SC810 Single Input/Single Mode Single-cell Li-ion Charger POWER MANAGEMENT Features Description The SC810 is a linear single-cell Li-ion battery charger in a 6 lead 2×2mm MLPD Ultra-thin package. The input will survive sustained input voltage up to 30V to protect against hot plug overshoot and faulty charging adapters. Input voltage protection — 30V Single input charger Constant voltage — 4.2V, 1% regulation Charging by current and voltage regulation (CC/CV) Thermal limiting of charge current Programmable fast-charge current Current-limited adapter support — reduces power dissipation in charger IC Instantaneous CC-to-CV transition for faster charging Three termination options — float-charge, automatic re-charge, or forced re-charge to keep the battery topped-off after termination without float-charging Soft-start reduces adapter load transients High operating voltage range permits use of unregulated adapters Complies with CCSA YD/T 1591-2006 Space saving 2×2×0.6 (mm) MLPD package Pb free, Halogen free, and RoHS/WEEE compliant Applications Mobile phones MP3 players GPS handheld receivers Charging begins automatically when a valid input source is applied. Thermal limiting protects the SC810 from excessive power dissipation. It can be programmed to turn off when charging is complete or to continue operating as an LDO regulator while float-charging the battery. The input will charge with an adapter operating in voltage regulation or in current-limit to obtain the lowest possible power dissipation by pulling the input voltage down to the battery voltage. The maximum fast-charge current setting is 1A. Charge current is programmed with a single resistor. Precharge and termination current are fixed at 20% and 10%, respectively, of the programmed fast-charge current. Charge current steps up to the programmed value (soft starts) to reduce load transients on the charging adapter.

It implements a Constant Current (CC), Constant Voltage (CV) charging algorithm with Thermal Limiting (TL). When a valid input supply is first detected, a charge cycle is initiated and the STATB open-drain output goes low. If the battery voltage is less than the pre-charge threshold voltage, the pre-charge current is supplied. Pre-charge current is 20% of the programmed fast-charge current. When the battery voltage exceeds the pre-charge threshold, typically within seconds for a standard battery with a starting cell voltage greater than 2V, the fast-charge CC mode begins. The charge current soft-starts in three steps (20%, 60%, and 100% of programmed fast-charge current) to reduce adapter load transients. CC current is programmed by the IPRGM resistance to ground. The charger begins CV regulation when the battery voltage rises to the fully-charged single-cell Li-ion regulation voltage (VCV ), nominally 4.2V. In CV regulation, the output voltage is regulated, and as the battery charges, the charge current gradually decreases. The STATB output goes high when IBAT drops below the termination threshold current, which is 10% of the IPRGM pin programmed fast-charge current. This is known as charge termination. Optional Float-charging or Monitoring Depending on the state of the ENB input, upon termination, the SC810 either operates indefinitely as a voltage regulator (float-charging) or it turns off its output. If the output is turned off upon termination, the device enters the monitor state. In this state, the output remains off until the BAT pin voltage decreases by the re-charge threshold (VTReQ = 100mV typically). A re-charge cycle then begins automatically and the process repeats. A forced re-charge cycle can also be periodically commanded by the processor to keep the battery topped-off without float-charging. See the Monitor State section for details. Re-charge cycles are not indicated by the STATB pin. Charging Input Pin Properties (UVLO) threshold will not be recognized until the ringing has ceased. The UVLO rising threshold is set higher than the voltage of a fully charged Li-ion single cell battery, ensuring that only a charging source capable of fully charging the battery has been applied. If the charging current loads the adapter beyond its current limit, the input voltage will be pulled down to just above the battery voltage. This is referred to as Current-LimitedAdapter (CLA) operation. The UVLO falling threshold is set close to the battery voltage pre-charge threshold to permit low-dissipation charging from a current limited adapter. Constant Current Mode Fast-charge Current Programming The CC mode is active when the battery voltage is above VTPreQ and less than VCV. The programmed CC regulation fast-charge (FQ) current is inversely proportional to the resistance between IPRGM and GND according to the equation IFQ VIPRGM _ Typ u 1000 RIPRGM The fast-charge current can be programmed for a minimum of 70mA (RIPRGM = 29.4kΩ) and a maximum of 995mA (RIPRGM = 2.05kΩ), nominally. Current regulation accuracy is dominated by gain error at high current settings, and offset error at low current settings. The range of expected fast-charge output current versus programming resistance is shown in Figures 1a and 1b. The figures show the nominal current versus nominal RIPRGM resistance as the center plot and two theoretical limit plots indicating maximum and minimum current versus nominal programming resistance. These plots are derived from models of the expected worst-case contribution of error sources depending on programmed current. The current range includes the uncertainty due to 1% tolerance resistors. The dots on each plot indicate the currents obtained with the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) E96 standard value 1% tolerance resistors.

