Description The MCP73837 and MCP73838 devices are fully integrated linear Li-Ion / Li-Polymer battery chargers with autonomous power source selection. Along with its small physical size, the low number of external components required makes the MCP73837/8 ideally suitable for portable applications. The MCP73837/8 automatically selects the USB-Port or AC-Adapter as the power source for the system. For the USB-Port powered systems, the MCP73837/8 specifically adheres to the current limits governed by the USB specification. The host microcontroller can select from two preset maximum charge current rates of 100 mA (low power USB-port) or 500 mA (high power USB-port). With an AC-Adapter providing power to the system, an external resistor sets the magnitude of the system or charge current up to a maximum of 1A. The MCP73837/8 employs a constant current / constant voltage charge algorithm with selectable preconditioning and charge termination. The constant voltage regulation is fixed with four available options: 4.20V, 4.35V, 4.40V, or 4.50V, to accommodated the new emerging battery charging requirements. The MCP73837/8 limits the charge current based on die temperature during high power or high ambient conditions. This thermal regulation optimizes the charge cycle time while maintaining the device reliability. The MCP73837/8 are fully specified over the ambient temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The MCP73837/8 devices are available in a 10-Lead, 3 mm x 3 mm, DFN package or in a 10-Lead MSOP package.

The EP must be connected to the same potential as the VSS pin on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). AC-Adapter Supply Input (VAC) A supply voltage of VREG + 0.3V to 6V from ac-dc walladapter is recommended. When both the AC-Adapter and the USB-Port supply voltages are present at same time, the AC-Adapter dominates the regulated charge current with the maximum value of 1A. Bypass to VSS with a minimum of 4.7 µF is recommended. 3.2 USB-Port Supply Input (VUSB) A supply voltage of VREG + 0.3V to 6V from USB-Port is recommended.

Bypass to VSS with a minimum of 1 µF to ensure loop stability when the battery is disconnected. 3.7 AC-Adapter Current Regulation Set (PROG1) The AC-Adapter constant charge current is set by placing a resistor from PROG1 to VSS. PROG1 is the set point of precondition and termination when the ACAdapter is present. PROG1 also functions as device charge control enable. The MCP73837/8 is shut down when an impedance value greater than 70 kΩ is applied to PROG1. When PROG1 is floating, the MCP73837/8 enters stand-by mode. DS22071A-page 13 MCP73837/8 3.8 USB-Port Current Regulation Set (PROG2) The MCP73837/8 USB-Port current regulation set input (PROG2) is a digital input selection. A logic Low selects a 1 unit load charge current; a logic High selects a 5 unit loads charge current. PROG2 also functions as the set point of precondition and termination when USB-Port is present. When PROG2 is floating, the MCP73837/8 enters in stand-by mode. 3.9 Power Good (PG) Power Good (PG) is available only on MCP73837. PG is an open-drain logic output for connection to a LED for input power supply indication. Alternatively, a pullup resistor can be applied for interfacing to a host microcontroller.

Note: 3.11 The built-in safety timer is available for both MCP73837 and MCP73838 in the following options: Disable, 4 HR, 6 HR, and 8 HR. Battery Temperature Monitor (THERM) MCP73837/8 continuously monitors the battery temperature during a charge cycle by measuring the voltage between the THERM and VSS pins. An internal 50 µA current source provides the bias for the most common 10 kΩ negative-temperature coefficient thermistors (NTC). © 2007 Microchip Technology Inc.

