SC801
Fully Integrated High Current
Lithium-Ion Battery Charger System
POWER MANAGEMENT
Description
Features
The SC801 is a fully integrated, single cell, constant-cur-
rent/constant-voltage Lithium-Ion\Li-Polymer battery
charger management system. The SC801 has built in in-
telligence and extreme functionality. When the battery
voltage is below 2.8V the charger operates in a pre-
charge mode with a charging current of up to 125mA
based on the ITERM pin resistor. This pre-charge mode is
set to limit power dissipation due to an undercharged
battery. When the battery voltage exceeds 2.8V, the
charger enters a fast charge mode. In this mode, the
SC801 delivers up to 1.5A to the battery based on the
IPRGM pin resistor.
The part also features current termination, ending the
charge cycle when the battery is charged and the charge
current drops below the current programmed by the
ITERM pin resistor. In addition, the charge current can
be monitored by the voltage on the IPRGM pin allowing a
microcontroller or ADC to access the current informa-
tion to determine when to externally terminate the charge
cycle. Once the charge cycle is complete and terminates,
the device enters the charge monitor mode where the
output voltage of the battery is monitored. If this voltage
drops below the recharge threshold the device will enter
the fast charge mode again, to bring the battery to its
fully charged state. Both the shutdown and monitor
modes drain no more than 1uA from the battery guaran-
teed.
The output voltage to the battery is controlled to within
1% of the programmed voltage for either 4.1V or 4.2V.
The SC801 can also function as a general purpose cur-
rent source or as a current source for charging nickel-
cadmium (NiCd) and nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) batter-
ies using external termination.
