DescripTion
Li-Ion/Polymer Shunt
Battery Charger System with
Low Battery Disconnect
The LTC
®
4071 allows simple charging of Li-Ion/Polymer
batteries from very low current, intermittent or continuous
charging sources. A near-zero current low battery latch-
ing disconnect function protects even the lowest capacity
batteries from deep discharge and potentially irreparable
damage. The 550nA to 50mA operating current makes
charging possible from previously unusable sources. With
its low operating current the LTC4071 is well suited to
charge low capacity Li-Ion or thin film batteries in energy
harvesting applications. The unique architecture of the
LTC4071 allows for an extremely simple battery charger
solution, requiring just one external resistor.
The LTC4071 offers a pin selectable float voltage with ±1%
accuracy. The integrated thermal battery qualifier extends
battery lifetime and improves reliability by automatically
reducing the battery float voltage at NTC thermistor tem-
peratures above 40°C. The LTC4071 also provides two
pin selectable low battery disconnect levels and a high
battery status output.
The device is offered in two thermally enhanced packages,
a compact low profile (0.75mm) 8-lead (2mm × 3mm)
DFN and an 8-lead MSOP package.

pin FuncTions
NTCBIAS (Pin 1): NTC Bias Pin. Connect a resistor from
NTCBIAS to NTC, and a thermistor from NTC to GND. Float
NTCBIAS when not in use. Minimize parasitic capacitance
on this pin.
NTC (Pin 2): Input to the Negative Temperature Coefficient
Thermistor Monitoring Circuit. The NTC pin connects to
a negative temperature coefficient thermistor which is
typically co-packaged with the battery to determine the
temperature of the battery. If the battery temperature is too
high, the float voltage is reduced. Connect a low drift bias
resistor from NTCBIAS to NTC and a thermistor from NTC
to GND. When not in use, connect NTC to VCC. Minimize
parasitic capacitance on this pin.
ADJ (Pin 3): Float Voltage Adjust Pin. Connect ADJ to GND
to program 4.0V float voltage. Disconnect ADJ to program
4.1V float voltage. Connect ADJ to VCC to program 4.2V
float voltage. The float voltage is also adjusted by the NTC
thermistor.
HBO (Pin 4): High Battery Monitor Output (Active High).
HBO is a CMOS output that indicates that the battery is
almost fully charged and current is being shunted away
from VCC. This pin is driven high when VCC rises to within
VHBTH of the effective float voltage, VFLOAT_EFF. The absolute
value of this threshold depends on ADJ and NTC both of
which affect the float voltage. HBO is driven low when VCC
falls by more than (VHBTH + VHBHY) below the effective
float voltage. Refer to Table 1 for the effective float voltage.
LBSEL (Pin 5): Low Battery Disconnect Select Pin. Con-
nect LBSEL to GND to select a low battery disconnect
level of 3.2V, connect LBSEL to VCC to select a low battery
disconnect level of 2.7V. Do not float.
GND (Pin 6, Exposed Pad Pin 9): Ground. The exposed
package pad has no internal electrical connection but must
be connected to PCB ground for maximum heat transfer.
BAT (Pin 7): Battery Pin. Battery charge current is sourced
from VCC through this pin when an external supply is
present. BAT supplies current to VCC from this pin when
no other source of power is available. If BAT falls below
VLBD this pin disconnects the battery from VCC protecting
the battery from discharge by the load when no external
power supply is present.
VCC (Pin 8): Input Supply Pin. Attach system load to this
pin. The input supply voltage is regulated to 4.0V, 4.1V,
or 4.2V depending on the ADJ pin state (see the ADJ pin
description for more detail). This pin can sink up to 50mA
in order to keep the voltage regulation within accuracy
limits. Decouple to GND with a capacitor, CIN, of at least
0.1µF, use a larger decoupling cap to handle high peak
load currents.
LTC4071

