  1 for more information www.linear.com/LTC4120 typical application features description wireless power receiver and 400ma buck battery charger the lt c ? 4120 is a constant- current/ constant- voltage wireless receiver and battery charger. an external program - ming resistor sets the charge current up to 400 ma. the programmable float voltage of the LTC4120 accommodates several battery chemistries. the LTC4120 uses a dynamic harmonization control (dhc) technique that allows high efficiency contactless charging across an air gap. the LTC4120 regulates its input voltage via the dhc pin. this technique modulates the resonant frequency of a receiver tank to automatically adjust the power received as well as the power transmitted to provide an efficient solution for wirelessly charging battery-powered devices. wireless charging with the LTC4120 provides a method to power devices in harsh environments without requiring expensive failure-prone connectors. this allows products to be charged while locked within sealed enclosures, or in moving or rotating equipment, or where cleanliness or sanitation is critical. this full featured battery charger includes accurate run pin threshold, low voltage battery preconditioning and bad battery fault detection, timer termination, auto-recharge, and ntc temperature qualified charging. the fault pin provides an indication of bad battery or temperature faults. once charging is terminated, the LTC4120 signals end-of- charge via the chrg pin, and enters a low current sleep mode. an auto-restart feature starts a new charging cycle if the battery voltage drops by 2.5%. applications n dynamic harmonization control optimizes wireless charging over a wide coupling range n wide input voltage range: 4.3v to 40v n adjustable float voltage: 3.5v to 11v n 50ma to 400ma charge current programmed with a single resistor n 1% feedback v oltage accuracy n programmable 5% accurate charge current n no microprocessor required n no transformer core n thermally enhanced, low profile 16-lead (3mm 3mm 0.75mm) qfn package n handheld instruments n industrial/military sensors and devices n harsh environments n portable medical devices n physically small devices n electrically isolated devices l, lt , lt c , lt m , linear technology, the linear logo and burst mode are registered trademarks of linear technology corporation. all other trademarks are the property of their respective owners. + intv cc in freq run boost sw chgsns ntc dhc fault chrg 3.01k 10f t 4120 ta01a li-ion 4.2v 22nf 26.7nf 6.5nf 47h 5h tx circuitry 10f 2.2f 33h fb prog fbg LTC4120 gnd bat 1.01m 1.35m wireless rx voltage/charge current vs spacing spacing (cm) 0.4 v in(rx) (v) charge current (ma) 30 35 40 1.0 1.4 4120 ta01b 25 20 0.6 0.8 1.2 1.6 1.8 v in 15 10 200 267 333 400 133 67 0 i charge max not charging charging 4120fb ltc 4120

8 for more information www.linear.com/LTC4120 pin functions intv cc (pin 1): internal regulator output pin. this pin is the output of an internal linear regulator that generates the internal intv cc supply from in. it also supplies power to the switch gate drivers and the low battery linear charge current i lowbat . connect a 2.2 f low esr capacitor from intv cc to gnd. do not place any external load on intv cc other than the ntc bias network. when the run pin is above v en , and intv cc rises above the uvlo threshold, and in rises above bat by ?v duvlo and its hysteresis, the charger is enabled. boost (pin 2): boosted supply pin. connect a 22 nf boost capacitor from this pin to the sw pin. in (pin 3): positive input power supply. decouple to gnd with a 10f or larger low esr capacitor. sw (pin 4): switch pin. the sw pin delivers power from in to bat via the step-down switching regulator. an in - ductor should be connected from sw to chgsns. see the applications information section for a discussion of inductor selection. gnd (pin 5, exposed pad pin 17): ground pin. connect to exposed pad. the exposed pad must be soldered to pcb gnd to provide a low electrical and thermal impedance connection to ground. dhc ( pin 6): dynamic harmonization control pin. connect a schottky diode from the dhc pin to the in pin, and a capacitor from the dhc pin as shown in the typical ap - plication or the block diagram. when v in is greater than v in(dhc) , this pin is high impedance. when v in is below v in(dhc) this pin is low impedance allowing the LTC4120 to modulate the resonance of the tuned receiver network. see applications information for more information on the tuned receiver network. freq (pin 7): buck switching frequency select input pin. connect to intv cc to select a 1.5 mhz switching frequency or gnd to select a 750khz switching frequency. do