4. working principle: multi-stage charging and intelligent protection mechanism
CXLB73291 uses a multi-stage charging strategy to ensure battery health and system safety:
4.1. Constant current charging stage
When the battery voltage is lower than 8.4V, the chip quickly charges the battery with a constant current. The inductor current is set by the external detection resistor RCS, and the upper and lower limits are:
4.2. Quasi-constant voltage charging phase
When the battery voltage reaches 8.4V for the first time, the system turns to the quasi-constant voltage mode, and the charging current drops significantly to avoid overcharging and compensate for the internal resistance drop.
4.3. Charge cut-off and recharge
Charging ends when the battery voltage reaches 8.4V again; automatically restarts the charging cycle when the voltage falls back to 8.0995V.
4.4. Abnormal state protection
Battery low voltage/short circuit protection: Realize step-down small current charging through external P-MOSFET.
· over-temperature protection: Turn off the power tube when the junction temperature exceeds 145 ℃, cool down to 127 ℃ and then recover.
· Detection resistance short circuit protection: If the short circuit lasts for more than 70μ seconds, it is locked and turned off, and it needs to be powered on again or CE reset.
5. Design Guide: Key Parameters and Selection Recommendations
5.1. Charging current setting
by RCSThe resistor sets the average inductor current, which in turn controls the charging current:
In which IL=0.105/RCS, & eta; Take 80% ~ 90%.
5.2. Inductance and frequency calculation
The recommended inductance value is 3.3-15 μH, and the saturation current needs to be higher than the peak current of the system. the formula for the calculation of the switching frequency:
A frequency range of 300-600kHz is recommended to balance efficiency with size.
5.3. Capacitor Selection
· Input capacitor C1: 4.7-47 μF low ESR ceramic capacitor to suppress input ripple.
· Output Capacitor Co: According to the ripple requirements, the X7R/X5R ceramic capacitor with low ESR is recommended.
5.4. Diode and MOSFET Selection
· D1/D2Low-dropout Schottky diodes (e. g. SS24/SS34) are preferred.
· External P-MOS: Only use when battery low-voltage protection is required. Models such as A04435 and A04407A are recommended.
6. PCB Layout and Thermal Recommendations
Good layout is the key to system stability:
· Power and ground: Using wide and short traces, PGND and GND are connected to a large area of copper after being grounded at points.
· critical loop: LX, inductor and diode circuits should be as compact as possible to reduce EMI and switching losses.
· Heat dissipation design: The bottom of the chip is in full contact with the PCB copper skin, and is connected to the bottom ground through vias to enhance heat dissipation.
7. Typical Problems and Solutions
· The charging current is not up to standard: Check the RCS resistance and input voltage, and confirm that the CE pin is high.
· STAT indicator lamp is abnormal: Check whether the battery voltage is abnormal (lower than 2V or higher than 8.65V), or the protection circuit is triggered.
· Chip overheating: Optimize heat dissipation design, reduce charging current or enhance PCB thermal conductivity.
· Adapted solar input unstable: Use the chip's adaptive loop to automatically adjust the input current to adapt to the power supply capability.
