6/MX7015A
General Description
Features
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A are high-fre-
quency multichemistry battery chargers. These circuits
feature a new high-frequency current-mode architecture
that significantly reduces component size and cost. The
charger uses a high-side MOSFET with n-channel syn-
chronous rectifier. Widely adjustable charge current,
charge voltage, and input current limit simplify the con-
struction of highly accurate and efficient chargers.
♦ High Switching Frequency (1.2MHz)
♦ Controlled Inductor Current-Ripple Architecture
Reduced BOM Cost
Small Inductor and Output Capacitors
♦ ±±.ꢀ4 Accurate Charge ꢁoltage
♦ ±2.ꢂ4 Accurate Input-Current ꢃimiting
♦ ±ꢄ4 Accurate Charge Current
♦ Single-Point Compensation
The charge voltage and charge current are set with
analog control inputs. The charge current setting can
also be adjusted with a PWM input. High-accuracy cur-
rent-sense amplifiers provide fast cycle-by-cycle cur-
rent-mode control to protect against short circuits to the
battery and respond quickly to system load transients.
In addition, the charger provides a high-accuracy ana-
log output that is proportional to the adapter current. In
the MAX17015A, this current monitor remains active
when the adapter is absent to monitor battery dis-
charge current.
♦ Monitor Outputs for
±2.ꢂ4 Accurate Input Current ꢃimit
±2.ꢂ4 Battery ꢅischarge Current
(MAX17±1ꢂA Only)
AC Adapter ꢅetection
♦ Analog/PWM Adjustable Charge-Current Setting
♦ Battery ꢁoltage Adjustable for ꢄ and ꢀ Cells
The MAX17005A charges three or four Li+ series cells,
and the MAX17006A charges two or three Li+ series
cells. The MAX17015A adjusts the charge voltage set-
ting and the number of cells through a feedback resis-
tor-divider from the output. All variants of the charger
can provide at least 4A of charge current with a 10mΩ
sense resistor.
(MAX17±±ꢂA) or 2 and ꢄ Cells (MAX17±±6A)
♦ Adjustable Battery ꢁoltage (ꢀ.2ꢁ to ꢀ.ꢀꢁ/Cell)
♦ Cycle-by-Cycle Current ꢃimit
Battery Short-Circuit Protection
Fast Response for Pulse Charging
Fast System-ꢃoad-Transient Response
The charger utilizes a charge pump to control an n-channel
adapter selection switch. The charge pump remains
active even when the charger is off. When the adapter
is absent, a p-channel MOSFET selects the battery.
♦ Programmable Charge Current < ꢂA
♦ Automatic System Power Source Selection with
n-Channel MOSFET
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A are avail-
able in a small, 4mm x 4mm x 0.8mm 20-pin, lead-free
TQFN package. An evaluation kit is available to reduce
design time.
♦ Internal Boost ꢅiode
♦ +8ꢁ to +26ꢁ Input-ꢁoltage Range

Figure 1. Typical Operating Circuit
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A use a new
thermally optimized high-frequency architecture. With this
new architecture, the switching frequency is adjusted to
control the power dissipation in the high-side
MOSFET. Benefits of the new architecture include:
reduced output capacitance and inductance, resulting in
smaller printed-circuit board (PCB) area and lower cost.
Detailed Description
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A include all
the functions necessary to charge Li+, NiMH, and NiCd
batteries. An all n-channel synchronous-rectified step-
down DC-DC converter is used to implement a preci-
sion constant-current, constant-voltage charger. The
charge current and input current-limit sense amplifiers
have low-input offset errors (250μV typ), allowing the
use of small-valued sense resistors.

Figure 2. Functional Diagram
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A feature a
voltage-regulation loop (CCV) and two current-regula-
tion loops (CCI and CCS). The loops operate indepen-
dently of each other. The CCV voltage-regulation loop
monitors BATT to ensure that its voltage never exceeds
the voltage set by VCTL. The CCI battery charge cur-
rent-regulation loop monitors current delivered to BATT
to ensure that it never exceeds the current limit set by
ISET. The charge current-regulation loop is in control as
long as the battery voltage is below the set point. When
the battery voltage reaches its set point, the voltage-
regulation loop takes control and maintains the battery
voltage at the set point. A third loop (CCS) takes control
and reduces the charge current when the adapter cur-
rent exceeds the input current limit.
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A have single-
point compensation. The two current loops are internal-
ly compensated while the voltage loop is compensated
with a series RC network at CC pin. See the CC Loop
Compensation section for the resistor and capacitor
selection. A functional diagram is shown in Figure 2.

