Product is End of Life 12/2014 Si9731 Vishay Siliconix P Controlled Battery Charger for 1-Cell Li-ion or 1-Cell to 3-Cell NiCd/NiMH Batteries DESCRIPTION FEATURES Si9731 is a chemistry independent battery charger designed to pulse charge 1-cell to 3-cell NiCd/NiMH or 1-cell Li-ion batteries. Battery charging is accomplished under direct control from the system processor. An internal low RDS(on) MOSFET can be pulsed on and off at varying duty cycle by the system processor to pulse charge the battery at high charge current while minimizing heat dissipation. Provision is also made to trickle charge a discharged battery until the battery is charged to a high enough voltage to wake up the processor so that the processor can take control of the charging process. For charging Li-ion batteries, Si9731 includes a precision voltage reference and an error amplifier for constant voltage (CV) charge mode. The Si9731 is available in lead (Pb)-free TSSOP-16 package and is classified over the industrial temperature range (- 40 C to + 85 C). * Pulse charges 1-cell Li-ion or 1-cell to 3-cell NiCd/NiMH batteries * Integrated MOSFETs with bi-directional reverse current blocking in "OFF" mode * PWM controlled fast charging mode * Low current trickle charge mode * Pin selectable 4.1 V or 4.2 V charge termination for Li-ion * Constant voltage (CV) termination for Li-ion * Input over-voltage detector with automatic shutdown * External shutdown * Under 1 A reverse battery leakage current in shutdown * Complete isolation from battery to external power supply in shutdown * Thermal shutdown * Minimum number of external components * ESD protection to 4 kV on charger input and battery output * TSSOP-16 package (1.2 mm maximum height) * Halogen-free according to IEC 61249-2-21 definition * Compliant to RoHS directive 2002/95/EC APPLICATIONS * Cellular phone battery charger * Personal digital assistants FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM VBAT VCHARGER ON/OFF Fast Charge Trickle Charge B a t t e r y TRICKLECHARGEENABLE CVMODE Charge Control 4.1/4.2 V_TAP FAST CHARGE GND Document Number: 71321 S09-2249Rev.

C, 26-Oct-09 www.vishay.com 7 Si9731 Vishay Siliconix DETAIL OPERATIONAL DESCRIPTION Si9731 is a chemistry independent battery charger designed for use with a system processor. For example, Si9731 can be integrated within a cellular phone whereby the fast charge and trickle (slow) charge modes can be software controlled by the DSP. The device is designed to charge 1-cell Li-ion or 1-cell to 3-cell NiCd/NiMH batteries. A regulated or unregulated external dc power source such as a wall adapter rated at typically 4.5 V to 12 V is connected to Si9731's VCHARGER input pin. Note that a typical low cost wall adaptor is comprised of a transformer, bridge rectifier and a reservoir capacitor. The wall adaptor's output voltage decreases linearly with increase in output current. When Si9731 is fast charging the battery, the wall adaptor's output voltage tracks the battery voltage plus the voltage drop across Q1 (charging current times MOSFET Q1's RDS(on), see Figure 1). The key features of Si9731 are described below. Since the under voltage lock out (UVLO) point of Si9731 is 2.6 V (typical), it is essential to keep the charger voltage above this level under all conditions, especially for fast charging of single cell NiCd/NiMH. One simple solution is adding a external resistor between VBAT+ pin and the battery, which creates extra voltage drop to elevate the charger voltage. The value of the resistor is affected by the output V-I characteristic of the ac charger. Trickle Charge The charge path is via N-Channel MOSFETs Q1 or Q2 (see applications circuit of Figure 1). Si9731 defaults to trickle (slow) charge mode if the battery voltage is too low to power the main processor. With the main processor unable to drive the MAINCHARGEEN pin as well as the TRICKLECHARGEEN pins, Q1 is turned "OFF" preventing fast charging. Meanwhile N-Channel MOSFET Q2 turns "ON" and establishes a trickle charge path from the external power source VCHARGER to the battery. The trickle charge current is set by an external current limiting resistor, Rext, and is approximately ITRICKLE = (VCHARGER - VBAT+)/Rext. Once the battery voltage charges up to minimum battery operating voltage 3.24 V, the internal latch is triggered and the CHARGERPOWER_ON output changes state to wake up the processor. The processor is now able to disable trickle charge mode by taking the TRICKLECHARGEEN pin high while taking control of fast charging via the MAINCHARGEEN pin. www.vishay.com 8 Fast Charge Fast charging is accomplished by the low "ON" resistance MOSFET, Q1. The application microprocessor is able to "Pulse Charge" the battery via the MAINCHARGEREN control input of Si9731. The processor monitors the battery voltage via the system A/D converter and varies the pulse charging duty cycle accordingly to maintain fast charging. Note that even though charging current may be sufficiently high, pulse charging with short "ON" time and long "OFF" time ensures that heat generation due to thermal heating