DESCRIPTION
The
LTC
®
4013
is a high voltage battery charger controller
that supports float, absorption and equalization lead-acid
and constant-current/constant-voltage Li-Ion charging
algorithms. It is particularly well suited for charging a wide
range of lead-acid batteries, including both vented and
sealed type. The LTC4013 also supports Li-Ion/Polymer,
LiFePO
4
, NiMH, NiCd and other battery types.
Charging is performed with a high efficiency synchronous
buck (step-down) converter that uses external N-channel
MOSFETs. Switching frequency is programmed with a
resistor or synchronized with an external clock for use
in multiphase applications. Charge current is set with an
external sense resistor.
The device includes maximum power point tracking in-
put voltage regulation for limited power inputs such as
solar panels. Other features include user-programmable
absorption and equalization times, temperature-adjusted
regulation voltages and an external NFET isolation diode.

Note 1.
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may
cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute Maximum
Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime.
Note 2.
The LTC4013 is tested under pulse loaded conditions such that
T
J
≈ T
A
. The LTC4013E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 85°C junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C
to 125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design,
characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. The
LTC4013I is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction
temperature range. The junction temperature (T
J
in °C) is calculated
from the ambient temperature (T
A
in °C) and power dissipation (P
D
in
Watts) according to the formula: T
J
= T
A
+ P
D
• θ
JA
where
θ
JA
(in °C/W)
is the package thermal impedance. Note that the maximum ambient
temperature consistent with these specifications is determined by specific
operating conditions in conjunction with board layout, the rated package
thermal resistance and other environmental factors. This IC includes
over temperature protection that is intended to protect the device during
momentary overload. Junction temperature will exceed 125°C when over
temperature protection is active. Continuous operation above the specified
maximum operating junction temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 3.
V
IN
does not include switching currents. V
BST
= INTV
CC
and
V
SW
= 0V for testing.
Note 4.
I
VIN
current also includes current that charges capacitance on
CLKOUT. This current is approximately C
CLKOUT
• 5V • f
SW
. For this test
C
CLKOUT
was 100pF, f
SW
was 1MHz (R
T
= 40.2k) so the current included is
0.5mA. In normal operation the CLKOUT capacitance is much less.