There are two constraints in choosing R7 and R8. The
Setting Charge Voltage
resistors cannot be too small since they discharge the
battery, and they cannot be too large because FB pin
consumes less than 1μA of input bias current. Pick R8
to be approximately 10kΩ and then calculate R7.
The VCTL input adjusts the battery-output voltage,
BATT
V
, and determines the number of cells. For 3- and
4-cell applications, use the MAX17005A; for 2- and
3-cell applications, use the MAX17006A. Use the
MAX17015A to adjust the cell number and set the cell
voltage with a resistive voltage-divider from the output.
Based on the version of the part, the number of cells
and the level of VCTL should be set as in Table 1:
FB regulation error ( 0.5ꢀ max) and the tolerance of R7
and R8 both contribute to the error on the battery volt-
age. Use 0.1ꢀ feedback resistors for best accuracy.
Setting Charge Current
The voltage at ISET determines the voltage across cur-
rent-sense resistor RS2. ISET can accept either analog
or digital inputs. The full-scale differential voltage
between CSIP and CSIN is 80mV (8A for RS2 = 10mΩ)
for the analog input, and 60mV (6A for RS2 = 10mΩ) for
the digital PWM input.

When the MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A power
up and the charger is ready, if there is no clock edge
within 20ms, the circuit assumes ISET is an analog
input, and disables the PWM filter block. To configure
the charge current, force the voltage on ISET according
to the following equation:

dropout performance of IC. When the required voltage
falls outside the range available with the MAX17005A or

Choose a current-sense resistor (RS1) to have a suffi-
cient power rating to handle the full system current. The
current-sense resistor can be reduced to improve effi-

MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A, and 99.5ꢀ duty
cycle corresponds to full scale (60mV) across CSIP
and CSIN.
Choose a current-sense resistor (RS2) to have a suffi-
cient power-dissipation rating to handle the full-charge
current. The current-sense voltage can be reduced to
minimize the power-dissipation period. However, this can
degrade accuracy due to the current-sense amplifier’s
input offset (0.25mV typ). See Typical Operating
Characteristics to estimate the charge-current accuracy
at various set points.
Automatic Power-Source Selection
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A use an
external charge pump to drive the gate of an n-channel
adapter selection switch (N3 and Q1a). In Figure 1,
when the adapter is present, BST is biased 5V above
V
so that N3 and Q1a are on, and Q1b is off.
ADAPTER
As long as the adapter is present, even though the
charger is off, the power stage forces a refresh pulse
to the BST charge pump every 5ms.
Setting Input-Current Limit
The total input current, from a wall adapter or other DC
source, is the sum of the system supply current and the
current required by the charger. When the input current
exceeds the set input-current limit, the controller
decreases the charge current to provide priority to sys-
tem load current. System current normally fluctuates as
portions of the system are powered up or down. The
input-current-limit circuit reduces the power require-
ment of the AC wall adapter, which reduces adapter
cost. As the system supply rises, the available charge
current drops linearly to zero. Thereafter, the total input
current can increase without limit.
When the adapter voltage is removed, the charger
stops generating BST refresh pulses and N4 forces N2
off, Q1b turns on and supplies power to the system
from the battery.
In Figure 1, D1 must have low forward-voltage drop and
low reverse-leakage current to ensure sufficient gate
drive at N3 and Q1a. A 100mA, low reverse-leakage
Schottky diode is the right choice.
Analog Input Current-Monitor Output
Use IINP to monitor the system-input current, which is
sensed across CSSP and CSSN. The voltage at IINP is
proportional to the input current:
The total input current is the sum of the device supply cur-
rent, the charger input current, and the system load cur-
rent. The total input current can be estimated as follows:

In the MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A, the volt-
age across CSSP and CSSN is constant at 60mV.
Choose the current-sense resistor, RS1, to set the input
current limit. For example, for 4A input current limit,
choose RS1 = 15mΩ. For the input current-limit set-
tings, which cannot be achievable with standard sense
resistor values, use a resistive voltage-divider between
CSSP and CSSN to tune the setting (Figure 4).

