4. working principle: four-stage charging and intelligent management
The CXLB73294 uses a four-stage charging strategy to accurately match the battery status:
4.1. Short circuit charging (SC)
When VBAT<2V, the chip wakes up the battery with 6% set current to avoid impact.
4.2. Current elimination charging (TC)
When the battery voltage rises to 2V-5.6V, the battery activity is restored at 12% of the set current.
4.3. Constant current charging (CC)
After the voltage exceeds 5.6V, the set current is quickly charged to quickly increase the power.
4.4. Constant voltage charging (CV)
Close to the set cut-off voltage to the constant voltage mode, the current gradually decreased until the cut-off.
4.5. Automatic cut-off and recharge
Charging ends when the current drops to 1/10 of the set value; it automatically restarts when the voltage drops to the recharge threshold.
5. Design Guide: Key Parameter Setting and Peripheral Selection
5.1. Charging current setting
Through the ICHG pin resistance setting, the formula is:
where constant current phase VICHG= 1V, the corresponding relationship between RICHG and current is as follows
| RICHG | constant current charging current | current elimination current | Short-circuit current |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2kΩ | 500mA | 60mA | 30mA |
| 1kΩ | 1000mA | 120mA | 60mA |
| 0.5kΩ | 2000mA | 240mA | 120mA |
External RCV resistor setting via CV pin:
| RCV | cut-off voltage |
|---|---|
| ≤ 2.5kΩ | 8.4V |
| 7.5kΩ | 8.6V |
| 25kΩ | 8.7V |
| ≥75kΩ | 8.8V |
Set the temperature window using external divider resistors and NTC thermistors:
· Recommended NTC:100K,B value 4250K
· Recommended configuration: R1 = 56kΩ,R2=150kΩ(0 ℃-60 ℃ range)
· Calculation formula:

5.4. Peripheral component selection
· Inductance L: 1μH-2.2μH, saturation current> 5A,DCR<20mΩ
· Input capacitance CIN: 10μF, withstand voltage ≥ 16V, low ESR ceramic capacitor
· Output Capacitor CBAT: 20μF, withstand voltage ≥ 16V, near BAT pin
· bootstrap capacitor CBST: 100nF, withstand voltage ≥ 10V
6. PCB Layout and Thermal Recommendations
· Power path: The SVIN-LX-BD-BAT path is as short and wide as possible to reduce loss and noise.
· Capacitor Layout: CBD, CBAT and CBST should be as close as possible to the corresponding pins of the chip.
· Grounding strategy: PGND and SGND are grounded separately, and the bottom heat dissipation pad is connected to the ground plane through multiple vias.
• Thermal design: The bottom of the ESSOP10 package needs to be covered with copper in a large area and through holes to improve heat dissipation performance.
7. Typical Problems and Solutions
· The charging current is not up to standardCheck RICHG resistance, input voltage and ILIM configuration.
· STAT light flashes abnormally: Check whether NTC voltage exceeds the range of 25%-65%, or check whether protection is triggered.
· Chip overheating: Optimize PCB heat dissipation design, reduce charging current or enhance heat conduction.
· Charging does not cut off: Confirm whether the BAT voltage reaches the set value and check the cut-off current setting.