is reduced. In the case of NiCd or NiMH batteries, one of several charge termination schemes may be used to terminate charge. For example, the processor may disable fast charging by sensing V or dV/dt at the VBAT+ output or by monitoring the temperature differential T of the battery. Following fast charge, trickle charge may be enabled to "top off" the battery. When charging a 1-cell Li-ion battery, fast charging will operate in two modes, constant current mode followed by constant voltage mode. In the constant current mode, a discharged Li-ion battery is charged with constant current available from the external dc source. The MOSFET pass transistor (Q1) may be pulsed "ON" and "OFF" at varying duty cycle by the control signal present at the MAINCHARGEEN input pin. Once the battery voltage reaches it's termination voltage of 4.1 V or 4.2 V (depending on the connection of the 4.1 VTAP), Si9731 may be placed in the "Constant Voltage" charging mode by taking the CVMODE pin high. Taking CVMODE pin high disables trickle charging and enables the internal battery voltage divider by turning ON Q5. Then the error amplifier will compare divided VBAT+ voltage against an internal precision 1.3 V bandgap reference voltage (see Figure 1). The output of the error amplifier drives the pass transistor Q1 to maintain VBAT+ at the regulated termination voltage. This operation is same as a linear regulator. True Load Disconnect Both the fast charge FET (Q1 in Figure 1) and trickle charge FET (Q2 in Figure 1) incorporate a floating body diode. In their "OFF" state both FETs block current bidirectionally. Note that because of the reverse blocking switches, a Schottky diode in series with the external VCHARGER power supply is not required. Document Number: 71321 S09-2249Rev. C, 26-Oct-09 Si9731 Vishay Siliconix DETAIL OPERATIONAL DESCRIPTION 4.1 VTAP Thermal Shutdown The Si9731's internal feedback resistors are set to provide 4.2 V charge termination at VBAT+ output if the 4.1 VTAP is left open circuit. Connecting the 4.1 VTAP to VBAT+ configures Si9731 for 4.1 V charge termination at VBAT+. This feature allows Si9731 to accommodate Li-ion batteries requiring 4.1 V or 4.2 V charge termination. Caution: the 4.1 VTAP should not be connected to ground or any other voltage source as this will cause the Si9731 to operate open loop and can result in over charging the battery! Si9731 also includes a thermal protection circuit that suspends charging through Q1 and Q2 when die temperature exceeds 130 C due to overheating. Once the die temperature cools to below 120 C, the charging will resume. Feedback Disconnect Switch The Si9731 includes a feedback disconnect switch (Q5 in Figure 1) connected in series with the device's internal feedback resistor string. The 42 k feedback resistor string is connected to ground when both the internal "OK to Charge" signal and the CVMODE pin are at logic high, providing feedback voltage to Si9731's error amplifier. This action helps prevent the Si9731 from discharging the battery. CHARGERPRESENT and CHARGERPOWERON Shutdown Si9731 can be completely turned off by applying 0.4 V or less to the device's ON/OFF pin. In shutdown mode, Si9731 draws less than 1 A quiescent current with charger voltage below UVLO, and draws 500 A when charger voltage is above UVLO. The device is enabled by applying 1.5 V to 12 V at the ON/OFF pin. In applications where the device will always remain enabled, the ON/OFF pin may be connected to the VCHARGER pin. Si9731's shutdown circuitry includes hysteresis, as such the device will operate properly even if a slow moving signal is applied to the ON/OFF pin. When the device is enabled, the battery voltage sense circuitry draws approximately 25 A from VBAT. OK to Charge (OTC) CHARGERPRESENT and CHARGERPOWERON are open drain outputs, each requiring an external pull-up resistor. pin goes low with CHARGERPRESENT CHARGERPRESENTIN pin goes high, signaling the processor that a charger has been inserted. Pin goes low when CHARGERPOWERON CHARGERPOWERONIN Pin is high, charger voltage is not in UVLO and the battery voltage has increased to above 3.24 V, turning on the system power supply since the battery has been charged up to minimum operating voltage. Input Over-Voltage Detector The external dc source connected to the VCHARGER pin should be at 12 V or less. In the unlikely event that the voltage at VCHARGER pin is at or above 12.8 V (typical), Si9731's internal over voltage detector will turn off MOSFETs Q1, Q2, and Q5 and disable charging. Si9731 also includes an internal signal that enables both trickle charge mode and fast charge mode operations, the "OK to Charge" (or OTC) signal. The OTC signal is at logic high if all of the following are satisfied: 1. Battery voltage is below 5 V 2. Charger voltage is greater than 2.6 V but below 12.8 V 3. VCHARGER > VBAT + 40 mV when MAINCHARGEEN = Low VCHARGER > VBAT - 40 mV when MAINCHARGEEN = High 4. ON/OFF pin is at logic high. In order to charge the battery in any manner, the OTC signal has to be high. Vishay Siliconix maintains worldwide manufacturing capability.
