Hybrid Power Boost (HPB) and Narrow VDC (NVDC) Combo Battery Charger with
SMBus Interface
The ISL95521A is a highly versatile combo battery charger
Features
configurable for operating as either a Hybrid Power Boost (HPB)
• Configurable as HPB charger or NVDC charger
charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC) charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or
4-cell batteries. Both configurations allow the battery to work with
the adapter together to supply the system load when it exceeds
the adapter capability, referred to as system Turbo mode. The
HPB charger configuration reverse-boosts battery energy to the
system bus to help the adapter provide the system power in Turbo
mode. The NVDC charger configuration quickly turns on BGATE to
enable the battery to help the adapter provide the system power
in Turbo mode.
• Compliant with Intel PROCHOT# and PSYS requirements
• Adapter current monitor and battery discharging current
monitor
• Uses NFET for all the switches
- Supports battery removal during Battery Learn mode
- Actively controlled inrush current to prevent FET damage
• SMBus programmable settings and high accuracy
• Comprehensive protection features:
The ISL95521A uses N-channel MOSFETs (NFETs) for all the
switches to achieve the best performance and lowest BOM cost.
The internal charge pump is capable of turning on all the NFETs
fast or slow depending on the circumstance or the need. The
ability to quickly turn on NFETs prevents system bus voltage drop
when the battery is suddenly removed in Turbo mode or in Battery
Learn mode.
- PROCHOT# indicator for system low voltage, adapter
overcurrent, battery overcurrent, and system overheating
- Hardware-based adapter current and battery current
limits
- Supports sudden battery removal in system Turbo mode
The ISL95521A provides many protection features including a
PROCHOT# indicator for system low voltage, adapter overcurrent,
battery overcurrent or overheating, with an array of SMBus
programmable parameters for maximum flexibility. It also
features hardware based adapter current limit and
• 16 switching frequency options from 350kHz to 1MHz
• Low quiescent current

• SMBus and auto-increment I C compatible
• Robust Ripple Regulator (R3) modulation scheme provides
excellent light-load efficiency and fast dynamic response
battery-current limit in addition to SMBus programmable limits.

The ISL95521A provides a high accuracy adapter current
monitor, battery current monitor, and system power monitor
outputs. To provide maximum flexibility for working with high
power and low power systems, the ISL95521A provides
several configurable current-sense resistor value options to
achieve the best trade-off of current sensing accuracy vs power
loss.
• 32 Ld 4x4mm QFN package
• Pb-free (RoHS compliant)
Applications
• Devices with rechargeable 2-, 3-, or 4-cell batteries