DS22071A-page 15 MCP73837/8 4.1 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) An internal undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuit monitors the input voltage and keeps the charger in shutdown mode until the input supply rises above the UVLO threshold. The UVLO circuitry has a built-in hysteresis of 75 mV for the USB-Port and 55 mV for the AC-Adapter. In the event a battery is present when the input power is applied, the input supply must rise 100 mV above the battery voltage before MCP73837/8 becomes operational. The UVLO circuit places the device in shutdown mode if the input supply falls to within +100 mV of the battery voltage. The UVLO circuit is always active. At any time the input supply is below the UVLO threshold or within +100 mV of the voltage at the VBAT pin, the MCP73837/8 is placed in a shutdown mode. During any UVLO condition, the battery reverse discharge current shall be less than 2 µA. 4.2 4.3 When the voltage at the VBAT pin rises above the preconditioning threshold, the MCP73837/8 enters the constant current or fast charge mode. 4.5 If the input power is switched during a charge cycle, the power path switch-over shall be a break-before-make connection. As a result, the charge current can momentarily go to zero. The charge cycle timer shall remain continuous. Charge Qualification For AC-Adapter, the charge current is established using a single resistor from PROG to VSS. The program resistor and the charge current are calculated using the following equation: EQUATION 4-1: 1000VI REG = ---------------R PROG where RPROG is in kilo-ohms (kΩ) and IREG is in milliampers (mA). When charging from a USB-Port, the host microcontroller has the option of selecting either a one unit load or a five unit loads charge rate based on the PROG2 input. A logic LOW selects a one unit load charge rate, a HIGH selects a five unit loads charge rate, and high impedance input suspends or disables charging. Note: For a charge cycle to begin, all UVLO conditions must be met and a battery or output load must be present. A charge current programming resistor must be connected from PROG1 to VSS. If the PROG1 or PROG2 pin are open or floating, the MCP73837/8 is disabled and the battery reverse discharge current is less than 2 µA. In this manner, the PROG1 pin acts as a charge enable and can be used as a manual shutdown. 4.4 Preconditioning If the voltage at the VBAT pin is less than the preconditioning threshold, the MCP73837/8 enters a preconditioning mode. The preconditioning threshold is factory set. Refer to Section 1.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for preconditioning threshold options. DS22071A-page 16 Constant Current MODE - Fast Charge During the constant current mode, the programmed (AC-Adapter) or selected (USB-Port) charge current is supplied to the battery or load. AUTONOMOUS POWER SOURCE SELECTION The MCP73837/8 devices are designed to select the USB-port or the AC-Adapter as the power source automatically. If the AC-Adapter input is not present, the USB-Port is selected. If both inputs are available, the AC-Adapter has first priority. Note: In this mode, the MCP73837/8 supplies a percentage of the charge current (established with the value of the resistor connected to the PROG pin) to the battery. The percentage or ratio of the current is factory set. Refer to Section 1.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for preconditioning current options. USB Specification Rev. 2.0 defines the maximum absolute current for one unit load is 100 mA. This value is not an average over time and shall not be exceed. Constant current mode is maintained until the voltage at the VBAT pin reaches the regulation voltage, VREG., when constant current mode is invoked, the internal timer is reset. 4.5.1 TIMER EXPIRED DURING CONSTANT CURRENT - FAST CHARGE MODE If the internal timer expires before the recharge voltage threshold is reached, a timer fault is indicated and the charge cycle terminates. The MCP73837/8 remains in this condition until the battery is removed, the input battery is removed or the PROG1/2 pin is opened. If the battery is removed or the PROG1/2 pin is opened, the MCP73837/8 enters the Stand-by mode where it remains until a battery is reinserted or the PROG1/2 pin © 2007 Microchip Technology Inc. MCP73837/8 is reconnected. If the input power is removed, the MCP73837/8 is in Shutdown. When the input power is reapplied, a normal start-up sequence ensues. 4.6 Constant Voltage Mode When the voltage at the VBAT pin reaches the regulation voltage, VREG, constant voltage regulation begins. The regulation voltage is factory set to 4.20V, 4.35V, 4.40V, or 4.5V with a tolerance of ± 0.5%. 4.9 Thermal Regulation The MCP73837/8 limits the charge current based on the die temperature. The thermal regulation optimizes the charge cycle time while maintaining device reliability. Figure 4-2 depicts the thermal regulation for the MCP73837/8. Refer to Section 1.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for thermal package resistances and Section 6.1.1.2 “Thermal Considerations” for calculating power dissipation. . 4.7 Charge Termination 1200 RPROG = 1 kΩ 1100 The charge cycle is terminated when, during constant voltage mode, the average charge current diminishes below a percentage of the programmed charge current (established with the value of the resistor connected to the PROG pin) or the internal timer has expired. A 1 ms filter time on the termination comparator ensures that transient load conditions do not result in premature charge cycle termination. The percentage or ratio of the current is factory set. The timer period is factory set and can be disabled. Refer to Section 1.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for charge termination current ratio and timer period options. FIGURE 4-2: The charge current is latched off and the MCP73837/8 enters a charge complete mode. 4.10 4.8 Automatic Recharge The MCP73837/8 continuously monitors the voltage at the VBAT pin in the charge complete mode. If the voltage drops below the recharge threshold, another charge cycle begins and current is once again supplied to the battery or load. The recharge threshold is factory set. Refer to Section 1.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for recharge threshold options.

