High Input Voltage 600mA
Charger for Single-cell Li-Ion
Batteries
The MC34671 is a cost-effective fully-integrated battery charger for
Li-Ion or Li-Polymer batteries. The high input voltage, up to 28V,
eliminates the input over-voltage-protection circuit required in
handheld devices such as cell phones, Bluetooth accessories and MP3
players.
A typical charge cycle includes trickle, constant-current (CC) and
constant-voltage (CV) charge modes. The CC-mode current is
programmable up to 600mA with an external resistor. The voltage
across the external resistor is also used to monitor the actual charge
current. The constant voltage is fixed at 4.2V with 0.7% accuracy over
a -20°C to 70°C temperature range. The trickle-mode current is preset
to 20% of the CC-mode current when the battery voltage is lower than
the trickle-mode threshold. The end-of-charge (EOC) current threshold
is preset to 10% of the CC-mode current to save the board space and
cost. A charge current thermal foldback feature limits the charge
current when the IC internal temperature rises to a preset threshold.
The MC34671 also protects the system with its input over-voltage
protection (OVP) feature. In addition, the MC34671 has a 2.6V falling
power-on-reset (POR) threshold, making it perfect to work with current
limited power supplies. Three indication pins (PPR, CHG and FAST)
can be simply interfaced to a microprocessor or LEDs. When no power supply is connected, or when disabled, the charger draws
less than 1.0µA leakage current from the battery.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
The MC34671 is a fully-integrated Li-Ion and Li-Polymer
battery charger in a tiny package. It uses current, voltage and
temperature control loops to regulate the charge current. It
has up to a 28V input voltage rating, which makes the
handheld device safe even when connected to a wrong AC
adapter.
The MC34671 requires only two external capacitors and
one resistor to build a fully functional charger for space-
limited applications such as cell phones, Bluetooth
accessories and MP3 players. Its ultra high-accuracy
(±0.7%) output voltage and temperature-limited charging
current offer additional battery safety during charging.
The CC-mode current can be programmed with an
external resistor (RISET). The voltage across this resistor is
proportional to the charge current, so the system can monitor
the charge current during the whole charge cycle. The EOC
current threshold is preset to 10% of the CC-mode current.
For a deeply discharged battery with a voltage lower than
2.7V, the MC34671 charges the battery with a trickle-mode
current, which is 20% of the CC-mode current.
Three indication outputs make it easy to report the input
power status and the charge status to MCUs, or users via
LEDs.
FUNCTIONAL PIN DESCRIPTION
INPUT SUPPLY (VIN)
The supply input. This pin should be bypassed to ground
with a 1.0µF capacitor.
POWER PRESENT INDICATOR (PPR)
Open-drain logic output to indicate the input-power status.
The PPR pin output is only determined by the input voltage,
not other conditions such as the EN pin input. The output is
low if VIN is higher than VPOR. This pin is capable to sink at
least 12.0mA of current to drive an LED indicator.
CHARGE INDICATOR (CHG)
Open-drain logic output to indicate the charge status. The
output is low when the MC34671 is charging, until the EOC
conditions are reached. This pin is capable to sink at least
12.0mA of current to drive an LED indicator.
ENABLE (EN)
Active low enable logic Input. This pin is internally pulled to
ground by a weak current source. When left floating, the
charger is enabled. Pulling this pin to a high voltage,
externally disables the charger.
GROUND (GND)
Ground.
FAST CHARGE INDICATOR (FAST)
When charging, this open-drain logic output indicates
whether or not the battery voltage is higher than the trickle-
mode threshold. This pin is capable to sink more than 0.3mA
of current. When the charger is on, this pin outputs a logic low
signal if the battery voltage is higher than the trickle-mode
threshold. When the charger is in the shutdown mode or in
any fault conditions, this pin outputs a high-impedance.
CC-MODE CURRENT SETTING AND CHARGE
CURRENT MONITOR (ISET)
The CC-mode current, ICHG, is programmed by connecting
a resistor, RISET, between this pin and the ground. When
charging in the CC-mode, the voltage at this pin is 1.0V. The
voltage reduces proportionally as the charge current reduces
in the CV-mode. During the whole charge cycle, the voltage
at this pin can be used to monitor the charge current using the
following equation:
equ. 1
where IBAT is the actual charge current, ICHG is the
programmed CC-mode current, and VISET is the voltage of
the ISET pin during the whole charge cycle.
CHARGER OUTPUT (BAT)
Charger output pin. Connect this pin to the battery being
charged. Bypass to ground with a 2.2µF or higher capacitor.
EXPOSED PAD (EPAD)
Exposed pad. It must be soldered on the large ground
plane of the PCB to enhance the thermal conductivity. The
pad must be connected to GND electrically.

