The LTC®4054 is a complete constant-current/constantvoltage linear charger for single cell lithium-ion batteries.
Its ThinSOT package and low external component count
make the LTC4054 ideally suited for portable applications.
Furthermore, the LTC4054 is specifically designed to work
within USB power specifications.
No external sense resistor is needed, and no blocking
diode is required due to the internal MOSFET architecture.
Thermal feedback regulates the charge current to limit the
die temperature during high power operation or high
ambient temperature. The charge voltage is fixed at 4.2V,
and the charge current can be programmed externally with
a single resistor. The LTC4054 automatically terminates
the charge cycle when the charge current drops to 1/10th
the programmed value after the final float voltage is
reached.
When the input supply (wall adapter or USB supply) is
removed, the LTC4054 automatically enters a low current
state, dropping the battery drain current to less than 2µA.
The LTC4054 can be put into shutdown mode, reducing
the supply current to 25µA.
Other features include charge current monitor, undervoltage
lockout, automatic recharge and a status pin to indicate
charge termination and the presence of an input voltage.