4071fc
operaTion
block DiagraM
The LTC4071 provides a simple, reliable, and high per-
formance battery protection and charging solution by
preventing the battery voltage from exceeding a pro-
grammed level. Its shunt architecture requires just one
resistor from the input supply to charge and protect the
battery in a wide range of battery applications. When the
input supply is removed and the battery voltage is below
the high battery output threshold, the LTC4071 consumes
just 550nA from the battery. If the battery voltage falls
below the programmable low battery disconnect level,
the battery disconnects from VCC, protecting the battery
from over-discharge either by the load connected to VCC
or from the LTC4071 quiescent current.
When an input supply is present the battery charges
through the body diode of the internal disconnect PFET,
MP1, until the battery voltage rises above the low-
battery connect threshold. Select an input voltage large

enough for VCC to reach VLBC_VCC to ensure that MP1 turns
on. The user may detect the connected state by observing
periodic pulses at the NTCBIAS pin that only occur once
VCC has risen above VLBC_VCC, and cease once VCC falls
below VLBD. Depending on the capacity of the battery and
the input decoupling capacitor, the VCC voltage generally
falls to VBAT when MP1 turns on; rather than VBAT rising
to VCC. The internal PFET then reconnects the battery to
VCC and the charge rate is determined by the input voltage,
the battery voltage, and the input resistor:
ICHG =V
IN VBAT

RIN
As the battery voltage approaches the float voltage, the
LTC4071 shunts current away from the battery thereby
reducing the charge current. The LTC4071 can shunt up to
50mA. The shunt current limits the maximum charge current.

operaTion
In cases where the input supply may be shorted to GND
when not supplying power, for example with a solar cell, add
a diode in series with RIN to prevent the input from loading
the battery. For more information, refer to the photovoltaic
charger example in the Applications Information section.
Adjustable Float Voltage, VFLOAT
A built-in 3-state decoder connected to the ADJ pin pro-
vides three programmable float voltages: 4.0V, 4.1V, or
4.2V. The float voltage is programmed to 4.0V when ADJ
is tied to GND, 4.1V when ADJ is floating (disconnected),
and 4.2V when ADJ is tied to VCC. The state of the ADJ
pin (and NTC pins) is sampled for about 36µs about once
every 1.2 seconds when HBO is high, and when HBO is
low the sampling rate reduces to about once every 3.6
seconds with the same duty cycle. If VCC falls below
VLBD, the sampling stops. When it is being sampled, the
LTC4071 applies a relatively low impedance voltage at the
ADJ pin. This technique prevents low level board leakage
from corrupting the programmed float voltage.
NTC Qualified Float Voltage, ∆VFLOAT(NTC)
The NTC pin voltage is compared against an internal
resistor divider tied to the NTCBIAS pin. This divider has
tap points that are matched to the NTC thermistor resis-
tance/temperature conversion table for a Vishay curve 2
thermistor at temperatures of 40°C, 50°C, 60°C, and 70°C.
The curve 2 thermistor is also designated by a B25/85
value of 3490.
Battery temperature conditioning adjusts the float voltage
down to VFLOAT_EFF when the NTC thermistor indicates
that the battery temperature is too high. For a 10k curve 2
thermistor and a 10k NTCBIAS resistor, each 10°C increase
in temperature above 40°C causes the float voltage to drop
by a fixed amount, ∆VFLOAT(NTC), depending on ADJ. If ADJ
is at GND, the float voltage steps down by 50mV for each
10°C temperature increment. If ADJ is floating, the step
size is 75mV. And if ADJ is at VCC, the step size is 100mV.
Refer to Table 1 for the range of VFLOAT_EFF programming.

3.8V = VFLOAT_MIN = VFLOAT – 4 • ∆VFLOAT(NTC).
This occurs at NTC thermistor temperatures above 70°C,
or if the NTC pin is grounded.
To conserve power in the NTCBIAS and NTC resistors, the
NTCBIAS pin is sampled at a low duty cycle at the same
time that the ADJ pin state is sampled.
High Battery Status Output: HBO
The HBO pin pulls high when VCC rises to within VHBTH
of the programmed float voltage, VFLOAT_EFF, including
NTC qualified float voltage adjustments assuming VCC
has risen above VLBC_VCC.
If VCC drops below the float voltage by more than VHBTH +
VHBHY the HBO pin pulls low to indicate that the battery is
not at full charge. The input supply current to the LTC4071
drops to less than 550nA (typ) as the LTC4071 no longer
shunts current to protect the battery. And the NTCBIAS
sample clock slows to conserve power.
For example, if the NTC thermistor requires the float voltage
to be dropped by 100mV (ADJ = VCC and 0.29VNTCBIAS
< VNTC < 0.36VNTCBIAS) then the HBO rising threshold
is detected when VCC rises past:
VFLOAT ∆VFLOAT(NTC) – VHBTH
= 4.2V – 100mV – 40mV = 3.96V.