Thermal Shutdown The MCP73837/8 suspends charge if the die temperature exceeds 150°C. Charging will resume when the die temperature has cooled by approximately 10°C. The thermal shutdown is a secondary safety feature in the event that there is a failure within the thermal regulation circuitry. Charge termination and automatic recharge features avoid constant charging Li-Ion batteries to prolong the life of Li-Ion batteries while keeping their capacity at healthy level. © 2007 Microchip Technology Inc. DS22071A-page 17 MCP73837/8 5.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION 5.1 Analog Circuitry 5.1.1 BATTERY MANAGEMENT INPUT SUPPLY (VDD) The VDD input is the input supply to the MCP73837/8. The MCP73837/8 can be supplied by either ACAdapter (VAC) or USB-Port (VUSB) with autonomous source selection. The MCP73837/8 automatically enters a Power-down mode if the voltage on the VDD input falls to within +100 mV of the battery voltage or below the UVLO voltage (VSTOP). This feature prevents draining the battery pack when both the VAC and VUSB supplies are not present. 5.1.2 AC-ADAPTER CURRENT REGULATION SET (PROG1) For the MCP73837/8, the charge current regulation can be scaled by placing a programming resistor (RPROG) from the PROG input to VSS. The program resistor and the charge current are calculated using the following equation: EQUATION 5-1: 1000VI REG = ---------------R PROG Where: RPROG = kilo-ohms (kΩ) IREG = milli-ampere (mA) at the THERM pin to factory set thresholds of 1.20V and 0.25V, typically. Once a voltage outside the thresholds is detected during a charge cycle, the MCP73837/8 immediately suspends the charge cycle. The MCP73837/8 suspends charge by turning off the pass transistor and holding the timer value. The charge cycle resumes when the voltage at the THERM pin returns to the normal range. If temperature monitoring is not required, place a standard 10 kΩ resistor from THERM to VSS. 5.1.5 The MCP73837/8 can be placed in a system test mode. In this mode, the MCP73837/8 operates as a low dropout linear regulator (LDO). The output voltage is regulated to the factory set voltage regulation option. The available output current is limited to the programmed fast charge current. For stability, the VBAT output must be bypassed to VSS with a minimum capacitance of 1 µF for output currents up to 250 mA. A minimum capacitance of 4.7 µF is required for output currents above 250 mA. The system test mode is entered by driving the THERM input greater than (VDD - 100 mV) with no battery connected to the output. In this mode, the MCP73837/ 8 can be used to power the system without a battery being present. Note 1: ITHERM is disabled during shutdown, stand-by, and system test modes. 2: A pull-down current source on the THERM input is active only in stand-by and system test modes. The preconditioning current and the charge termination current are ratiometric to the fast charge current based on the selected device options. 