Pre-charge current conditions the battery for fast charging. The pre-charge current value is fixed at 20% nominally of the fast-charge current for the selected input, as programmed by the resistance between IPRGM and GND. Pre-charge current regulation accuracy is dominated by offset error.

Termination When the battery voltage reaches VCV, the SC810 transitions from constant current regulation to constant voltage regulation. While VBAT is regulated to VCV, the current into the battery decreases as the battery becomes fully charged. When the output current drops below the termination threshold current, fixed at 10% of the programmed fast-charge current, charging terminates. Upon termination, the STATB pin open drain output turns off and the charger either enters monitor state or float-charges the battery, depending on the logical state of the ENB input pin. Charger output current is the sum of the battery charge current and the system load current. Battery charge current changes gradually, and establishes a slowly diminishing lower bound on the output current while charging in CV mode. The load current into a typical digital system is highly transient in nature. Charge cycle termination is detected when the sum of the battery charging current and the greatest load current occurring within the immediate 300μs to 550μs past interval is less than the programmed termination current. This timing behavior permits charge cycle termination to occur during a brief low-load-current interval, and does not require that the longer interval average load current be small. Termination threshold current accuracy is dominated by offset error. The range of expected termination current versus programming resistance is shown in Figures 3a and 3b. The figures show the nominal termination current versus nominal RIPRGM resistance as the center plot and two theoretical limit plots indicating maximum and minimum current versus nominal programming resistance. These plots are derived from models of the expected worst-case contribution of error sources depending on programmed current. The current range includes the uncertainty due to a 1% tolerance resistor. The dots on each plot indicate the currents obtained with the EIA E96 standard value 1% tolerance resistors. Figures 3a and 3b show low and high resistance ranges, respectively. Enable Input The ENB pin is a tri-level logical input that allows selection of the following behaviors: charging enabled with float-charging after termination (ENB = low range) charging enabled with float-charging disabled and battery monitoring at termination (ENB = mid range) charging disabled (ENB = high range). The ENB pin is designed to interface to a processor GPIO port powered from a peripheral supply voltage as low as 115 35 110 105 30 95 Termination Current Threshold (mA) Termination Current Threshold (mA) 100 90 85 80 75 70 65 60 55 50 45 25 20 15 10 40 35 5 30 25 20 2 2.5 3 3.5 4 4.5 5 5.5 6 6.5 7 RIPRGM (kΩ), R-tol = 1% Figure 3a — Termination Current Tolerance versus Programming Resistance, Low Resistance Range 0 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 RIPRGM (kΩ), R-tol = 1% Figure 3b — Termination Current Tolerance versus Programming Resistance, High Resistance Range 12 SC810 Applications Information (continued) 1.8V or as high as a fully charged battery. While a connected GPIO port is configured as an output, the processor writes 0 to select ENB low-range, and 1 to select high-range. The GPIO port is configured as an input to select mid-range. ENB can also be permanently grounded to select lowrange or left unconnected to select mid-range if it will not be necessary to change the level selection. The equivalent circuit looking into the ENB pin is a variable resistance, minimum 15kΩ, to an approximately 1V source. The input will float to mid range whenever the external driver sinks or sources less than 5μA, a common worst-case characteristic of a high impedance or a weak pull-up or pull-down GPIO configured as an input. The driving GPIO must be able to sink at least 25μA or source at least 50μA to ensure a low or high state, respectively. (See the Electrical Characteristics table.) With the ENB input voltage permitted to float to midrange, the charger is enabled but it will turn off its output following charge termination and will enter the monitor state. This state is explained in the next section. Midrange can be selected either by floating the input (sourcing or sinking less than 5μA) or by being externally forced such that VENB falls within the midrange limits specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. While