RT9451
Switch-Mode Single Cell Li-ion Battery Charger with USB OTG
General Description
The RT9451 integrates a high efficiency USB friendly switch
mode charger with On-The-Go (OTG) support for single
cell Li-ion and Li-polymer batteries, D+D− detection, and
a 50mA LDO regulator into a single chip.
The charger features a synchronous 375kHz PWM
controller with integrated power MOSFETs, input current
sensing and regulation, Minimum Input Voltage Regulation
(MIVR), high accuracy charge current and voltage
regulation, and charge termination. It charges the battery
in three phases : low current pre-charge, constant current
fast charge, and constant voltage trickle charge. The input
current is automatically limited to the value set by the
host. The charger can be configured to terminate charge
based on user-selectable minimum current level and
automatically restart the charge cycle if the battery voltage
falls below the recharge threshold. A safety timer with
reset control provides a safety backup for I
2
C interface.
The charger automatically enters sleep mode or high
impedance mode when the input supply is removed. The
charge status is reported to the host using the I
2
C interface
and the STAT pin. The D+D− detection circuit allows
automatic detection of a USB wall charger. If a wall charger
is detected, the input current limit will automatically
increase from 500mA to 975mA.
In OTG mode, the PWM controller boosts the battery
voltage to 5V and provides up to 1.6A of current to the
USB output. At very light load, the Boost operates in burst
mode to optimize efficiency. OTG mode can be enabled
either through I
2
C interface or GPIO control.

Pin Function
Power input. Bypass to PGND with a 10F ceramic capacitor. It also provides
power to the load in boost mode.
Interrupt pin (open-drain). This pin is pulled low when a fault occurs.
I/O reference voltage. A VIO level above 0.6V disables automatic D+/D
detection.
USB port D+ input connection.
USB port D input connection.
I
2
C interface clock input. Open-drain output, connect a 10k pull-up resistor.
I
2
C interface data input. Open-drain output, connect a 10k pull-up resistor.
Charge status indicator. Pull low when charge is in progress. Open-drain for
other conditions. This pin can also be controlled through I
2
C register. The STAT

Boost mode enable control. Boost mode is turned on whenever this pin is active.
Polarity is user defined through I
2
C register. The pin is disabled by default and
can be enabled through I
2
C register bit.
Auxiliary power supply. Connect to the battery pack to provide power in high
impedance mode. Bypass to GND with a 1F ceramic capacitor.

across an external sense resistor. A 0.1F ceramic capacitor to PGND is
required.
Battery voltage and current sense input. Bypass to PGND with a ceramic
capacitor (minimum 0.1F) if there are long inductive leads to battery.
LDO output. LDO is regulated to 4.9V and drives 60mA of current. Bypass LDO
to GND with a minimum 1F ceramic capacitor. LDO is enabled when VIN is
above the VIN UVLO threshold.

this output to PGND. External loads on VDDP is not allowed.
Pure ground. The exposed pad must be soldered to a large PCB and connected
to GND for maximum thermal dissipation.
Power ground.
Switch node.
Connection point between reverse blocking MOSFET and high-side MOSFET.

Operation
The RT9451 is designed for single cell Li-Ion battery charger
in portable applications.
Base Circuits
Base circuits provide the internal power, VDD and reference
voltage and bias current.
Protection Circuits
The protection circuits include the OVP, UVLO and OTP
circuits. The protection circuits turn off the charging when
the input power or die temperature is in abnormal level.
Switching Charger
The switching charger controls the operation during the
charging process. The controller will make sure the battery
is well charged in a suitable current, voltage, and die
temperature.
Logic Circuits
The STAT and INT indicate the charger and interrupt
condition. During the charging process, the STAT pin is

pulled low and pulled high when the charger is under
abnormal condition or charge done. The INT pin indicates
the fault condition. When any fault occurs, the INT is pulled
low.
LDO
The RT9451 provides a 50mA LDO to support the peripheral
circuits. The output voltage is regulated to 4.9V and the
maximum output current is 120mA.
OSC
The oscillator runs at fixed 375kHz frequency for the PWM
control of switching charger.
