DS20005771A-page 9 MIC79050 4.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The MIC79050 is a high-accuracy, linear battery charging circuit designed for the simplest implementation of a single lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery charger. The part can operate from a regulated or unregulated power source, making it ideal for various applications. The MIC79050 can take an unregulated voltage source and provide an extremely accurate termination voltage. The output voltage varies only 0.75% from nominal over the standard temperature range for Li-ion battery charging (-5C to +60C). With a minimum of external components, an accurate constant-current charger can be designed to provide constant-current, constant-voltage charging for Li-ion cells. 4.1 4.4 Battery Output The BAT pin is the output of the MIC79050 and connects directly to the cell to provide charging current and voltage. When the input is left floating or grounded, the BAT pin limits reverse current to <12 A to minimize battery drain. Input Voltage The MIC79050 can operate with an input voltage up to 16V (20V absolute maximum), ideal for applications where the input voltage can float high, such as an unregulated wall adapter that obeys a load-line. Higher voltages can be sustained without any performance degradation to the output voltage. The line regulation of the device is typically 0.009%/V; that is, a 10V change on the input voltage corresponds to a 0.09% change in output voltage. 4.2 Enable The MIC79050 has an enable pin that allows the charger to be disabled when the battery is fully charged and the current drawn by the battery has approached a minimum and/or the maximum charging time has timed out. When disabled, the regulator output sinks a minimum of current with the battery voltage applied directly onto the output. This current is typically 12 A or less. 4.3 Feedback The feedback pin allows for external manipulation of the control loop. This node is connected to an external resistive divider network, which is connected to the internal error amplifier. This amplifier compares the voltage at the feedback pin to an internal voltage reference. The loop then corrects for changes in load current or input voltage by monitoring the output voltage and linearly controlling the drive to the large, PNP pass element. By externally controlling the voltage at the feedback pin the output can be disabled or forced to the input voltage. Pulling and holding the feedback pin low forces the output low. Holding the feedback pin high forces the pass element into saturation, where the output will be the input minus the saturation (dropout) voltage. DS20005771A-page 10 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MIC79050 5.0 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION 5.1 Simple Lithium-Ion Battery Charger the headroom needed above 4.2V for the MIC79050 to operate correctly. In other words, for a 500 mAh battery, the output of the semi-regulated supply should be between 225 mA to 500 mA (0.5C to 1C). If it is below 225 mA no damage will occur but the battery will take longer to charge. Figure 5-2 shows a typical wall adapter characteristic with an output current of 350 mA at 4.5V. This natural impedance of the wall adapter will limit the maximum current into the battery, so no external circuitry is needed to accomplish this. Figure 5-1 shows a simple, complete lithium-ion battery charger. The charging circuit comprises of a cheap wall adapter, with a load-line characteristic. This characteristic is always present with cheap adapters due to the internal impedance of the transformer windings. The load-line of the unregulated output should be less than 4.4V to 4.6V at somewhere between 0.5C to 1C of the battery under charge. This 4.4 to 4.6V value is an approximate number based on If extra impedance is needed to achieve the desired load-line, extra resistance can easily be added in series with the MIC79050 IN pin.

As soon as enough current is drawn out of the input source, which pulls the voltage lower than the VEOC, the end of charge flag will be pulled low and charging will initiate. Variations on this scheme can be implemented, such as the circuit shown in Figure 5-4. For those designs that have a zero impedance source, see Figure 5-5. See Figure 5-3. State A: Initial charge. Here the battery's charging current is limited by the wall adapter's natural impedance. The battery voltage approaches 4.2V. State B: Constant voltage charge. Here the battery voltage is at 4.2V 0.75% and the current is decaying in the battery. When the battery has reached approximately 1/10th of its 1C rating, the battery is 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.

