Product details
Overview
LTC3558EUD#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a monolithic USB battery charger with integrated synchronous buck and buck-boost regulators for single-cell Li-Ion/Polymer systems. It delivers up to 950mA charge current, 400mA per regulator output, and operates at 2.25MHz switching frequency in a thermally enhanced 3mm × 3mm QFN-20 package - enabling compact, high-efficiency power management in portable medical monitors.
For engineers reviewing the LTC3558EUD#TRPBF datasheet, LTC3558EUD#TRPBF pinout, LTC3558EUD#TRPBF application, or LTC3558EUD#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-regulator architecture, HPWR-selectable charge current (20%/100%), NTC-based thermal qualification, internal timer termination, and guaranteed –40°C to +85°C operation without derating.
Technical Context
The LTC3558EUD#TRPBF integrates three independent power blocks: a linear USB battery charger with PROG-pin current programming and CHRG status monitoring; a pulse-skip/Burst Mode® buck regulator (PVIN1 → VOUT1) with internal compensation and 780–820mV FB1 reference; and a buck-boost regulator (PVIN2 → VOUT2) supporting 2.65–5.60V output with MODE-selectable PWM/Burst operation and VC2 compensation node.
Its control logic coordinates shared input sourcing (BAT/PVIN1/PVIN2 tied), manages thermal regulation via NTC interface with cold/hot fault thresholds at 75–78%VCC and 33.4–36.4%VCC, and enforces safety through differential UVLO (50mV hysteresis), bad-battery latching (0.5hr timeout below 2.9V), and 4-hour safety timer with recharge reset on VRECHRG (–95mV relative to VFLOAT).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Battery Charge Current | Up to 950mA max; programmable via single PROG resistor (e.g., 1.74kΩ = 460mA @ HPWR=1); enables USB-compliant 100/500mA modes. |
| Regulator Output Current | 400mA per regulator (buck & buck-boost); supports simultaneous dual-rail loads like 1.2V core + 3.3V I/O in handheld devices. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.25MHz typical (1.91–2.59MHz range); allows use of small 2.2μH/4.7μH inductors and minimizes EMI in space-constrained layouts. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C; fully specified over industrial range with no derating - suitable for outdoor portable instrumentation. |
| Package | 20-lead 3mm × 3mm QFN (UD), 0.75mm profile; exposed pad (Pin 21) must be soldered to PCB ground for thermal performance (θJA = 68°C/W). |
| Feedback Reference | 800mV ±20mV for both FB1 and FB2; enables precise output regulation with standard resistor dividers and low-error voltage setting. |
| UVLO Threshold | VUVLO = 4.0V (typ), with 200mV hysteresis and differential lockout at 50mV (VCC–BAT); prevents unstable charging during weak USB source conditions. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-lead (3mm × 3mm) plastic QFN (UD), 0.75mm height, exposed thermal pad (Pin 21 = GND).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (1) | Power Ground | Primary ground return; connects directly to exposed pad (Pin 21) for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| BAT (2) | Battery Terminal | Charge current output and float voltage regulation node (4.2V); ties to PVIN1/PVIN2 for shared battery input. |
| MODE (3) | Regulator Operating Mode Select | High = Burst Mode® for both regulators; Low = Pulse Skip (buck) + PWM (buck-boost); critical for efficiency vs noise trade-off. |
| FB1 (4) | Buck Regulator Feedback | Monitors VOUT1 via resistor divider; 800mV reference enables accurate 1.2V output with <±1% load regulation. |
| EN1 (5) | Buck Regulator Enable | Active-high digital control; high-impedance input requires external pull-up/down; enables independent rail sequencing. |
| SW1 (6) | Buck Switch Node | Connects to external inductor; carries high di/dt switching current - requires tight layout and Kelvin grounding. |
| PVIN1 (7) | Buck Input Supply | Tied to BAT/PVIN2; accepts 2.7–4.2V; requires 10μF ceramic decoupling to GND for stability. |
