Using the High Input Voltage Charger for
Single Cell Li-Ion Batteries
(KIT34676EPEVBE)
1Purpose
This User Guide helps the Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery
charger designer understand the MC34676B and its
evaluation board. It illustrates the design procedure when
using the MC34676B to design a Li-Ion battery charger, and
the way to get the best performance from the MC34676B.
2Scope
The 34676 is a dual 28V input voltage and fully-integrated
single cell Li-Ion battery charger, targeting smart handheld
applications. One of the inputs is optimized for charging with
a USB port, and the second is optimized for an AC/DC
adapter power source. The charger has two 28V power
devices, to eliminate the need of any external power source
selection and input over-voltage protection circuitry. Each of
the power devices independently controls the charge
current from the input, and performs as an independent
charger. Only one of the two chargers operate at a time.
The AC charger current and the USB charger current are
programmable, up to 1.2A and 400mA, with an external
resistor respectively. The voltage across the two external
resistors is also used to monitor the actual charge current
through each charger respectively. The EOC current of both
chargers is the same, and programmable by an external
resistor. The 4.85V regulator can be used to power a
sub-system directly.
The 34676 has a 5% constant current accuracy for the AC

5.1 Input capacitors C1 and C3
The input capacitor is used to minimize the input voltage transient that may cause instability. A ceramic capacitor of
1.0μF or above is required for most applications. X5R and X7R dielectrics have better temperature stability. The
evaluation board uses 1.0μF X5R ceramic capacitors. Considering the maximum input voltage rating of the MC34676B
is 28V, the input capacitor must have 16V DC rated voltage.
5.2 Output capacitors C4 and C5
The charger output capacitor is used for stable operation. An X5R ceramic capacitor minimum of a 1.0μF is required for
the charger output. Depending on the load transient current, a larger capacitance may be required. Because the highest
output voltage of the MC34676B is 4.2V, a 6.3V DC rated voltage is high enough for the output capacitor.
The regulator output capacitor is used for stable operation, too. An X5R ceramic capacitor minimum of a 1.0μF is
required for the regulator output. A 6.3V DC rated voltage is high enough for the regulator output capacitor because the
highest output voltage of the output regulator is 5V.
5.3 AC CC-mode charge current setting resistors R1, R2, and R3
The resistor between the ISET pin and GND sets the AC CC-mode charge current by the following equation:

5.5 End-of-charge current setting resistors R10 and R11
The end-of-charge (EOC) current for both the AC charger and the USB charger can be set by the resistors R10 and R11.
On the evaluation board, two resistors with one pin header jumper are used for the user to conveniently configure
different EOC current values.
