Description
The MCP73811/2 devices are linear charge manage-
ment controllers that are designed for use in space
limited and cost sensitive applications. The
MCP73811/2 provide specific charge algorithms for
single cell Li-Ion or Li-Polymer battery to achieve
optimal capacity in the shortest charging time possible.
Along with its small physical size, the low number of
external components required make the MCP73811/2
ideally suited for portable applications. For applications
charging from a USB port, the MCP73811 adheres to
all the specifications governing the USB power bus.
The MCP73811/2 employ a constant current/constant
voltage charge algorithm. The constant voltage regula-
tion is fixed at 4.20V, with a tight regulation tolerance of
1%. For the MCP73811, the constant current value is
selected as 85 mA (low power USB port) or 450 mA
(high power USB port) with a digital input signal on the
PROG input. For the MCP73812, the constant current
value is set with one external resistor. The
MCP73811/2 limit the charge current based on die
temperature during high power or high ambient
conditions. This thermal regulation optimizes the
charge cycle time while maintaining device reliability.
The MCP73811/2 are fully specified over the ambient
temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The
MCP73811/2 are available in a 5-Lead, SOT-23
package.

3.0 PIN DESCRIPTION
The descriptions of the pins are listed in Table 3-1.
TABLE 3-1: PIN FUNCTION TABLES
3.1 Charge Enable Input (CE)
A logic High enables battery charging. A logic Low
disables battery charging. The charge enable input is
compatible with 1.8V logic.
3.2 Battery Management 0V Reference
(VSS)
Connect to negative terminal of battery and input
supply.
3.3 Battery Charge Control Output

Connect to positive terminal of battery. Drain terminal
of internal P-channel MOSFET pass transistor. Bypass
to VSS with a minimum of 1 µF to ensure loop stability
when the battery is disconnected.
3.4 Battery Management Input Supply
(VDD)
A supply voltage of [VREG (typ.) + 0.3V] to 6V is
recommended. Bypass to VSS with a minimum of 1 µF.
3.5 Current Regulation Set (PROG)
For the MCP73811, the current regulation set input
(PROG) functions as a digital input selection. A logic
Low selects a 85 mA charge current; a logic High
selects a 450 mA charge current.
For the MCP73812, the charge current is set by placing
a resistor from PROG to VSS.

4.0 DEVICE OVERVIEW
The MCP73811/2 are simple, but fully integrated linear
charge management controllers. Figure 4-1 depicts the
operational flow algorithm.
FIGURE 4-1: Flow Chart.
4.1 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
The MCP73811/2 does not have an internal under
voltage lockout (UVLO) circuit.
4.2 Charge Qualification
When the input power is applied, the input supply must
rise 150 mV above the battery voltage before the
MCP73811/2 becomes operational.
The automatic power down circuit places the device in
a shutdown mode if the input supply falls to within
+50 mV of the battery voltage.
The automatic circuit is always active. Whenever the
input supply is within +50 mV of the voltage at the VBAT
pin, the MCP73811/2 is placed in a shutdown mode.
During power down condition, the battery reverse dis-
charge current is less than 2 µA.
For a charge cycle to begin, the automatic power down
conditions must be met and the charge enable input
must be above the input high threshold.
4.3 PRECONDITIONING
The MCP73811/2 does not support preconditioning of
deeply depleted cells.
4.4 Constant Current MODE - Fast
Charge
During the constant current mode, the selected
(MCP73811) or programmed (MCP73812) charge
current is supplied to the battery or load.
For the MCP73812, the charge current is established
using a single resistor from PROG to VSS. The program
resistor and the charge current are calculated using the
following equation:
EQUATION 4-1:
Constant current mode is maintained until the voltage
at the VBAT pin reaches the regulation voltage, VREG
.
4.5 Constant Voltage Mode
When the voltage at the VBAT pin reaches the
regulation voltage, VREG
, constant voltage regulation
begins. The regulation voltage is factory set to 4.20V
with a tolerance of ±1.0%.
4.6 Charge Termination
The charge cycle is terminated by removing the battery
from the charger, removing input power, or driving the
charge enable input (CE) to a logic Low. An automatic
charge termination method is not implemented.
4.7 Automatic Recharge
The MCP73811/2 does not support automatic recharge
cycles since automatic charge termination has not
been implemented. In essence, the MCP73811/2 is
always in a charge cycle whenever the qualification
parameters have been met.

4.8 Thermal Regulation
The MCP73811/2 limits the charge current based on
the die temperature. The thermal regulation optimizes
the charge cycle time while maintaining device
reliability. Figure 4-2 depicts the thermal regulation for
the MCP73811/2.
.
FIGURE 4-2: Thermal Regulation.
4.9 Thermal Shutdown
The MCP73811/2 suspends charge if the die
temperature exceeds 150°C. Charging will resume
when the die temperature has cooled by approximately
10°C. The thermal shutdown is a secondary safety
feature in the event that there is a failure within the
thermal regulation circuitry.