AC Adapter Detection
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A include a
hysteretic comparator that detects the presence of an
AC power adapter. When ACIN is lower than 2.1V, the
open-drain ACOK output becomes high impedance.
Connect a 10kΩ pullup resistance between LDO and
ACOK. Use a resistive voltage-divider from the
adapter’s output to the ACIN pin to set the appropriate
detection threshold. Select the resistive voltage-divider
so that the voltage on ACIN does not to exceed its
absolute maximum rating (6V).
____________________DC-DC Converter
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A employ a
synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with an n-
channel high-side MOSFET switch and an n-channel
low-side synchronous rectifier. The charger features a
controlled inductor current-ripple architecture, current-
mode control scheme with cycle-by-cycle current limit.
6/MX7015A
The controller’s off-time (t
) is adjusted to keep the
OFF
high-side MOSFET junction temperature constant. In
this way, the controller switches faster when the high-
side MOSFET has available thermal capacity. This
allows the inductor current ripple and the output-volt-
age ripple to decrease so that smaller and cheaper
components can be used. The controller can also oper-
ate in discontinuous conduction mode for improved
light-load efficiency.
LDO Regulator and V
AA
An integrated low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator pro-
vides a 5.4V supply derived from DCIN, and delivers
over 40mA of load current. Do not use the LDO to
external loads greater than 10mA. The LDO powers the
gate drivers of the n-channel MOSFETs. See the
MOSFET Drivers section. Bypass LDO to PGND with a
4.7μF ceramic capacitor. V
is 4.2V reference sup-
AA
plied by DCIN. V biases most of the control circuitry,

ceramic capacitor.

Figure 6. DC-DC Converter Functional Diagram
The operation of the DC-to-DC controller is determined
by the following five comparators as shown in the func-
tional diagram in Figures 2 and 6:
The high-side MOSFET on-time is terminated when
the current-sense signal exceeds 11A. A new cycle
cannot start until the IMAX comparator’s output
goes low.
•
The IMIN comparator triggers a pulse in discontinu-
ous mode when the accumulated error is too high.
IMIN compares the control signal (LVC) against
• The ZCMP comparator provides zero-crossing detec-
tion during discontinuous conduction. ZCMP com-
pares the current-sense feedback signal to 1A (RS2
= 10mΩ). When the inductor current is lower than
the 1A threshold, the comparator output is high,
and DLO is turned off.
10mV (referred at V
- V
). When LVC is less
CSIN
CSIP
than this threshold, DHI and DLO are both forced
low. Indirectly, IMIN sets the peak inductor current
in discontinuous mode.
•
•
The CCMP comparator is used for current-mode
regulation in continuous-conduction mode. CCMP
compares LVC against the inductor current. The
high-side MOSFET on-time is terminated when the
CSI voltage is higher than LVC.
•
The OVP comparator is used to prevent overvoltage
at the output due to battery removal. OVP com-
pares BATT against the VCTL. When BATT is
100mV/cell above the set value, the OVP compara-
tor output goes high, and the high-side MOSFET
on-time is terminated. DHI and DLO remain off until
the OVP condition is removed.
The IMAX comparator provides a secondary cycle-
by-cycle current limit. IMAX compares CSI to
110mV (corresponding to 11A when RS2 = 10mΩ).