driven low (VENB < Max VIL), the charger is enabled and will continue to float-charge the battery following termination. If the charger is already in monitor state following a previous termination, it will exit the monitor state and begin float-charging. While ENB is driven high (VENB > Min VIH), the charger is disabled and the ENB input pin enters a high impedance state, suspending tri-level functionality. The specified high level input current IIH is required only until a high level is recognized by the SC810 internal logic. The tri-level float circuitry is then disabled and the ENB input becomes high impedance. Once forced high, the ENB pin will not float to mid range. To restore tri-level operation, the ENB pin must first be pulled down to mid or low range (at least to VENB < Max VIM), then, if desired, released (by reconfiguring the GPIO as an input) to select mid-range. If the ENB GPIO has a weak pull-down when configured as an input, then it is unnecessary to drive ENB low to restore tri-level operation; simply configure the GPIO as an input. When the ENB selection changes from high-range to mid- or low-range, a new charge cycle begins and STATB goes low. Note that if a GPIO with a weak pull-up input configuration is used, its pull-up current will flow from the GPIO into the ENB pin while it is floating to mid-range. Since the GPIO is driving a 1V equivalent voltage source through a resistance (looking into ENB), this current is small — possibly less than 1μA. Nevertheless, this current is drawn from the GPIO peripheral power supply and, therefore, from the battery after termination. See the next section, Monitor State for more information. For this reason, it is preferable that the GPIO chosen to operate the ENB pin should provide a true high impedance (CMOS) configuration or a weak pull-down when configured as an input. When pulled below the float voltage, the ENB pin output current is sourced from VIN (the charging adapter), not from the battery. Monitor State If the ENB pin is floating, the charger output and STATB pin will turn off and the device will enter the monitor state when a charge cycle is complete. If the battery voltage falls below the re-charge threshold (VCV - VReQ) while in the monitor state, the charger will automatically initiate a recharge cycle. The battery leakage current during monitor state is no more than 1μA over temperature and typically less than 0.1μA at room temperature. While in the monitor state, the ENB tri-level input pin remains fully active, and although in midrange, is sensitive to both high and low levels. The SC810 can be forced from the monitor state (no float-charging) directly to floatcharging operation by driving ENB low. This operation will turn on the charger output, but will not assert the STATB output. If the ENB pin is again allowed to float to midrange, the charger will remain on only until the output current becomes less than the termination current, and charging terminates. The SC810 turns off its charging output and returns to the monitor state within a millisecond. This forced re-charge behavior is useful for periodically testing the battery state-of-charge and topping-off the battery, without float-charging and without requiring the battery to discharge to the automatic re-charge 13 SC810 Applications Information (continued) voltage. ENB should be held low for at least 1ms to ensure a successful forced re-charge. Forced re-charge can be requested at any time during the charge cycle, or even with no charging source present, with no detrimental effect on charger operation. This allows the host processor to schedule a forced re-charge at any desired interval, without regard to whether a charge cycle is already in progress, or even whether a charging source is present. Forced re-charge will neither assert nor release the STATB output. Status Output The STATB pin is an open-drain output. It is asserted (driven low) as charging begins after a valid charging input is applied and the VIN pin is greater than the input UVLO level and less than the OVP level. STATB is also asserted as charging begins after the ENB input returns to either of the enable voltage ranges (mid or low voltage) from the disable (high voltage) range. STATB is subsequently released when the termination current is reached to indicate end-of-charge, when the ENB input is driven high to disable charging, or when the input voltage is removed. If the battery is already fully charged when a charge cycle is initiated, STATB is asserted, and remains asserted for approximately 750μs before being released. The