Hybrid Power Boost (HPB) and Narrow VDC (NVDC) Combo Battery Charger
with SMBus Interface
The ISL95521B is a highly versatile combo battery
charger configurable for operating as either a Hybrid
Features
• Configurable as an HPB charger or NVDC charger
Power Boost (HPB) charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC)
charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or 4-cell batteries. Both
configurations allow the battery to work with the adapter
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
The ISL95521B 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.
• SMBus programmable settings and high accuracy
• Comprehensive protection features:
• PROCHOT# indicator for system low voltage,
adapter overcurrent, battery overcurrent, or
system overheating
• Hardware-based adapter current and battery
current limits
The ISL95521B 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. The ISL95521B
also features a hardware-based adapter-current limit and
battery-current limit in addition to SMBus programmable
limits.
• Supports sudden battery removal in system Turbo
mode
• 16 switching frequency options from 350kHz to 1MHz
• Low quiescent current
2
• SMBus and auto-increment I C compatible
• Robust Ripple Regulator (R3) modulation scheme
provides excellent light-load efficiency and fast
dynamic response
The ISL95521B provides a high accuracy adapter current
monitor, battery current monitor, and system power
monitor outputs. To provide maximum flexibility for
working with high and low power systems, the
ISL95521B provides several configurable current-sense
resistor value options to achieve the best trade-off of
current sensing accuracy vs power loss.
• 32 Ld 4mmx4mm QFN package
• Pb-free (RoHS compliant)
Applications
The ISL95521B uses the Renesas Robust Ripple
Regulator (R3™) modulation scheme to provide
excellent light-load efficiency and fast dynamic
response.
• Devices with rechargeable 2-, 3-, or 4-cell batteries
