| FeaTures n n LTC3109 Auto-Polarity, Ultralow Voltage Step-Up Converter and Power Manager DescripTion The LTC(R)3109 is a highly integrated DC/DC converter ideal for harvesting surplus energy from extremely low input voltage sources such as TEGs (thermoelectric generators) and thermopiles. Its unique, proprietary autopolarity topology* allows it to operate from input voltages as low as 30mV, regardless of polarity. Using two compact step-up transformers and external energy storage elements, the LTC3109 provides a complete power management solution for wireless sensing and data acquisition. The 2.2V LDO can power an external microprocessor, while the main output can be programmed to one of four fixed voltages. The power good indicator signals that the main output is within regulation. A second output can be enabled by the host. A storage capacitor (or battery) can also be charged to provide power when the input voltage source is unavailable. Extremely low quiescent current and high efficiency maximizes the harvested energy available for the application. The LTC3109 is available in a small, thermally enhanced 20-lead (4mm x 4mm) QFN package and a 20-lead SSOP package.

Specifications over the -40C to 125C operating junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. The LTC3109I is guaranteed over the full -40C to 125C operating junction temperature range. Note that the maximum ambient temperature is determined by specific operating conditions in conjunction with 0.5 A ns Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime. Note 2: The LTC3109 is tested under pulsed load conditions such that TJ TA. The LTC3109E is guaranteed to meet specifications from 3109f LTC3109 elecTrical characTerisTics board layout, the rated thermal package thermal resistance and other environmental factors. The junction temperature (TJ) is calculated from the ambient temperature (TA) and power dissipation (PD) according to the formula: TJ = TA + (PD * JAC/W), where JA is the package thermal impedance. Note 3: Specification is guaranteed by design and not 100% tested in production. Note 4: Current measurements are made when the output is not switching. Note 5: Failure to solder the exposed backside of the QFN package to the PC board ground plane will result in a thermal resistance much higher than 37C/W. Note 6: The Absolute Maximum Rating is a DC rating. Under certain conditions in the applications shown, the peak AC voltage on the C2A and C2B pins may exceed 8V. This behavior is normal and acceptable because the current into the pin is limited by the impedance of the coupling capacitor. Typical perForMance characTerisTics TA = 25C, unless otherwise noted.

This unique capability enables energy harvesting from thermoelectric generators (TEGs) in applications where the temperature differential across the TEG may be of either (or unknown) polarity. It can also operate from low level AC sources. It is ideally suited for low power wireless sensors and other applications in which surplus energy harvesting is used to generate system power because traditional battery power is inconvenient or impractical. The LTC3109 is designed to manage the charging and regulation of multiple outputs in a system in which the average power draw is very low, but where periodic pulses of higher load current may be required. This is typical of wireless sensor applications, where the quiescent power draw is extremely low most of the time, except for transmit pulses when circuitry is powered up to make measurements and transmit data. The LTC3109 can also be used to trickle charge a standard capacitor, super capacitor or rechargeable battery, using energy harvested from a TEG or low level AC source. Resonant Oscillator The LTC3109 utilizes MOSFET switches to form a resonant step-up oscillator that can operate from an input of either polarity using external step-up transformers and small coupling capacitors. This allows it to boost input voltages as low as 30mV high enough to provide multiple regulated output voltages for powering other circuits. The frequency of oscillation is determined by the inductance of the transformer secondary winding, and is typically in the range of 10kHz to 100kHz. For input voltages as low as 30mV, transformers with a turns ratio of about 1:100 is recommended. For operation from higher input voltages, this ratio can be lower. See the Applications Information section for more information on selecting the transformers. Charge Pump and Rectifier The AC voltage produced on the secondary winding of the transformer is boosted and rectified using an external charge pump capacitor (from the secondary winding to pin C1A or C1B) and the rectifiers internal to the LTC3109. The rectifier circuit feeds current into the VAUX pin, providing charge to the external VAUX capacitor and the other outputs. VAUX The active circuits within the LTC3109 are powered from VAUX, which should be bypassed with a 1F minimum capacitor. Once VAUX exceeds 2.5V, the main VOUT is allowed to start charging. An internal shunt regulator limits the maximum voltage on VAUX to 5.25V typical. It shunts to ground