The LTC4054LES5-4.2#TR is a high-quality, standalone linear lithium-ion battery charger from Linear Technology that simplifies the process of charging single-cell lithium-ion batteries. This compact, thermally efficient device is designed for space-constrained applications and comes in a low-profile SOT-23 package, making it an ideal choice for portable electronic devices.
Key Features:
- Precise Charge Voltage: The LTC4054LES5-4.2#TR ensures accurate charging by providing a fixed float voltage of 4.2V, which is critical for maintaining the longevity and performance of lithium-ion batteries.
- Adjustable Charge Current: The charge current can be programmed up to 800mA with a single external resistor, allowing for flexibility in charge rate based on the specific requirements of the application and battery capacity.
- Automatic Recharge: To keep the battery at peak capacity, the device initiates a recharge cycle when the battery voltage falls below 4.05V.
- Thermal Regulation: To protect against overheating, the LTC4054LES5-4.2#TR includes an internal thermal feedback mechanism that regulates the charge current to limit the die temperature during high power operation or high ambient temperature conditions.
- No External MOSFET, Sense Resistor, or Blocking Diode Required: This charger integrates power components to minimize external part count, which simplifies design and reduces overall system size and cost.
- Status Output: An onboard status output indicates charging in progress, allowing for external indication or system control.
- C/10 Charge Termination: The charger automatically terminates the charge cycle when the charge current drops to one-tenth of the programmed value after the final float voltage is reached.
