Linear Li+ Battery Charger with Integrated Pass FET and Thermal Regulation in 3mm x 3mm Thin DFN

Active: In Production.

The MAX1507 is an intelligent, stand-alone constant-current, constant-voltage (CCCV), thermally regulated linear charger for a single-cell lithium-ion (Li+) battery. The MAX1507 integrates the current-sense circuit, MOS pass element, and thermal-regulation circuitry, and also eliminates the reverse-blocking Schottky diode to create the simplest and smallest charging solution for hand-held equipment.

The MAX1507 functions as a stand-alone charger to control the charging sequence from the prequalification state through fast-charge, top-off charge, and full-charge indication.

Proprietary thermal-regulation circuitry limits the die temperature when fast charging or while exposed to high ambient temperatures, allowing maximum charging current without damaging the IC.

The MAX1507 achieves high flexibility by providing an adjustable fast-charge current and thermal regulation setpoints. Other features include the charging status (active-low CHG) of the battery and an active-low control input (active-low EN).

The MAX1507 accepts a +4.25V to +13V supply, but disables charging when the input voltage exceeds +7V to protect against unqualified or faulty AC adapters. The MAX1507 operates over the extended temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and is available in a compact 8-pin thermally enhanced 3mm x 3mm Thin DFN package with 0.8mm height.
