GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The LM3647 is a charge controller for Nickel-Cadmium
(Ni-Cd), Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) or Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion)
batteries. The device uses a pulsed-current charging or a
constant-current charging technique. The device can also be
configured to discharge before charging. Throughout the
charging sequence the LM3647 monitors voltage and/or
temperature and time in order to terminate charging.

battery

chemistries: Ni-Cd, Ni-MH or Li-Ion.

In Ni-Cd/Ni-MH mode, four different charging phases are
used:

Softstart charge

Fast charge

Topping charge

Maintenance charge

In Li-Ion mode, four different charging stages are used:

Qualification

Fast Charge Phase 1, Constant Current

Fast Charge phase 2, Constant Voltage

Maintenance charge

KEY FEATURES

Auto-adaptive fast charge

High-resolution, accurate voltage monitoring prevents
Li-Ion under-charge or overcharge

Fast charge, pre-charge and maintenance currents are
provided. Different currents are selectable via external
resistors

Fast-charge termination by temperature/time, maximum
voltage, maximum temperature and maximum time

Dynamically detects battery insertion, removal, short
circuit and bad battery without additional hardware

Supports charging of battery packs with 2-8 cells of
Ni-Cd, Ni-MH or 1-4 cells of Li-Ion

Three LED indicators and one Buzzer output indicate
operational modes

Ni-MH/Ni-Cd charge mode, Li-Ion charge mode or
discharge mode can be selected manually

PWM switching controller

DOCUMENTATION INFORMATION

The following documentation describes how to use the
LM3647 demo-board and also gives a few tips on design
calculations. Please note that not all components on the
demo-board are used when designing a charger

application. The demo-board has extra components to
make it simple for the user to try out different batteries and
configurations. There are actually two different charge
current regulation methods and these are referred to as fast
and slow (LM317).

Timeout

Timeout settings J18 (set according to charge-rate C), See
Section 3.0 for more information.

Temperature Input

The optional Temperature input is connected to J3 and if not
used Short J8.

Voltage Regulation Range

Voltage regulation loop setting J14 (not used with external
LM317 regulation I.e. J7 = slow), defines maximum voltage
output. See also Section

Voltage Measurement

The battery voltage is selected with the Voltage jumpers J11
& J12 depending on number of cells/chemistry. For instance,
a 9V Ni-Cd block battery has 6 cells in it and therefore needs
the jumper at

Ni 6-Cells

Summary

Page 4 - The dimensioning is accomplished in the following manner:

The actual timeouts (with RCIN @ 2.5 MHz) is: Phase Timeout Fast Charge ∼ 330 Minutes Topping Charge ∼ 80 Minutes EXAMPLE 2: The actual timeouts (with RCIN @ 2.5 MHz) is: Phase Timeout Fast Charge Constant Current − 130 Minutes Topping Charge Constant Voltage − 190 Minutes 1.2.2.4 Setting The Charge...

Page 5 - Never; The dimensioning is done in the following manner.

• For Li-Ion: The voltage divider network for Li-Ion is very important. If thebattery voltage is scaled too low, the battery will not attain itsfull capacity when charged, and if scaled too high, thebattery may become damaged. Never exceed the recommended maximum voltage or current for a Li-Ionbatte...
