PIN FUNCTIONS
BAT (Pin 1): Battery Charger Output Terminal. Connect a
10μF ceramic chip capacitor between BAT and PGND to
keep the ripple voltage small.
SENSE (Pin 2): Internal Sense Resistor. Connect to ex-
ternal inductor.
PGND (Pin 3): Power Ground.
GNDSENS (Pin 4): Ground Sense. Connect this pin to the
negative battery terminal. GNDSENS provides a Kelvin
connection for PGND and must be connected to PGND
schematically.
SW (Pin 5): Switch Node Connection. This pin connects
to the drains of the internal main and synchronous power
MOSFET switches. Connect to external inductor.
EN (Pin 6): Enable Input Pin. Pulling the EN pin high
places the LTC4001-1 into a low power state where the
BAT drain current drops to less than 3μA and the supply
current is reduced to less than 50μA. For normal opera-
tion, pull the pin low.
CHRG (Pin 7): Open-Drain Charge Status Output. When the
battery is being charged, CHRG is pulled low by an internal
N-channel MOSFET. When the charge current drops below
the IDET threshold (set by the RIDET programming resistor)
for more than 5milliseconds, the N-channel MOSFET turns
off and a 30μA current source is connected from CHRG to
ground. (This signal is latched and is reset by initiating a
new charge cycle.) When the timer runs out or the input
supply is removed, the current source will be disconnected
and the CHRG pin is forced to a high impedance state. A
temperature fault causes this pin to blink.
PVIN (Pin 8): Positive Supply Voltage Input. This pin con-
nects to the power devices inside the chip. VIN ranges
from 4V to 5.5V for normal operation. Operation down to
the undervoltage lockout threshold is allowed with cur-
rent limited wall adapters. Decouple with a 10μF or larger
surface mounted ceramic capacitor.
VINSENSE (Pin 9): Positive Supply Sense Input. This pin
connects to the inputs of all input comparators (UVL, VIN
to VBAT). It also supplies power to the controller portion
of this chip. When the BATSENS pin rises to within 30mV
of VINSENSE, the LTC4001-1 enters sleep mode, dropping
IIN to 50μA. Tie this pin directly to the terminal of the PVIN
decoupling capacitor.
FAULT (Pin 10): Battery Fault. This pin is a logic high if
a shorted battery is detected or if a temperature fault is
detected. A temperature fault occurs with the temperature
monitor circuit enabled and the thermistor temperature is
either below 0°C or above 50°C (typical).