any excess current into VAUX when there is no load on the converter or the input source is generating more power than is required by the load. This current should be limited to 15mA max. Voltage Reference The LTC3109 includes a precision, micropower reference, for accurate regulated output voltages. This reference becomes active as soon as VAUX exceeds 2V. Synchronous Rectifiers Once VAUX exceeds 2V, synchronous rectifiers in parallel with each of the internal rectifier diodes take over the job of rectifying the input voltage at pins C1A and C1B, improving efficiency. Low Dropout Linear Regulator (LDO) The LTC3109 includes a low current LDO to provide a regulated 2.2V output for powering low power processors or other low power ICs. The LDO is powered by the higher of VAUX or VOUT . This enables it to become active as soon as VAUX has charged to 2.3V, while the 3109f LTC3109 operaTion (Refer to the Block Diagram) VOUT storage capacitor is still charging. In the event of a step load on the LDO output, current can come from the main VOUT reservoir capacitor. The LDO requires a 2.2F ceramic capacitor for stability. Larger capacitor values can be used without limitation, but will increase the time it takes for all the outputs to charge up. The LDO output is current limited to 5mA minimum. VOUT The main output voltage on VOUT is charged from the VAUX supply, and is user-programmed to one of four regulated voltages using the voltage select pins VS1 and VS2, according to Table 2. Although the logic-threshold voltage for VS1 and VS2 is 0.85V typical, it is recommended that they be tied to ground or VAUX. Table 2 VS2 GND GND VAUX VAUX VS1 GND VAUX GND VAUX VOUT 2.35V 3.3V 4.1V 5V PGOOD A power good comparator monitors the VOUT voltage. The PGOOD pin is an open-drain output with a weak pullup (1M) to the LDO voltage. Once VOUT has charged to within 7.5% of its programmed voltage, the PGOOD output will go high. If VOUT drops more than 9% from its programmed voltage, PGOOD will go low. The PGOOD output is designed to drive a microprocessor or other chip I/O and is not intended to drive a higher current load such as an LED. The PGOOD pin can also be pulled low in a wire-OR configuration with other circuitry. VOUT2 VOUT2 is an output that can be turned on and off by the host using the VOUT2_EN pin. When enabled, VOUT2 is connected to VOUT through a 1 P-channel MOSFET switch. This output, controlled by a host processor, can be used to power external circuits such as sensors and amplifiers, that don't have a low power "sleep" or shutdown capability. VOUT2 can be used to power these circuits only when they are needed. Minimizing the amount of decoupling capacitance on VOUT2 enables it to be switched on and off faster, allowing shorter pulse times and therefore smaller duty cycles in applications such as a wireless sensor/transmitter. A small VOUT2 capacitor will also minimize the energy that will be wasted in charging the capacitor every time VOUT2 is enabled. VOUT2 has a current limiting circuit that limits the peak current to 0.3A typical. The VOUT2 enable input has a typical threshold of 1V with 100mV of hysteresis, making it logic compatible. If VOUT2_EN (which has an internal 5M pull-down resistor) is low, VOUT2 will be off. Driving VOUT2_EN high will turn on the VOUT2 output. Note that while VOUT2_EN is high, the current limiting circuitry for VOUT2 draws an extra 8A of quiescent current from VOUT . This added current draw has a negligible effect When the output voltage drops slightly below the regulated value, the charging current will be enabled as long as VAUX is greater than 2.5V. Once VOUT has reached the proper value, the charging current is turned off. The resulting ripple on VOUT is typically less than 20mV peak to peak . The internal programmable resistor divider, controlled by VS1 and VS2, sets VOUT , eliminating the need for very high value external resistors that are susceptible to noise pickup and board leakages. In a typical application, a reservoir capacitor (typically a few hundred microfarads) is connected to VOUT . As soon as VAUX exceeds 2.5V, the VOUT capacitor will begin to charge up to its regulated voltage. The current available to charge the capacitor will depend on the input voltage and transformer turns ratio, but is limited to about 15mA typical. Note that for very low input voltages, this current may be in the range of 1A to 1000A. 3109f 0 LTC3109 operaTion (Refer to the Block Diagram) on the application and capacitor sizing, since the load on the VOUT2 output, when enabled, is likely to be orders of magnitude higher than 8A. VSTORE The VSTORE output can be used to charge a large storage capacitor or rechargeable battery. Once VOUT has reached regulation, the VSTORE output will be allowed to charge up to the clamped VAUX voltage (5.25V typical). The storage element on VSTORE can then be used to power the system in the event that the input source is lost, or is unable to provide the current demanded by the VOUT , VOUT2 and LDO outputs. If VAUX drops below VSTORE, the LTC3109 will automatically draw current from the storage element. Note that it may take a long time to charge a large storage capacitor, depending on the input energy available and the loading on VOUT and VLDO. Since the maximum charging current available at the VSTORE output is limited to about 15mA, it can safely be used to trickle charge NiCd or NiMH batteries for energy storage when the input voltage is lost. Note that VSTORE is not intended to supply high pulse load currents to VOUT . Any pulse load on VOUT must be handled by the VOUT reservoir capacitor. Short-Circuit Protection All outputs of the LTC3109 are current limited to protect against short circuits to ground.