1.2MHz, Low-Cost,

At the end of the computed off-time, the controller initi-
ates a new cycle if the control point (LVC) is greater
than 10mV (V - V referred), and the charge
CC, CCI, CCS, and LVC Control Blocks
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A control
input current (CCS control loop), charge current (CCI
control loop), or charge voltage (CC control loop),
depending on the operating condition. The three con-
trol loops, CC, CCI, and CCS are brought together
internally at the lowest voltage clamp (LVC) amplifier.
The output of the LVC amplifier is the feedback control
signal for the DC-DC controller. The minimum voltage
at the CC, CCI, or CCS appears at the output of the
LVC amplifier and clamps the other control loops to
within 0.3V above the control point. Clamping the other
two control loops close to the lowest control loop
ensures fast transition with minimal overshoot when
switching between different control loops (see the
Compensation section). The CCS and CCI loops are
compensated internally, and the CC loop is compen-
sated externally.
CSIP
CSIN
current is less than the cycle-by-cycle current limit.
Restated another way, IMIN must be high, IMAX must
be low, and OVP must be low for the controller to initi-
ate a new cycle. If the peak inductor current exceeds
IMAX comparator threshold or the output voltage
exceeds the OVP threshold, then the on-time is termi-
nated. The cycle-by-cycle current limit effectively pro-
tects against overcurrent and short-circuit faults.
If during the off-time the inductor current goes to zero,
the ZCMP comparator output pulls high, turning off the
low-side MOSFET. Both the high- and low-side
MOSFETs are turned off until another cycle is ready to
begin. ZCOMP causes the MAX17005A/MAX17006A/
MAX17015A to enter into the discontinuous conduction
mode (see the Discontinuous Conduction section).
Continuous-Conduction Mode
With sufficiently large charge current, the MAX17005A/
MAX17006A/MAX17015s’ inductor current never cross-
es zero, which is defined as continuous-conduction
mode. The controller starts a new cycle by turning on
the high-side MOSFET and turning off the low-side
MOSFET. When the charge-current feedback signal
(CSI) is greater than the control point (LVC), the CCMP
comparator output goes high and the controller initiates
the off-time by turning off the high-side MOSFET and
turning on the low-side MOSFET. The operating fre-
quency is governed by the off-time and is dependent
Discontinuous Conduction
The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A can also
operate in discontinuous conduction mode to ensure that
the inductor current is always positive. The MAX17005A/
MAX17006A/MAX17015A enter discontinuous conduction
mode when the output of the LVC control point falls below
10mV (referred at V
- V
). For RS2 = 10mΩ, this

corresponds to a peak inductor current of 1A.
In discontinuous mode, a new cycle is not started until
the LVC voltage rises above IMIN. Discontinuous mode
operation can occur during conditioning charge of
overdischarged battery packs, when the charge cur-
rent has been reduced sufficiently by the CCS control
loop, or when the charger is in constant-voltage mode

MOSFET Drivers
The DHI and DLO outputs are optimized for driving
moderate-sized power MOSFETs. The MOSFET drive
capability is the same for both the low-side and high-
sides switches. This is consistent with the variable duty
factor that occurs in the notebook computer environ-
ment where the battery voltage changes over a wide
range. There must be a low-resistance, low-inductance
path from the DLO driver to the MOSFET gate to pre-
vent shoot-through. Otherwise, the sense circuitry in the
MAX17005A/MAX17006A interpret the MOSFET gate as
“off” while there is still charge left on the gate. Use very
short, wide traces measuring 10 to 20 squares or fewer
(1.25mm to 2.5mm wide if the MOSFET is 25mm from
the device). Unlike the DLO output, the DHI output uses
a 50ns (typ) delay time to prevent the low-side MOSFET
from turning on until DHI is fully off. The same consider-
ations should be used for routing the DHI signal to the
high-side MOSFET.

The high-side driver (DHI) swings from LX to 5V above
LX (BST) and has a typical impedance of 1.5Ω sourcing
and 0.8Ω sinking. The strong high-side MOSFET driver
eliminates most of the power dissipation due to switch-
ing losses. The low-side driver (DLO) swings from LDO
to ground and has a typical impedance of 3Ω sinking
and 3Ω sourcing. This helps prevent DLO from being
pulled up when the high-side switch turns on due to
capacitive coupling from the drain to the gate of the
low-side MOSFET. This places some restrictions on the
MOSFETs that can be used. Using a low-side
MOSFET with smaller gate-to-drain capacitance can
prevent these problems.

