DescripTion
The LTC
®
4061 is a full-featured, flexible, standalone linear
charger for single-cell Lithium-Ion batteries. It is capable
of operating within USB power specifications.
Both programmable time and programmable current
based termination schemes are available. Furthermore,
the
CHRG
open-drain status pin can be programmed to
indicate the battery charge state according to the needs
of the application. Additional safety features designed
to maximize battery lifetime and reliability include NTC
battery temperature sensing and the SmartStart charg-
ing algorithm.
No external sense resistor or external blocking diode is
required for charging due to the internal MOSFET archi-
tecture. Internal thermal feedback regulates the charge
current to maintain a constant die temperature during
high power operation or high ambient temperature condi-
tions. The charge current is programmed with an external
resistor. With power applied, the LTC4061 can be put into
shutdown mode to reduce the supply current to 20µA and
the battery drain current to less than 5µA.
Other features include smart recharge, USB
C/5
cur-
rent programming input, undervoltage lockout and AC
Present logic output.

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 LTC4061 is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls.
Note 3:
Failure to correctly solder the exposed pad of the package to the
PC board will result in a thermal resistance much higher than 40°C/W.
Note 4:
Supply current includes PROG pin current and I
DET
pin current
(approximately 100µA each) but does not include any current delivered to
the battery through the BAT pin (approximately 100mA).
Note 5:
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions.
Overtemperature protection will become active at a junction temperature
greater than the maximum operating temperature. Continuous operation
above the specified maximum operating junction temperature may impair
device reliability.