not float. chgsns (pin 8): battery charge current sense pin. an internal current sense resistor between chgsns and bat pins monitors battery charge current. an inductor should be connected from sw to chgsns. b at (pin 9): battery output pin. battery charge current is delivered from this pin through the internal charge current sense resistor. in low battery conditions a small linear charge current, i lowbat , is sourced from this pin to precondition the battery. decouple the bat pin with a low esr 10f or greater ceramic capacitor to gnd. fb ( pin 10): battery voltage feedback pin. the charge function operates to achieve a final float voltage of 2.4v at this pin. battery float voltage is programmed using a resistive divider from bat to fb to fbg, and can be pro - grammed up to 11 v. the feedback pin input bias current, i fb , is 15 na. using a resistive divider with a thevenin equivalent resistance of 588 k compensates for input bias current error ( see curve of fb pin bias current versus temperature in the typical performance characteristics). fbg (pin 11): feedback ground pin. this pin disconnects the external fb divider load from the battery when it is not needed. when sensing the battery voltage this pin pres - ents a low resistance, r fbg , to gnd. when in disabled or shutdown modes this pin is high impedance. ntc ( pin 12): 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 if the battery is too hot or too cold to charge. if the batterys temperature is out of range, the LTC4120 enters standby mode and charging is paused until the battery tempera- ture re -enters the valid range. a low drift bias resistor is required from intv cc to ntc and a thermistor is required from ntc to gnd. tie the ntc pin to gnd to disable ntc qualified charging if ntc functionality is not required. 4120fb ltc 4120
9 for more information www.linear.com/LTC4120 pin functions prog (pin 13): charge current program and charge current monitor pin. connect a 1% resistor between 3.01k (400 ma) and 24.3k (50 ma) from prog to ground to program the charge current. while in constant-current mode, this pin regulates to 1.227 v. the voltage at this pin represents the average battery charge current using the following formula: i bat = h prog ? v prog r prog where h prog is typically 988. keep parasitic capacitance on the prog pin to a minimum. chrg (pin 14): open-drain charge status output pin. typically pulled up through a resistor to a reference voltage, the chrg pin indicates the status of the battery charger. the pin can be pulled up to voltages as high as in when disabled, and can sink currents up to 5 ma when enabled. when the battery is being charged, the chrg pin is pulled low. when the termination timer expires or the charge current drops below 10% of the programmed value, the chrg pin is forced to a high impedance state. fault (pin 15): open-drain fault status output pin. typi - cally pulled up through a resistor to a reference voltage, this status pin indicates fault conditions during a charge cycle. the pin can be pulled up to voltages as high as in when disabled, and can sink currents up to 5 ma when enabled. an ntc temperature fault causes this pin to be pulled low. a bad battery fault also causes this pin to be pulled low. if no fault conditions exist, the fault pin remains high impedance. run (pin 16): run pin. when run is pulled below v en and its hysteresis, the device is disabled. in disabled mode, battery charge current is zero and the chrg and fault pins assume high impedance states. if the voltage at run is pulled below v sd , the device is in shutdown mode. when the voltage at the run pin rises above v en , the intv cc ldo turns on. when the intv cc ldo rises above its uvlo threshold the charger is enabled. the run pin should be tied to a resistive divider from v in to program the input voltage at which charging is enabled. do not float the run pin. 4120fb ltc 4120

16 for more information www.linear.com/LTC4120 operation ntc thermal battery protection the LTC4120 monitors battery temperature using a therm - istor during the charging cycle. if the battery temperature moves outside a safe charging range, the ic suspends charging and signals a fault condition until the tempera - ture returns to the safe charging range. the safe charging range is determined by two comparators that monitor the voltage at the ntc pin. ntc qualified charging is disabled if the ntc pin is pulled below about 85mv (v dis ). thermistor manufacturers usually include either a tem- perature lookup table identified with a characteristic curve number, or a formula relating temperature to the resistor value. each thermistor is also typically designated by a thermistor gain