All Rights Reserved. 9 MP26123 – 2A, 24V INPUT, 600kHz 2-3 CELL SWITCHING LI-ION BATTERY CHARGER OPERATION The MP26123 is a peak-current–mode controlled switching charger for use with Li-ion batteries. At the beginning of a cycle, M1 is off, and the COMP voltage is higher than the output of current sense amplifer, A1. The PWM comparator’s output is low, and the rising edge of the 600kHz CLK signal sets the RS flip-flop, which turns on M1, thus connecting the SW pin and the inductor to the input supply. As the inductor current increases, the output of A1 increases. While the sum of A1’s output and the slope compensation remains below the COMP voltage, the falled edge of the CLK resets the RS flip-flop. When this signal exceeds the COMP voltage, the RS flip-flop resets and turns M1 off. The external switching diode D2 then conducts the inductor current. The MP26123 uses COMP to select the smaller value of GMI and GMV to implement either current loop control or voltage loop control. Current loop control occurs when the battery voltage is low, which results in the saturation of the GMV output. GMI compares the charge current (as a voltage sensed through RS1) against the reference voltage to regulate the charge current to a constant value. When the battery voltage charges up to the reference voltage, the output of GMV goes low and initiates voltage loop control to control the duty cycle to regulate the output voltage. The MP26123 has an internal linear regulator— VREF33—to power internal circuitry. It can also power external circuitry as long as the load does not exceed the maximum current (30mA). Connect a 1μF bypass capacitor from VREF33 to GND to ensure stability. If the charge stays in the “trickle-charging mode” until “time out” condition is triggered, charging terminates and will not resume until the input power or EN signal refreshes. Otherwise, GMI regulates the charge current to the level set by RS1. The charger is operating at “constant current charging mode.” The duty cycle of the switcher is determined by the COMPI voltage that is regulated by the amplifier GMI. When the battery voltage reaches constantvoltage–mode threshold, GMV regulates the COMP pin and the duty cycle for constant voltage mode. When the charge current drops to the battery-full threshold, IBF (typical 10% CC), the battery is defined as fully charged, the charger stops charging, and CHGOK goes high to indicate the charge-full condition. If the total charge time exceeds the timer period, the charging terminates at once and will resume when either the input power or EN signal can restart the charger. Figure 2 shows the typical charge profile of MP26123. Figure 2—Li-Ion Battery Charge Profile Charge Cycle (Mode change: Trickle CC CV) At the start of a charging cycle, the MP26123 monitors VBATT. If VBATT is lower than the tricklecharge threshold, VTC (typically 3.0V/cell), the charging cycle will start in “trickle-charge mode” (10% of the RS1 programmed constant-charge current, ICC) until the battery voltage reaches VTC.

All Rights Reserved. 10 MP26123 – 2A, 24V INPUT, 600kHz 2-3 CELL SWITCHING LI-ION BATTERY CHARGER Automatic Recharge After the battery has completely recharged, the charger disables all blocks except the battery voltage monitor to limit leakage current. If the battery voltage falls below 4.0V/Cell, the chip will begin recharging using soft-start. The timer will then reset to avoid timer-related charging disruptions. Charger Status Indication MP26123 has two open-drain status outputs: ACOK and CHGOK . The ACOK pin goes low when the IC supply voltage VCC exceeds the under-voltage lockout threshold and the regulated voltage VIN is 300mV higher than VBATT to make sure the regulator can operate normally. CHGOK indicates charge status. Table 1 describes ACOK and CHGOK outputs under different charge conditions. Table 1―Charging Status Indication ACOK CHGOK low low low high high high Charger Status In charging End of charge, NTC fault, timer out, thermal shutdown, EN disable VIN –VBATT<0.3V. VCC<UVLO, Timer Operation MP26123 uses the internal timer to limit the charge period during trickle charge and total charge cycle. Once the charge time exceeds the time limit the MP26123 terminates charging. A good battery should fully recharge within the allotted time period; otherwise the battery has a fault. An external capacitor at the TMR pin