAL2Z Evaluation kit includes all the circuitry
needed to demonstrate the capabilities of the ISL6256
Lithium-Ion battery-charger with integrated AC adapter
current limit. The user can experiment with an extensive
matrix of battery charge parameters, AC adapter current
limit, monitor functions and load switching.
• ±3% Accurate Input Current Limit
• ±0.5% Charge Voltage Accuracy (-10°C to +100°C)
The ISL6256, ISL6256A is a highly integrated battery charger
controller for Li-ion/Li-ion polymer batteries. High Efficiency is
achieved by a synchronous buck topology and the use of a
MOSFET, instead of a diode, for selecting power from the
adapter or battery. The low side MOSFET emulates a diode at
light loads to improve the light load efficiency and prevent
system bus boosting.
The constant output voltage can be selected for 2-, 3- and
4-series Li-ion cells with 0.5% accuracy over-temperature. It
can also be programmed between 4.2V +5%/cell and
4.2V -5%/cell to optimize battery capacity. When supplying
the load and battery charger simultaneously, the input current
limit for the AC adapter is programmable to within 3%
accuracy to avoid overloading the AC adapter, and to allow
the system to make efficient use of available adapter power
for charging. It also has a wide range of programmable
charging current. The ISL6256, ISL6256A provides outputs
that are used to monitor the current drawn from the AC
adapter, and monitor for the presence of an AC adapter. The
ISL6256, ISL6256A automatically transitions from regulating
current mode to regulating voltage mode.
ISL6256, ISL6256A has a feature for automatic power source
selection by switching to the battery when the AC adapter is
removed or switching to the AC adapter when the AC adapter
is available. It also provides a DC adapter monitor to support
aircraft power applications with the option of no battery
charging.

Step 3: Select the Battery Charger Current Limit
(Table 3)
This Evaluation Board Kit contains the following materials:
• Qty(1) ISL625xEVAL2Z Evaluation Board
• Qty(1) ISL6256EVAL2Z Setup Procedure
What is Needed
The following materials are recommended to perform
testing:
• One adjustable 25V 6A power supply
• Two adjustable electronic loads with constant current
mode and constant voltage mode
• Two DVMs
• One 500MHz four channel oscilloscope
• Four passive oscilloscope voltage probes
• Two 10ADC Current Probes
• One signal generator
Jumper Selection Guide
The CHLIM pin chooses the desired battery charger current
limit threshold. Preset battery charger current limit
thresholds are selected by placing a shunt jumper across the
appropriate pins of JP4. For other battery charger current
limit thresholds, install a shunt jumper across pins 3 and 4,
which connects the wiper of potentiometer R22 to CHLIM.
Potentiometer R22 may be removed and replaced with
resistors R6 and R7.

Step 4: Select the AC Adapter Current Limit (Table 4)
The CELLS pin chooses the correct output voltage clamp for
a given number of cells series-connected in the battery pack.
Select the output voltage by placing a shunt jumper across
the appropriate pins of JP1.
The ACLIM pin chooses the desired AC adapter current limit
threshold. Preset AC adapter current limit thresholds are
selected by placing a shunt jumper across the appropriate
pins of JP5. For other AC adapter current limit thresholds,
install a shunt jumper across pins 3 and 4, which connects the
wiper of potentiometer R23 to ACLIM. Potentiometer R23
may be removed and replaced with resistors R17 and R18.

The VADJ pin trims the battery charger output voltage limit.
Preset battery charger output voltage limits are selected by
placing a shunt jumper across the appropriate pins of JP6.
For other battery charger output voltage limits, install a shunt
jumper across pins 3 and 4, which connects the wiper of
potentiometer R24 to VADJ. Potentiometer R24 may be
removed and replaced with resistors R19 and R21. Resistor
R20 limits the trim increase to 1%. Shorting R20 allows the
trim to increase 5%. Decreasing trim range is unaffected.