| PVIN2 (8) | Buck-Boost Input Supply | Shared with BAT/PVIN1; same input range and decoupling requirement as PVIN1. |
| SWAB2 (9) | Buck-Boost Switch A/B Node | One end of coupled inductor; connects to SWCD2; handles bidirectional current in boost/buck transitions. |
| SWCD2 (10) | Buck-Boost Switch C/D Node | Second end of coupled inductor; forms full 4-switch buck-boost topology with SWAB2. |
| VOUT2 (11) | Buck-Boost Regulated Output | Programmable 2.65–5.60V output; delivers up to 400mA with dropout-free operation across full Li-ion range. |
| SUSP (12) | Charger Suspend Control | Logic input >1.2V disables charging and reduces IBAT to 1.5μA; internal weak pull-down ensures safe default state. |
| FB2 (13) | Buck-Boost Feedback | 800mV reference input; used with resistor divider to set VOUT2; supports precision 3.3V or 5V outputs. |
| VC2 (14) | Compensation Node | Error amplifier output; connects external Type I/III compensation network to FB2 for loop stability. |
| EN2 (15) | Buck-Boost Enable | Active-high control; independent of EN1 for flexible power rail enable sequencing. |
| HPWR (16) | Charge Current Scaling | Selects 100% (≥1.2V) or 20% (<0.4V) of programmed current; implements USB high-power/low-power mode switching. |
| NTC (17) | Thermistor Interface | Analog input for NTC thermistor; monitors battery temperature; disables charging outside 0°C–45°C range unless disabled by grounding. |
| PROG (18) | Charge Current Program/Monitor | Sets ICHG via resistor to GND; also provides real-time current monitor (IBAT = IPROG × 800) for system telemetry. |
| CHRG (19) | Open-Drain Status Output | Indicates charging/not charging/unresponsive battery/temperature fault; requires external pull-up for LED or MCU GPIO monitoring. |
| VCC (20) | USB Input Supply | Accepts 4.3–5.5V USB input; powers charger only; requires 1μF decoupling to GND. |

FAQ
What is the maximum battery charge current supported by the LTC3558EUD#TRPBF?
The LTC3558EUD#TRPBF supports up to 950mA maximum battery charge current. This is programmable via the PROG pin resistor and scaled by the HPWR pin: at HPWR ≥1.2V, full current (e.g., 460mA with 1.74kΩ) is enabled; at HPWR ≤0.4V, current is reduced to 20% (e.g., 92mA). The absolute maximum BAT pin current rating is 1A per absolute maximum ratings.
How does the LTC3558EUD#TRPBF handle battery temperature monitoring?
The LTC3558EUD#TRPBF uses the NTC pin to interface with a negative temperature coefficient thermistor co-located with the battery. It compares the NTC voltage against cold (75–78%VCC) and hot (33.4–36.4%VCC) thresholds. If temperature is out of range, charging pauses until the battery re-enters specification - a mandatory safety feature for certified portable medical devices.
Can the LTC3558EUD#TRPBF operate with only the USB input and no battery connected?
No - the LTC3558EUD#TRPBF requires the BAT, PVIN1, and PVIN2 pins to be tied together for proper operation. Without a battery, the charger cannot regulate VFLOAT and the regulators lack a valid input source. The device will not deliver regulated outputs if BAT is floating or disconnected, as confirmed in the Applications Information section and Figure 1 of the datasheet.
What is the purpose of the CHRG pin on the LTC3558EUD#TRPBF?
The CHRG pin on the LTC3558EUD#TRPBF is an open-drain status indicator that signals four distinct battery charger states: active charging (pulled low), not charging (high impedance), unresponsive battery (latched fault), or temperature out-of-range. It requires an external pull-up resistor or LED and provides real-time telemetry to the host MCU without additional ADC resources.
Does the LTC3558EUD#TRPBF support automatic recharge after charge termination?
Yes - the LTC3558EUD#TRPBF implements automatic recharge when the battery voltage falls below VRECHRG (typically 4.105V, or –95mV relative to VFLOAT). Upon crossing this threshold, the safety timer resets and a new charge cycle begins. The 1.7ms filter time prevents false triggers from transient voltage dips, ensuring reliable top-off behavior during extended standby.
