Operation
The RT9535A is a current mode PWM step-down
switching charger controller. The battery DC charge
current is programmed by a resistor R4 at the ISET pin
and the ratio of sense resistor RS2 over RS1 in the
typical application circuit. Amplifier CA converts the
charge current through RS1 to a much lower sampled
current ICHG (ICHG = IBATT x RS1 / RS2) fed into the
ISET pin. Amplifier EA compares the output of CA with
2.5V reference voltage and drives the PWM loop to
force them to be equal. Note that ICHG has both AC and
DC components. High DC accuracy is achieved with
averaging filter R3 and C3 at ISET pin. ICHG is mirrored
to go through R4 and generates a ramp signal that is
fed to the PWM control comparator, forming the current
mode inner loop. An internal LDO generates a 5V to
power high-side MOSFET gate driver. For batteries like
lithium that require both constant current and constant
voltage charging, the 0.5% 2.5V reference and the
voltage amplifier VA reduce the charge current when
battery voltage reaches the normal charge voltage level.
For NiMH and NiCd, VA can be used for over-voltage
protection.

In the typical application circuit, the input capacitor (C2)

converter will operate in continuous conduction mode.
In this case, the RMS current IRMSIN of the input
capacitor C2 can be estimated by the equation :
IRMSIN = IBATT  D-D2
Inductor
The inductor value will be changed for more or less
current ripple. The higher the inductance, the lower the
current ripple will be. As the physical size is kept the
same, typically, higher inductance will result in higher
series resistance and lower saturation current. A good
Where IBATT is the battery charge current and D is the
duty cycle. In worst case, the RMS ripple current will be
equal to one half of output charging current at 50% duty
tradeoff is to choose the inductor so that the current
ripple is approximately 30% to 50% of the full-scale
charge current. The inductor value is calculated as :
cycle. For example, IBATT = 2A, the maximum RMS
current will be 1A. A low-ESR ceramic capacitor such
as X7R or X5R is preferred for the input-decoupling
capacitor and should be placed to the drain of the
high-side MOSFET and source of the low-side
MOSFET as close as possible. The voltage rating of
the capacitor must be higher than the normal input
voltage level. Above 20F capacitance is suggested for
typical of 2A charging current.
L1 =
VBATT   VVIN -VBATT 
VVIN  fOSC  ΔIL
Where IL is the inductor current ripple. For example,
VVIN = 19V, choose the inductor current ripple to be
40% of the full-scale charge current in the typical
application circuit for 2A, 2-cell battery charger, IL =
0.8A, VBATT = 8.4V, calculate L1 to be 12H. So

otherwise internal pull-down current will keep the EN

Charger Protection
Note that the RT9535A will operate even when VBATT is
grounded. If VBATT of typical application circuit charger
gets shorted to ground very quickly from a high battery
voltage, slow loop response may allow charge current
to build up and damage the high-side internal
N-MOSFET. A small diode from the EN pin to VBATT
will shut down switching and protect the charger.

temperature by measuring the voltage between the

TA is the ambient temperature, and JA is the junction to
ambient thermal resistance.
For recommended operating condition specifications,
the maximum junction temperature is 125C. The
junction to ambient thermal resistance, JA, is layout
dependent. For WQFN-16L 4x4 package, the thermal
resistance, JA, is 28.5C/W on a standard JEDEC
51-7 four-layer thermal test board. The maximum
power dissipation at TA = 25C can be calculated by
the following formula :