STATB pin is not asserted for automatic re-charge cycles. battery reaches 4.2V and eventually the controller is entirely in CV regulation. The soft transition effectively reduces the charge current below that which is permitted for a portion of the charge cycle, which increases charge time. In the SC810, a logical transition is implemented from CC to CV to recover the charge current lost due to the soft transition. The controller regulates only current until the output voltage exceeds the transition threshold voltage. It then switches to CV regulation. The transition voltage from CC to CV regulation is typically 5mV higher than the CV regulation voltage, which provides a sharp and clean transition free of chatter between regulation modes. The difference between the transition voltage and the regulation voltage is termed the CC/CV overshoot. While in CV regulation, the output current sense remains active. If the output current exceeds the programmed fast-charge current by 5%, the controller reverts to current regulation. The logical transition from CC to CV results in the fastest possible charging cycle that is compliant with the specified current and voltage limits of the Li-ion cell. The output current is constant at the CC limit, then decreases abruptly when the output voltage steps from the overshoot voltage to the regulation voltage at the transition to CV control. Thermal Limiting The STATB pin may be connected to an interrupt input to notify a host controller of the charging status or it can be used as an LED driver. Logical CC-to-CV Transition The SC810 differs from monolithic linear single cell Li-ion chargers that implement a linear transition from CC to CV regulation. The linear transition method uses two simultaneous feedback signals — output voltage and output current — to the closed-loop controller. When the output voltage is sufficiently below the CV regulation voltage, the influence of the voltage feedback is negligible and the output current is regulated to the desired current. As the battery voltage approaches the CV regulation voltage (4.2V), the voltage feedback signal begins to influence the control loop, which causes the output current to decrease although the output voltage has not reached 4.2V. The output voltage limit dominates the controller when the Device thermal limiting is the third output constraint of the CC/CV/TL control. This feature permits a higher input OVP threshold, and thus the use of higher voltage or poorly regulated adapters. If high input voltage results in excessive power dissipation, the output current is reduced to prevent overheating of the SC810. The thermal limiting controller reduces the output current by iT ≈ –50mA/ºC for any junction temperature TJ > T TL. When thermal limiting is inactive, TJ = TA + VΔ IFQ θJA, where VΔ is the voltage difference between the VIN pin and the BAT pin. However, if TJ computed this way exceeds T TL, then thermal limiting will become active and the thermal limiting regulation junction temperature will be 14 SC810 Applications Information (continued) TJTL = TA + VΔ I(TJTL) θJA, where I(TJTL) = IFQ + iT (TJTL − T TL). (Note that iT is a negative quantity.) Combining these two equations and solving for TJTL, the steady state junction temperature during active thermal limiting is TJTL TA V' IFQ iT TTL T JA 1 V' iT T JA Although the thermal limiting controller is able to reduce output current to zero, this does not happen in practice. Output current is reduced to I(TJTL), reducing power dissipation such that die temperature equilibrium TJTL is reached. While thermal limiting is active, all charger functions remain active and the charger logical state is preserved. The low UVLO falling threshold ( VT UVLO-F) permits the adapter voltage to be pulled down to just above the battery voltage by the charging load whenever the adapter current limit is less than the programmed fastcharge current. The SC810 should be operated with adapter voltage below the rising selection threshold (VTUVLO-R) only if the low input voltage is the result of adapter current limiting. This implies that the VIN pin first exceeds VTUVLO-R to begin charging, and is subsequently pulled down to just above the battery voltage by the charging load. Interaction of Thermal Limiting and Current Limited Adapter Charging To permit the charge current to be limited by the adapter, it is necessary that the fast-charge current be programmed greater than the maximum adapter current, (IAD-LIM). In this configuration, the CC regulator will operate with its pass device fully on (in saturation, also called “dropout”). The voltage drop from VIN to BAT is determined by the product of the minimum RDS-ON of the pass device multiplied by the adapter supply current. Operating a Charging Adapter in Current Limit In high charging current applications, charger power dissipation can be greatly reduced by operating the charging adapter in current limit. The SC810 supports adaptercurrent-limited charging with a low UVLO falling threshold and with internal circuitry designed for low input voltage operation. To operate an adapter in current limit, RIPRGM is chosen such that the programmed fast-charge current IFQ exceeds the current limit of the charging adapter IAD-LIM. Note that if IAD-LIM is less than 20% of IFQ, then the adapter voltage can be pulled down to the battery voltage while the battery voltage is below the pre-charge threshold. In this case, care must be taken to ensure that the adapter will maintain its current limit below 20% of IFQ at least until the battery voltage exceeds the pre-charge threshold. Failure to do so could permit charge current to exceed the pre-charge current while the battery voltage is below the pre-charge threshold. This happens because the low input voltage will also compress the pre-charge threshold internal reference voltage to below the battery voltage. This will prematurely advance the charger logic from precharge current regulation to fast-charge regulation, and the charge current will exceed the safe level recommended for pre-charge conditioning. In dropout, the power dissipation in the SC810 is PILIM = (minimum RDS-ON) x (IAD-LIM)2. Since minimum RDS-ON does not vary with battery voltage, dropout power dissipation is constant throughout the CC portion of the charge cycle while the adapter remains in current limit. The SC810 junction temperature will rise above ambient by PILIM x θJA. If the device temperature rises to the temperature at which the TL control loop limits charging current (rather than the current being limited by the adapter), the input voltage will rise to the adapter regulation voltage. The power dissipation will increase so that the TL regulation will further limit charge current. This will keep the adapter in voltage regulation for the remainder of the charge cycle. In this case, the SC810 will continue to charge with thermal limiting until charge current decreases while in CV regulation (reducing power dissipation sufficiently). This results in a slow charge cycle, but with no other negative effect. To ensure that the adapter remains in current limit, the internal device temperature must not rise to T TL. This implies that θJA must be kept small enough, through careful layout, to ensure that TJ = TA + (PILIM × θJA) < T TL. 15 SC810 Applications Information (continued) Input Over-Voltage Protection Short Circuit Protection The VIN pin is protected from over-voltage to at least 30V above GND. When the input voltage exceeds the OverVoltage Protection (OVP) rising threshold (VTOVP-R), charging is halted. When the input voltage falls below the OVP falling threshold (VTOVP-F), charging resumes. An OVP fault turns off the STATB output. STATB is turned on again when charging restarts. The SC810 can tolerate a BAT pin short circuit to ground indefinitely. The current into a ground short (while VBAT < 1.8V) is approximately 10mA. For VBAT > 1.8V, normal pre-charge current regulation is active. The OVP threshold has been set relatively high to permit the use of poorly regulated adapters. Such adapters may output a high voltage until loaded by the charger. A too-low OVP threshold could prevent the charger from ever turning on and loading the adapter to a lower voltage. If the adapter voltage remains high despite the charging load, the fast thermal limiting feature will immediately reduce the charging current to prevent overheating of the SC810. This behavior is illustrated in Figure 4, in which VBAT = 3.0V, IFQ = 700mA, and VVIN is stepped from 0V to 8.1V. Initially, power dissipation in the SC810 is 3.6W. A short circuit or too little programming resistance to ground on the IPRGM pin (<< 2.05kΩ) will prevent proper regulation of the BAT pin output current. Prior to enabling the output a check of the IPRGM pin is performed to ensure that there is sufficient resistance to ground. A test current is output on the IPRGM pin. If the test current produces a voltage of sufficient amplitude, then the output is enabled. An example with RIPRGM = 2.94kΩ is illustrated in Figure 5, in which the test current is applied for approximately 250μs to determine that there is no pin short. If a short is detected, the test