Overview
Description
The ISL9241 is a digitally configurable buck-boost battery charger that can support both Narrow Voltage Direct Charging (NVDC) and Hybrid Power Buck-Boost (HPBB/Bypass) charging and switch between the modes using firmware control. Bypass mode is also supported using the firmware of the controller, which allows the adapter to provide power directly to the system. The ISL9241 provides charging functionality, system bus regulation, and protection features using only NFETs for tablet, Ultrabook, and notebook platforms. The advanced Renesas R3™ technology provides a high, light-load efficient Charging mode. The ISL9241 takes input power from a wide range of DC power sources (such as conventional AC/DC charger adapters, USB Type-C Power ports, and travel adapters) and safely charges battery packs with up to 4-series cell Li-ion batteries. The system power can be provided from the adapter, battery, or a combination of both. The reconfigurable internal registers of the charger allow the use of a smaller inductor for the HPBB mode to achieve higher efficiencies across multiple power levels. The ISL9241 can operate with only a battery, only an adapter, or both connected. For Intel IMVP compliant systems, the ISL9241 includes System Power monitor (PSYS) functionality, which provides an analog signal representing total platform power. The PSYS output connects to a wide range of IMVP core regulators to provide an IMVP compliant power domain function. The ISL9241 supports reverse buck, boost, or buck-boost operation to the adapter port (OTG mode) from 2- to 4-cell batteries. This allows configurations to support USB-C Power Delivery (PD) output for Programmable Power Supply (PPS) ports. The ISL9241 serial communication uses SMBus/I2C, which allows programming of many key parameters to deliver a customized solution.
