Li-ion/Li Polymer Battery Charger
Features
The ISL6292B uses Intersil’s patent-pending dual-mode
charge technology to minimize the heat in a linear charger.
The ISL6292B is a modification of the original ISL6292 and
is optimized for cellular phone travel charger applications.
The low-heat generation feature of the dual-mode charger
enables the charger IC to be placed inside the connector of
the travel charger to completely remove the influence of the
adapter cable on the charging performance.
• Complete Charger for Single-Cell Li-ion Batteries
• Integrated Pass Element and Current Sensor
• No External Blocking Diode Required
• Very Low Thermal Dual-Mode Operation
• 1% Voltage Accuracy with Remote Sense
• Programmable Current Limit up to 1.5A
• Programmable End-of-Charge Current
• Programmable Safety Timer
Working with a current-limited ac/dc converter, the dual-
mode charger charges a Li-ion battery with the same current
profile as a traditional linear charger. The constant charge
current is determined by the current limit of the ac/dc
converter. The constant output voltage is fixed at 4.2V. When
the battery voltage is below 2.8V, the charger preconditions
the battery with a low trickle-charge current. The charge
status is indicated by a tri-color LED. A safety timer prevents
charging a dead battery for an excessively long period.
• Drives a Tri-Color LED
• Charge Current Thermal Foldback
• NTC Thermistor Interface for Battery Temperature Monitor
• Two-Level Ambient Temperature Setting
• Guaranteed to Operate at 2.65V After Start-Up
• Ambient Temperature Range: -20°C to 70°C
• Thermally-Enhanced QFN Packages
• QFN Package:
- Compliant to JEDEC PUB95 MO-220
QFN - Quad Flat No Leads - Package Outline
- Near Chip Scale Package footprint, which improves
PCB efficiency and has a thinner profile
The ISL6292B also features a thermal foldback function that
automatically reduces the charge current when the internal
die temperature exceeds a 100°C limit to prevent further
temperature rise. This function removes the concern of
thermal failure in the targeted space-limited applications. An
ambient temperature monitoring circuit allows users to set
two separate temperature limit levels, one for during charge
and one for not during charge. The thermally-enhanced QFN
package further improves the thermal performance of the
ISL6292B in space-limited applications.

NOTE: Intersil Pb-free products employ special Pb-free material
sets; molding compounds/die attach materials and 100% matte tin
plate termination finish, which are RoHS compliant and compatible
with both SnPb and Pb-free soldering operations. Intersil Pb-free
products are MSL classified at Pb-free peak reflow temperatures that
meet or exceed the Pb-free requirements of IPC/JEDEC J STD-020.
