The ISL6291 is packed in a thermally enhanced 5x5 QFN
package. See the Technical Brief TB389 given in the Related
Literature for more information related to the package.
• 1% Voltage Accuracy
VIN
When the wall adapter is not present, the ISL6291 draws
less than 1A current from the battery. Two logic outputs
provide the charging status and fault information, and an
easy interface to system logic. A V2P8 pin outputs a 2.8V
reference voltage that can be used to bias other circuits, or
as an indication for the adapter presence.
• No External Reverse Blocking Diode Required
GND
The ISL6291 is a constant-current (CC)/constant-voltage
(CV) charger. The constant charge current is programmable
up to 2.0A with an external signal resistor. An internal
trimmed current-sense circuit guarantees 10% accuracy,
with no bulky external current-sense resistor. The constant
voltage is either 4.1V or 4.2V. The charger always
preconditions the battery with 1/10 of the programmed
charge current at the beginning of a charge cycle, until it
verifies that the battery can be fast-charged. A safety timer
prevents over-charging a dead battery. The charging
terminates as the charge current falls below the
programmed minimum current during the CV mode. The
charger automatically re-charges the battery when the
battery voltage drops below a recharge threshold. A simple
interface with an NTC thermistor avoids charging the battery
outside a programmable temperature window. A thermalfoldback feature of the ISL6291 guarantees safe operation
when the printed circuit board space is limited for thermal
dissipation. The charger reduces the charge current
automatically, as the internal temperature rises above a
preset level, to prevent further temperature rise.

Functional Pin Description
V2P8 (Pin 8)
VIN (Pin 1, 15, 16)
VIN is the input power source pin that is connected to a wall
adapter.
FAULT (Pin 2)
FAULT is an open-drain output indicating fault status. When
a fault condition occurs, this pin is pulled to LOW.
IREF (Pin 9)
STATUS (Pin 3)
STATUS is an open-drain output indicating charging and
inhibit states. During any charge mode, this pin is pulled to
LOW.
TIME (Pin 4)
Connect a timing capacitor CTIME between this pin and
GND. The internal oscillator, as shown in the Block Diagram,
charges and discharges the timing capacitor between 0.5V
and 1.5V with 10A current. The oscillation period can be
found as:

T OSC = 0.2  10  C TIME
22
C TIME
 T OSC = 14  -----------------1nF
IREF is the programming input for the constant charge
current. Connect a resistor RIREF (see the Typical
Application) to this pin. The voltage of this pin is regulated to
a 0.8V reference voltage. The charging current during the
constant current mode charge is 100,000 times of the
current in the RIREF resistor. The charging current in the
constant current mode can be found as:
V REF

I REF = 100000  ----------------- = ----------------- 10  A 
R IREF R IREF
where VREF is the 0.8V reference voltage.
 sec onds 
A 22-stage binary counter increments each oscillation period
to set up the TIMEOUT interval. The TIMEOUT interval can
be calculated as:
TIMEOUT = 2
V2P8 is a 2.8V reference voltage output. V2P8 pin outputs a
2.8V voltage when the input voltage rises above the POR
threshold and outputs zero voltage otherwise. This pin can
be used as an adapter presence signal. A 0.1F Ceramic
capacitor is recommended for decoupling purposes. This pin
can be used to bias other circuits with a maximum current of
2mA.
 minutes 
When the fast charge takes longer than the TIMEOUT
interval, or the Trickle charge time exceeds 1/8 of the
TIMEOUT interval, the charger issues a TIMEOUT fault
status and stops charging.
The oscillator also provides a time reference for the charger.
GND (Pin 5)
GND is the connection to system ground.
TOEN (Pin 6)
TOEN is the TIMEOUT enable input pin. Pulling this pin to
LOW disables the TIMEOUT charge-time limit for the fast
charge modes. Leave this pin floating to enable the
TIMEOUT limit. An internal 10Apull-up circuit pulls this pin
up to a 2.8V internal reference. The trickle mode always has
the 1/8 TIMEOUT limited charge time regardless of this
input. When a TIMEOUT fault is issued, the charger is
latched. The only way to enable the charger again is to cycle
the input power, or to toggle the EN pin.
IMIN (Pin 10)
IMIN is a programmable input for the end-of-charge current.
The pin voltage is also regulated at 0.8V. The end-of-charge
current can be found as:
V REF