5.1.3 5.1.4 3: During system test mode, the PROG input sets the available output current limit. BATTERY CHARGE CONTROL OUTPUT (VBAT) The battery charge control output is the drain terminal of an internal P-channel MOSFET. The MCP73837/8 provides constant current and voltage regulation to the battery pack by controlling this MOSFET in the linear region. The battery charge control output should be connected to the positive terminal of the battery pack. TEMPERATURE QUALIFICATION (THERM) The MCP73837/8 continuously monitors battery temperature during a charge cycle by measuring the voltage between the THERM and the VSS pins. An internal 50 µA current source provides the bias for the most common 10 kΩ negative-temperature coefficient (NTC) or positive-temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistors. The current source is controlled, avoiding measurement sensitivity to fluctuations in the supply voltage (VDD). The MCP73837/8 compares the voltage DS22071A-page 18 SYSTEM TEST (LDO) MODE 4: System test mode shall be exited by releasing the THERM input or cycling input power. 5.2 5.2.1 Digital Circuitry STATUS INDICATORS AND POWER GOOD (PG) OPTION The charge status outputs have two different states: Low (L), and High Impedance (Hi-Z). The charge status outputs can be used to illuminate LEDs. Optionally, the charge status outputs can be used as an interface to a host microcontroller. Table 5-1 summarizes the state of the status outputs during a charge cycle. © 2007 Microchip Technology Inc. MCP73837/8 5.2.2 USB-PORT CURRENT REGULATION SELECT (PROG2) For the MCP73837/8, driving the PROG2 input to a logic Low selects the low charge current setting (maximum 100 mA). Driving the PROG2 input to a logic High selects the high charge current setting (maximum 500 mA). TABLE 5-1: STATUS OUTPUTS CHARGE CYCLE STATE STAT1 STAT2 PG Shutdown Hi-Z Hi-Z Hi-Z Standby Hi-Z Hi-Z L Preconditioning L Hi-Z L Constant Current L Hi-Z L Constant Voltage L Hi-Z L Charge Complete - Standby Hi-Z L L Temperature Fault Hi-Z Hi-Z L Timer Fault Hi-Z Hi-Z L L L L System Test Mode 5.2.3 5.2.4 TIMER ENABLE (TE) OPTION The timer enable (TE) input option is used to enable or disable the internal timer. A low signal on this pin enables the internal timer and a high signal disables the internal timer. The TE input can be used to disable the timer when the charger is supplying current to charge the battery and power the system load. The TE input is compatible with 1.8V logic. The TE option is available only on MCP73838. 5.2.5 DEVICE DISABLE (PROG1/2) The current regulation set input pin (PROG1/2) can be used to terminate a charge at any time during the charge cycle, as well as to initiate a charge cycle or to initiate a recharge cycle. Placing a programming resistor from the PROG1/2 input to VSS enables the device. Allowing the PROG1/2 input to float or applying a logic-high input signal, disables the device and terminates a charge cycle. When disabled, the device’s supply current is reduced to 75 µA, typically. POWER GOOD (PG) OPTION The power good (PG) option is a pseudo open-drain output. The PG output can sink current, but not source current. However, there is a diode path back to the input, and as such, the output should be pulled up only to the input. The PG output is low whenever the input to the MCP73837 is above the UVLO threshold and greater than the battery voltage. If the supply voltage is above the UVLO, but below VREG(typical)+0.3V, the MCP73837 will pulse the PG output as the device determines if a battery is present. The PG option is available only on MCP73837. © 2007 Microchip Technology Inc. DS22071A-page 19 MCP73837/8 6.0 APPLICATIONS Lithium-Polymer cells Constant-current followed by Constant-voltage.

