Product details
Overview
LTC4053EDD-4.2 from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a standalone linear lithium-ion battery charger IC designed for USB-powered portable devices. It integrates an on-chip P-channel MOSFET, delivers up to 500 mA charge current with ±7% accuracy, regulates float voltage at 4.20 V ±1%, and features thermal regulation to limit junction temperature to 105°C. It is used in MP3 players, digital cameras, and handheld computers requiring single-cell Li-Ion charging directly from 5 V USB.
For engineers reviewing the LTC4053EDD-4.2 datasheet, LTC4053EDD-4.2 pinout, LTC4053EDD-4.2 application, or LTC4053EDD-4.2 equivalent, key selection considerations include programmable charge current via PROG resistor, C/10 termination detection, NTC thermistor-based temperature qualification, AC present status output, and thermal foldback behavior under high ambient or power dissipation conditions.
Technical Context
The LTC4053EDD-4.2 implements a three-mode control architecture-constant-current (CC), constant-voltage (CV), and constant-temperature (CT)-with priority-based feedback loops. The CC loop servos the PROG pin to 1.5 V; the CV loop maintains BAT at 4.20 V via internal 2.485 V reference and resistor divider; the CT loop activates when die temperature approaches 105°C, reducing charge current to hold junction temperature.
It supports trickle charge below 2.48 V battery voltage, automatic recharge at 4.035 V, and programmable timer termination using external capacitor on TIMER pin (e.g., 0.1 µF = 3 hours). All status outputs-CHRG, FAULT, and ACPR-are open-drain with defined pull-down strength and logic thresholds.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBAT Float Voltage | 4.20 V ±1% - ensures precise Li-Ion cell termination without overvoltage stress |
| ICHG Max | 500 mA (RPROG = 3 kΩ) - programmable via single resistor; ±7% accuracy over temp |
| TJ Limit | 105°C - thermal regulation automatically reduces charge current to prevent die overheating |
| VUVLO | 4.25 V (rising), 4.05 V (falling) - prevents operation outside safe USB input range |
| ISHDN | 25 µA - ultra-low shutdown supply current preserves system standby time |
| C/10 Detection | 50 mA (RPROG = 3 kΩ) - latches CHRG pin to indicate near-end-of-charge condition |
| NTC Input Range | 0°C to 50°C qualification - hot/cold thresholds set by external 10 kΩ NTC + 1% RHOT resistor |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-lead, 3 mm × 3 mm, 0.75 mm profile DFN (DD package); exposed pad (Pin 11) is GND and must be soldered to PCB for thermal performance (θJA = 40°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CHRG | Open-drain charge status | Pulled low during active charge; transitions to 30 µA weak pull-down at C/10; high-Z at timeout |
| VCC | Input supply (4.25–6.5 V) | Accepts USB or wall adapter; includes UVLO and sleep mode entry when ≤4 V or within 35 mV of VBAT |
| FAULT | Open-drain fault indicator | Pulled low for defective battery (VBAT <2.48 V after ¼ timer) or NTC out-of-range condition |
| TIMER | Timer capacitor connection | CTIMER sets total charge time: Time (hr) = (CTIMER × 3 hr)/0.1 µF; shorted to GND disables timer |
| GND | Power and signal ground | Shared with exposed thermal pad; mandatory PCB soldering for thermal integrity |
| ACPR | Open-drain AC present flag | Pulled low when VCC > UVLO threshold and VCC − VBAT > 35 mV; high-Z otherwise |
| BAT | Battery charge output | Delivers regulated current to Li-Ion cell; includes internal 4.20 V reference divider and sleep-mode isolation |
| SHDN | Shutdown control input | Pulled low disables charger (ICC = 25 µA); requires ≥0.6 V for normal operation |
| PROG | Charge current programming | 1.5 V servo point for ICHG = 1500 V/RPROG; also enables real-time current monitoring |
| NTC | Thermistor interface input | Monitors battery temperature via external 10 kΩ NTC; suspends charge if outside 0°C–50°C window |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated P-MOSFET | Eliminates need for external pass transistor, sense resistor, or blocking diode - reduces BOM to 3 passive components |
| Thermal Regulation | Automatically scales charge current to maintain TJ ≤ 105°C - enables aggressive layout without derating for worst-case ambient |
| Trickle-to-Fast Transition | Initiates 50 mA trickle charge if VBAT < 2.48 V; transitions to full current once threshold exceeded - protects deeply discharged cells |
| C/10 Charge Termination | Detects 10% of programmed current and asserts weak-pull CHRG state - provides reliable end-of-charge signal for host microcontroller |
| NTC Temperature Qualification | Supports cold/hot cutoff at ~0°C and ~50°C using standard 10 kΩ NTC - prevents charging outside safe battery thermal envelope |

FAQ
What is the exact float voltage regulation accuracy of the LTC4053EDD-4.2?
The LTC4053EDD-4.2 regulates battery float voltage at 4.20 V with ±1% accuracy over the full operating temperature range (–40°C to 85°C). This specification is guaranteed by design and confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under VBAT, with min/typ/max values of 4.158 V / 4.200 V / 4.242 V at TA = 25°C and across temperature.
How does thermal regulation function in the LTC4053EDD-4.2 during high ambient temperature operation?
The LTC4053EDD-4.2 monitors its own junction temperature and automatically reduces charge current when TJ approaches 105°C. This constant-temperature mode overrides constant-current mode to hold die temperature at ~105°C, preventing thermal stress. The PROG pin voltage remains proportional to actual delivered current, enabling real-time monitoring even during thermal foldback.
Can the LTC4053EDD-4.2 be used without an NTC thermistor?
Yes - the NTC function is optional and can be disabled by grounding the NTC pin. When disabled, temperature qualification is inactive, and charging proceeds normally based on voltage and timer conditions only. However, disabling NTC removes cold/hot charge suspension, so this configuration is appropriate only in thermally controlled environments where battery temperature remains within safe limits.
What is the minimum VCC undervoltage lockout hysteresis for the LTC4053EDD-4.2?
The LTC4053EDD-4.2 has a VCC undervoltage lockout (UVLO) hysteresis of 200 mV, with a rising threshold of 4.25 V and a falling threshold of 4.05 V. This ensures stable enable/disable behavior during marginal USB supply conditions and prevents oscillation near the UVLO boundary.
How is charge current monitored in real time using the LTC4053EDD-4.2?
Charge current is monitored in real time via the PROG pin: IBAT = (VPROG / RPROG) × 1000. During constant-current mode, VPROG is servoed to 1.5 V; during thermal foldback or CV mode, VPROG drops proportionally, allowing accurate measurement of actual delivered current without additional sensing components.