Protected Constant-Current Charger Another form of charging is using a simple wall adapter that offers a fixed voltage at a controlled, maximum current rating. The output of a typical charger will source a fixed voltage at a maximum current unless that maximum current is exceeded. In the event that the maximum current is exceeded, the voltage will drop while maintaining that maximum current. Using an MIC79050 after this type of charger is ideal for lithium-ion battery charging. The only obstacle is end of charger termination. Using a simple differential amplifier and a similar comparator and reference circuit, similar to Figure 5-1, completes a single cell lithium-ion battery charger solution. DS20005771A-page 12 Figure 5-4 shows this solution in completion. The source is a fixed 5V source capable of a maximum of 400 mA of current. When the battery demands full current (fast charge), the source will provide only 400 mA and the input will be pulled down. The output of the MIC79050 will follow the input minus a small voltage drop. When the battery approaches full charge, the current will taper off. As the current across RS approaches 50 mA, the output of the differential amplifier (MIC7300) will approach 1.225V, the reference voltage set by the LM4041. When it drops below the reference voltage, the output of the comparator (MIC6270) will allow the base of Q1 to be pulled high through R2. 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MIC79050 5.4 Zero-Output Impedance Source Charging Input voltage sources that have very low output impedances can be a challenge due to the nature of the source. Using the circuit in Figure 5-5 will provide a constant-current and constant voltage charging algorithm with the appropriate end-of-charge termination. The main loop consists of an op-amp controlling the feedback pin through the schottky diode, D1. The charge current through RS is held constant by the op-amp circuit until the output draws less than the set charge-current. At this point, the output goes constant-voltage. When the current through RS gets to less than 50 mA, the difference amp output becomes less than the reference voltage of the MIC834 and the output pulls low. This sets the output of the MIC79050 less than nominal, stopping current flow and terminating charge.

Lithium-Ion Battery Charging 5.6 Time-Out Single lithium-ion cells are typically charged by providing a constant current and terminating the charge with constant voltage. The charge cycle must be initiated by ensuring that the battery is not in deep discharge. If the battery voltage is below 2.5V, it is commonly recommended to trickle charge the battery with 5 mA to 10 mA of current until the output is above 2.5V. At this point, the battery can be charged with constant current until it reaches its top off voltage (4.2V for a typical single lithium-ion cell) or a time-out occurs. The time-out aspect of lithium-ion battery charging can be added as a safety feature of the circuit. Often times this function is incorporated in the software portion of an application using a real-time clock to count out the maximum amount of time allowed in the charging cycle. When the maximum recommended charge time for the specific cell has been exceeded, the enable pin of the MIC79050 can be pulled low, and the output will float to the battery voltage, no longer providing current to the output. For the constant-voltage portion of the charging circuit, an extremely accurate termination voltage is highly recommended. The higher the accuracy of the termination circuit, the more energy the battery will store. Because lithium-ion cells do not exhibit a memory effect, less accurate termination does not harm the cell, but simply stores less usable energy in the battery. The charge cycle is completed by disabling the charge circuit after the termination current drops below a minimum recommended level, typically 50 mA or less, depending on the manufacturer's recommendation, or if the circuit times out. As a second option, the feedback pin of the MIC79050 can be modulated as in Figure 5-6. It shows a simple circuit where the MIC834, an integrated comparator and reference, monitors the battery voltage and disables the MIC79050 output after the voltage on the battery exceeds a set value. When the voltage decays below this set threshold, the MIC834 drives Q1 low allowing the MIC79050 to turn on again and provide current to the battery until it is fully charged. This form of pulse charging is an acceptable way of maintaining the full charge on a cell until it is ready to be used. 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.