current persists until the short to ground is removed, and then the charging startup sequence will continue normally. VVIN=8.1V, VBAT=3.0V IBAT=700mA (Initially), PDISSIPATION=3.6W (Initially) VIPRGM (1V/div) IBAT (100mA/div) VIPRGM=0V— VVIN (2V/div) IBAT (500mA/div) IBAT=0mA— VVIN (5V/div) VBAT (2V/div) VVIN =0V— VVIN ,VBAT=0V— 400μs/div IBAT=0mA— 1s/div Figure 4 — Thermal Limiting Example Notice the BAT output current is rapidly reduced to limit the internal die temperature, then continues to decline as the circuit board gradually heats up, further reducing the conduction of heat from the die to the ambient environment. The fast thermal limiting feature ensures compliance with CCSA YD/T 1591-2006, Telecommunication Industrial Standard of the People’s Republic of China — Technical Requirements and Test Method of Charger and Interface for Mobile Telecommunication Terminal, Section 4.2.3.1. Figure 5 — IPRGM Pin Short-to-Ground Test During Startup A short to ground applied to the IPRGM pin while charging will also be detected, by a different method. IPRGM pin short-to-ground detection on the IPRGM pin forces the SC810 into reset. When the IPRGM ground short is removed, the charger begins normal operation automatically without input power cycling. Over-Current Protection Over-current protection is provided in all modes of operation, including CV regulation. The output current is limited to either the programmed pre-charge current limit value 16 SC810 Applications Information (continued) or the fast-charge current limit value, depending on the voltage at the output. this event. While unlikely to do any harm, this effect must also be considered. Operation Without a Battery USB Dedicated Charger Compatibility The SC810 can be operated as a 4.2V LDO regulator without the battery present, for example, for factory testing. If this use is anticipated, the total output capacitance, CBAT plus any other capacitors tied directly to BAT pin network, should be at least 2.2μF but less than 22μF to ensure stability in CV regulation. To operate the charger without a battery, the ENB pin must be driven low or grounded. The output current is limited by the programmed fast-charge current. The charger should not be disabled (VENB > VIH) without a battery present. The SC810 is well suited to the USB Charging Specification, Revision 1.0, Dedicated Charger, Sections 3.5 and 4.1, due to thermal limiting and its current-limited-supply charging behavior. Dynamically Selectable Charge Current The IPRGM resistance can be altered dynamically under processor control by switching a second IPRGM pin resistor. When the higher current is required, the switch is turned on, making the effective programming resistance equal to the parallel combination of the two resistors. The external circuit is illustrated in Figure 6. IPRGM 4 RIPRGM_HI Hi/Lo Current Select RIPRGM Figure 6 — Dynamic selection of low and high charge currents. Note that the IPRGM pin resistor programs the fast-charge, pre-charge, and termination currents, so all will be modified by a change in the IPRGM pin resistor. An open-drain GPIO can be used directly to engage the parallel resistor RIPRGM_HI. Care must be taken to ensure that the RDS-ON of the GPIO is considered in the selection of RIPRGM_HI. Also important is the part-to-part and temperature variation of the GPIO RDS-ON, and their contribution to the High Current charge current tolerance. Note also that IPRGM will be pulled up briefly to as high as 3V during startup to check for an IPRGM static pinshort to ground. A small amount of current could, potentially, flow from IPRGM into the GPIO ESD structure through RIPRGM_HI during The USB Dedicated Charger is required to limit its output current to more than 0.5A and less than 1.5A. A dedicated charger identifies itself by shorting together the USB D+ and D- lines. Once the dedicated charger is detected, the SC810, with its 1A maximum programmed fast charge current, permits the fast-charge current to be set higher than the 500mA USB High Power Mode specified limit to permit faster charging of a large battery. (See the section Dynamically Selectable Charge Current.) If the USB Dedicated Charger’s current limit exceeds the SC810 programmed fast-charge current, then its output will regulate to 5V, and the fast-charge current will be determined by the SC810 IPRGM pin resistance to ground. If the resulting power dissipation in the SC810 causes an excessive rise in temperature, then thermal limiting will reduce the charge current as needed to ensure safe charging. But if the USB Dedicated charger’s current limit is