Time Not to Scale 3109f LTC3109 applicaTions inForMaTion INTRODUCTION The LTC3109 is designed to gather energy from very low input voltage sources and convert it to usable output voltages to power microprocessors, wireless transmitters and analog sensors. Its architecture is specifically tailored to applications where the input voltage polarity is unknown, or can change. This "auto-polarity" capability makes it ideally suited to energy harvesting applications using a TEG whose temperature differential may be of either polarity. Applications such as wireless sensors typically require much more peak power, and at higher voltages, than the input voltage source can produce. The LTC3109 is designed to accumulate and manage energy over a long period of time to enable short power pulses for acquiring and transmitting data. The pulses must occur at a low enough duty cycle that the total output energy during the pulse does not exceed the average source power integrated over the accumulation time between pulses. For many applications, this time between pulses could be seconds, minutes or hours. The PGOOD signal can be used to enable a sleeping microprocessor or other circuitry when VOUT reaches regulation, indicating that enough energy is available for a transmit pulse. INPUT VOLTAGE SOURCES The LTC3109 can operate from a number of low input voltage sources, such as Peltier cells (thermoelectric generators), or low level AC sources. The minimum input voltage required for a given application will depend on the transformer turns ratios, the load power required, and the internal DC resistance (ESR) of the voltage source. Lower ESR sources will allow operation from lower input voltages, and provide higher output power capability. For a given transformer turns ratio, there is a maximum recommended input voltage to avoid excessively high secondary voltages and power dissipation in the shunt regulator. It is recommended that the maximum input voltage times the turns ratio be less than 50. Note that a low ESR decoupling capacitor may be required across a DC input source to prevent large voltage droop and ripple caused by the source's ESR and the peak primary switching current (which can reach hundreds of milliamps). Since the input voltage may be of either polarity, a ceramic capacitor is recommended. PELTIER CELL (THERMOELECTRIC GENERATOR) A Peltier cell is made up of a large number of series-connected P-N junctions, sandwiched between two parallel ceramic plates. Although Peltier cells are often used as coolers by applying a DC voltage to their inputs, they will also generate a DC output voltage, using the Seebeck effect, when the two plates are at different temperatures. When used in this manner, they are referred to as thermoelectric generators (TEGs). The polarity of the output voltage will depend on the polarity of the temperature differential between the TEG plates. The magnitude of the output voltage is proportional to the magnitude of the temperature differential between the plates. The low voltage capability of the LTC3109 design allows it to operate from a typical TEG with temperature differentials as low as 1C of either polarity, making it ideal for harvesting energy in applications where a temperature difference exists between two surfaces or between a surface and the ambient temperature. The internal resistance (ESR) of most TEGs is in the range of 1 to 5, allowing for reasonable power transfer. The curves in Figure 2 show the open-circuit output voltage and maximum power transfer for a typical TEG with an ESR of 2, over a 20C range of temperature differential (of either polarity). 1000 TEG: 30mm SQUARE 127 COUPLES R=2 100 TEG MAXIMUM POUT - IDEAL (mW) TEG VOPEN-CIRCUIT (mV) 100 VOC MAX POUT (IDEAL) 10 10 1 1 1 10 dT (C) 0.1 100 3109 F02 Figure 2. Typical Performance of a Peltier Cell Acting as a Power Generator (TEG) 3109f LTC3109 applicaTions inForMaTion TEG LOAD MATCHING The LTC3109 was designed to present an input resistance (load) in the range of 2 to 10, depending on input voltage, transformer turns ratio and the C1A and C2A capacitor values (as shown in the Typical Performance curves). For a given turns ratio, as the input voltage drops, the input resistance increases. This feature allows the LTC3109 to optimize power transfer from sources with a few Ohms of source resistance, such as a typical TEG. Note that a lower source resistance will always provide more output current capability by providing a higher input voltage under load. Table 3.

