●The BENCHMARQ bq2057 series advanced Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) and Lithium-Polymer (Li-Pol) linear charge-management ICs are designed for cost-sensitive and compact portable electronics. They combine high-accuracy current and voltage regulation, battery conditioning, temperature monitoring, charge termination, charge-status indication, and AutoComp charge-rate compensation in a single 8-pin IC. MSOP, TSSOP, and SOIC package options are offered to fit a wide range of end applications.
●The bq2057 continuously measures battery temperature using an external thermistor. For safety, the bq2057 inhibits charge until the battery temperature is within user-defined thresholds. The bq2057 then charges the battery in three phases: conditioning, constant current, and constant voltage. If the battery voltage is below the low-voltage threshold, V(min), the bq2057 precharges using a low current to condition the battery. The conditioning charge rate is approximately 10% of the regulation current. The conditioning current also minimizes heat dissipation in the external pass-element during the initial stage of the charge. After conditioning, the bq2057 applies a constant current to the battery. An external sense-resistor sets the current. The sense-resistor can be on either the high or low side of the battery without additional components. The constant-current phase continues until the battery reaches the charge-regulation voltage.
●The bq2057 then begins the constant-voltage phase. The accuracy of the voltage regulation is better than ±1% over the operating-temperature and supply-voltage ranges. For single and dual cells, the bq2057 is offered in four fixed-voltage versions: 4.1 V, 4.2 V, 8.2 V, and 8.4 V. Charge stops when the current tapers to the charge termination threshold, I(TERM). The bq2057 automatically restarts the charge if the battery voltage falls below the V(RCH) threshold.
●The designer also may use the AutoComp feature to reduce charging time. This proprietary technique allows safe and dynamic compensation for the internal impedance of the battery pack during charge.