less than the SC810 programmed fast-charge current, then its output voltage will be pulled down to the battery voltage plus charging path dropout. (The USB Dedicated Charger is required to maintain its current limit down to 2V.) This behavior is recognized in the USB Battery Charging Specification, Section 3.5, as an accepted means to reduce power dissipation in the charging circuit while charging at high current. The SC810 thermal limiting and current-limited-adapter charging capability together ensure reliable charging at any programmed charge current, using any USB Battery Charging Specification compliant Dedicated Charger, regardless of its current limit. External Power Path Management Some applications require that the battery be isolated from the load while charging. Figure 7 illustrates a typical charger bypass circuit. This circuit powers the load directly from the charging source via the Schottky diode DBYPASS. 17 SC810 Applications Information (continued) DBYPASS Opt. QISO RISO_PD SC810 VADAPTER/USB 2.2μF VIN ENB STATB BAT GND Device Load RIPRGM IPRGM 2.2μF Figure 7 — Battery Isolation and Power Path Bypass, Powering the Load Directly From the Charging Adapter When the charging source is present, the p-channel MOSFET battery isolation switch Q ISO source-to-gate voltage VSG is equal to minus the DBYPASS forward-biased voltage drop, ensuring that the switch QISO is off (open). When the charging source is removed, the MOSFET gate is pulled down to ground by RISO_PD, closing the battery isolation switch and connecting the battery to the load. When the charging source is removed, the turn-on of QISO could be delayed due to its gate capacitance. If so, the substrate PN diode of QISO will become forward biased, holding the load voltage to within 0.7V of the battery voltage until VSG > V TH, turning on QISO. This momentary voltage drop can be mitigated by the use of an optional Schottky diode in parallel with QISO, as shown. With the load isolated from the battery, the charging adapter must supply both the load current and the charging current. If the sum of these should ever exceed the current capacity of the adapter, VADAPTER will be pulled down. Current limited adapter operation of the SC810 ensures charge cycle integrity if the device load pulls the adapter voltage down to the battery voltage plus charger dropout voltage at the CC current, or even deeper into dropout if necessary to further reduce the charge current to power the device load. To better understand the trade-offs between charger bypass and direct connection of the load to the battery, see the Semtech Application Note AN–PM–0802, Tradeoffs Between Direct Battery Connection vs. Bypassing the Charger. Capacitor Selection Low cost, low ESR ceramic capacitors such as the X5R and X7R dielectric material types are recommended. The BAT pin capacitor should be at least 1μF, but can be as large as desired to accommodate the required input capacitors of regulators connected directly to the battery terminal. BAT pin total capacitance must be limited if the SC810 is to be operated without the battery present. See the section Operation Without a Battery. The VIN pin capacitor is typically between 0.1μF and 2.2μF, although larger values will not degrade performance. Capacitance must be evaluated at the expected bias voltage (4.2V for the BAT pin capacitor, the expected VVIN supply regulation voltage for the VIN pin capacitor), rather than the zero-volt capacitance rating. PCB Layout Considerations Layout for linear devices is not as critical as for a switching regulator. However, careful attention to detail will ensure reliable operation. Place input and output capacitors close to the device for optimal transient response and device behavior. Connect all ground connections directly to the ground plane. If there is no ground plane, connect to a common local ground point before connecting to board ground near the GND pin. Attaching the part to a larger copper footprint will enable better heat transfer from the device, especially on PCBs with internal ground and power planes. 18 SC810 Outline Drawing — MLPD-UT6 2x2 A D B DIM E PIN 1 INDICATOR (LASER MARK) A2 A SEATING PLANE aaa C C A A1 A2 b D D1 E E1 e L N aaa bbb DIMENSIONS INCHES MILLIMETERS MIN NOM MAX MIN NOM MAX .024 .002 (.006) .007 .010 .012 .075 .079 .083 .061 .067 .071 .075 .079 .083 .026 .031 .035 .020 BSC .010 .014 .018 6 .003 .004 .020 .000 0.60 0.05 (0.152) 0.18 0.25 0.30 1.90 2.00 2.10 1.55 1.70 1.80 1.90 2.00 2.10 0.65 0.80 0.90 0.50 BSC 0.25 0.35 0.45 6 0.08 0.10 0.50 0.00 A1 D1 2 1 LxN E1 N bxN e bbb C A B NOTES: 1.
