Low Cost Multi-Chemistry Battery  
Charger Controller  
Features  
• ±0.5% Charge Voltage Accuracy (-10°C to 100°C)  
• ±3% Accurate Input Current Limit  
The ISL6251, ISL6251A is a highly integrated battery  
charger controller for Li-Ion/Li-Ion polymer batteries and  
NiMH batteries. High Efficiency is achieved by a  
synchronous buck topology and the use of a MOSFET,  
instead of a diode, for selecting power from the adapter or  
battery. The low side MOSFET emulates a diode at light  
loads to improve the light load efficiency and prevent system  
bus boosting.  
• ±3% Accurate Battery Charge Current Limit  
• ±25% Accurate Battery Trickle Charge Current Limit  
(ISL6251A)  
• Programmable Charge Current Limit, Adapter Current  
Limit and Charge Voltage  
• Fixed 300kHz PWM Synchronous Buck Controller with  
Diode Emulation at Light Load  
The constant output voltage can be selected for 2, 3 and 4  
series Li-Ion cells with 0.5% accuracy over temperature. It  
can be also programmed between 4.2V+5%/cell and  
4.2V-5%/cell to optimize battery capacity. When supplying  
the load and battery charger simultaneously, the input  
current limit for the AC adapter is programmable to within  
3% accuracy to avoid overloading the AC adapter, and to  
allow the system to make efficient use of available adapter  
power for charging. It also has a wide range of  
programmable charging current. The ISL6251, ISL6251A  
provides outputs that are used to monitor the current drawn  
from the AC adapter, and monitor for the presence of an AC  
adapter. The ISL6251, ISL6251A automatically transitions  
from regulating current mode to regulating voltage mode.  
• Output for Current Drawn from AC Adapter  
• AC Adapter Present Indicator  
• Fast Input Current Limit Response  
• Input Voltage Range 7V to 25V  
• Support 2, 3 and 4 Cells Battery Pack  
• Up to 17.64V Battery-Voltage Set Point  
• Thermal Shutdown  
• Support Pulse Charging  
• Less than 10µA Battery Leakage Current  
• Charge Any Battery Chemistry: Li-Ion, NiCd, NiMH, etc.

PGND  
Functional Pin Descriptions  
PGND is the power ground. Connect PGND to the source of  
the low side MOSFET for the low side MOSFET gate driver.  
BOOT  
Connect BOOT to a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to PHASE pin  
and connect to the cathode of the bootstrap schottky diode.  
VDD  
VDD is an internal LDO output to supply IC analog circuit.  
Connect a 1μF ceramic capacitor to ground.  
UGATE  
UGATE is the high side MOSFET gate drive output.  
VDDP  
LGATE  
VDDP is the supply voltage for the low-side MOSFET gate  
driver. Connect a 4.7Ω resistor to VDD and a 1μF ceramic  
capacitor to power ground.  
LGATE is the low side MOSFET gate drive output; swing  
between 0V and VDDP.  
PHASE  
ICOMP  
The Phase connection pin connects to the high side  
MOSFET source, output inductor, and low side MOSFET  
drain.  
ICOMP is a current loop error amplifier output.  
VCOMP  
VCOMP is a voltage loop amplifier output.  
CSOP/CSON  
CELLS  
CSOP/CSON is the battery charging current sensing  
positive/negative input. The differential voltage across CSOP  
and CSON is used to sense the battery charging current,  
and is compared with the charging current limit threshold to  
regulate the charging current. The CSON pin is also used as  
the battery feedback voltage to perform voltage regulation.  
This pin is used to select the battery voltage. CELLS = VDD  
for a 4S battery pack, CELLS = GND for a 3S battery pack,  
CELLS = Float for a 2S battery pack.  
VADJ  
VADJ adjusts battery regulation voltage. VADJ = VREF for  
4.2V+5%/cell; VADJ = Floating for 4.2V/cell; VADJ = GND  
for 4.2V-5%/cell. Connect to a resistor divider to program the  
desired battery cell voltage between 4.2V-5% and 4.2V+5%.  
CSIP/CSIN  
CSIP/CSIN is the AC adapter current sensing  
positive/negative input. The differential voltage across CSIP  
and CSIN is used to sense the AC adapter current, and is  
compared with the AC adapter current limit to regulate the  
AC adapter current.  
CHLIM  
CHLIM is the battery charge current limit set pin. CHLIM  
input voltage range is 0.1V to 3.6V. When CHLIM = 3.3V, the  
set point for CSOP-CSON is 165mV. The charger shuts  
down if CHLIM is forced below 88mV.  
GND  
GND is an analog ground.  
DCIN  
ACLIM  
The DCIN pin is the input of the internal 5V LDO. Connect it  
to the AC adapter output. Connect a 0.1μF ceramic  
capacitor from DCIN to PGND.  
ACLIM is the adapter current limit set pin. ACLIM = VREF for  
100mV, ACLIM = Floating for 75mV, and ACLIM = GND for  
50mV. Connect a resistor divider to program the adapter  
current limit threshold between 50mV and 100mV.  
ACSET  
VREF  
ACSET is an AC adapter detection input. Connect to a  
resistor divider from the AC adapter output.  
VREF is a 2.39V reference output pin. It is internally  
compensated. Do not connect a decoupling capacitor.  
ACPRN  
Open-drain output signals AC adapter is present. ACPRN  
pulls low when ACSET is higher than 1.26V; and pulled high  
when ACSET is lower than 1.26V.  
EN  
EN is the Charge Enable input. Connecting EN to high  
enables the charge control function, connecting EN to low  
disables charging functions. Use with a thermistor to detect  
a hot battery and suspend charging.  
ICM  
ICM is the adapter current output. The output of this pin  
produces a voltage proportional to the adapter current.