value b 25/85 . the ntc pin should be connected to a voltage divider from intv cc to gnd as shown in figure 6. in the simple application (r adj = 0) a 1% resistor, r bias , with a value equal to the resistance of the thermistor at 25 c is connected from intv cc to ntc, and a thermistor is con- nected from ntc to gnd. with this setup, the LTC4120 pauses charging when the resistance of the thermistor increases to 285% of the r bias resistor as the tempera- ture drops . for a vishay curve 2 thermistor with b 25/85 = 3490 and 25 c resistance of 10 k, this corresponds to a temperature of about 0 c. the LTC4120 also pauses charging if the thermistor resistance decreases to 57.5% of the r bias resistor. for the same vishay curve 2 therm- istor, this corresponds to approximately 40 c. with a vishay curve ?2 thermistor, the hot and cold comparators both have about 2 c of hysteresis to prevent oscillations about the trip points. the hot and cold trip points may be adjusted using a differ- ent type of thermistor, or a different r bias resistor, or by adding a desensitizing resistor, r adj , or by a combination of these measures as shown in figure 7. for example, by increasing r bias to 12.4 k, with the same thermistor as before, the cold trip point moves down to C5 c, and the hot trip point moves down to 34 c. if a vishay curve 1 thermistor with b 25/85 = 3950 and resistance of 100 k at 25c is used, a 1% r bias resistor of 118 k and a 1% r adj resistor of 12.1 k results in a cold trip point of 0 c, and a hot trip point of 39c. end-of-charge indication and safety timeout the LTC4120 uses a safety timer to terminate charging . whenever the LTC4120 is in constant current mode the timer is paused, and if fb transitions through the rechg threshold the timer is reset. when the battery voltage reaches the float voltage, a safety timer begins counting down a 2- hour timeout. if charge current falls below one- tenth of the programmed maximum charge current, the chrg status pin rises, but top-off charge current contin - ues to flow until the timer finishes. after the timeout, the LTC4120 enters a low power sleep mode. automatic recharge in sleep mode, the ic continues to monitor battery voltage. if the battery falls 2.5% (v rchg ) from the full-charge float voltage, the LTC4120 engages an automatic recharge cycle. automatic recharge has a built-in filter of about 0.5 ms to prevent triggering a new charge cycle if a load transient causes the battery voltage to drop temporarily. figure 6. ntc connections + r bias replace 29% intv cc with 36.5% for 40c r ntc li-ion t 4120 f06 r adj opt bat ntc 74% intv cc too cold too hot ignore ntc intv cc LTC4120 29% intv cc 2% intv cc + ? + ? + ? 4120fb ltc 4120
17 for more information www.linear.com/LTC4120 operation state of charge and fault status pins the LTC4120 contains two open-drain outputs which provide charge status and signal fault indications. the binary-coded chrg pin pulls low to indicate charging at a rate higher than c/10. the fault pin pulls low to indicate a bad battery timeout, or to indicate an ntc thermal fault condition. during ntc faults the chrg pin remains low, but when a bad battery timeout occurs the chrg pin de- asserts. when the open-drain outputs are pulled up with a resistor, table 3 summarizes the charger state that is indicated by the pin voltages. table 3. LTC4120 open-drain indicator outputs with resistor pull-ups fault chrg charger state high high off or topping off charging at a rate less than c/10 high low charging at rate higher than c/10 low high bad battery fault low low ntc thermal fault charging paused low battery voltage operation the LTC4120 automatically preconditions heavily dis- charged batteries . if the battery voltage is below v lowbat minus its hysteresis (typically 2.05 ve.g., battery pack protection has been engaged) a dc current, i lowbat , is applied to the bat pin from the intv cc supply. when the battery voltage rises above v lowbat , the switching regula- tor is enabled and charges the battery at a trickle charge level of 10% of the full-scale charge current ( in addition to the dc i lowbat current). trickle charging of the battery continues until the sensed battery voltage ( sensed via the feedback pin for the LTC4120) rises above the trickle charge threshold, v trkl . when the battery rises above the trickle charge threshold, the full-scale charge current is applied and the dc trickle charge current is turned off. if the battery remains below the trickle charge threshold for more than 30 minutes, charging terminates and the fault status pin is asserted to indicate a bad battery. after a bad batter y fault, the LTC4120 automatically restarts a new charge cycle