FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
U
The LTC
®
1559 is a backup battery controller that provides
all the functions necessary to implement a backup 3.3V or
5V power supply using a single NiCd cell. It includes a 1.2V
to 3.07V/4.63V boost converter, an intelligent 2-stage
battery charger, automatic backup switching and a micro-
processor reset generator. The boost converter uses a
synchronous switching architecture to achieve a typical
efficiency of 70%, ensuring maximum backup lifetime
from a small NiCd cell.
The on-chip NiCd charger uses an internal gas gauge to
minimize fast recharge time and prevent overcharging of
the backup cell, thereby improving system efficiency and
extending the life of the backup cell. The LTC1559 also
provides a user programmable trickle charge current to
compensate for self-discharge losses in the backup cell.
The LTC1559’s automatic backup switching scheme
requires minimum intervention from the host system and
provides feedback to the host to minimize system loading
in the backup state. Its internal V
CC
fault detector and reset
generator eliminate the need for a separate microproces-
sor supervisory chip in most applications.
The LTC1559 is available in an SO-8, 16-pin GN or SO
package.

The denotes specifications which apply over the full operating
temperature range.
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life of
a device may be impaired.
Note 2: Quiescent current is measured during push-button reset.

threshold voltages have a specification tolerance, they are guaranteed by
design and tested in production never to overlap.
Note 5: Low cell voltage reset is only triggered when 0.25V < V

for at least 20µs while in backup mode.
Note 6: Fast recharge factor is defined as the ratio of charge replenished to
the NiCd battery during fast recharge to the charge withdrawn from the
NiCd battery during backup.
Note 7: The LTC1559 switches automatically between the low and high
operating current levels. See Applications Information for more details.
