MIC79050
Simple Lithium-Ion Battery Charger
General Description
The MIC79050 is a simple single-cell lithium-ion battery char-
ger. It includes an on-chip pass transistor for high precision
charging. Featuring ultrahigh precision (+0.75% over the Li-
ion battery charging temperature range) and “zero” off mode
current, the MIC79050 provides a very simple, cost effective
solution for charging lithium-ion battery.
Other features of the MIC79050 include current limit and
thermal shutdown protection. In the event the input voltage
to the charger is disconnected, the MIC79050 also provides
minimal reverse-current and reversed-battery protection.
The MIC79050 is a fixed 4.2V device and comes in the ther-
mally-enhanced MSO-8, SO-8, and SOT-223 packages. The
8-pin versions also come equipped with enable and feedback
inputs. All versions are specified over the temperature range
of –40°C to +125°C.
Features
• High accuracy charge voltage:
±0.75% over -5°C to + 60°C (Li-ion charging
temperature range)
• “Zero” off-mode current
• 10µA reverse leakage
• Ultralow 380mV dropout at 500mA
• Wide input voltage range
• Logic controlled enable input (8-pin devices only)
• Thermal shutdown and current limit protection
• Power MSOP-8, Power SOIC-8, and SOT-223
• Pulse charging capability

Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
The maximum allowable power dissipation at any T
A
(ambient temperature) is calculated using: P
D(max)
= (T
J(max)
– T
A
)
÷ θ
JA
. Exceeding the
maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown.
Battery voltage temperature coefficient is the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range.
Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Parts are tested for load regulation in the load
range from 100µA to 500mA. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are covered by the thermal regulation specification.
Dropout voltage is defined as the input to battery output differential at which the battery voltage drops 2% below its nominal value measured at
1V differential.
Ground pin current is the charger quiescent current plus pass transistor base current. The total current drawn from the supply is the sum of the
load current plus the ground pin current.
V
EN
is the voltage externally applied to devices with the EN (enable) input pin. [MSO-8(MM) and SO-8 (M) packages only.]
Thermal regulation is the change in battery voltage at a time “t” after a change in power dissipation is applied, excluding load or line regulation
effects. Specifications are for a 500mA load pulse at V
IN
= 16V for t = 10ms.