once the failed battery is removed and replaced with another battery. precision run/shutdown control the LTC4120 remains in a low power disabled mode until the run pin is driven above v en (typically 2.45 v). while the LTC4120 is in disabled mode, current drain from the battery is reduced to extend battery lifetime, the status pins are both de-asserted, and the fbg pin is high impedance. charging can be stopped at any time by pulling the run pin below 2.25 v. the LTC4120 also offers an extremely low operating current shutdown mode when the run pin is pulled below v sd (typically 0.7 v). in this condition less than 5a is drawn from the supply at in. differential undervoltage lockout the LTC4120 monitors the difference between the battery voltage, v bat , and the input supply, v in . if the difference (v in -v bat ) falls to v duvlo , all functions are disabled and the part is forced into shutdown mode until (v in -v bat ) rises above the v duvlo hysteresis. user selectable buck operating frequency the LTC4120 uses a constant-frequency synchronous step-down buck architecture to produce high operating efficiency. the nominal operating frequency of the buck, f osc , is programmed by connecting the freq pin to either intv cc or to gnd to obtain a switching frequency of 1.5 mhz or 750 khz, respectively. the high operating frequency allows the use of smaller external components. selection of the operating frequency is a trade-off between efficiency, component size, and margin from the minimum on-time of the switcher. operation at lower frequency improves efficiency by reducing internal gate charge and switching losses, but requires larger inductance values to maintain low output ripple. operation at higher frequency allows the use of smaller components, but may require sufficient margin from the minimum on-time at the lowest duty cycle if fixed-frequency switching is required. 4120fb ltc 4120
18 for more information www.linear.com/LTC4120 operation pwm dropout detector if the input voltage approaches the battery voltage, the LTC4120 may require duty cycles approaching 100%. this mode of operation is known as dropout. in dropout, the operating frequency may fall well below the programmed f osc value. if the top switch remains on for eight clock cycles, the dropout detector activates and forces the bottom switch on for the remainder of that clock cycle or until the inductor current decays to zero. this avoids a potential source of audible noise when using ceramic input or output capacitors and prevents the boost sup - ply capacitor for the top gate drive from discharging. in dropout operation, the actual charge current may not be able to reach the full-scale programmed value. in such a scenario the analog charge current monitor function does not represent actual charge current being delivered. burst mode operation at low charge currents, for example during constant- voltage mode, the LTC4120 automatically enters burst mode operation. in burst mode operation the switcher is periodically forced into standby mode in order to improve efficiency. the LTC4120 automatically enters burst mode operation after it exits constant-current ( cc) mode and as the charge current drops below about 80 ma. burst mode operation is triggered at lower currents for larger prog resistors, and depends on the input supply voltage. refer to graph g13: burst mode trigger current and graph g14: typical burst mode waveform, in the typical performance characteristics, for more information on burst mode op - eration. burst mode operation has some hysteresis and remains engaged for battery currents up to about 150ma. while in burst mode operation, the prog pin voltage to average charge current relationship is not well defined. this is due to the prog pin voltage falling to 0 v in between bursts , as shown in g14. if the prog pin voltage falls below 120 mv for longer than 350 s this causes the chrg pin to de- assert, indicating c /10. burst current ripple depends on the selected switch inductor, and v in /v bat . boost supply refresh the boost supply for the top gate drive in the LTC4120 switching regulator is generated by bootstrapping the boost flying capacitor to intv cc whenever the bottom switch is turned on. this technique provides a voltage of intv cc from the boost pin to the sw pin. in the event that the bottom switch remains off for a prolonged period of time, e.g., during burst mode operation, the boost supply may require a refresh. similar to the pwm dropout timer, the LTC4120 counts the number of clock cycles since the last boost refresh. when this count reaches 32, the next pwm cycle begins by turning on the bottom side switch first. this pulse refreshes the