Pulse Charging for Top-Off VIN=4.5V to 16V Charging Rate Lithium-ion cells are typically charged at rates that are fractional multiples of their rated capacity. The maximum varies between 1C and 1.3C (1x to 1.3x the capacity of the cell). The MIC79050 can be used for any cell size. The size of the cell and the current capability of the input source will determine the overall circuit charge rate. For example, a 1200 mAh battery charged with the MIC79050 can be charged at a maximum of 0.5C. There are no adverse effects to charging at lower charge rates; that charging will just take longer. Charging at rates greater than 1C are not recommended, nor do they decrease the charge time linearly. The MIC79050 is capable of providing 500 mA of current at its nominal rated output voltage of 4.2V. If the input is brought below the nominal output voltage, the output will follow the input, less the saturation voltage drop of the pass element. If the cell draws more than the maximum output current of the device, the output will be pulled low, charging the cell at 600 mA to 700 mA current. If the input is a fixed source with a low output impedance, this could lead to a large drop across the MIC79050 and excess heating. By driving the feedback pin with an external PWM circuit, the MIC79050 can be used to pulse charge the battery to reduce power dissipation and bring the device and the entire unit down to a lower operating temperature. Figure 5-7 and Figure 5-8 show typical configurations for PWM-based pulse-charging topologies. Figure 5-7 uses an external PWM signal to control the charger, while Figure 5-8 uses the MIC4417 as a low duty cycle oscillator to drive the base of Q1. Consult the battery manufacturer for optimal pulse-charging techniques.

Figure 5-9 shows another application to increase the output current capability of the MIC79050. By adding an external PNP power transistor, higher output current can be obtained while maintaining the same accuracy. The internal PNP now becomes the driver of a darlington array of PNP transistors, obtaining much higher output currents for applications where the charge rate of the battery is much higher.

Regulated Input Source Charging When providing a constant-current, constant-voltage, charger solution from a well-regulated adapter circuit, the MIC79050 can be used with external components to provide a constant voltage, constant-current charger solution. Figure 5-10 shows a configuration for a high-side battery charger circuit that monitors input current to the battery and allows a constant current charge that is accurately terminated with the MIC79050. The circuit works best with smaller batteries, charging at C rates in the 300 mA to 500 mA range. The MIC7300 op-amp compares the drop across a current sense resistor and compares that to a high-side voltage reference, the LM4041, pulling the feedback pin low when the circuit is in the 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MIC79050 constant-current mode. When the current through the resistor drops and the battery gets closer to full charge, the output of the op-amp rises and allows the internal feedback network of the regulator take over, regulating the output to 4.2V.