ISL6251, ISL6251A  
voltage approaches the input voltage, the DC/DC converter  
Theory of Operation  
operates in dropout mode, where there is a timer to prevent  
the frequency from dropping into the audible frequency  
range. It can achieve duty cycle of up to 99.6%.  
Introduction  
The ISL6251, ISL6251A includes all of the functions  
necessary to charge 2 to 4 cell Li-Ion and Li-polymer  
batteries. A high efficiency synchronous buck converter is  
used to control the charging voltage and charging current up  
to 10A. The ISL6251, ISL6251A has input current limiting  
and analog inputs for setting the charge current and charge  
voltage; CHLIM inputs are used to control charge current  
and VADJ inputs are used to control charge voltage.  
To prevent boosting of the system bus voltage, the battery  
charger operates in standard-buck mode when CSOP-  
CSON drops below 4.25mV. Once in standard-buck mode,  
hysteresis does not allow synchronous operation of the  
DC/DC converter until CSOP-CSON rises above 12.5mV.  
An adaptive gate drive scheme is used to control the dead  
time between two switches. The dead time control circuit  
monitors the LGATE output and prevents the upper side  
MOSFET from turning on until LGATE is fully off, preventing  
cross-conduction and shoot-through. In order for the dead  
time circuit to work properly, there must be a low resistance,  
low inductance path from the LGATE driver to MOSFET  
gate, and from the source of MOSFET to PGND. The  
external Schottky diode is between the VDDP pin and BOOT  
pin to keep the bootstrap capacitor charged.  
The ISL6251, ISL6251A charges the battery with constant  
charge current, set by CHLIM input, until the battery voltage  
rises up to a programmed charge voltage set by VADJ input;  
then the charger begins to operate at a constant voltage  
charge mode.  
The EN input allows shutdown of the charger through a  
command from a micro-controller. It also uses EN to safely  
shutdown the charger when the battery is in extremely hot  
conditions. The amount of adapter current is reported on the  
ICM output. Figure 11 shows the IC functional block  
diagram.  
Setting the Battery Regulation Voltage  
The ISL6251, ISL6251A uses a high-accuracy trimmed  
band-gap voltage reference to regulate the battery charging  
voltage. The VADJ input adjusts the charger output voltage,  
and the VADJ control voltage can vary from 0 to VREF,  
providing a 10% adjustment range (from 4.2V-5% to  
4.2V+5%) on CSON regulation voltage. An overall voltage  
accuracy of better than 0.5% is achieved.  
The synchronous buck converter uses external N-channel  
MOSFETs to convert the input voltage to the required  
charging current and charging voltage. Figure 12 shows the  
ISL6251, ISL6251A typical application circuit with charging  
current and charging voltage fixed at specific values. The  
typical application circuit shown in Figure 13 shows the  
ISL6251, ISL6251A typical application circuit which uses a  
micro-controller to adjust the charging current set by CHLIM  
input. The voltage at CHLIM and the value of R1 sets the  
charging current. The DC/DC converter generates the  
control signals to drive two external N-channel MOSFETs to  
regulate the voltage and current set by the ACLIM, CHLIM,  
VADJ and CELLS inputs.  
The per-cell battery termination voltage is a function of the  
battery chemistry. Consult the battery manufacturers to  
determine this voltage.  
• Float VADJ to set the battery voltage V  
number of the cells,  
= 4.2V ×  
CSON  
• Connect VADJ to VREF to set 4.41V × number of cells,  
• Connect VADJ to ground to set 3.99V × number of the  
cells.  
The ISL6251, ISL6251A features a voltage regulation loop  
(VCOMP) and two current regulation loops (ICOMP). The  
VCOMP voltage regulation loop monitors CSON to ensure  
that its voltage never exceeds the voltage and regulates the  
battery charge voltage set by VADJ. The ICOMP current  
regulation loops regulate the battery charging current  
delivered to the battery to ensure that it never exceeds the  
charging current limit set by CHLIM; and the ICOMP current  
regulation loops also regulate the input current drawn from  
the AC adapter to ensure that it never exceeds the input  
current limit set by ACLIM, and to prevent a system crash  
and AC adapter overload.  
So, the maximum battery voltage of 17.6V can be achieved.  
Note that other battery charge voltages can be set by  
connecting a resistor divider from VREF to ground. The  
resistor divider should be sized to draw no more than 100µA  
from VREF; or connect a low impedance voltage source like  
the D/A converter in the micro-controller. The programmed  
battery voltage per cell can be determined by the following  
equation:  
VCELL = 0.175 VVADJ + 3.99V  
An external resistor divider from VREF sets the voltage at  
VADJ according to:  
PWM Control  
The ISL6251, ISL6251A employs a fixed frequency PWM  
current mode control architecture with a feed forward  
function. The feed-forward function maintains a constant  
modulator gain of 11 to achieve fast line regulation as the  
buck input voltage changes. When the battery charge