boost flying capacitor to intv cc and ensures that the topside gate driver has sufficient voltage to turn on the topside switch at the beginning of the next cycle. operation without an input supply or wireless power when a battery is the only available power source, care should be taken to eliminate loading of the in pin. load current on in drains the battery through the body diode of the top side power switch as v in falls below v sw . to prevent this possibility, place a diode between the input supply and the in capacitor, c in . the rectification diode (d9 in figure 4 and figure 10) in the wireless power ap- plications also eliminates this discharge path. alternately, a diode may be placed in series with the bat pin provided care is taken to directly sense the positive battery terminal voltage with fb via the battery resistive divider. this is illustrated with diode d7 in figure 9. 4120fb ltc 4120

27 for more information www.linear.com/LTC4120 applications information intv cc supply and capacitor: c intvcc power for the top and bottom gate drivers and most other internal circuitry is derived from the intv cc pin. a low esr ceramic capacitor of 2.2 f is required on the intv cc pin. the intv cc supply has a relatively low current limit (i intvcc ) that is dialed back when intv cc is low to reduce power dissipation. do not use the intv cc voltage to supply power for any external circuitry apart from the ntcbias network. when the run pin is above v en the intv cc supply is enabled, and when intv cc rises above uv intvcc the charger is enabled. calculating power dissipation the user should ensure that the maximum rated junction temperature is not exceeded under all operating conditions. the thermal resistance of the LTC4120 package ( ja ) is 54c/w; provided that the exposed pad is soldered to suf- ficient pcb copper area. the actual thermal resistance in the application may depend on forced air cooling or other heat sinking means, and especially the amount of copper on the pcb to which the LTC4120 is attached. the actual power dissipation while charging is approximated by the following formula: p d ? v in C v bat ( ) ?i trkl + v in ?i in(switching) + r sns ?i chg 2 + r ds(on)(top) ? v bat v in ?i chg 2 + r ds(on)(bot) ? 1C v bat v in ? ? ? ? ? ? ?i chg 2 during trickle charge ( v bat < v trkl ) the power dissipation may be significant as i trkl is typically 10 ma, however during normal charging the i trkl term is zero. the junction temperature can be estimated using the fol- lowing formula: t j = t a + p d ? ja where t a is the ambient operating temperature. significant power is also consumed in the transmitter electronics. the large ac voltage generated across the l x and c x tank results in power being dissipated in the dc resistance of the l x coil and the esr of the c x capacitor. the large induced magnetic field in the l x coil may also induce heating in nearby metallic objects. pcb layout to prevent magnetic and electrical field radiation and high frequency resonant problems, proper layout of the components connected to the LTC4120 is essential. for maximum efficiency, the switch node rise and fall times should be minimized. the following pcb design priority list will help insure proper topology. layout the pcb using the guidelines listed below in this specific order. 1. keep foreign metallic objects away from the transmit - ter coil . metallic objects in proximity to the transmit coil will suffer from induction heating and will be a sour ce of power loss. with the exception of a ferrite shield that can be used to improve the coupling from transmitter coil to receiver coil when placed behind the transmitter coil. advanced transmitters from powerbyproxi include features to detect the presence of foreign metallic objects that mitigates this issue. 2. v in input capacitor should be placed as close as pos- sible to the in and gnd pins, with the shortest copper traces possible and a via connection to the gnd plane 3. place the switching inductor as close as possible to the sw pin. minimize the surface area of the sw pin node. make the trace width the minimum needed to support the programmed charge current, and ensure that the spacing to other copper traces be maximized to reduce capacitance from the sw node to any other node. 4. place the bat capacitor adjacent to the bat pin and ensure that the ground return feeds to the same cop - per that connects to the input capacitor ground before connecting back to system ground. 5. route analog ground ( run ground and intv cc capaci- tor ground ) as a separate trace back to the LTC4120 gnd pin before connecting to any other ground. 4120fb ltc 4120

