This document describes the design of an ultra-compact and efficient Li-ion battery charger circuit intended for use in biomedical implants. The circuit uses an operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) to naturally transition between constant current and constant voltage charging modes with over 75% efficiency while occupying a small layout area of 0.15 mm2. It does not require sense resistors to detect end-of-charge, improving accuracy and reducing variability compared to previous designs. Experimental results show the circuit can accurately charge batteries to 99.8% efficiency with continuous transitions between charging modes.
