DEMO MANUAL DC1614A
compatible with this charger. The optional DC1223A-B
SMBus-to-RS232 Serial port adapter and associated
software can be used to monitor a smart battery for dem-
onstration purposes only. Contact your Linear Technology
representative to order a DC1223A-B.
DC1614 features an optional circuit for sealed lead acid
(SLA) batteries for constant-voltage charging with tem-
perature compensation and fast/float voltage toggling.
DC1614 also features layout for extra components and
external gate drivers for improved efficiency at higher
charge currents.
This demo board is capable of supporting the LTC4012 and
LTC4012-3 with a simple IC swap-out. See the Schematic
Diagram.
Design files for this circuit board are available at
http://www.linear.com/demo
DESCRIPTION
LTC4012
High Current High Efficiency
Multi-Chemistry Battery Charger
with PowerPath Control
Demonstration circuit 1614 features the LTC4012CUF, a
multi-chemistry single battery charger controller with
PowerPath™ control. The input supply voltage is 13.5V to
20V and is initially configured for a current limit of 10A.
The charger float voltage is programmed by jumpers to
support 1- to 4- series cells of both Li-Ion/Polymer and
Li-iron phosphate (LiFePO4) at 4.2V/cell and 3.6V/cell,
for a total of eight settings. The demo board is initially
configuredforconstant-voltagechargingofa12.6VLi-Ion/
Polymer battery and constant-current charging at 8A,
though current derating may be necessary due to certain
operating conditions.
Charging can be enabled/disabled by properly setting
the shutdown jumper. LED indicators for CHG, ICL, ACP,
and C/10 display the current state of the charger system.
Although this charger is not a smart battery charger, a
popular smart battery connector is provided that can be
used for further data-logging with the optional DC1223A-B
demo board and software. Note that a smart battery is not
required to use this board; however, smart batteries are

DEMO MANUAL DC1614A
QUICK START PROCEDURE
Demonstration circuit 1614 is easy to set up to evaluate
the performance of LTC4012. Refer to Figure 1 for proper
measurement equipment setup and follow the procedure
below.
1. With all power off, connect an input power supply
capable of more than 10A, system load, battery, and
meters as shown in Figure 1. Preset the load to 0A and
VIN to 0V, 0A current limit. The input supply voltage
must be greater than the full voltage value of the battery
to allow a full charge to take place.
2. Connect the jumpers as shown below for normal LED-
indicated operation:
JP2 JP3 JP4 JP5
Shutdown VCC Select Internal VCC LED PWR
THM INT ON ON
3. Connect the system load to VOUT and GND terminals.
4. Connect the jumper JP1 for the specific battery to be
tested.
5. Turn the input power supply on, setting the current limit
up to 10A. Adjust the voltage to the desired value, up
to 20V.
6. Plug in the battery. An industry-standard 5-pin AMP
smart battery connector is provided for convenience.
The board will automatically charge a battery upon
insertion and detection of a thermistor. Optionally
set jumper JP2 to ON to charge a battery without a
thermistor.
7. Turn the load on and adjust as necessary. At 10A input,
the input current will limit and the ICL LED will turn
on. Note that above a certain load setting, depending
on your VIN and battery voltage, the charger will start
to decrease charge current until the system load is
consuming all of the current from the input. For 15V
input and 12.6VBAT setting this will occur at about 3.3A.
8. Optionally evaluate the SLA circuit, removing the
jumper on JP1, as well as R14. The voltage feedback
network can now be customized to match the battery
manufacturer’s specifications. The SLA circuit can be
found in the bottom left-hand corner on the top side
of the board.
9. Optionally use the provided DC1223A-B demonstra-
tion software to configure and communicate with the
DC1614A, connecting DC1223A-B as in Figure 1.
10.For improved efficiency at high charge currents, install
additional MOSFETs in Q8 and Q10 positions and/or
gate driver circuit transistors and supply capacitors
in Q7, Q9, C21, and C25. These components may be
installed on the bottom side of the board.