Setting the Input Current Limit  
The total input current from an AC adapter, or other DC  
source, is a function of the system supply current and the  
battery-charging current. The input current regulator limits  
the input current by reducing the charging current, when the  
input current exceeds the input current limit set point.  
System current normally fluctuates as portions of the system  
are powered up or down. Without input current regulation,  
the source must be able to supply the maximum system  
current and the maximum charger input current  
Connect CELLS as shown in Table 1 to charge 2, 3 or 4 Li+  
cells. When charging other cell chemistries, use CELLS to  
select an output voltage range for the charger. The internal  
error amplifier gm1 maintains voltage regulation. The voltage  
error amplifier is compensated at VCOMP. The component  
values shown in Figure 12 provide suitable performance for  
most applications. Individual compensation of the voltage  
regulation and current-regulation loops allows for optimal  
compensation.  
simultaneously. By using the input current limiter, the current  
capability of the AC adapter can be lowered, reducing  
system cost.

The ISL6251, ISL6251A limits the battery charge current  
when the input current-limit threshold is exceeded, ensuring  
the battery charger does not load down the AC adapter  
voltage. This constant input current regulation allows the  
adapter to fully power the system and prevent the AC  
adapter from overloading and crashing the system bus.

Setting the Battery Charge Current Limit  
The CHLIM input sets the maximum charging current. The  
current set by the current sense-resistor connects between  
CSOP and CSON. The full-scale differential voltage between  
CSOP and CSON is 165mV for CHLIM = 3.3V, so the  
maximum charging current is 4.125A for a 40mΩ sensing  
resistor. Other battery charge current-sense threshold  
values can be set by connecting a resistor divider from  
VREF or 3.3V to ground, or by connecting a low impedance  
voltage source like a D/A converter in the micro-controller.  
Unlike VADJ and ACLIM, CHLIM does not have an internal  
resistor divider network. The charge current limit threshold is  
given by:  
An internal amplifier gm3 compares the voltage between  
CSIP and CSIN to the input current limit threshold voltage  
set by ACLIM. Connect ACLIM to REF, Float and GND for  
the full-scale input current limit threshold voltage of 100mV,  
75mV and 50mV, respectively, or use a resistor divider from  
VREF to ground to set the input current limit as the following

When choosing the current sense resistor, note that the  
voltage drop across this resistor causes further power  
dissipation, reducing efficiency. The AC adapter current  
sense accuracy is very important. Use a 1% tolerance  
current-sense resistor. The highest accuracy of ±3% is  
achieved with 100mV current-sense threshold voltage for  
ACLIM = VREF, but it has the highest power dissipation. For  
example, it has 400mW power dissipation for rated 4A AC  
adapter and 1W sensing resistor may have to be used. ±4%  
and ±6% accuracy can be achieved with 75mV and 50mV  
current-sense threshold voltage for ACLIM = Floating and  
ACLIM = GND, respectively.  
When the CHLIM voltage is below 88mV (typical), it will  
disable the battery charger. When choosing the current  
sensing resistor, note that the voltage drop across the  
sensing resistor causes further power dissipation, reducing  
efficiency. However, adjusting CHLIM voltage to reduce the  
voltage across the current sense resistor R1 will degrade  
accuracy due to the smaller signal to the input of the current  
sense amplifier. There is a trade-off between accuracy and  
power dissipation. A low pass filter is recommended to  
eliminate switching noise. Connect the resistor to the CSOP  
pin instead of the CSON pin, as the CSOP pin has lower

A low pass filter is suggested to eliminate the switching

temperature.  
noise. Connect the resistor to CSIN pin instead of CSIP pin  
because CSIN pin has lower bias current and less influence  
on the current-sense accuracy.  
Another method for inhibiting charging is to force CHLIM  
below 88mV (typ).