The total thermal resistance, JA, junction to ambient thermal resistance, is the limiting factor in calculating the maximum power dissipation capability of the device. Typically, the power SOIC-8 has a JC of 20C/W, this is significantly lower than the standard SOIC-8, which is typically 75C/W. CA is reduced because pins 5-8 can now be soldered directly to a ground plane, which significantly reduces the case to sink thermal resistance and sink to ambient thermal resistance. 80mV RS 0.01F SOIC-8 FIGURE 5-10: Constant-Current, Constant-Voltage Charger. Simple Charging The MIC79050 is available in a three-terminal package, allowing for extremely simple battery charging. When used with a current-limited, low-power input supply, the MIC79050-4.2YS completes a very simple, low-charge-rate, battery-charger circuit. It provides the accuracy required for termination, while a current-limited input supply offers the constant-current portion of the algorithm. 5.10 Thermal Considerations The MIC79050 is offered in three packages for the various applications. The SOT-223 is most thermally efficient of the three packages, with the power SOIC-8 and the power MSOP-8 following suit. 5.10.1 POWER SOIC-8 THERMAL CHARACTERISTICS One of the secrets of the MIC79050's performance is its power SOIC-8 package that features half the thermal resistance of a standard SOIC-8 package. Lower thermal resistance means more output current or higher input voltage for a given package size. Lower thermal resistance is achieved by joining the four ground leads with the die attach paddle to create a single-piece electrical and thermal conductor. This concept has been used by MOSFET manufacturers for years, proving very reliable and cost effective for the user. Thermal resistance consists of two main elements, JC, or thermal resistance junction to case and CA, thermal resistance case to ambient (Figure 5-11). JC is the resistance from the die to the leads of the package. CA is the resistance from the leads to the ambient air and it includes CS, thermal resistance case to sink, and SA, thermal resistance sink to ambient. Using the power SOIC-8 reduces the JC dramatically and allows 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. JA JC CA Ground Plane Heat Sink Area AMBIENT Printed Circuit Board FIGURE 5-11: Thermal Resistance. The MIC79050 is rated to a maximum junction temperature of +125C. It is important not to exceed this maximum junction temperature during operation of the device. To prevent this maximum junction temperature from being exceeded, the appropriate ground plane heat sink must be used. Figure 5-12 shows curves of copper area versus power dissipation, each trace corresponding to different temperature rises above ambient. From these curves, the minimum area of copper necessary for the part to operate safely can be determined. The maximum allowable temperature rise must be calculated to determine operation along which curve. 900 800 COPPER AREA (mm2 ) 5.9 700 TJ A = 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 0 0.25 0.50 0.75 1.00 1.25 1.50 POWER DISSIPATION (W) FIGURE 5-12: Copper Area vs. Power SOIC Power Dissipation (TJA). DS20005771A-page 15 MIC79050 T is calculated by taking the maximum junction temperature and subtracting the maximum ambient operating temperature. The JA of this package is ideally 63C/W, but it will vary depending upon the availability of copper ground plane to which it is attached. For example, if the maximum ambient temperature is +40C, the T is determined as follows: COPPER AREA (mm2 ) 900 EQUATION 5-1: T = 125C - 40C = 85C T = 125C J 700 85C 50C 25C 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 0 0.25 0.50 0.75 1.00 1.25 1.50 POWER DISSIPATION (W) Using Figure 5-12, the minimum amount of required copper can be determined based on the required power dissipation. Power dissipation in a linear regulator is calculated as follows: FIGURE 5-13: Copper Area vs. Power SOIC Power Dissipation (TA). EQUATION 5-2: 5.10.3 P D = V IN - V OUT I OUT + V IN I GND For example, using the charging circuit in Figure 5-10, assume the input is a fixed 5V and the output is pulled down to 4.2V at a charge current of 500 mA. The power dissipation in the MIC79050 is calculated as follows: EQUATION 5-3: The power MSOP-8 package follows the same idea as the power SOIC-8 package, using four ground leads with the die-attach paddle to create a single-piece electrical and thermal conductor, reducing thermal resistance and increasing power dissipation capability. The same method of determining the heat sink area used for the power SOIC-8 can be applied directly to the power MSOP-8. The same two curves showing power dissipation versus copper area are reproduced for the power-MSOP-8 and they can be applied identically. 5.10.4 P D = 5V - 4.2V 0.5A + 5V 0.012A = 0.460W From Figure 5-12, the minimum amount of copper required to operate this application at a T of +85C is less than 50 mm2. 5.10.2 QUICK METHOD Determine the power dissipation requirements for the design along with the maximum ambient temperature at which the device will be operated. Refer to Figure 5-13, which shows safe operating curves for three different ambient temperatures: +25C, +50C, and +85C. From these curves, the minimum amount of copper can be determined by knowing the maximum power dissipation required. If the maximum ambient temperature is +40C and the power dissipation is as above, 0.46W, the curve in Figure 5-13 shows that the required area of copper is 50 mm2. DS20005771A-page 16 POWER MSOP-8 THERMAL CHARACTERISTICS QUICK METHOD Determine the power dissipation requirements for the design along with the maximum ambient temperature at which the device will be operated. Refer to Figure 5-15, which shows safe operating curves for three different ambient temperatures, +25C, +50C, and +85C. From these curves, the minimum amount of copper can be determined by knowing the maximum power dissipation required. If the maximum ambient temperature is +25C and the power dissipation is 1W, the curve in Figure 5-15 shows that the required area of copper is 500 mm2, when using the power MSOP-8. 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. 900 900 800 800 COPPER AREA (mm2 ) COPPER AREA (mm2 ) MIC79050 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 0 700 T = 125C J 85C 50C 25C 600 500 400 300 200 100 0.25 0.50 0.75 1.00 1.25 1.50 POWER DISSIPATION (W) FIGURE 5-14: Copper Area vs. Power MSOP Power Dissipation (TJA). 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. 0 0 0.25 0.50 0.75 1.00 1.25 1.50 POWER DISSIPATION (W) FIGURE 5-15: Copper Area vs. Power MSOP Power Dissipation (TA).
