OPERATION
which termination scheme is used. When the timer-based
scheme is used, the LTM8062 also supports bad battery
detection, which triggers a system fault if a battery stays
in precondition mode for more than one-eighth of the total
programmed charge cycle time.
Once charging terminates and the LTM8062 is not actively
charging, the charger automatically enters a low current
standby mode in which supply bias currents are reduced
to 85μA. If the battery voltage drops 2.5% from the full
charge float voltage, the LTM8062 engages an automatic
charge cycle restart. The IC also automatically restarts a
new charge cycle after a bad-battery fault once the failed

The LTM8062 contains a battery temperature monitoring
circuit. This feature, using a thermistor, monitors battery
temperature and will not allow charging to begin, or will
suspend charging, and signal a fault condition if the bat-
tery temperature is outside a safe charging range. The
LTM8062 contains two digital open-collector outputs,
CHRG and FAULT, which provide charger status and signal
fault conditions. These binary coded pins signal battery
charging, standby or shutdown modes, battery temperature
faults and bad battery faults. For reference, C/10 and TMR
based charging cycles are shown in Figures 1 and 2.