Low Battery Disconnect/Connect: LBD/LBC
The low battery disconnect (VLBD) and connect (VLBC) volt-
age levels are programmed by the LBSEL pin. As shown
in the Block Diagram the battery disconnects from VCC by
shutting off MP1 when the BAT voltage falls below VLBD.
This disconnect function protects Li-Ion batteries from
permanent damage due to deep discharge. If the voltage
of a Li-Ion cell drops below a certain level, the cell may be
permanently damaged. Disconnecting the battery from VCC
prevents the load at VCC as well as the LTC4071 quiescent
current from further discharging the battery.
Once disconnected the VCC voltage collapses towards
ground. When an input supply is reconnected the bat-
tery charges through the internal body diode of MP1.
The input supply voltage should be larger than VLBC_VCC
to ensure that MP1 is turned on. When the VCC voltage
reaches VLBC_VCC, MP1 turns on and connects VCC and
BAT. While disconnected, the BAT pin voltage is indirectly
sensed through MP1’s body diode. Therefore VLBC varies
with charge current and junction temperature. Please see
the Typical Performance Characteristics section for more
information.
Low Battery Select: LBSEL
The low battery discharge cutoff voltage level is pro-
grammed by the LBSEL pin.
The LBSEL pin allows the user to trade-off battery run-
time and maximum shelf life. A lower battery disconnect
threshold maximizes run time by allowing the battery to
fully discharge before the disconnect event. Conversely,
by increasing the low battery disconnect threshold more
capacity remains following the disconnect event which
extends the shelf life of the battery. For maximum run
time, tie LBSEL to VCC so that the battery disconnects at
VCC = 2.7V. For extended shelf life, tie LBSEL to GND so
that the battery disconnects at VCC = 3.2V. If a high peak
current event is expected, users may temporarily select
the lower disconnect threshold. This avoids disconnect-
ing the battery too early when the load works against the
battery series resistance and temporarily reduces VCC.

The charge current decreases as the battery voltage
increases. If the battery voltage is 40mV less than the
programmed float voltage the LTC4071 consumes only
550nA of current, and all of the excess input current flows
into the battery. As the battery voltage reaches the float
voltage, the LTC4071 shunts current from the wall adapter
and regulates the battery voltage to VFLOAT = VCC. The
more shunt current the LTC4071 sinks, the less charge
current the battery gets. Eventually, the LTC4071 shunts
all the current flowing through RIN; up to the maximum
shunt current. The maximum shunt current in this case,
with no NTC adjustment is determined by the input resistor
and is calculated as:

battery stacks as illustrated in Figure 3. Here two LTC4071
devices are used to charge two batteries in series. A
single resistor sets the maximum charge/shunt current.

General Charging Considerations
The LTC4071 uses a different charging methodology from
previous chargers. Most Li-Ion chargers terminate the
charging after a period of time. The LTC4071 does not have
a discrete charge termination. Extensive measurements
on Li-Ion cells show that the cell charge current drops
to very low levels with the shunt charge control circuit
effectively terminating the charge. For improved battery
lifetime choose 4.0V or 4.1V float voltage.
The battery disconnect function requires some care in se-
lecting the input supply compliance for charging a battery
while powering a load at VCC. The internal battery discon-
nect switch remains off while charging the battery through
the body diode of the internal switch until VCC exceeds
VLBC_VCC. If the source voltage compliance is not greater
than VLBC_VCC, then the battery will never re-connect to
VCC and the system load will not be able to run on battery
power. Users may detect that the battery is connected by
monitoring the NTCBIAS pin as it will periodically pulse
high once VCC has risen above VLBC_VCC, and stops pulsing
once VCC falls below VLBD.
The simplest application of the LTC4071 is shown in Fig-
ure 2. This application requires only an external resistor
to program the charge/shunt current. Assume the wall

