Evaluation Board for the AAT3681A
500 mA USB Port or AC Adapter Li-Ion/Polymer Battery Charger
Introduction
The AAT3681A evaluation board demonstrates single-cell lithium-ion/polymer battery charging from either a USB or
ADP port. The AAT3681A precisely regulates battery charge voltage and current for 4.2V (4.375V option) lithium-ion/
polymer battery cells. This device operates at an input voltage range from 4V to 7.5V. The charging current can be
set up to 500mA by an external resistor.
This document describes the evaluation board and the value for the set resistor. In addition, a schematic of the complete evaluation board's circuit (Figure 1) and the board layout (Figures 2 and 3) are provided. For additional information, please refer to the AAT3681A product datasheet.

Programming Charge Current
The charging current level is programmed with a resistor placed between the ISET pin and ground. The accuracy of the
constant charge current and preconditioning trickle charge current is dominated by the resistor tolerance. A 1% tolerance resistor is recommended.
The constant charge current can be programmed from 15mA to 500mA. Table 1 provides resistor values for commonly used constant charge current levels. Figure 4 shows the relationship between ICC and RSET.

LED Status Output
The AAT3681A status pin function provides a visual indication of the status of a battery under charge. The status LED
is turned on by an internal MOSFET switch which connects the status pin to ground when the AAT3681A is in the preconditioning trickle charge, constant current charge, or constant voltage charge modes. The LED status indicator is
turned off when there is no battery charging or when the charge cycle is complete.
A series resistor (R1) is placed with the status indicator LED (D1) to limit the forward current through the LED. The
nominal value of R1 is 1kΩ; this value may be adjusted by the following formula:
ILED =
VCC - VF
R1
Use of the LED status indicator is optional. To disable this function, remove jumper JP1 which connects the LED to the
input supply.
Enable
The AAT3681A enable pin should be pulled to a logic high level to turn on the device.
