MAX17005B/MAX17006B/MAX17015B
The MAX17005B/MAX17006B/MAX17015B are high-fre-
quency multichemistry battery chargers. These circuits
feature a new high-frequency current-mode architecture
that significantly reduces component size and cost. The
charger uses a high-side MOSFET with n-channel syn-
chronous rectifier. Widely adjustable charge current,
charge voltage, and input current limit simplify the con-
struction of highly accurate and efficient chargers.
The charge voltage and charge current are set with
analog control inputs. The charge current setting can
also be adjusted with a PWM input. High-accuracy cur-
rent-sense amplifiers provide fast cycle-by-cycle cur-
rent-mode control to protect against short circuits to the
battery and respond quickly to system load transients.
In addition, the charger provides a high-accuracy ana-
log output that is proportional to the adapter current. In
the MAX17015B, this current monitor remains active
when the adapter is absent to monitor battery dis-
charge current.
The MAX17005B charges three or four Li+ series cells,
and the MAX17006B charges two or three Li+ series
cells. The MAX17015B adjusts the charge voltage set-
ting and the number of cells through a feedback resis-
tor-divider from the output. All variants of the charger
can provide at least 4A of charge current with a 10mΩ
sense resistor.
The charger utilizes a charge pump to control an n-channel
adapter selection switch. The charge pump remains
active even when the charger is off. When the adapter
is absent, a p-channel MOSFET selects the battery.
The MAX17005B/MAX17006B/MAX17015B are avail-
able in a small, 4mm x 4mm x 0.8mm 20-pin, lead-free
TQFN package. An evaluation kit is available to reduce
design time.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