The GND pin of the top device is simply connected to
the VCC pin of the bottom device. Care must be taken in
observing the HBO status output pin of the top device as
this signal is no longer ground referenced. Likewise for
the control inputs of the top device; tie ADJ and LBSEL
of the top device to the local GND or VCC pins. Also, the
wall adapter must have a high enough voltage rating to
charge both cells.
NTC Protection
The LTC4071 measures battery temperature with a negative
temperature coefficient thermistor thermally coupled to the
battery. NTC thermistors have temperature characteristics
which are specified in resistance-temperature conversion
tables. Internal NTC circuitry protects the battery from
excessive heat by reducing the float voltage for each
10°C rise in temperature above 40°C (assuming a Vishay
thermistor with a B25/85 value of 3490).
The LTC4071 uses a ratio of resistor values to measure
battery temperature. The LTC4071 contains an internal
fixed resistor voltage divider from NTCBIAS to GND with
four tap points; NTCTH1NTCTH4. The voltages at these
tap points are periodically compared against the voltage at
the NTC pin to measure battery temperature. To conserve
power, the battery temperature is measured periodically
by biasing the NTCBIAS pin to VCC about once every 1.5
seconds.
The voltage at the NTC pin depends on the ratio of NTC
thermistor value, RNTC, and a bias resistor, RNOM. Choose
RNOM equal to the value of the thermistor at 25°C. RNOM
is 10k for a Vishay NTHS0402N02N1002F thermistor with
a B25/85 value of 3490. RNOM must be connected from
NTCBIAS to NTC. The ratio of the NTC pin voltage to the
NTCBIAS voltage when it is pulsed to VCC is:
RNTC
RNTC +RNOM
( )
When the thermistor temperature rises, the resistance
drops; and the resistor divider between RNOM and the
thermistor lowers the voltage at the NTC pin.
An NTC thermistor with a different B25/85 value may also
be used with the LTC4071. However the temperature trip
points are shifted due to the higher negative temperature
coefficient of the thermistor. To correct for this difference
add a resistor, RFIX, in series with the thermistor to shift
the ratio:
R
FIX
+R
NTC
RFIX +RNTC +RNOM
( )
Up to the internal resistive divider tap points: NTCTH1
through NTCTH4. For a 100k thermistor with a B25/85
value of 3950, e.g. NTHS0402N01N1003F, at 70°C (with
RNOM = 100k) choose RFIX = 3.92k. The temperature trip
points are found by looking up the curve 1 thermistor R/T
values plus RFIX that correspond to the ratios for NTCTH1
= 36.5%, NTCTH2 = 29%, NTCTH3 = 22.8%, and NTCTH4
= 17.8%. Selecting RFIX = 3.92k results in trip points of
39.9°C, 49.4°C, 59.2°C and 69.6°C.
Another technique may be used without adding an ad-
ditional component. Instead decrease RNOM to adjust the
NTCTH thresholds for a given R/T thermistor profile. For
example, if RNOM = 88.7k (with the same 100k thermis-
tor) then the temperature trip points are 41.0°C, 49.8°C,
58.5°C and 67.3°C.
When using the NTC features of the LTC4071 it is important
to keep in mind that the maximum shunt current increases
as the float voltage, VFLOAT_EFF drops with NTC conditioning.
Reviewing the single-cell battery charger application with
a 12V wall adapter in Figure 2; the input resistor should be
increased to 165Ω such that the maximum shunt current
does not exceed 50mA at the lowest possible float voltage
due to NTC conditioning, VFLOAT_MIN = 3.8V.
Thermal Considerations
At maximum shunt current, the LTC4071 may dissipate up
to 205mW. The thermal dissipation of the package should
be taken into account when operating at maximum shunt
current so as not to exceed the absolute maximum junc-
tion temperature of the device. With θJA of 40°C/W, in the
MSOP package, at maximum shunt current of 50mA the
junction temperature rise is about 8°C above ambient.
With θJA of 76°C/W in the DFN package, at maximum
shunt current of 50mA the junction temperature rise is
about 16°C above ambient. The junction temperature, TJ,
is calculated depending on ambient temperature, TA, power

of the package (in °C/W):
TJ = TA + (PD × θJA).
The application shown in Figure 4 illustrates how to prevent
triggering the low-battery disconnect function under large
pulsed loads due to the high ESR of thin-film batteries.