In this configuration, energy can be harvested from either or both sources simultaneously. See the Typical Applications for an example. The LTC3109 can also be configured to operate from a single unipolar source, using a single step-up transformer, by ganging its VIN and SW pins together. In this manner, it can extract the most energy from very low resistance sources. See Figure 3 for an example of this configuration, along with the performance curves. PELTIER CELL (TEG) SUPPLIERS Peltier cells are available in a wide range of sizes and power capabilities, from less than 10mm square to over 50mm square. They are typically 2mm to 5mm in height. A list of some Peltier cell manufacturers is given in Table 3 and some recommended part numbers in Table 4. COMPONENT SELECTION Step-Up Transformer The turns ratio of the step-up transformers will determine how low the input voltage can be for the converter to start. Due to the auto-polarity architecture, two identical step-up transformers should be used, unless the temperature drop across the TEG is significantly different in one polarity, in which case the ratios may be different.

Other factors that affect performance are the resistance of the transformer windings and the inductance of the windings. Higher DC resistance will result in lower efficiency and higher start-up voltages. The secondary winding inductance will determine the resonant frequency of the oscillator, according to the formula below. Freq = 1 Hz 2 * * L SEC * C C1 CAPACITOR The charge pump capacitor that is connected from each transformer's secondary winding to the corresponding C1A and C1B pins has an effect on converter input resistance and maximum output current capability. Generally a minimum value of 1nF is recommended when operating from very low input voltages using a transformer with a ratio of 1:100. Capacitor values of 2.2nF to 10nF will provide higher output current at higher input voltages, however larger capacitor values can compromise performance when operating at low input voltage or with high resistance sources. For higher input voltages and lower turns ratios, the value of the C1 capacitor can be increased for higher output current capability. Refer to the Typical Applications examples for the recommended value for a given turns ratio. C2 CAPACITOR The C2 capacitors connect pins C2A and C2B to their respective transformer secondary windings. For most applications a capacitor value of 470pF is recommended. Smaller capacitor values tend to raise the minimum start-up voltage, and larger capacitor values can lower efficiency. Note that the C1 and C2 capacitors must have a voltage rating greater than the maximum input voltage times the transformer turns ratio. VOUT AND VSTORE CAPACITOR For pulsed load applications, the VOUT capacitor should be sized to provide the necessary current when the load is pulsed on. The capacitor value required will be dictated by the load current (ILOAD), the duration of the load pulse (tPULSE), and the amount of VOUT voltage droop the application can tolerate (VOUT). The capacitor must be rated for whatever voltage has been selected for VOUT by VS1 and VS2: COUT (F) ILOAD(mA ) * tPULSE(ms) VOUT ( V) where LSEC is the inductance of one of the secondary windings and C is the load capacitance on the secondary winding. This is comprised of the input capacitance at pin C2A or C2B, typically 70pF each, in parallel with the transformer secondary winding's shunt capacitance. The recommended resonant frequency is in the range of 10kHz to 100kHz. Note that loading will also affect the resonant frequency. See Table 5 for some recommended transformers. Table 5.