(c2p + c2s) = 127khz in this design example, the de- tuned resonant frequency is: f d = 1 2 ? ? lr ? c2s = 142khz f d should be set between 5% and 15% higher than f t . a higher level gives more control range but results in more power dissipation. a 47 h coil is selected for l r to obtain a turns ratio of 3:1 from the transmitter coil, l x = 5h. now c2s can be calculated to be 26.7nf. tw o standard parallel 50 v rated capacitors, 22 nf and 4.7 nf, provide a value within 1% of the calculated c2s. now c2p can be calculated to be 6.5 nf which can be obtained with 4.7nf and 1.8nf capacitors in parallel. all of the capacitors should be selected with 5% or better tolerance. the rectifier, d8, d9 and d5 are selected as 50 v rated schottky diodes. now consider the design circuit for the LTC4120 charger function. first, the external feedback divider, r fb1 /r fb2 , is found using standard 0.1% values: r fb1 = 8.2v ? 588k 2.5v ? 1.93m r fb2 = 1.96m ? 588k 1.96m C 588k ? 845k with these resistors, and including the resistance of the fbg pin, the battery float voltage is 8.204v. with an 8.2 v float voltage the maximum charge current available is limited by the maximum power available from the rcpt at eff = 85% charger efficiency: i chg(max) 85% ? 2w 8.2v = 207ma a charge current of 200 ma is achieved by selecting a standard 1% r prog resistor of: r prog = h prog ? v prog i chg = 6.04k while charging a battery, the resonant receiver is loaded by the charge current, this load reduces the input voltage from the open-circuit value to a typical voltage in a range from 12v ( at uvcl) up to about 26 v. the amplitude of this voltage depends primarily on the amount of coupling between the transmitter and the receiver, typically this voltage is about 17v. 4120fb ltc 4120
29 for more information www.linear.com/LTC4120 applications information the maximum loaded input voltage is used to select the operating frequency and influences the value of the switch - ing inductor . the saturation current rating of the switching inductor is selected based on the worst case conditions at the maximum open-circuit voltage. a typical 2-cell li- ion battery pack engages pack protection for v bat less than 5 v, this is the lowest voltage considered for determining the on-time and selecting the 1.5mhz operating frequency. t on = 5v 1.5mhz ? 17v = 476ns > t min(on) now the switching inductor value is calculated. the induc- tor value is calculated based on achieving a 30% ripple current. the ripple current is calculated at the typical input operating voltage of 17v: l3 > 17v C 8.2v ( ) ? 8.2v 2 ? 1.5mhz ? 17v ? 30% ? 200ma ( ) = 24h 33 h is the next standard inductor value that is greater than this minimum. this inductor value results in a worst-case ripple current at the input open-circuit voltage, v in(oc) . v in(oc) is estimated based on the transmitter design in figure 3, at the largest coupling coefficient k = 0.37 as: v in(oc) = k ? n ? ? v in(tx) v in(oc) = 0.37 ? 3 ? 3.14 ? 5v = 34.9v ? i l = 34.9v C 8.2v ( ) ? 8.2v 1.5mhz ? 33h ? 34.9v = 127ma this results in a worst-case peak inductor current of: i l(peak) = i chg + ? i l 2 = 263ma select an inductor with a saturation current rating greater than the worst-case peak inductor current of 263ma. select a 50 v rated capacitor for c in = 10 f to achieve an input voltage ripple of 10 mv at the typical operating input voltage of 17v: ? v in = 200ma ? 8.2v 17v 10f = 10mv and select 6 v rated capacitors for c intvcc = 2.2 f, c boost = 22 nf, and c bat = 10 f. optionally add diode d6, a 1w, 39 v zener diode if the coupling from transmitter to receiver coils is not well enough controlled to ensure that v in remains below 39 v when the battery is fully charged. finally the run pin divider is selected to turn on the char- ger once the input voltage reaches 11.2 v. with r3 = 374k and r4 = 102 k the run pin reaches 2.4 v at v in = 11.2v. with this run pin divider, the LTC4120 is disabled once v in falls below 10.5v. for this design example, power dissipation during trickle charge, where the switching charge current is 20ma at v bat = 3v and i in switching = 5ma, is calculated as follows: p d = 20v C 3v ( ) ? 10ma + 20v ? 5ma + 0.3 ? ? 0.02a 2 + 0.8 ? ? 3v 20v ? 0.02a 2 + 0.5 ? ? 1C 3v 20v ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 0.02a 2 = 0.27w this dissipated power results in a junction temperature rise of: p d ? ja = 0.27w ? 54c/w = 15c during regular charging with v bat > v trkl , the power dissipation reduces to: p d = 20v ? 5ma + 0.3 ? ? 0.2a 2 + 0.8 ? ? 8.2v 20v ? 0.2a 2 + 0.5 ? ? 1C 8.2v 20v ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 0.2a 2 = 0.14mw this dissipated power results in a junction temperature rise of 6c over ambient. 4120fb ltc 4120