age recovers, as the capacity of the battery should provide
roughly 50 hours of use for an equivalent 0.1%20mA =
20µA load. To prevent load pulses from tripping the low
battery disconnect, add a decoupling capacitor from VCC to
GND. The size of this capacitor can be calculated based on
how much margin is required from the LBD threshold as
well as the amplitude and pulse width of the load transient.
For a 1.0mAh battery with a state-of-charge of 3.8V, the
margin from LBD is 600mV with LBSEL tied to GND. For
a square-wave load pulse of 20mA with a pulse width of
5ms, the minimum size of the decoupling cap required to
hold VCC above LBD is calculated as follows:
CBYPASS =20mA 5ms
600mV =166.6µF
Take care to select a bypass capacitor with low leakage.
The LTC4071 can be used to charge a battery to a 4.2V
float voltage from an AC line with a bridge rectifier as
shown in the simple schematic in Figure 5. In this example,
Figure 4. Adding a Decoupling Capacitor
for Large Load Transients
Table 2 lists some thin-film batteries, their capacities
and their equivalent series resistance. The ESR causes
VBAT and VCC to droop as a product of the load current
amplitude multiplied by the ESR. This droop may trigger
the low-battery disconnect while the battery itself may
still have ample capacity. Adding a bypass capacitor to
VCC prevents large low duty cycle load transients from
pulling down on VCC.

the four input 249k resistors are sized for acceptable UL
leakage in the event that one of the resistors short. Here,
the LTC4071 will fully charge the battery from the AC line
while meeting the UL specification with 104µA of available
charge current.
A simple photovoltaic (PV) application for the LTC4071
is illustrated in Figure 6. At low VCC voltage, PV current
flows to both the system at VCC as well as the battery.
When VCC reaches the programmed float voltage (4.1V
with ADJ floating) then the LTC4071 shunts excess current
not used by the load, limiting VCC to 4.1V and effectively
reducing the battery charge current to zero. If the PV cells
stop supplying current, the battery supports the load at
VCC through the LTC4071. Add a diode in series with the
PV cells to prevent reverse leakage of the PV cells from
draining the battery. If the battery discharges to the point
where VCC falls below VLBD (3.2V with LBSEL tied to
GND) the LTC4071 disconnects the load from the battery
to protect the battery from over discharge.
Typically, solar cells are inherently limited in current, but
this circuit may require a resistor, RIN, in series with the
LTC4071 for high current solar cells. Select RIN such that
the LTC4071 never needs to shunt more than 50mA.
The simple schematic in Figure 7 illustrates a complete
piezoelectric energy harvesting application using the
LTC4071 to charge and protect Li-Ion cells along with the
LTC3588-1 to rectify and regulate energy generated from
a piezoelectric generator to a fixed 3.3V load.

This system has two modes of operation, charging where
the batteries are being charged from energy harvested from
the piezoelectric generator while the load is negligible.
And discharging, where the load is pulling current from
the batteries, but insufficient energy is being harvested
to power the load.
This application allows the load to periodically draw more
current than would otherwise be available from the piezo-
electric generator by storing excess charge in a stack of
two Li-Ion cells. Each Li-Ion cell is protected from over-
charge and over discharge by a LTC4071 shunt regulator.
The two LTC4071s regulate VIN of the LTC3588-1 to 8.2V
(with both ADJ pins floating) shunting any excess current
that is not used by the load once the batteries achieve
their float voltages. When the load requires more current
than is available from the piezoelectric generator, the
voltage at VIN droops and current is supplied from the two
Li-Ion cells to power the step-down switching regulator.
If the load pulls enough current to discharge the batteries
below VLBD, the LTC4071s disconnect the batteries, and
VIN collapses until the piezoelectric generator resumes
supplying current.
The application in Figure 8 illustrates how to implement
“ship-mode,” where a battery is co-packaged with the
LTC4071 and then the entire device is latched-off, leaving
the battery fully charged but with the LTC4071 switched off.
The co-packaged battery and LTC4071 can then be stored
with a long shelf-life before being activated for normal use.
Ship-mode is triggered by pulling enough current through
the LTC4071 so as to drop VCC below the LBD threshold.
The current pulse amplitude should be less than 400mA
with a duration of less than 10ms. The peak current neces-
sary, IPK, depends on the equivalent series resistance of
the battery, BESR, summed with the RDSON of the BAT-VCC
FET, the battery voltage, VBAT and the selected disconnect
voltage, VLBD:
IPK =VBAT
VLBD
RDSON +BESR
Users may test that ship mode has been triggered by
simply checking if VCC is at GND and that there are no
longer any NTCBIAS pulses.
Re-activation of the LTC4071 and the battery requires
either applying power normally, or briefly shorting VCC
to BAT to turn it on.