DS22071A-page 20 Application Circuit Design COMPONENT SELECTION Selection of the external components in Figure 6-1 is crucial to the integrity and reliability of the charging system. The following discussion is intended as a guide for the component selection process. 4.0 1.0 COUT Due to the low efficiency of linear charging, the most important factors are thermal design and cost, which are a direct function of the input voltage, output current, and thermal impedance between the battery charger and the ambient cooling air. The worst-case situation is when the device has transitioned from the Preconditioning mode to the Constant Current mode. In this situation, the battery charger has to dissipate the maximum power. A trade-off must be made between the charge current, cost, and thermal requirements of the charger. 6.1.1 FIGURE 6-2: Typical Charge Profile (1200 mAh Li-Ion Battery). 1.5 Thermsitor 9 MCP73837 Typical Stand-Alone Application Circuit. 5.0 1.0 10 6.1.1.1 Charge Current The preferred fast charge current for Lithium-Ion cells should always follow references and guidance from battery manufacturers. For example, programming 700 mA fast charge current for a 1000 mAh Li-Ion battery pack if its preferred fast charge rate is 0.7C. This will result the shortest charge cycle time without degradation a battery's life and performance. 6.1.1.2 Thermal Considerations The worst-case power dissipation in the battery charger occurs when the input voltage is at the maximum and the device has transitioned from the Preconditioning mode to the Constant-current mode. In this case, the power dissipation is: © 2007 Microchip Technology Inc. MCP73837/8 EQUATION 6-1: PowerDissipation = ( V DDMAX –V PTHMIN )×I REGMAX Where: VDDMAX = the maximum input voltage IREGMAX = the maximum fast charge current VPTHMIN = the minimum transition threshold voltage For example, power dissipation with a 5V, ±10% input voltage source and 500 mA, ±10% fast charge current is: EXAMPLE 6-1: Placing a programming resistor from the PROG1 input to VSS or driving PROG2 to logic High or Low enables the device. Allowing either the PROG1 or PROG2 input float disables the device and terminates a charge cycle. When disabled, the device’s supply current is reduced to 75 µA, typically. 6.1.1.6 Temperature Monitoring The charge temperature window can be set by placing fixed value resistors in series-parallel with a thermistor. The resistance values of RT1 and RT2 can be calculated with the following equations in order to set the temperature window of interest. For NTC thermistors: EQUATION 6-2: PowerDissipation = ( 5.5V – 2.7V ) × 550 mA = 1.54W This power dissipation with the battery charger in the MSOP-10 package will cause thermal regulation to be entered as depicted in Figure 6-3. Alternatively, the 3 mm x 3 mm DFN package could be utilized to reduce the charge cycle times. 6.1.1.3 R T2 × R COLD 24k Ω = R T1 + -------------------------------R T2 + R COLD R T2 × R HOT 5k Ω = R T1 + ---------------------------R T2 + R HOT Where: External Capacitors The MCP73837/8 is stable with or without a battery load. In order to maintain good AC stability in the Constant Voltage mode, a minimum capacitance of 1 µF is recommended to bypass the VBAT pin to VSS. This capacitance provides compensation when there is no battery load. In addition, the battery and interconnections appear inductive at high frequencies. These elements are in the control feedback loop during Constant Voltage mode. Therefore, the bypass capacitance may be necessary to compensate for the inductive nature of the battery pack. RT1 = the fixed series resistance RT2 = the fixed parallel resistance the thermistor resistance at the lower temperature of interest RCOLD RHOT = the thermistor resistance at the upper temperature of interest For example, by utilizing a 10 kΩ at 25°C NTC thermistor with a sensitivity index, β, of 3892, the charge temperature range can be set to 0°C - 50°C by placing a 1.54 kΩ resistor in series (RT1), and a 69.8 kΩ resistor in parallel (RT2) with the thermistor. Virtually any good quality output filter capacitor can be used, independent of the capacitor’s minimum Effective Series Resistance (ESR) value. The actual value of the capacitor (and its associated ESR) depends on the output load current. A 1 µF ceramic, tantalum, or aluminum electrolytic capacitor at the output is usually sufficient to ensure stability for output currents up to 500 mA. 6.1.1.7 6.1.1.4 For optimum voltage regulation, place the battery pack as close as possible to the device’s VBAT and VSS pins, recommended to minimize voltage drops along the high current-carrying PCB traces. Reverse-Blocking Protection The MCP73837/8 provides protection from a faulted or shorted input. Without the protection, a faulted or shorted input would discharge the battery pack through the body diode of the internal pass transistor. 6.1.1.5 Charge Inhibit The current regulation set input pin (PROG1/2) can be used to terminate a charge at any time during the charge cycle, as well as to initiate a charge cycle or initiate a recharge cycle. © 2007 Microchip Technology Inc. Charge Status Interface A status output provides information on the state of charge. The output can be used to illuminate external LEDs or interface to a host microcontroller. Refer to Figure 5-1 for a summary of the state of the status output during a charge cycle. 6.2 PCB Layout Issues If the PCB layout is used as a heatsink, adding many vias in the heatsink pad can help conduct more heat to the backplane of the PCB, thus reducing the maximum junction temperature.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices: • Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet. • Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the intended manner and under normal conditions. • There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property. • Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code. • Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.” Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our products.