programs the time period. auto-recharge (The event that VBATT falls through 4V/cell) can restart the charge cycle. Negative Thermal Coefficient (NTC) Thermistor The MP26123 has a built-in NTC-resistance window comparator that allows the MP26123 to sense the battery temperature through the thermistor included in the battery pack. Connect a resistor with an appropriate value from VREF33 to the NTC pin, and connect the thermistor from the NTC pin to GND. A resistor divider determines the voltage on the NTC pin as a function of the battery temperature. Charging halts when the NTC voltage falls below the lower NTC window threshold. Charging resumes when the voltage is within the NTC window range. Power Path Management MP26123 is a stand-alone switching charger. Typically, the regulated input voltage VIN receives power from the adapter input, VIN, through a diode that blocks the battery voltage to VCC. For power path application, however, VIN powers the system and charges the battery simultaneously so the user can start-up a device with a drained battery when it is connected to an adapter. Replace the diode from the stand-alone switching charger circuit with a MOSFET to improve system efficiency and reduce voltage drop of the block device. An additional MOSFET between VIN and the battery allows the battery to charge even in the absence of an adapter or connection to an invalid adapter. Figure 3 shows a typical application circuit with power-path management. When the adapter input is invalid or absent, the block diode is replaced by a MOSFET controlled by ACOK signal. The trickle mode charge time is: TTRICKLE _ TMR 30 min s C TMR 0.1F The total charge time is: TTOTAL _ TMR 3hours C TMR 0.1F When time-out occurs, charger is suspended.

APPLICATION INFORMATION Setting the Charge Current The charge current of MP26123 is set by the sense resistor RS1 (See Typical Application), and determined with the following equation: ICHG A 200mV RS1mΩ For simplification, select R3=10k and R6 no connect to approximate the specification. (1) VREF33 Selecting the Inductor Use a 1µH to 10µH inductor for most applications. The inductance value can be derived from the following equation. L VOUT (VIN VOUT ) VIN IL fOSC (2) Where ΔIL is the inductor ripple current. Choose ΔIL to be approximately 30% of the maximum charge current, 2A. VOUT is the 2- or 3-cell battery voltage. The maximum inductor peak current is: IL(MAX) ICHG IL 2 (3) Under light load conditions below 100mA, use a larger inductor value to improve efficiency. Select an inductor with a DC resistance of less than 200mΩ to optimize efficiency. NTC Function As Figure 6 shows, the low temperature threshold and high-temperature threshold are preset internally to 73.5%·VREF33 and 29.5%·VREF33 using a resistive divider. For a given NTC thermistor, we can select appropriate R3 and R6 resistors to set the NTC window. For the thermistor (NCP18XH103) noted in above electrical characteristic, At 0°C, RNTC_Cold = 27.445k; At 50°C, RNTC_Hot = 4.1601k. Assuming that the NTC window is between 0°C and 50°C, we can derive the following equations: R6 // RNTC _ Cold R3 R6 // RNTC _ Cold R6 // RNTC _ Hot R3 R6 // RNTC _ Hot VTH _ Low VREF33 VTH _ High VREF33 73.5% (4) 29.5% (5) Low Temp Threshold R3 NTC R6 VTH_Low RNTC High Temp Threshold VTH_High Figure 6— NTC function block Selecting the Input Capacitor The input capacitor reduces the surge current drawn from the input and also the switching noise from the device. Chose an input capacitor with an impedance at the switching frequency less than the input source impedance to prevent highfrequency–switching current. Use ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics with low ESR and small temperature coefficients. A 4.7µF capacitor is sufficient for most applications. Selecting the Output Capacitor The output capacitor limits output voltage ripple and ensures regulation loop stability. The output capacitor impedance should be low at the switching frequency. Use ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics. PC Board Layout Connect the high frequency and high current paths (GND, IN and SW) to the device with short, wide, and direct traces. Place the input capacitor as close as possible to the IN and GND pins. Place the external feedback resistors next to the FB pin. Keep the switching node SW short and away from the feedback network.
