RT9527L
Single Cell Li-Ion Battery Charger with Adjustable Charging
Current for Portable Applications
General Description
The RT9527L is a low cost single-cell Li-ion charger for
low current charge applications.
The RT9527L can be powered up by an AC adapter or
USB (Universal Serial Bus) port inputs. The RT9527L enters
sleep mode when VIN power is removed. The RT9527L
optimizes the charging task by using a control algorithm,
which includes pre-charge mode, fast-charge mode and
constant voltage mode. The charging task is kept in
constant voltage mode to hold the battery in a full charge
condition. The charge current is adjustable via an external
resistor. The internal thermal feedback circuitry regulates
the die temperature to optimize the charge rate for all
ambient temperatures. The RT9527L features 28V
maximum rating voltages for VIN. Other features include
under-voltage protection and over-voltage protection for the
AC adapter supply.
The RT9527L is available in the small thermally enhanced
WDFN-8L 2x2 package.

Pin Function
Supply voltage input. VIN can withstand up to 28V input.
Power good indicator output. Active-low, open-drain output.
Charger status output. Active-low, open-drain output.
Ground. The exposed pad must be soldered to a large PCB and connected to
GND for maximum power dissipation.
Charge current setting.
Safe-charge timer setting.
Temperature sense input. The TS pin connects to a battery’s thermistor to
determine whether the battery is too hot or too cold for charging operation. If
the battery’s temperature is out of range, charging is paused until it re-enters
the valid range.

RT9527L
Operation
The RT9527L is a Li-ion charger that can support the input
voltage range from 4.4V to 6V. It provides a wide fast-
charge current setting ranging from 10mA up to 600mA.
Change Current Setting
The charging current is adjustable via an external resistor
between the ISET and GND pins.
UVLO
If the input voltage (VIN ) is lower than the threshold voltage
V
UVLO
− ΔV
UVLO
, the charger will stop charging until VIN
is higher than V
UVLO
.
OVP
If the input voltage (VIN) is higher than the threshold voltage
V
OVP
, the internal OVP signal will go high and the charger
will stop charging until VIN is below V
OVP
− ΔV
OVP
.
Switch Well
The switch well will choose the highest voltage between
VIN and BAT to prevent the power switch from damage.
Sleep Mode
When the voltage difference between VIN and BAT is under
V
OS_L
, the charger will enter sleep mode to save the system
power consumption.
CC/CV/TR Multi Loop Controller
There are constant current loop, constant voltage loop and
thermal regulation loop to control the charging current.
Too Hot or Too Cold
The temperature sense input TS pin can be connected to
a thermistor to determine whether the battery is too hot
or too cold for charging operation. If the battery's
temperature is out of range, charging is paused until it re-
enters the valid range.
PGOOD
The PGOOD pin is an open-drain output used to indicate
the input voltage status. PGOOD will assert low when
VIN is in the proper working range.
CHG
The CHG pin is an open-drain output. CHG will assert low
when the charger starts to charge the battery and become
high impedance when the termination current is reached.
TIMER
The charger contains a safety timer. When the charging
time is longer than t
PCHG
in the pre-charge mode or t
FCHG
in the fast-charge mode, time fault happens. Then, the
charger will be turned off and the CHG pin will become
high impedance.