For applications where the resonant oscillator frequency exceeds 100kHz, or a transformer turns ratio of less than 1:20 is used, or the C1A and C1B capacitor values are greater than 68nF the , use of external charge pump rectifiers (1N4148 or 1N914 or equivalent) is recommended. See the Typical Application circuits for an example. Avoid the use of Schottky rectifiers, as their low forward voltage increases the minimum start-up voltage. 3109f LTC3109 applicaTions inForMaTion Note that there must be enough energy available from the input voltage source for VOUT to recharge the capacitor during the interval between load pulses (as discussed in Design Example 1). Reducing the duty cycle of the load pulse will allow operation with less input energy. The VSTORE capacitor may be of very large value (thousands of microfarads or even Farads), to provide energy storage at times when the input voltage is lost. Note that this capacitor can charge all the way to the VAUX clamp voltage of 5.25V typical (regardless of the settings for VOUT), so be sure that the holdup capacitor has a working voltage rating of at least 5.5V at the temperature that it will be used. The VSTORE input is not designed to provide high pulse load currents to VOUT . The current path from VSTORE to VOUT is limited to about 26mA max. The VSTORE capacitor can be sized using the following formula: CSTORE Note that storage capacitors requiring voltage balancing resistors are not recommended due to the steady-state current draw of the resistors. PCB LAYOUT GUIDELINES Due to the rather low switching frequency of the resonant converter and the low power levels involved, PCB layout is not as critical as with many other DC/DC converters. There are however, a number of things to consider. Due to the very low input voltages the circuit operates from, the connections to VIN, the primary of the transformers and the SW, VIN and GND pins of the LTC3109 should be designed to minimize voltage drop from stray resistance, and able to carry currents as high as 500mA. Any small voltage drop in the primary winding conduction path will lower efficiency and increase start-up voltage and capacitor charge time. Also, due to the low charge currents available at the outputs of the LTC3109, any sources of leakage current on the output voltage pins must be minimized. An example board layout is shown in Figure 4. (7A + IQ + ILDO + (IPULSE * tPULSE * f)) * tSTORE 2 5.25 - VOUT where 7A is the quiescent current of the LTC3109, IQ is the load on VOUT in between pulses, ILDO is the load on the LDO between pulses, IPULSE is the total load during the pulse, tPULSE is the duration of the pulse, f is the frequency of the pulses, tSTORE is the total storage time required and VOUT is the output voltage required. Note that for a programmed output voltage of 5V, the VSTORE capacitor cannot provide any beneficial storage time to VOUT . To minimize losses and capacitor charge time, all capacitors used for VOUT and VSTORE should be low leakage. See Table 6 for recommended storage capacitors. Table 6.

In these types of applications, the load is very small for a majority of the time (while the circuitry is in a low power sleep state), with pulses of load current occurring periodically during a transmit burst. The reservoir capacitor on VOUT supports the load during the transmit pulse; the long sleep time between pulses allows the LTC3109 to accumulate energy and recharge the capacitor (either from the input voltage source or the storage capacitor). A method for calculating the maximum rate at which the load pulses can occur for a given output current from the LTC3109 will also be shown. In this example, VOUT is set to 3.3V, and the maximum allowed voltage droop during a transmit pulse is 10%, or 0.33V. The