I MIN = 10000  ---------------- = ---------------- 10  A 
R IMIN R IMIN
TEMP (Pin 11)
TEMP is an Input for an external NTC thermistor. As shown
in the Block Diagram, two comparators forms a window
comparator with its low and high thresholds set by VTMIN
and VTMAX respectively. When the voltage on the TEMP pin
is outside the window, the charger stops. When the TEMP
pin voltage falls back into the window, the charger starts a
new charge cycle. The VTMIN and VTMAX voltage is
determined by the internal resistor divider, as shown in the
block diagram. See “Battery Pack Temperature Monitoring”
for more information.
The TEMP pin is also used for battery removal detection. It
is assumed that the thermistor is co-packed with the battery.
When the charger sees a TEMP pin voltage that is 2.1V or
higher, it assumes that the battery is removed. When a
battery is removed, a FAULT signal is indicated and charging
is halted. When a battery is inserted again, a new charge
cycle starts.
EN (Pin 7)
VBAT (Pin 12, 13, 14)
EN is the CMOS logic input. Leave this pin floating to enable
the charger. This pin is pulled up to the internal 2.8V
reference via a 10A current source.
VBAT is the connection to a battery. Typically a 10F
Tantalum capacitor is needed for stability when no battery is
attached to this pin. When a battery is connected, however,
no capacitor is required for stability. A 0.1F ceramic
capacitor is recommended for decoupling.

ISL6291
The charger starts a new charge cycle when a wall adapter
is plugged in, a new battery is inserted, a battery voltage
drops below the re-charge threshold, a temperature fault
ends, or the EN pin is toggled from LOW to HIGH.
Description
Initialization
The ISL6291 initializes as the input voltage rises above the
power-on-reset (POR) threshold. Once the input voltage
reaches the POR level, the V2P8 pin outputs a 2.8V voltage.
This output voltage can be used as an adapter presence
indication and to bias the thermistor circuit. The POR takes
about 200s. During the POR, the STATUS pin outputs a
logic HIGH signal, and the FAULT pin outputs a logic LOW
signal.
Trickle Charge Mode
A charge cycle always starts with the trickle charge mode.
The trickle charge mode is to pre-condition the battery and
prepare it for the fast charge (constant current or constant
voltage charge). It is not recommended to fast charge a
Li-ion battery when the battery is deeply discharged,
indicated by a low battery voltage. When the ISL6291 sees a
battery voltage lower than the VMIN given in the Electrical
Specifications, it forces 1/10 of the current in the constant
current mode into the battery. The charger stays in the trickle
mode until the battery voltage is above VMIN for 15
consecutive oscillation cycles (TOSC). The 15-cycle delay is
to avoid entering the constant current mode accidentally,
caused by any transient voltage spike on the battery pack
terminals. The charge time for the trickle mode is limited to
1/8 of the TIMEOUT interval (see TIME pin description and
Figure 1). If the trickle charge time takes longer than 1/8 of
the TIMEOUT interval, a TIMEOUT fault is issued and the
charger is latched. The minimum trickle charge time is 15
TOSC, and the maximum time is 1/8 TIMEOUT. During the
trickle mode, the STATUS pin is set to logic LOW, and the
FAULT pin is set to logic HIGH.
Operation States
Immediately after the POR, the charger enters a charge
state. A charge state always cycles through a trickle mode, a
constant-current mode, and a constant voltage mode, as
shown in Figure 1. If the battery completes a charge cycle
without a fault, the operation moves to the inhibit state,
waiting for the battery to be discharged to start another
charge cycle. Two types of fault may occur during a charge
cycle, namely, a TIMEOUT fault or a temperature fault (refer
to Functional Pin Description on TIME, TOEN, and TEMP
pins). If a fault occurs during the charge modes, the
operation enters the fault state. The charger is in a standby
state when the adapter is removed, or the EN pin of the IC is
pulled to LOW. In the standby state, the charger IC draws
less than 1A current from the battery. The two open-drain
pins, STATUS and FAULT, indicate the operation states of
the charger (see Table 1).
Constant Current Charge Mode
The battery is charged with a constant current programmed
by the IREF pin resistor (see IREF pin description) during
the constant current mode. The constant current is trimmed
to 10% accuracy. The battery voltage rises towards the
charge termination voltage VCH in this mode. The constant
current mode ends when the battery voltage reaches VCH.
The internal clock counter limits the maximum time for the
constant current mode to the TIMEOUT interval. The counter
is reset at the beginning of the this charge mode. If the