Generally, a low gate charge high-side MOSFET is pre-
ferred to minimize switching losses. However, the

Switching losses in the high-side MOSFET can become
an insidious heat problem when maximum AC adapter
voltages are applied. If the high-side MOSFET chosen

pation often limits how small the MOSFET can be. The
optimum occurs when the switching losses equal the
conduction losses. High-side switching losses do not
usually become an issue until the input is greater than
approximately 15V. Calculating the power dissipation in
N1 due to switching losses is difficult since it must
allow for difficult quantifying factors that influence the
turn-on and turn-off times. These factors include the
internal gate resistance, gate charge, threshold volt-
age, source inductance, and PCB layout characteris-
tics. The following switching-loss calculation provides
only a very rough estimate and is no substitute for
breadboard evaluation, preferably including a verifica-

Inductor Selection
The selection of the inductor has multiple trade-offs
between efficiency, transient response, size, and cost.
Small inductance is cheap and small, and has a better
transient response due to higher slew rate; however, the
efficiency is lower because of higher RMS current. High
inductance results in lower ripple so that the need of the
output capacitors for output-voltage ripple goes low.

The MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A combine all
the inductor trade-offs in an optimum way by controlling

the use of a smaller and cheaper inductor, and conse-
quently results in smaller output ripple and better tran-
sient response.

Setting Input Current Limit
The input current limit should be set based on the cur-
rent capability of the AC adapter and the tolerance of
the input current limit. The upper limit of the input cur-
rent threshold should never exceed the adapter’s mini-
mum available output current. For example, if the
adapter’s output current rating is 5A 10ꢀ, the input
current limit should be selected so that its upper limit is
less than 5A × 0.9 = 4.5A. Since the input current-limit
accuracy of the MAX17005A/MAX17006A/MAX17015A
is 3ꢀ, the typical value of the input current limit should
be set at 4.5A/1.03 ≈ 4.36A. The lower limit for input cur-
rent must also be considered. For chargers at the low
end of the specification, the input current limit for this
example could be 4.36A × 0.95 or approximately 4.14A.

Good PCB layout is required to achieve specified noise

plane is essential for optimum performance. In most
applications, the circuit is located on a multilayer
board, and full use of the four or more copper layers is
recommended. Use the top layer for high-current con-

Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitor absorbs the inductor ripple cur-
rent and must tolerate the surge current delivered from
the battery when it is initially plugged into the charger.
As such, both capacitance and ESR are important
parameters in specifying the output capacitor as a filter
and to ensure the stability of the DC-to-DC converter
(see the Compensation section.) Beyond the stability
requirements, it is often sufficient to make sure that the
output capacitor’s ESR is much lower than the battery’s
ESR. Either tantalum or ceramic capacitors can be
used on the output. Ceramic devices are preferable
because of their good voltage ratings and resilience to
surge currents. Choose the output capacitor based on:
Use the following step-by-step guide:
1) Place the high-power connections first, with their
grounds adjacent:
a) Minimize the current-sense resistor trace lengths,
and ensure accurate current sensing with Kelvin

arate ground (GND) island. There is very little current
flowing in these traces, so the ground island need not
be very large. When placed on an inner layer, a siz-
able ground island can help simplify the layout
because the low-current connections can be made
through vias. The ground pad on the backside of the
package should also be connected to this quiet
ground island.
e) Connect C to high-side MOSFET (10mm max

length).
f) Minimize the LX node (MOSFETs, rectifier cath-
ode, inductor (15mm max length)). Keep LX on
one side of the PCB to reduce EMI radiation.
Ideally, surface-mount power components are flush
against one another with their ground terminals
almost touching. These high-current grounds are
then connected to each other with a wide, filled
zone of top-layer copper, so they do not go through
vias. The resulting top-layer subground plane is
connected to the normal inner-layer ground plane
at the paddle. Other high-current paths should also
be minimized, but focusing primarily on short
ground and current-sense connections eliminates
about 90ꢀ of all PCB layout problems.
3) Keep the gate drive traces (DHI and DLO) as short
as possible (L < 20mm), and route them away from
the current-sense lines and V . These traces
AA
should also be relatively wide (W > 1.25mm).
4) Place ceramic bypass capacitors close to the IC.
The bulk capacitors can be placed further away.
Place the current-sense input filter capacitors under
the part, connected directly to the GND pin.
5) Use a single-point star ground placed directly
below the part at the PGND pin. Connect the power
ground (ground plane) and the quiet ground island
at this location.
