ACT3780
Product Brief, 05-Dec-12
ActivePathTM Battery Charger
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
• ActivePathTM System Power Selection of Best
The ACT3780 is a complete battery-charging and
system power management solution for portable
hand-held equipment using single-cell Lithium-
based batteries. The ACT3780 incorporates Active-
Semi's proprietary ActivePath architecture which
automatically selects the best available input supply
for the system.
Available Input Supply
• 50mΩ Battery Switch for Highest Efficiency
• Dynamic Control of Charging Current Allowing
System to Draw Maximum Load from AC/USB
Input
• ±0.5% Battery Charge Voltage Accuracy
• Up to 12V Input with Over Voltage Protection
• Thermal Regulation for Charge Control
The ActivePath architecture performs three
important functions: First, the battery is charged
while powering with the system, minimizing current
draw from the battery while ensuring that sufficient
current is available to power the system. Second, if
no input supply is available, system power is
automatically switched to the battery. And finally, if
the system load-requirement exceeds the capability
of the input supply, ActivePath automatically
supplements the input with the battery to satisfy the
system's power requirements.
• Charge Status Outputs for LED or System
Interface
• Battery Voltage Level Indication
• Programmable Fast Charge Current
• Programmable Charging Timer
• Low Reverse Leakage Current
• Short-Circuit and Thermal Protection
• Preconditioning for Deeply Depleted Battery
• Low Quiescent Current Standby Mode
In addition to ActivePath, the ACT3780 charger
features
a
complete, high-accuracy (±0.5%),
thermally regulated, stand-alone single cell linear
Li+ charger with an integrated 12V power
MOSFET. The ACT3780 is available in a thermally
enhanced 4mm × 4mm Thin-QFN44-20.
