Data Sheet
INTRODUCTION
The ADP5061 is a fully programmable I2C charger for single
cell lithium-ion or lithium-polymer batteries suitable for a wide
range of portable applications.
The linear charger architecture enables up to 2.1 A output
current at 4.3 V to 5.0 V (I2C programmable) on the system
power supply, and up to 1.3 A charge current into the battery
from a dedicated charger.
The ADP5061 operates from an input voltage of 4 V up to 6.7 V
but is tolerant of voltages of up to 20 V. The 20 V voltage tolerance
alleviates the concerns of the USB bus spiking during discon-
nection or connection scenarios.
The ADP5061 features an internal FET between the linear charger
output and the battery. This feature permits battery isolation
and, hence, system powering under a dead battery or no battery
scenario, which allows for immediate system function upon
connection to a USB power supply.
The ADP5061 is fully compliant with USB 3.0 and the USB
Battery Charging Specification 1.2. The ADP5061 is chargeable
via the mini USB VBUS pin from a wall charger, car charger, or
USB host port. Based on the type of USB source, which is detected
ADP5061
by an external USB detection device, the ADP5061 can be set to
apply the correct current limit for optimal charging and USB
compliance. The USB charger permits correct operation under
all USB-compliant sources such as wall chargers, host chargers,
hub chargers, and standard host and hubs.
A processor can control the USB charger using the I2C to
program the charging current and numerous other parameters,
including
• Trickle charge current level
• Trickle charge voltage threshold
• Weak charge (constant current) current level
• Fast charge (constant current) current level
• Fast charge (constant voltage) voltage level at 1% accuracy
• Fast charge safety timer period
• Watchdog safety timer parameters
• Weak battery threshold detection
• Charge complete threshold
• Recharge threshold
• Charge enable/disable
• Battery pack temperature detection and automatic charger
