SMBus Interfaced Battery Charger with Internal FETs
ISL95871C
Features
• Internal Synchronous Buck Output Stage Power FETs
• 0.5% Battery Voltage Accuracy
• 3% Adapter Current Limit Accuracy
• 3% Charge Current Accuracy
• SMBus 2-Wire Serial Interface
• Battery Short Circuit Protection
• Fast Response for Pulse-Charging

• Monitor Outputs
The ISL95871C is a highly integrated Lithium-ion
battery charger controller, programmable over the
System Management Bus (SMBus) with internal
switching FETs. High efficiency is achieved with a DC/DC
synchronous-rectifier buck converter, equipped with
diode emulation for enhanced light load efficiency and
system bus boosting prevention. The ISL95871C
charges one to four Lithium-ion series cells, and delivers
up to 8A charge current. Integrated MOSFETs and
bootstrap diode result in fewer components and smaller
implementation area. Low offset current-sense amplifiers
provide high accuracy with 10mΩ sense resistors. The
ISL95871C provides 0.5% battery voltage accuracy.
- Adapter Current (3% Accuracy)
- AC-Adapter Detection
The ISL95871C also provides a digital output that
indicates the presence of the AC-adapter as well as an
analog output which indicates the adapter current within
4% accuracy.