duration of a transmit pulse is 5ms, with a total average current requirement of 20mA during the pulse. Given these factors, the minimum required capacitance on VOUT is: 20mA * 5ms COUT (F ) = 303F 0.33V Note that this equation neglects the effect of capacitor ESR on output voltage droop. For ceramic capacitors and low ESR tantalum capacitors, the ESR will have a negligible effect at these load currents. However, beware of the voltage coefficient of ceramic capacitors, especially those in small case sizes. This greatly reduces the effective capacitance when a DC bias is applied. A standard value of 330F could be used for COUT in this case. Note that the load current is the total current draw on VOUT , VOUT2 and VLDO, since the current for all of these outputs must come from VOUT during a pulse. Current contribution from the capacitor on VSTORE is not considered, since it may not be able to recharge between pulses. Also, it is assumed that the harvested charge current from the LTC3109 is negligible compared to the magnitude of the load current during the pulse. To calculate the maximum rate at which load pulses can occur, you must know how much charge current is available from the LTC3109 VOUT pin given the input voltage source being used. This number is best found empirically, since there are many factors affecting the efficiency of the converter. You must also know what the total load current is on VOUT during the sleep state (between pulses). Note that this must include any losses, such as storage capacitor leakage. Let's assume that the charge current available from the LTC3109 is 150A and the total current draw on VOUT and VLDO in the sleep state is 17A, including capacitor leakage. We'll also use the value of 330F for the VOUT capacitor. The maximum transmit rate (neglecting the duration of the transmit pulse, which is very short compared to the period) is then given by: T= 330F * 0.33V = 0.82 sec or fMAX = 1.2Hz 150A - 17A Therefore, in this application example, the circuit can support a 5ms transmit pulse of 20mA every 0.82 seconds. It can be seen that for systems that only need to transmit every few seconds (or minutes or hours), the average charge current required is extremely small, as long as the sleep or standby current is low. Even if the available charge current in the example above was only 21A, if the sleep current was only 5A, it could still transmit a pulse every seven seconds. The following formula will allow you to calculate the time it will take to charge the LDO output capacitor and the VOUT capacitor the first time, from zero volts. Here again, the charge current available from the LTC3109 must be known. For this calculation, it is assumed that the LDO output capacitor is 2.2F: tLDO = 2.2V * 2.2F ICHG - ILDO If there was 150A of charge current available and a 5A load on the LDO (when the processor is sleeping), the time for the LDO to reach regulation would be only 33ms. 3109f LTC3109 applicaTions inForMaTion The time for VOUT to charge and reach regulation can be calculated by the formula below, which assumes VOUT is programmed to 3.3V and COUT is 330F: t VOUT = 3.3V * 330F +t ICHG - IVOUT - ILDO LDO In this example, IQ is 5A, IPULSE is 100mA, tPULSE is 5ms and T is one hour. The average charge current required from the LTC3109 would be: ICHG 5A + 100mA * 0.005 sec = 5.14A 3600 sec With 150A of charge current available and 5A of load on both VOUT and VLDO, the time for VOUT to reach regulation after the initial application of power would be 7.81 seconds. DESIGN EXAMPLE 2 In most pulsed-load applications, the duration, magnitude and frequency of the load current pulses are known and fixed. In these cases, the average charge current required from the LTC3109 to support the average load must be