LTC4078X
PIN FUNCTIONS
USBIN (Pin 1): USB Input Supply Pin. This input provides
an internal N-channel MOSFET. When the charge cycle is
completed, CHRG becomes high impedance. This output
is capable of driving an LED.
power to the battery charger assuming a voltage greater
than V
and less than V
is present (typically

3.95V to ꢀV respectively). However, the DCIN input will
take priority if a voltage greater than V is present at
DCIN (typically 4.15V). The USBIN input allows charge
currents up to 850mꢁ. This pin should be bypassed with
a 1µF capacitor.
ENABLE (Pin 6): Enable Input. When the LTC4078X is
charging from the DCIN source, a logic low on this pin
enables the charger. When the LTC4078X is charging
from the USBIN source, a logic high on this pin enables
the charger. If this input is left floating, an internal 2MΩ
pulldown resistor defaults the LTC4078X to charge when
a wall adapter is applied and to shut down if only the USB
source is applied.
UVDC
IUSB (Pin 2): Charge Current Program for USB Power.
The charge current is set by connecting a resistor, R
,
IUSB
to ground. When charging in constant-current mode, this
pin servos to 1V. The voltage on this pin can be used to
measure the battery current delivered from the USB input
using the following formula:
BATDET (Pin 7): Battery Detection Input. When the volt-
age on this pin falls below V
(typically 1.75V), the
BDET
charger is on and ready for charging a battery. If this
input is left floating, an internal pull-up resistor will dis-
able charging.

threshold, charging stops and the CHRG output becomes
high impedance. This pin is internally clamped to approxi-
mately 1.5V. Driving this pin to voltages beyond the clamp
voltage should be avoided.
BAT (Pin 9): Battery Charger Output. This pin provides
charge current to the battery and regulates the final float
voltage to 4.2V.
