4. charging process and key parameter setting
4.1 charging process
The CXLB73284 adopts the three-stage intelligent charging mechanism of "pre-charging-constant current charging-constant voltage charging:
1. Pre-charge mode: When the battery voltage is lower than the VLOWV threshold, pre-charge with a constant current of 10% to restore the deep discharge battery.
2. Constant current charging: After the battery voltage rises, it enters the constant current stage to set the current for fast charging.
3. Constant voltage charging: When the battery voltage is close to the set value, it turns to the constant voltage mode, and the current gradually decreases until it is fully charged.

4.3 charging current setting
The charging current is set by the sense resistor RSNS between CS and BAT, and the formula is:
The typical value of VCS-BAT_CC is 30mV. For example, when RSNS = 20 mΩ, the charging current is about 1.5A.
Detailed explanation of 5. protection mechanism
5.1 temperature protection
· thermal feedback regulation: Automatically reduce the charging current when the junction temperature is> 125°C.
· over-temperature shutdown: Stop charging when junction temperature> 155°C.
· NTC Protection: Monitor the battery temperature through an external 10kΩ NTC resistor (B = 3950K) on the TS pin, and suspend charging over the range.
5.2 Security Timer
· Precharge Timer: Up to 60 minutes, overtime will report an error.
· Current Elimination Charge Timer: Continue to run for 40 minutes after charging is terminated to improve battery saturation.
5.3 Other Protection
· Input undervoltage protection: Stop charging when VIN<4.1V.
· Battery short circuit protection: When VBAT<2.2V, enter the low current activation mode.
· Anti-irrigation protection: Prevent reverse discharge of the battery through the VSLEEP threshold.
6. PCB Design Recommendations
To ensure system stability and anti-interference ability, please note:
· The 1μF 0.1μF capacitor at the IN pin should be placed close to the chip, and the ground path is short and thick.
· The BS capacitor should be close to the BS and LX pins, and the traces should be as short as possible.
· CS and BAT pin filter capacitor should be common ground, and good connection with chip ground.
· Shielding inductance with saturation current greater than 2A is selected for power induction.
· The bottom pad should be connected to the underlying ground plane through multiple vias to enhance heat dissipation.
