APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
A 1.5A system limit, for example, would use a 33mΩ
sense resistor. Figure 4 gives an example of the system
current for the situation where the input current happens
to be 1A, and then gets reduced as the additional system
load increases beyond 0.5A. The LTM8061 integrates
the CLP signal internally, so average current limiting is
performed in most cases without the need for external
filter elements.
RNG/SS: Dynamic Charge Current Adjust
The LTM8061 gives the user the capability to reduce the
maximum charge current dynamically through the RNG/SS
pin. The maximum charge current of the LTM8061 is 2A
and the control voltage range on the RNG/SS pin is 1V, so
the maximum charge current can be expressed as:
where I
between 0V to 1V. Voltages higher than 1V have no effect
on the maximum charge current.
The LTM8061 sources 50μA from the RNG/SS pin, such
that a current control voltage can be set by simply connect-
ing an appropriately valued resistor to ground, following
the equation:

For example, to reduce the maximum charge current to
50% of the original value, set RNG/SS to 0.5V. The neces-
sary resistor value is:
This feature could be used, for example, to switch in a
reduced charge current level. Applying an active voltage
can also be used to control the maximum charge current
but only if the voltage source can sink current. Figures 5
and 6 give two examples of circuits that control the charg-
ing current by sinking current. Active circuits that source
current cannot be used to drive the RNG/SS pin. Care
must be taken not to exceed the 2.5V absolute maximum
voltage on the pin.
