· Constant current charging: Quickly replenish energy for the battery with the set current;
· Constant voltage charging: When the battery voltage is close to the set value, it enters the constant voltage mode, and the current gradually decreases until it is fully charged.
2.4. Multiple system protection mechanisms
Input undervoltage/overvoltage protection: Monitor the input voltage status and stop charging when abnormal;
· NTC temperature protection: Support low temperature, medium and low temperature, high temperature three-stage protection, low temperature stop charging, medium and low temperature flow reduction, high temperature stop charging;
· IC over-temperature protection: Turn off the output when the internal temperature of the chip exceeds 135 ℃, and recover after the temperature drops to 110 ℃;
· ESD 4KV: Enhance the anti-static ability of the system and improve the durability of the product.
2.5. Intelligent LED status indication
The chip supports single-pin drive dual LED indicator lights, which clearly shows the states of charging, full charge, abnormal temperature, battery not connected, etc., and improves user experience and system maintainability.

· Capacitance: It is recommended to configure 10μF and 1μF ceramic capacitors for input and output respectively, and the withstand voltage should be reasonably selected according to the system voltage;
· Set resistance: According to the target charging current and voltage, refer to the data sheet to select the appropriate RISET and RVSET resistance values.
4.2. PCB Layout Recommendations
· Power Path: VIN-inductor-LX-BAT loop should be short and thick to reduce parasitic parameters and conduction losses;
· signal isolationVSET, ISET, NTC and other analog pins should be far away from the switch node to avoid noise interference;
· Heat dissipation design: The bottom of the chip should be connected to the bottom copper skin through heat dissipation vias to improve the overall heat dissipation performance.
4.3. NTC protection circuit design
· If the NTC function is not required, connect the NTC pin to the ground with a 10kΩ resistor;
· If the NTC function is used, an NTC resistor that meets the temperature curve requirements should be selected and installed close to the battery to accurately reflect the battery temperature.
