3226 is a 2-cell series supercapacitor charger with
a backup PowerPath controller. It includes a charge pump
supercapacitor charger with programmable output voltage,
a low dropout regulator, and a power-fail comparator for
switching between normal and backup modes.
The constant input current supercapacitor charger is
designed to charge two supercapacitors in series to a
resistor-programmable output voltage of 2.5V to 5.3V.
The charger input current limit is programmable by an
external resistor at up to 315mA.
The internal backup LDO is powered from the superca-
pacitors and provides up to 2A peak output current with
an adjustable output voltage. When the input supply falls
below the power-fail threshold, the LTC3226 automatically
enters a backup state in which the supercapacitors power
the output through the LDO. The input supply power-fail
voltage level is programmed by an external resistor divider.
Low input noise, low quiescent current and a compact
footprint make the LTC3226 ideally suited for small, battery-
powered applications. Internal current limit and thermal
shutdown circuitry allow the device to survive a continu-
ous short-circuit from the PROG or CPO pins to ground.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
Failure to solder the exposed backside of the package to the PC
board ground plane will result in a thermal resistance much greater than
58.7°C/W.

The LTC3226E is guaranteed to meet specifications from 0°C to 85°C
junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C to 125°C operating
junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and
correlation with statistical process controls. The LTC3226I is guaranteed
over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range. The
junction temperature, T