calculated, which can be easily done by the following: ICHG IQ + IPULSE * tPULSE T Therefore, if the LTC3109 has an input voltage that allows it to supply a charge current greater than just 5.14A, the application can support 100mA pulses lasting 5ms every hour. It can be seen that the sleep current of 5A is the dominant factor in this example, because the transmit duty cycle is so small (0.00014%). Note that for a VOUT of 3.3V, the average power required by this application is only 17W (not including converter losses). Keep in mind that the charge current available from the LTC3109 has no effect on the sizing of the VOUT capacitor, and the VOUT capacitor has no effect on the maximum allowed pulse rate. where IQ is the sleep current supplied by VOUT and VLDO to the external circuitry in-between load pulses, including output capacitor leakage, IPULSE is the total load current during the pulse, tPULSE is the duration of the load pulse and T is the pulse period (essentially the time between load pulses). 3109f LTC3109 Typical applicaTions Energy Harvester Operates from Small Temperature Differentials of Either Polarity TEG (THERMOELECTRIC GENERATOR) T1 30mV TO 500mV 1:100 1nF * * C1A 470pF C2A SWA VINA C1B 470pF C2B VOUT2 VOUT VLDO OPTIONAL SWITCHED OUTPUT FOR SENSORS 3.3V 2.2V 2.2F + 470F LOW POWER RADIO * T2 1:100 1nF LTC3109 P PG00D * SENSOR(S) SWB VOUT2_EN VINB VS1 VSTORE VAUX VS2 GND 5.25V 1F + CSTORE 3109 TA02 T1, T2: COILCRAFT LPR6235-752SML 3109f LTC3109 Typical applicaTions Li-Ion Battery Charger and LDO Operates from a Low Level AC Input 50mV TO 300mV RMS T1 1:100 1nF * AC 60Hz * C1A 470pF C2A SWA VINA C1B 470pF C2B VOUT2 VOUT VLDO 2.2V VLDO FAIRCHILD 2.2F FDG328P 4.1V TO LOAD LTC4070* HBO LBO NTC VCC NC ADJ GND DRV NTCBIAS * T2 1:100 1nF NC NC NC LTC3109 * + PG00D SWB VOUT2_EN VINB VS1 VSTORE VAUX VS2 GND 3109 TA03 Li-Ion BATTERY T1, T2: COILCRAFT LPR6235-752SML 1F *THE LTC4070 IS A PRECISION BATTERY CHARGER OFFERING UNDERVOLTAGE PROTECTION, WITH A TYPICAL SUPPLY CURRENT OF ONLY 0.45A Unipolar Energy Harvester Charges Battery Backup THERMOELECTIC GENERATOR FERROTEC 9500/127/100B T1 1:50 33nF + - 47F * * C1A 1nF C2A 330k VOUT2 VOUT LTC3109 2.2V 2.2F PGOOD VOUT 3.3V + VLDO 330F 4V T1: COILCRAFT LPR6235-123QML Typical PVOUT vs dT for Unipolar Configuration 5.0 4.5 4.0 3.5 POUT (mW) 3.0 2.5 2.0 1.5 1.0 0.5 0 0 1 2 3 4 56 dT (K) 7 8 9 10 FERROTEC 9500/127/100B C1 = 33nF T1 = COILCRAFT LPR6235-123QML 1:50 RATIO VOUT = 3.3V VLDO SWA VINA C1B C2B PG00D SWB VOUT2_EN VINB VS1 VSTORE VAUX VS2 GND 1F FAIRCHILD FDG328P 4.1V LTC4070 HBO LBO NTC VCC ADJ GND 3109 TA06a NC NC NC DRV NTCBIAS + NC Li-Ion BATTERY 3109 TA06b 3109f 0 LTC3109 Typical applicaTions Dual-Input Energy Harvester Generates 5V and 2.2V from Either or Both TEGs, Operating at Different Temperatures of Fixed Polarity COILCRAFT LPR6235-752SML 1:100 1nF C1A 470pF C2A SWA VINA VLDO C1B 2.2V 2.2F VOUT2 LTC3109 VOUT 5V VOUT COUT* VLDO THERMOELECTRIC GENERATOR 25mV TO 500mV + - * * + THERMOELECTRIC GENERATOR OR THERMOPILE 35mV TO 1000mV + - COILCRAFT LPR6235-123QML 4.7nF 1:50 * * 470pF C2B PG00D SWB VOUT2_EN VINB VS1 VS2 VSTORE VAUX GND 3109 TA04 PG00D 1F *THE VALUE OF THE COUT CAPACITOR IS DETEMINED BY THE LOAD CHARACTERISTICS 3109f LTC3109 package DescripTion (Reference LTC DWG # 05-08-1710 Rev A) UF Package 20-Lead Plastic QFN (4mm x 4mm) 0.70 0.05 4.50 0.05 3.10 0.05 2.00 REF 2.45 0.05 2.45 0.05 PACKAGE OUTLINE 0.25 0.05 0.50 BSC RECOMMENDED SOLDER PAD PITCH AND DIMENSIONS APPLY SOLDER MASK TO AREAS THAT ARE NOT SOLDERED 4.00 PIN 1 TOP MARK (NOTE 6) 2.00 REF 2.45 0.10 0.10 0.75 0.05 R = 0.05 TYP BOTTOM VIEW--EXPOSED PAD R = 0.115 TYP PIN 1 NOTCH R = 0.20 TYP OR 0.35 45 CHAMFER 19 20 0.40 1 2 0.10 4.00 0.10 2.45 0.10 (UF20) QFN 01-07 REV A 0.200 REF 0.00 - 0.05 NOTE: 1.
