Product details
Overview
LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF 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 (<0.1nA) 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 LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF datasheet, LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF pinout, LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF application, or LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-low ICCQ (550nA), ±1% VFLOAT accuracy over temperature, pin-selectable LBSEL thresholds, NTC-based thermal float voltage reduction, and DFN-8 (2mm × 3mm, 0.75mm height) package with exposed thermal pad.
Technical Context
The LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF implements a shunt-based charging architecture requiring only one external resistor (RIN) to set charge/shunt current. Its internal PFET (MP1) enables automatic battery reconnection when VCC rises above VLBC_VCC (3.6V or 4.19V), while HBO provides CMOS-compatible high-battery status with 40mV threshold and 100mV hysteresis.
NTC qualification uses pulsed 30–200µs NTCBIAS biasing at ~0.003% duty cycle to compare NTC voltage against four internal reference taps (NTCTH1–NTCTH4), enabling stepwise ∆VFLOAT(NTC) reduction of 50/75/100mV per 10°C above 40°C depending on ADJ state-ensuring battery safety without continuous power draw.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Current (ICCQ) | 550nA typical - enables multi-year operation from microampere-scale energy harvesters |
| Float Voltage Accuracy | ±1% over –40°C to 125°C - ensures reliable Li-ion cell voltage regulation across industrial environments |
| Max Shunt Current | 50mA - limits RIN power dissipation and sets maximum charge rate in single-resistor configurations |
| Low Battery Disconnect Leakage | <0.1nA - prevents deep discharge damage even in sub-µAh batteries over extended storage |
| NTC Float Adjustment Steps | 50mV/75mV/100mV per 10°C above 40°C - configurable via ADJ pin to match Vishay B25/85=3490 thermistor profiles |
| HBO Threshold Hysteresis | 100mV - prevents chatter during battery voltage transitions near full charge |
| Package Thermal Resistance (θJA) | 76°C/W - requires PCB thermal pad connection for safe 50mA shunt operation at elevated ambient |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic DFN (2mm × 3mm, 0.75mm height) with exposed thermal pad (Pin 9), rated for –40°C to 125°C junction temperature. Exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground for thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| NTCBIAS (1) | NTC bias reference source | Pulsed low-duty-cycle (~0.003%) VCC output for thermistor ratio measurement; minimizes self-heating and power loss |
| NTC (2) | Thermistor voltage input | Compares against internal divider taps (NTCTH1–NTCTH4) to trigger ∆VFLOAT(NTC) steps at 40/50/60/70°C |
| ADJ (3) | Float voltage programming input | 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 output active-high when 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; determines trade-off between runtime and shelf life |
| GND (6, 9) | Power and signal reference | Pin 6 = signal GND; Pin 9 = exposed thermal pad - electrically isolated but must connect to PCB GND for θJA = 76°C/W |
| BAT (7) | Battery terminal | Sources VCC when no input supply present; disconnects from VCC below VLBD to prevent over-discharge |
| VCC (8) | System load supply node | Regulated output (4.0/4.1/4.2V); sinks up to 50mA; decoupling capacitor ≥0.1µF required |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Single-resistor shunt charging | Eliminates need for external MOSFET, sense resistors, or control logic - reduces BOM count and layout area |
| Ultralow-power NTC qualification | 30–200µs pulses at ~1.2s intervals reduce average NTCBIAS current to 30–50pA - preserves battery capacity |
| Programmable low-battery disconnect | 2.7V or 3.2V thresholds selected by LBSEL pin - allows runtime vs. shelf-life optimization without firmware |
| Thermally enhanced DFN package | 0.75mm profile with exposed pad achieves 76°C/W θJA - supports 50mA shunt current in space-constrained designs |
| High-battery status with hysteresis | HBO asserts within 40mV of VFLOAT_EFF and releases only after 140mV drop - prevents false triggers during load transients |

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; no NTC qualification; fixed 4.2V float; 35µA quiescent current | Requires external thermistor circuit for thermal protection; unsuitable for sub-µA energy harvesting inputs | Select MAX1555 only for higher-current wall-adapter applications where NTC safety is handled externally |
| BQ29700 | Li-ion protector IC only (no charging function); 1.5µA IQ; fixed 2.5V/3.0V disconnect; no float voltage regulation | Must pair with separate charger; lacks integrated shunt regulation and HBO status output | Choose BQ29700 only when adding standalone protection to an existing charger design with independent VFLOAT control |

FAQ
What is the minimum input current required to operate the LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF?
The LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF operates with input currents as low as 550nA - its quiescent current - making it compatible with micropower energy harvesters. When charging, it can regulate battery voltage using input currents from 550nA up to 50mA, determined by the external RIN resistor value and input voltage headroom.
How does the LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF implement thermal protection without continuous power draw?
The LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF uses pulsed NTCBIAS biasing (30–200µs duration, ~0.003% duty cycle) to sample the NTC thermistor voltage intermittently. This reduces average NTCBIAS current to just 30–50pA while still enabling precise temperature-triggered float voltage reduction steps at 40°C, 50°C, 60°C, and 70°C.
Can the LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF be used with batteries other than Li-ion or Li-polymer?
No - the LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF is specifically designed for single-cell Li-ion and Li-polymer batteries. Its float voltage range (4.0V–4.2V), low-battery disconnect thresholds (2.7V/3.2V), and NTC qualification algorithm are calibrated for Li-based chemistries. Using it with NiMH, lead-acid, or LiFePO₄ would result in improper charging or protection.
What is the role of the exposed thermal pad (Pin 9) on the LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF DFN package?
The exposed thermal pad (Pin 9) on the LTC4071IDDB#TRPBF has no internal electrical connection but must be soldered to a PCB ground plane to achieve the specified θJA of 76°C/W. Without this connection, thermal resistance increases significantly, risking junction temperature exceedance during 50mA shunt operation.
How does the LBSEL pin affect system behavior beyond battery disconnect voltage?
The LBSEL pin directly sets both the low-battery disconnect (VLBD) and reconnect (VLBC_BAT/VLBC_VCC) thresholds. When LBSEL = GND (3.2V mode), VLBC_VCC = 4.19V; when LBSEL = VCC (2.7V mode), VLBC_VCC = 3.6V. This means the system load may experience longer brown-out periods before battery reconnection in 2.7V mode, impacting recovery time after input dropout.
