Detailed explanation of 2. core functions
2.1. Intelligent charging management and I2C control
The CXLB73306 supports complete TC/CC/CV three-stage charging, and the key parameters can be adjusted in real time through I2C:
· Current elimination charging: Activate with low current when battery voltage <67% VCV.
· Constant current charging: The current can be set together with I2C through RS resistor, formula:
Default VICC = 50mV, supporting 1.25mV step adjustment.
· Constant voltage chargingFloat voltage is set by external FB divider resistor and I2C:

2.2. Input adaptive and fast charge protocol.
· input adaptive: Set the input voltage drop point through the VSEN pin to prevent the adapter from overloading.
· Automatic fast charging application: The chip automatically applies for 9V or 12V input through DP/DM, and returns to 5V if it fails, which is compatible with various fast charging protocols.
2.3. Temperature protection compatible with JEITA
NTC Configuration: Support dual temperature windows (low temperature 70% REGN, high temperature 47.5% REGN), JEITA1/JEITA2 mode can be selected through I2C:
· JEITA1: The charging current is reduced to 50% at low temperature and the floating voltage is reduced at high temperature.
· JEITA2: In addition to current and voltage regulation, the high temperature section further limits the current to 60% ICC.
2.4. Status indication and interrupt output
2.4.1. STAT Pin:
· Charging: low level (LED on)
· Full: high resistance (LED off)
· Abnormal: 1.5Hz flicker
2.4.2. INT PinOpen-drain output, support system interrupt response, real-time reporting of faults and state changes.
3. I2C Register Configuration Overview
CXLB73306 provide rich I2C register, address is 0x4C, support single byte and continuous read and write:
| Register | Function |
|---|---|
| REG[0]-[2] | System status reading (including interrupt flag) |
| REG[8] | Setting of charging termination current and current elimination current |
| REG[9] | Battery Cell Number, CV Voltage Setting |
| REG[A] | NTC mode, REGN voltage, LED behavior |
| REG[B] | Constant current, current elimination conversion point |
| REG[C] | Charging enable, timeout setting, frequency jitter control |
| REG[D] | Input voltage, VSEN adaptation point |
For example:
· Set 4 batteries, 4.2V/section: REG[9] = 0b00011011
· Enable NTC[1:0] for JEITA2:REG[A] = 0b10
4. typical application scenarios
CXLB73306 is widely used in the following areas:
· Smart Bluetooth Speaker: Support fast charging and multiple batteries to enhance user experience.
· Power Tools & Toys: 3A high current fast recharging, suitable for high power scenarios.
· Electronic Cigarettes and Portable Medical DevicesPrecise voltage and temperature control to ensure safety.
· Interphone and Emergency Equipment: Wide input voltage adaptability, suitable for outdoor changeable environment.
5. packaging and design points
5.1. Encapsulation form: QFN4x4-32L, with good heat dissipation and welding process.


5.2. Thermal resistance parameters: & theta;JA = 52 ℃/W, it is recommended to cooperate with the heat dissipation via design.
5.3. Layout recommendations:
· The large current paths (VIN, SW, BAT) are as short and wide as possible.
· RS resistors should be placed in close proximity to the CSP/CSN to reduce noise interference.
· The FB sampling line should be directly connected to the positive electrode of the battery to reduce the line loss error.