charge time exceeds the TIMEOUT interval, a fault is issued
and the charger is latched. The charger then enters the Fault
state.
The TIMEOUT limit is disabled when the TOEN pin is pulled
to LOW (see TOEN pin description for more information).
During the constant current charge mode, the STATUS pin
remains LOW and the FAULT pin remains HIGH.
Internal Current Sensing
A 100,000:1 current mirror is employed to sense the current
in the pass element, as shown in the Block Diagram. The
current mirror is trimmed to 10% accuracy. The second
mirrored output, represented by ISEN2 in the block diagram,
is used to compare with the IMIN pin current to determine
the end-of-charge condition.
Constant Voltage Charge Mode
The ISL6291 regulates the battery terminal voltage at VCH in
the constant voltage mode. As the battery continues being
charged, the charge current starts to decrease, as shown in
Figure 1. When the charge current drops to the minimum
value IMIN, programmed by the IMIN pin, the charge cycle
completes. The total charge time for the constant current
mode and the constant voltage mode must not exceed the
TIMEOUT interval, unless the TOEN pin is pulled LOW;
otherwise, the charger also stops charging and indicates a
FAULT status. During the constant voltage mode, the
STATUS remains LOW and the FAULT remains HIGH.
Two versions of ISL6291 (see Ordering Information) are
available: a 4.1V termination voltage version, and a 4.2V
termination voltage version.

The charger enters the Inhibit State once a normal charge
cycle completes. The ISL6291 then monitors the battery
voltage. Once the battery voltage falls below the VRECHRG
threshold, a new charge cycle starts, as shown in Figure 1.
Both STATUS and FAULT are HIGH in this state.
Fault State
Two types of fault may occur during a charge cycle: the
TIMEOUT fault (refer to the TIME pin and the TOEN pin
description), and the temperature fault (see TEMP pin
description and the Battery Pack Temperature Monitoring
section). When a TIMEOUT fault occurs, the charger is
latched. The latch is released only by recycling the input
power or toggling the EN signal. When a temperature fault
occurs, the charger is reset and a new charge cycle starts
when the temperature fault ends. In case of a fault, the
FAULT pin indicates a logic LOW and the STATUS pin
outputs a logic HIGH.
Standby State
The charger is in the Standby State when the EN pin is held
LOW or the wall adapter is removed. The charger draws less
than 1A of standby current when the adapter is removed.
Timing Diagram
Figure 2 summarizes the operation of the charger and the
key signals after an adapter is attached to the charger input.
No fault occurs in this diagram and the EN pin is assumed
not connected to logic LOW.

Charge Current Control
The charging current in the pass element is controlled by the
current amplifier CA, as shown in the Block Diagram. The
CA, the pass element, and the 100,000:1 current mirror form
a control loop. During a trickle charge mode or a constant
current charge mode, the control reference to the loop is the
reference current IR. The voltage amplifier VA does not
affect the loop operation because the battery voltage is lower
than the charge termination voltage VCH, so that the voltage
amplifier output is blocked by the diode connecting to the
current reference. If the charge current in the PMOS pass
element is too high, its mirrored output is higher than the
reference IR. The non-inverting input of the current amplifier
has a higher voltage than the inverting input so that the
current amplifier output increases, reducing the gate-tosource voltage of the PMOS pass element. The current in
the pass element thereby reduces. If the charge current is
too low, the current amplifier output reduces to force the
current to increase.
During the Trickle mode charge, the current reference
typically equals 1/10 of the current in the IREF pin. During
the constant current mode, the reference current equals the
current in the IREF pin.
If the temperature inside the IC rises above a typical value of
100°C, the current source block starts to reduce the reference
current IR at a rate of 0.4A/°C for every degree of
temperature rise.
FN9102.2