ACSET to detect when AC power is available, as shown in  
Figure 12. ACPRN is an open-drain output and is high when  
Short Circuit Protection and 0V Battery Charging

Current Measurement  
Use ICM to monitor the input current being sensed across  
CSIP and CSIN. The output voltage range is 0 to 2.5V. The  
voltage of ICM is proportional to the voltage drop across  
CSIP and CSIN, and is given by the following equation:  
Inductor Selection  
The inductor selection has trade-offs between cost, size and  
efficiency. For example, the lower the inductance, the  
smaller the size, but ripple current is higher. This also results  
in higher AC losses in the magnetic core and the windings,  
which decrease the system efficiency. On the other hand,  
the higher inductance results in lower ripple current and  
smaller output filter capacitors, but it has higher DCR (DC  
resistance of the inductor) loss, and has slower transient  
response. So, the practical inductor design is based on the  
inductor ripple current being ±(15-20)% of the maximum  
operating DC current at maximum input voltage. The  
required inductance can be calculated from:

A low pass filter connected to ICM output is used to filter the

LDO Regulator  
VDD provides a 5.075V supply voltage from the internal LDO  
regulator from DCIN and can deliver up to 30mA of current.  
The MOSFET drivers are powered by VDDP, which must be  
connected to VDDP as shown in Figure 12. VDDP connects  
to VDD through an external resistor. Bypass VDDP and VDD

The ISL6251, ISL6251A features a low-power shutdown

thermistor is included inside the battery pack to measure its  
temperature. When connected to the charger, the thermistor  
forms a voltage divider with a resistive pull-up to the VREF.

The optimum efficiency occurs when the switching losses

since it must allow for difficult-to-quantify factors that  
influence the turn-on and turn-off times. These factors  
include the MOSFET internal gate resistance, gate charge,

conduction mode which is typical operation for the battery

varies from its initial battery voltage to the rated battery  
voltage. So, the duty cycle change can be in the range of  
between 0.53 and 0.88 for the minimum battery voltage of  
10V (2.5V/Cell) and the maximum battery voltage of 16.8V.

The high side MOSFET must be able to dissipate the  
conduction losses plus the switching losses. For the battery  
charger application, the input voltage of the synchronous  
buck converter is equal to the AC adapter output voltage,  
which is relatively constant. The maximum efficiency is  
achieved by selecting a high side MOSFET that has the  
conduction losses equal to the switching losses. Ensure that  
ISL6251, ISL6251A LGATE gate driver can supply sufficient  
gate current to prevent it from conduction, which is due to  
the injected current into the drain-to-source parasitic  
Choose a low-side MOSFET that has the lowest possible  
on-resistance with a moderate-sized package like the SO-8  
and is reasonably priced. The switching losses are not an  
issue for the low side MOSFET because it operates at  
zero-voltage-switching.  
Choose a Schottky diode in parallel with low-side MOSFET  
Q2 with a forward voltage drop low enough to prevent the  
low-side MOSFET Q2 body-diode from turning on during the  
dead time. This also reduces the power loss in the high-side  
MOSFET associated with the reverse recovery of the  
low-side MOSFET Q2 body diode.

As a general rule, select a diode with DC current rating equal  
to one-third of the load current. One option is to choose a  
combined MOSFET with the Schottky diode in a single  
package. The integrated packages may work better in  
practice because there is less stray inductance due to a  
short connection. This Schottky diode is optional and may be  
removed if efficiency loss can be tolerated. In addition,  
ensure that the required total gate drive current for the  
selected MOSFETs should be less than 24mA. So, the total  
gate charge for the high-side and low-side MOSFETs is  
limited by the following equation:

Input Capacitor Selection  
Loop Compensation Design  
The input capacitor absorbs the ripple current from the  
synchronous buck converter, which is given by:  
ISL6251, ISL6251A uses constant frequency current mode  
control architecture to achieve fast loop transient response.  
An accurate current sensing resistor in series with the output  
inductor is used to regulate the charge current, and the  
sensed current signal is injected into the voltage loop to  
achieve current mode control to simplify the loop  
compensation design. The inductor is not considered as a  
state variable for current mode control and the system  
becomes single order system. It is much easier to design a  
compensator to stabilize the voltage loop than voltage mode  
control. Figure 14 shows the small signal model of the  
synchronous buck regulator.