5.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION
5.1 Analog Circuitry
5.1.1 BATTERY MANAGEMENT INPUT
SUPPLY (VDD)
The VDD input is the input supply to the MCP73811/2.
The MCP73811/2 automatically enters a Power-down
mode if the voltage on the VDD input falls to within
+50 mV of the battery voltage. This feature prevents
draining the battery pack when the VDD supply is not
present.
5.1.2 MCP73812 CURRENT REGULATION
SET (PROG)
For the MCP73812, the charge current regulation can
be scaled by placing a programming resistor (RPROG)
from the PROG input to VSS. The program resistor and
the charge current are calculated using the following
equation:
EQUATION 5-1:
5.1.3 BATTERY CHARGE CONTROL
OUTPUT (VBAT)
The battery charge control output is the drain terminal
of an internal P-channel MOSFET. The MCP73811/2
provides constant current and voltage regulation to the
battery pack by controlling this MOSFET in the linear
region. The battery charge control output should be
connected to the positive terminal of the battery pack.
5.2 Digital Circuitry
5.2.1 CHARGE ENABLE (CE)
The charge enable input pin (CE) can be used to
terminate a charge at any time during the charge cycle,
as well as to initiate a charge cycle or initiate a recharge
cycle.
Driving the input to a logic High enables the device.
Driving the input to a logic Low disables the device and
terminates a charge cycle. When disabled, the device’s
supply current is reduced to 50 µA, typically.
5.2.2 MCP73811 CURRENT REGULATION
SELECT (PROG)
For the MCP73811, driving the PROG input to a logic
Low selects the low charge current setting (85 mA).
Driving the PROG input to a logic High selects the high
charge current setting (450 mA).

MCP73811/2
6.0 APPLICATIONS
The MCP73811/2 is designed to operate in conjunction
with a host microcontroller or in stand-alone
applications. The MCP73811/2 provides the preferred
charge algorithm for Lithium-Ion and Lithium-Polymer
cells Constant-current followed by Constant-voltage.
Figure 6-1 depicts a typical stand-alone application
circuit, while Figures 6-2 depict the accompanying
charge profile.
FIGURE 6-1: Typical Application Circuit.
FIGURE 6-2: Typical Charge Profile
(950 mAh Li-Ion Battery).
6.1 Application Circuit Design
Due to the low efficiency of linear charging, the most
important factors are thermal design and cost, which
are a direct function of the input voltage, output current
and thermal impedance between the battery charger
and the ambient cooling air. The worst-case situation is
when the device has transitioned from the
Preconditioning mode to the Constant-current mode. In
this situation, the battery charger has to dissipate the
maximum power. A trade-off must be made between
the charge current, cost and thermal requirements of
the charger.
6.1.1 COMPONENT SELECTION
Selection of the external components in Figure 6-1 is
crucial to the integrity and reliability of the charging
system. The following discussion is intended as a guide
for the component selection process.
6.1.1.1 Charge Current
The preferred fast charge current for Lithium-Ion cells
is at the 1C rate, with an absolute maximum current at
the 2C rate. For example, a 500 mAh battery pack has
a preferred fast charge current of 500 mA. Charging at
this rate provides the shortest charge cycle times
without degradation to the battery pack performance or
life.

6.1.1.2 Thermal Considerations
The worst-case power dissipation in the battery
charger occurs when the input voltage is at the
maximum and the device has transitioned from the
Preconditioning mode to the Constant-current mode. In
this case, the power dissipation is:
EQUATION 6-1:
Power dissipation with a 5V, ±10% input voltage source
is:
EQUATION 6-2:
This power dissipation with the battery charger in the
SOT-23-5 package will cause thermal regulation to be
entered as depicted in Figure 6-3.
6.1.1.3 External Capacitors
The MCP73811/2 is stable with or without a battery
load. In order to maintain good AC stability in the
Constant-voltage mode, a minimum capacitance of
1 µF is recommended to bypass the VBAT pin to VSS.
This capacitance provides compensation when there is
no battery load. In addition, the battery and intercon-
nections appear inductive at high frequencies. These
elements are in the control feedback loop during
Constant-voltage mode. Therefore, the bypass
capacitance may be necessary to compensate for the
inductive nature of the battery pack.
Virtually any good quality output filter capacitor can be
used, independent of the capacitor’s minimum
Effective Series Resistance (ESR) value. The actual
value of the capacitor (and its associated ESR)
depends on the output load current. A 1 µF ceramic,
tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitor at the
output is usually sufficient to ensure stability for output
currents up to a 500 mA.
6.1.1.4 Reverse-Blocking Protection
The MCP73811/2 provides protection from a faulted or
shorted input. Without the protection, a faulted or
shorted input would discharge the battery pack through
the body diode of the internal pass transistor.
6.1.1.5 Charge Inhibit
The charge enable input pin (CE) can be used to
terminate a charge at any time during the charge cycle,
as well as to initiate a charge cycle or initiate a recharge
cycle.
Driving the input to a logic High enables the device.
Driving the input to a logic Low disables the device and
terminates a charge cycle. When disabled, the device’s
supply current is reduced to 50 µA, typically.
6.2 PCB Layout Issues
For optimum voltage regulation, place the battery pack
as close as possible to the device’s VBAT and VSS pins,
recommended to minimize voltage drops along the
high current-carrying PCB traces.
If the PCB layout is used as a heatsink, adding many
vias in the heatsink pad can help conduct more heat to
the backplane of the PCB, thus reducing the maximum
junction temperature. Figures 6-3 and 6-4 depict a
typical layout with PCB heatsinking.