ISL6291
Charge Termination Voltage Regulation
As the battery voltage rises to the 4.1V or 4.2V termination
voltage, the voltage amplifier starts to output positive voltage
and to source current. This current partially cancels the
current of the reference current IR to reduce the charge
current. If the battery voltage increases further due to the
charging, the voltage amplifier increases its output current to
reduce the equivalent reference current. As a result, after the
battery voltage reaches the termination voltage, the charge
current starts to decrease.
As the charging current drops to the end-of-charge current
level programmed by the IMIN pin, the charge stops. The
large voltage control loop gain guarantees that the battery
voltage is regulated within the 1% error specification.
Select an NTC thermistor whose resistance value satisfies
the above equation. A curve-1 NTC thermistor from Vishay is
a good candidate for this application. If a thermistor does not
meet this requirement, using a resistor in parallel or series
with the thermistor may solve the problem. Once the
thermistor is selected, the pull-up resistor should be chosen
as:

Internal Thermal Management
The temperature rise of a linear charger is always a concern
in real applications. The temperature rise is caused by the
power dissipation of the charger. Maximum power
dissipation occurs when the battery is charged in the
constant current mode. The advanced thermal management
function of the ISL6291 frees users from the temperature
rise concern. The ISL6291 adopts a current-foldback
technique against the temperature rise. Under normal
operation, the ISL6291 charges the battery with the
programmed IREF. If the internal thermal monitoring circuit
detects 100°C temperature in the IC, it starts to reduce the
charge current to prevent further temperature rise. The gain
for the current-foldback is 40mA/°C (or 0.4A°C for the
reference current IR) after the internal temperature reaches
100°C; therefore, for a charger with the constant charge
current set at 1A, the charge current is reduced to zero when
the internal temperature rises to 125°C. The actual internal
temperature should settle between 100°C to 125°C,
depending on the operating conditions, if the temperature
does rise above 100°C.
Battery Pack Temperature Monitoring
The ISL6291 uses two comparators to form a window
comparator. Figure 3 shows the internal circuit. When the
TEMP pin voltage is “out of the window,” as determined by
the VTMIN and VTMAX, the charging is stopped. The two
MOSFETs, Q1 and Q2, produce hysteresis for both upper
and lower threshold. Figure 4 shows all the critical voltage
levels and the output of the two comparators versus the
TEMP pin voltage.
The external thermistor circuit is shown in Figure 3. The NTC
thermistor RT requires a pull-up resistor RU to form a
resistive divider. RU should be pulled up to the 2.8V V2P8
pin. Assume the resistance of the NTC thermistor is RTH at
the high temperature limit, and is RTL at the low limit. It can
be shown that:

FIGURE 4. CRITICAL VOLTAGE LEVELS FOR TEMP PIN
If a parallel or series resistor is used, the RTL value is the
combined value at the low temperature limit. The
temperature hysteresis can be calculated once the thermistor
is selected. The typical hysteresis is about 3°C to 5°C.

ISL6291
Battery Removal Detection
The ISL6291 assumes that the thermistor is co-packed with
the battery and is removed together with the battery. When
the ISL6291 sees a voltage of 2.1V or higher on the TEMP
pin, it assumes that the battery is removed. When the battery
is removed, the charger stops and indicates a fault signal. A
new charge cycle starts when a battery is inserted again.
Output Capacitor COUT
COUT is typically a 10F Tantalum capacitor if the charger is
required to operate with no battery attached. For embedded
battery applications, there is no requirement for a capacitor if
the battery is placed close enough to the charger output. It is
recommended, however, that the charger have at least a
0.1uF ceramic capacitor at the charger output for decoupling
purposes.
Input Capacitor CIN
CIN is typically a 10F Tantalum capacitor or 1F Ceramic
capacitor.
Stability
The charger is stable with a wide range of external
components, including the typical external components.