FUNCTIONAL INTERNAL BLOCK DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONAL INTERNAL BLOCK DESCRIPTION
Figure 20. 34671 Functional Internal Block Diagram
INTEGRATED SUPPLY
INTERNAL SUPPLY AND REFERENCE
This block steps down the high input voltage to a lower
voltage to power all the internal blocks. In addition, this block
generates the reference voltage for the charge control block.
SENSING AND CONTROL
VIN MONITOR
The input voltage monitor block monitors the input voltage
for two thresholds, power-on-reset (POR) and over-voltage
protection (OVP). If the input is lower than the POR or higher
than the OVP threshold, this block outputs a logic signal to
disable the charger.
CHARGE CONTROL
The charge-control block controls the gate voltage of the
power MOSFET to regulate the charge current, the battery
voltage, or the die temperature. It can also completely turn off
the power MOSFET to stop the current flow between the
input and the battery. Also, monitoring of the charge current
and the charger output voltage determines the trickle-charge
mode and the recharge cycle.
CURRENT SETTING AND MONITOR
This block programs the charge current in the constant-
current mode and monitors the actual charge current during
the whole charge cycle.
EOC (END OF CHARGE)
The EOC block monitors the charge current and the battery
voltage for the EOC conditions. Once the EOC conditions are
reached, this block outputs a logic signal to indicate the end
of the charge.
VIN-BAT COMPARATOR
The VIN-BAT comparator monitors the voltage difference
between the input voltage and the battery voltage. The input
voltage has to be higher than the battery voltage for the
charger to be enabled. If the input voltage falls below the
battery voltage, this block outputs a signal to disable the
charger to prevent the leakage current from the battery to the
input.
DIE TEMPERATURE FEEDBACK
The die temperature feedback block monitors the die
temperature. Once the die temperature reaches the
threshold temperature, the charge control block can reduce
the charge current to prevent further die temperature rise.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONAL INTERNAL BLOCK DESCRIPTION
LOGIC
LOGIC CONTROL AND STATUS INDICATION
The logic control block determines the on and off of the
charger. It takes the signals from the VIN Monitor, VIN-BAT
Comparator, EOC, and the external enable signal, and
determines the on and off states as well as the charge status
indication outputs of the charger (CHG, PPR, and FAST).
POWER MOSFET
The power MOSFET passes the charging current from the
input to the output.

CHARGE CYCLE
The MC34671 uses the standard charge profile with
trickle, constant-current (CC), and constant-voltage (CV)
charge modes, as shown in Figure 21. Both the CC and the
CV charge modes are also called fast-charge mode. When
the input voltage rises above an internal power-on-reset
threshold, the PPR pin outputs a low voltage to indicate the
power supply presence. The charger starts with the trickle-
charge mode until the battery voltage is above 2.7V. The
CHG pin outputs logic low voltage at the beginning of the
trickle-charge mode. If the battery voltage is unable to rise
due to a battery failure, charging will remain in the trickle-
charge mode. When the battery voltage reaches the 2.7V
threshold, the MC34671 softly changes to the CC-mode. The
soft transition minimizes the input voltage drop and reduces
the requirement of the input decoupling capacitance. In the
fast-charge mode, the FAST pin outputs a low voltage. When
the battery voltage reaches 4.2V, the MC34671 enters the
CV-mode and regulates the output voltage at 4.2V. The
charge current decreases gradually in the CV-mode. When
the current drops to the EOC current threshold, the MC34671
outputs logic high voltage at the CHG pin to indicate that the
charging is completed.
After the charging is completed, the MC34671 continues to
regulate the output to 4.2V, and monitors the output voltage.
If a load is in parallel with the battery, the charger continues
to output the current to the load even the charge is
completed. If the load current exceeds the programmed CC-
mode current, the battery will supply the additional current to
the load and the battery voltage will decline. Once the battery
voltage drops below the recharge voltage threshold, the
MC34671 returns to the fast-charge mode and indicates a
low voltage at the CHG pin.
When one of the following three conditions happens, the
MC34671 is disabled.
1. VIN > VOVP
2. VIN - VBAT < VOS
3. EN pin is high
where VOS is the offset voltage for the comparator that
monitors the input and the battery voltages.
Figure 22 shows the complete charge-cycle state
diagram.

