TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
INTRODUCTION
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
INTRODUCTION
INPUT CAPACITOR
The input capacitor is used to reduce the input voltage
transient that may cause instability. A 1.0µF, X5R, 16V rated
ceramic capacitor is recommended for most applications.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR
For stable operation, an X5R ceramic capacitor with a
minimum 2.2µF nominal value is recommended at the output.
Depending on the load transient current, larger capacitance
may be required.
CC-MODE CURRENT SETTING
The CC-mode current can be programmed by the external
resistor, RISET. A 1% accuracy resistor is recommended to
guarantee 6% current accuracy.
DROPOUT VOLTAGE
If the DC input voltage is too low, it may not maintain the
programmed CC-mode charge current due to the voltage
dropout over the power MOSFET. The worst case of the
RDS(ON) is 475mΩ. The input voltage should be at least
higher than VBAT + ICHG x 475mΩ to guarantee the
programmed CC-mode current.
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
The MC34673 is available in a tiny 2x3 thermally-
enhanced UDFN package. A careful thermal design must be
considered. The exposed pad needs to be well soldered to a
large copper ground plane on the component layer. If the
component layer is space limited and does not allow for a
large copper plane, the thermal pad must be connected to
other ground layers through a via array. This allows
MC34673 to charge the battery with the maximum current,
while minimizing the die temperature.
APPLICATIONS
STAND-ALONE CHARGER
The MC34673 can be used in a standalone charger
without MCUs. Figure 23 shows such an application. The
green LED indicates the power presence and the red LED
indicates the charge status. In total, only 7 external
components are required.
