The ZSPM4551 is configurable for termination voltage, charge current and additional variables to allow optimum charging conditions for a wide range of Li-ion batteries. Its 1MHz switching frequency enables the use of small filter components, resulting in smaller board space and reduced system costs.
The ZSPM4551 has an integrated I2Câ„¢ (trademark of NXP) interface, which enables the user to set application-specific temperature-compensated termination voltages and control charging currents. It can regulate up to 1.5A continuous drive current.
The ZSPM4551 features integrated power switches, internal compensation and fault protection. It offers Li-ion-specific protection for over-current, over-temperature, battery (VBAT) over-voltage and charging timeout. It includes supervisory reporting through the NFLT (inverted fault) open-drain output for interfacing with other components in the system.
The ZSPM4551 is in a league of its own when it comes to its high level of integration, up to 92% efficiency with typical loads and ultra-low power consumption. When the regulator is disabled, the device typically draws 10µA quiescent current.
"ZMDI is committed to developing advanced high-efficiency solutions to meet our customers' variety of needs. Our smart charger, the ZSPM4551, supports our customers' direction into portable applications, and this product is another example of ZMDI's commitment to providing the very best solutions for our energy-conscious customers," stated Edward Lam, Vice President of Product Marketing and Business Development at ZMDI.