This RMS ripple current must be smaller than the rated RMS  
current in the capacitor datasheet. Non-tantalum chemistries  
(ceramic, aluminum, or OSCON) are preferred due to their  
resistance to power-up surge currents when the AC adapter  
is plugged into the battery charger. For Notebook battery  
charger applications, it is recommend that ceramic  
capacitors or polymer capacitors from Sanyo be used due to  
their small size and reasonable cost.

PHASE Pin  
PCB Layout Considerations  
This trace should be short, and positioned away from other  
weak signal traces. This node has a very high dv/dt with a  
voltage swing from the input voltage to ground. No trace  
should be in parallel with it. This trace is also the return path  
for UGATE. Connect this pin to the high-side MOSFET  
source.  
Power and Signal Layers Placement on the PCB  
As a general rule, power layers should be close together,  
either on the top or bottom of the board, with signal layers on  
the opposite side of the board. As an example, layer  
arrangement on a 4-layer board is shown below:  
1. Top Layer: signal lines, or half board for signal lines and  
the other half board for power lines  
UGATE Pin  
This pin has a square shape waveform with high dv/dt. It  
provides the gate drive current to charge and discharge the  
top MOSFET with high di/dt. This trace should be wide,  
short, and away from other traces similar to the LGATE.  
2. Signal Ground  
3. Power Layers: Power Ground  
4. Bottom Layer: Power MOSFET, Inductors and other  
Power traces  
BOOT Pin  
Separate the power voltage and current flowing path from  
the control and logic level signal path. The controller IC will  
stay on the signal layer, which is isolated by the signal  
ground to the power signal traces.  
This pin’s di/dt is as high as the UGATE; therefore, this trace  
should be as short as possible.  
CSOP, CSON Pins  
Component Placement  
The current sense resistor connects to the CSON and the  
CSOP pins through a low pass filter. The CSON pin is also  
used as the battery voltage feedback. The traces should be  
away from the high dv/dt and di/di pins like PHASE, BOOT  
pins. In general, the current sense resistor should be close  
to the IC. Other layout arrangements should be adjusted  
accordingly.  
The power MOSFET should be close to the IC so that the  
gate drive signal, the LGATE, UGATE, PHASE, and BOOT,  
traces can be short.  
Place the components in such a way that the area under the  
IC has less noise traces with high dv/dt and di/dt, such as  
gate signals and phase node signals.  
EN Pin  
Signal Ground and Power Ground Connection.  
This pin stays high at enable mode and low at idle mode and  
is relatively robust. Enable signals should refer to the signal  
ground.  
At minimum, a reasonably large area of copper, which will  
shield other noise couplings through the IC, should be used  
as signal ground beneath the IC. The best tie-point between  
the signal ground and the power ground is at the negative  
side of the output capacitor on each side, where there is little  
noise; a noisy trace beneath the IC is not recommended.  
DCIN Pin  
This pin connects to AC adapter output voltage, and should  
be less noise sensitive.  
GND and VDD Pin  
Copper Size for the Phase Node  
At least one high quality ceramic decoupling cap should be  
used to cross these two pins. The decoupling cap can be put  
close to the IC.  
The capacitance of PHASE should be kept very low to  
minimize ringing. It would be best to limit the size of the  
PHASE node copper in strict accordance with the current  
and thermal management of the application.  
LGATE Pin  
Identify the Power and Signal Ground  
This is the gate drive signal for the bottom MOSFET of the  
buck converter. The signal going through this trace has both  
high dv/dt and high di/dt, and the peak charging and  
discharging current is very high. These two traces should be  
short, wide, and away from other traces. There should be no  
other traces in parallel with these traces on any layer.  
The input and output capacitors of the converters, the source  
terminal of the bottom switching MOSFET PGND should  
connect to the power ground. The other components should  
connect to signal ground. Signal and power ground are tied  
together at one point.  
PGND Pin  
Clamping Capacitor for Switching MOSFET  
PGND pin should be laid out to the negative side of the  
relevant output cap with separate traces. The negative side  
of the output capacitor must be close to the source node of  
the bottom MOSFET. This trace is the return path of LGATE.  
It is recommended that ceramic caps be used closely  
connected to the drain of the high-side MOSFET, and the  
source of the low-side MOSFET. This capacitor reduces the  
noise and the power loss of the MOSFET.
