Application Note: SY6981
High Efficiency, 1.2A
Two-cell Boost Li-Ion Battery Charger
General Description
SY6981 is a 3.6-5.5V
IN
, 1.2A two-cell synchronous
Boost Li-Ion battery charger which integrates 1MHz
switching frequency and full protection functions. The
charge current up to 1.2A can be programmed by using
the external resistor for different portable applications
and indicates the charger current information
simultaneously. It also has a programmable charge
timeout for safety battery charge operation and a
programmable input voltage threshold for adaptive
input current limit. SY6981 can disconnect output
when there is an output short circuit or shutdown. It
consists of 18V rating FETs with extremely low on
resistance to achieve high charge efficiency and simple
peripheral circuit design.
SY6981 along with small QFN3×3 footprint provides
small PCB area application.

Pin Number
Description
Charge status indication pin. It is open-drain output pin and pulled high to SVIN through
1
a LED to indicate the charge in process. When the charge is done, the LED will be off.
Battery CV voltage selection pin. Program 4 different CV thresholds by setting different
2
voltage on this pin and pin5. Floating or grounding this pin in the application. CV2 pin
can’t be pulled high to any bias voltage higher than 3.3V.
Charge time limit pin. Connect this pin with a capacitor to ground. Internal current source
3
charge the capacitor for TC mode and CC mode’s charge time limit. TC charge time limit
is about 1/9 of CC charge time.
Thermal protection pin. UTP threshold is typical 76% of V
SVIN
and OTP threshold is
4
typical 30.5% of V
SVIN
. Pull up to SVIN can disable charge logic and make the IC operate
as a normal Boost regulator. Pull down to ground can shut down the IC.
Battery CV voltage selection pin. Program 4 different CV thresholds by setting different
5
voltage on this pin and pin2. The detailed information is shown in description section.
Voltage sense of SVIN. If the voltage drops to internal 1.195V reference voltage, the
6
SVIN will be clamped to setting value and input current will be limited.
7
Enable control pin. High logic for enable on, and low logic for enable off.
8
Signal ground pin.
Charge current program pin. Pull down to GND with a resistor R
ICHG.
The mirror current
about 1/10000 of the blocking FET current will dump into the external RC network
9
through ICHG pin and compared to the internal reverence 1V.
So I
CC
= (1V/ R
ICHG
) ×10000, I
TC
= (1V/ R
ICHG
)×1000+0.02.
Connect it to the drain of internal blocking FET. Bypass at least a 4.7µF ceramic cap to
10, 13
GND.
Boost-strap pin. Supply rectified FET’s gate driver. Decouple this pin to LX with a 0.1µF
11
ceramic cap.
12
Battery positive pin.
14
Switch node pin. Connect it to the external inductor.
15
Power ground pin.
Analog power input pin. Connect a MLCC from this pin to ground to decouple high
16
harmonic noise. This pin has OVP and UVLO function to make the charger operate
within safe input voltage range.
