Product details
Overview
LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a USB power manager and linear Li-ion battery charger with integrated ideal diode controller. It delivers 3.95V float voltage, supports up to 1.2A programmable charge current, enforces 500mA/100mA input current limits via HPWR pin control, and operates in –40°C to +85°C for portable USB-powered devices requiring extended battery life at elevated temperatures.
For engineers reviewing the LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF datasheet, LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF pinout, LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF application, or LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed thermal regulation behavior, and real-world PowerPath™ transition timing - all specific to the LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF variant with no undervoltage current limit function.
Technical Context
The LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF implements a dual-path PowerPath™ architecture: one path regulates USB/wall adapter input current (programmable via CLPROG resistor and HPWR logic), while the other manages constant-current/constant-voltage charging of single-cell Li-ion batteries at 3.95V. Its internal 215mΩ ideal diode enables seamless BAT-to-OUT power delivery when input sources are absent or overloaded.
Unlike the LTC4085-3 variant, the LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF omits automatic output undervoltage charge current reduction - confirmed by the "No" entry under "UNDERVOLTAGE CURRENT LIMIT*" in the Options table. It retains full NTC thermistor monitoring, TIMER-based termination, and CHRG status output, with thermal regulation active above 105°C junction temperature.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar USB power management and Li-ion charging applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC4085EDE-3#TRPBF | Includes automatic output undervoltage current limit (reduces IBAT when VOUT < ~4.45V); otherwise identical pinout, specs, and 3.95V float | Required where system load causes VOUT droop during high-current USB operation | Select LTC4085EDE-3#TRPBF only if VOUT stability under dynamic load is critical; LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF is preferred for simpler designs |
| BQ24075RGTR | 4.2V float voltage; no ideal diode controller; lacks WALL/ACPR pins and NTC interface; uses different PROG scaling (1000V/RPROG) | Targeted at cost-sensitive consumer electronics without thermal monitoring or wall adapter detection | Choose BQ24075RGTR only for non-temperature-critical, single-source USB applications; not drop-in compatible |
Compared with LTC4085EDE-3#TRPBF, the LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF removes undervoltage current limiting but retains identical thermal safety, PowerPath™ control, and 3.95V battery longevity benefits; versus BQ24075RGTR, it offers superior system-level integration with ideal diode, wall adapter sensing, and NTC support - at higher BOM count but greater reliability in industrial environments.

FAQ
What is the key functional difference between LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF and LTC4085EDE-3#TRPBF?
The LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF omits the automatic output undervoltage current limit feature present in the LTC4085EDE-3#TRPBF. When VOUT falls below ~4.45V, the LTC4085EDE-3#TRPBF reduces charge current to maintain output regulation; the LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF does not perform this reduction. All other specifications - including 3.95V float voltage, NTC interface, TIMER accuracy, and PowerPath™ control - are identical between the two variants.
Does LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF support wall adapter input, and how is it detected?
Yes, LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF supports wall adapter input detection via the WALL pin (Pin 7). A voltage exceeding 4.25V (rising threshold) on this pin disconnects the IN-to-OUT power path and pulls the ACPR pin low to signal wall adapter presence. This prevents backfeed into the USB port and allows the device to prioritize wall adapter power while continuing to charge the battery - all without external components.
What is the maximum battery charge current achievable with LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF, and how is it set?
The LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF supports up to 1.2A battery charge current, set by connecting a resistor (RPROG) from PROG (Pin 12) to GND. The relationship is ICHG = 50,000V / RPROG. For example, a 100kΩ resistor yields 500mA (50,000 / 100,000 = 0.5A), while a 47kΩ resistor yields ~1.06A. The absolute maximum charge current is 1.5A, beyond which accuracy degrades per datasheet Note 8.
How does the ideal diode function operate in LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF during USB disconnect?
When USB power (IN) is removed, the LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF's internal ideal diode automatically connects BAT to OUT within microseconds. This occurs when VBAT exceeds VOUT by ~20mV, turning on the internal P-MOSFET. With the recommended 4.7μF output capacitor, VOUT droop remains <100mV during switchover - ensuring uninterrupted operation of downstream LDOs, regulators, or digital loads connected to the OUT pin.
Is thermal regulation active in LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF, and at what junction temperature does it engage?
Yes, thermal regulation is fully active in LTC4085EDE-4#TRPBF. When the die junction temperature reaches 105°C, the device enters constant-temperature mode and reduces charge current to maintain that temperature. This protects both the IC and the battery during high-ambient or high-power-charging conditions. The maximum allowable junction temperature is 110°C, with overtemperature protection triggering above that threshold.
