Product details
Overview
LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF from Analog Devices is a Li-ion/polymer shunt battery charger IC with integrated low-battery disconnect, thermal qualification via NTC, and programmable 4.0V/4.1V/4.2V float voltage. It operates from 550nA quiescent current, supports up to 50mA internal shunt current, and delivers near-zero leakage (<0.025nA) battery disconnect at 2.7V or 3.2V thresholds-enabling energy harvesting, thin-film battery backup, and solar-powered memory retention systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF pinout, LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF application, or LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include shunt-based charging simplicity (single external resistor), ±1% float voltage accuracy over temperature, ultralow-power NTC sampling, and thermally enhanced 2mm × 3mm DFN-8 package with exposed pad for thermal management.
Technical Context
The LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF implements a shunt-regulated architecture where charge current flows through an external resistor (RIN) into the battery via the internal PFET body diode until VCC reaches the low-battery connect threshold (VLBC_VCC), after which MP1 closes to directly connect BAT and VCC. Its 3-state ADJ pin decoder selects float voltage (GND = 4.0V, floating = 4.1V, VCC = 4.2V), while NTC monitoring uses pulsed 30–200µs biasing at ~0.003% duty cycle to reduce power consumption.
Low-battery disconnect is latching and near-zero-current: below VLBD, the internal switch opens and leakage remains ≤25nA across –40°C to 125°C; reconnection requires VCC to rise above VLBC_VCC (3.6V when LBSEL = VCC) to turn on MP1. HBO provides CMOS high-battery status with 40mV threshold and 100mV hysteresis referenced to effective float voltage (VFLOAT_EFF), including NTC-induced reductions.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead (2mm × 3mm) plastic DFN with 0.75mm profile and exposed thermal pad (Pin 9, not internally connected; must be soldered to PCB ground).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| NTCBIAS (1) | NTC bias reference source | Pulsed 30–200µs VCC output at ~0.003% duty cycle; powers external NTC/resistor divider with minimal average current (30–50pA avg) |
| NTC (2) | Thermistor input node | Compares against internal resistor divider taps to detect battery temperature; triggers ∆VFLOAT(NTC) reduction steps above 40°C |
| ADJ (3) | Float voltage programming input | 3-state logic: GND → 4.0V, floating → 4.1V, VCC → 4.2V; sampled every 1.2s (HBO high) or 3.6s (HBO low) |
| HBO (4) | High-battery status output | CMOS active-high signal indicating VCC ≥ VFLOAT_EFF – 40mV; sinks 1mA low, sources 0.5mA high |
| LBSEL (5) | Low-battery disconnect level select | GND → 3.2V disconnect, VCC → 2.7V disconnect; must be hard-wired, not floated |
| GND (6, 9) | Power and signal ground | Pin 6 is electrical ground; Pin 9 is exposed thermal pad-must be soldered to PCB ground plane for θJA = 76°C/W |
| BAT (7) | Battery terminal | Sources current to VCC when no input supply present; disconnects from VCC below VLBD to prevent deep discharge |
| VCC (8) | System load supply node | Regulated output (4.0/4.1/4.2V); sinks up to 50mA; decoupling capacitor ≥0.1µF required |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt battery charger applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX1555 | Linear charger with 100mA max current; requires external current-limit resistor; no NTC support; 25µA quiescent current | Designed for wall-adapter charging only; unsuitable for energy harvesting due to high IQ | Select MAX1555 only for cost-sensitive, high-current AC-powered backup where thermal qualification is unnecessary |
| BQ29700 | Li-ion protector IC only-no charging function; 1.5µA IQ; fixed 2.5V/3.0V disconnect; no float voltage regulation | Requires separate charger IC; lacks integrated shunt regulation and voltage programming | Choose BQ29700 only when adding standalone protection to existing charger designs with strict size constraints |

FAQ
What is the minimum input current required for the LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF to initiate charging?
The LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF begins regulating VCC as soon as input current exceeds its 550nA operating current-enabling charging from sources as low as 1µA. No minimum "start-up" current threshold exists; the device enters active regulation once VCC rises above the low-battery connect threshold (VLBC_VCC ≈ 3.6V with LBSEL = VCC), which occurs after sufficient charge accumulates via the internal PFET body diode.
How does the NTC qualification affect the effective float voltage of the LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF?
The LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF reduces float voltage in discrete 50mV (ADJ = GND), 75mV (ADJ = floating), or 100mV (ADJ = VCC) steps for each 10°C rise above 40°C, based on NTC thermistor voltage ratios matching internal thresholds NTCTH1–NTCTH4. At 70°C+, VFLOAT_EFF reaches its minimum: 3.800V (ADJ = GND), 3.800V (ADJ = floating), or 3.800V (ADJ = VCC)-ensuring safe operation under thermal stress.
Can the LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF be used with batteries other than Li-ion or Li-polymer?
No-the LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF is specifically designed for single-cell Li-ion and Li-polymer batteries with nominal voltages of 3.6V–3.7V and full-charge voltages of 4.0V–4.2V. Its float voltage options, disconnect thresholds, and NTC qualification curve are calibrated for these chemistries; using it with NiMH, LiFePO4, or lead-acid batteries would result in undercharging, overcharging, or incorrect thermal response.
What is the purpose of the exposed pad (Pin 9) on the LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF DFN package?
The exposed pad (Pin 9) on the LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF is not electrically connected internally but serves as a thermal interface-requiring direct soldering to the PCB ground plane to achieve the specified θJA = 76°C/W. Failure to connect it degrades thermal performance, risking junction temperature exceedance during 50mA shunt operation, especially in enclosed or high-ambient environments.
How does the HBO output behave during NTC-induced float voltage reduction?
The HBO output of the LTC4071EDDB#TRMPBF references the effective float voltage (VFLOAT_EFF), not the base programmed value-so its rising threshold becomes VFLOAT_EFF – 40mV and falling threshold becomes VFLOAT_EFF – 140mV (40mV + 100mV hysteresis). For example, with ADJ = VCC and NTC indicating 55°C, VFLOAT_EFF = 4.000V, making HBO rise at 3.960V and fall at 3.860V-ensuring accurate state indication despite thermal adjustment.