voltage to monitor the actual charge current as given in
equ. 1 during the whole charging cycle.
CHARGE CURRENT LIMITATION
The charge current is limited by multiple factors.
When the voltage difference between the input and the
battery (VIN - VBAT) is low, (VIN - VBAT) / RDS(ON), where
RDS(ON) is the on resistance of the power MOSFET, may be
less than the programmed CC-mode current ICHG. The
charge current is limited by (VIN - VBAT) / RDS(ON) in this case.
When the voltage difference between the input and the
battery is too high, the large power dissipation may lead to
the charge current thermal foldback operation, due to the die
temperature regulation. The charge current is reduced to
prevent further temperature rise (See Charge Current
Thermal Foldback for more information).
DC INPUT VOLTAGE
The MC34671 accepts up to 28V DC input. When all of the
following conditions are satisfied, the input is in a power-good
range for the charger to start charging. The conditions
include:
1. VIN > VPOR
2. VIN - VBAT > VOS
3. VIN < VOVP
where VOS is the offset voltage for the comparator that
monitors the input and the battery voltages. The VOS is for
preventing the reverse leakage current from the battery when
the power supply is off. VOVP is the over-voltage protection
threshold. When the DC input voltage is above the over-
voltage protection threshold, the charger is disabled
internally. The 28V input voltage rating eliminates the need of
any additional input over-voltage protection circuitry.
CHARGE-ENABLE INPUT
The charge-enable input, EN, has a weak internal pull-
down current. Driving it to a low logic voltage, leaving it
floating, or shorting it to the ground, will enable the charger if
the input voltage is in the power-good range. Whenever the
EN pin is driven to a high logic voltage, the charger is
disabled.
INPUT POWER PRESENCE INDICATOR
When VIN is applied and the voltage is above the power-
on-reset voltage threshold (VPOR), the PPR pin outputs a low
voltage to indicate the input power presence. The PPR output
is only controlled by the input voltage. All other functions,
such as the EN pin, the over-voltage protection, and the VIN-
BAT comparator, do not affect the PPR output. The PPR pin
is capable to sink at least 12.0mA of current when outputting
a low voltage to drive an external LED.
CHARGE STATUS INDICATORS
The MC34671 has two charge status indicators, CHG and
FAST. CHG outputs a low voltage when the charger is
enabled and the charging is in progress. When the charge
cycle completes, CHG outputs high-impedance. If the
charger is disabled or the input voltage is out of the power-
good range, the CHG pin outputs high-impedance as well.
The CHG pin has at least 12.0mA of current-sinking
capability to drive an external LED, same as the PPR pin.
FAST indicates whether the MC34671 is in the fast-charge
mode or not. When the charger is on and the battery voltage
is higher than the trickle-mode threshold, the charger enters
the fast-charge mode and FAST outputs a low voltage. The
open-drain FAST pin requires a pull-up resistor to output the
logic signal. If the charger is in the trickle-charge mode or is
disabled, or when the input voltage is out of the power-good
range, the FAST pin outputs high-impedance.
CHARGE CURRENT THERMAL FOLDBACK
An internal thermal feedback loop begins to reduce the
charge current when the die temperature reaches 110°C to
prevent further temperature rise. This feature protects the
MC34671 from over-temperature failures and allows the user
to push the limits of the power handling capability of a given
circuit board without the risk of damaging the MC34671. The
charge current can be programmed according to the typical
(not the worst-case) ambient temperature with the assurance
that the charger will automatically reduce the current in worst-
case conditions.

INTRODUCTION
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
INTRODUCTION
INPUT CAPACITOR
The input capacitor is used to reduce the input voltage
transient that may cause instability. A 1.0µF, X5R, 16V-rated
ceramic capacitor is recommended for most applications.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR
For stable operation, an X5R ceramic capacitor with a
minimum 2.2µF nominal value is recommended at the output.
Depending on the load transient current, larger capacitance
may be required.
CC-MODE CURRENT SETTING
The CC-mode current can be programmed by the external
resistor, RISET. A 1% accuracy resistor is recommended to
guarantee 5% a current accuracy.
DROPOUT VOLTAGE
If the DC input voltage is too low, it may not maintain the
programmed CC-mode charge current due to the voltage
dropout over the power MOSFET. The worst-case of the
RDS(ON) is 700mΩ. The input voltage should be at least
higher than VBAT + ICHG x 700mΩ to guarantee the
programmed CC-mode current.
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
The MC34671 is available in a tiny 2x3 thermally-
enhanced UDFN package. A careful thermal design must be
considered. The exposed pad needs to be well soldered to a
large copper ground plane on the component layer. If the
component layer is space limited and does not allow for a
large copper plane, the thermal pad must be connected to
other ground layers through a via array. This allows
MC34671 to charge the battery with the maximum current,
while minimizing the die temperature.
APPLICATIONS
STAND-ALONE CHARGER
The MC34671 can be used in a stand-alone charger
without MCUs. Figure 23 shows such an application. The
green LED indicates the power presence and the red LED
indicates the charge status. In total, only 7 external
components are required.

MCU INTERFACED CHARGER
When the charger is used in handheld systems with MCU
control, the MC34671 uses PPR to report the DC input status
to the MCU. After the MCU pulls the EN pin to a logic low
voltage to start charging, the MC34671 reports the charge
status through CHG and FAST pins to the MCU. The MCU
can also monitor the charge current by measuring the voltage
at the ISET pin. Figure 24 is the typical application circuit.
