LTC4099EPDC#PBF

Battery Management Overview

The LTC4099EPDC#PBF is a demonstration circuit board, designated as DC1396A, designed to showcase the functionality of the LTC4099 battery management controller. This evaluation platform integrates a high-efficiency USB power and lithium-ion battery manager with a high-voltage regulator for battery tracking control. The system operates within an input voltage range of 4.35 V to 5.5 V. It supports output voltages between 3.5 V and 4.7 V, or specifically 4.2 V, with corresponding output currents ranging from 0.5 A to 1.2 A at 4.2 V, and up to 1.5 A at 3.5 V to 4.7 V. The hardware utilizes a 20-pin UTQFN surface mount package measuring 3 mm by 4 mm with a 0.55 mm height.

Battery Management Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order corresponds to the DC1396A demonstration kit rather than the standalone integrated circuit. Confirm compatibility with standard I2C interfaces and ensure the evaluation setup meets the required input voltage specifications of 4.35 V to 5.5 V. Check for any necessary peripheral components not included in the base kit for your specific application testing.

Battery Management Selection Notes

Select this demonstration board when validating the operational characteristics of the LTC4099 controller before custom PCB design. It serves as a reference for thermal management and layout guidelines, particularly regarding the 20-pin UTQFN package. Engineers should utilize this platform to assess efficiency and stability under various load conditions defined by the manufacturer's test parameters.

Battery Management Part Context

This item belongs to the Analog Devices demonstration circuit family, specifically engineered to support the LTC4099 series. While the LTC4099 is a standalone battery conditioner, the EPDC suffix denotes the packaged evaluation board version. These kits are essential tools for hardware engineers to accelerate development cycles by providing pre-validated schematics and layouts for complex power management tasks.

Battery Management Replacement Considerations

No direct substitute demonstration boards are publicly confirmed for this specific part number. For functional equivalents, consider other Analog Devices USB battery management evaluation kits that match similar input voltage ranges and I2C control requirements.
