OPERATING
1. Overcharge Detection
OUT is turned to “H” (for CMOS output active “H”) when the voltage of one of the batteries exceeds the
overcharge detection voltage (VCU) during charging under normal conditions beyond the overcharge detection delay
time (tCU). This state is called “overcharge.” Attaching FET to the OUT pin provides charge control and a second
protection. At that time, the overcharge state is maintained until the voltage of all batteries decreases from the
overcharge detection voltage (VCU) by the equivalent to the overcharge hysteresis voltage (VCD).
2. Delay Circuit
The overcharge detection delay time (tCU) change with an external capacitor (CCD). The delay times are calculated
by the following equations:
Overcharge detection delay time tCU[s] = (15±5 )CCD [μF]

PRECAUTIONS
1.
DO NOT connect any of overcharged batteries. Even if only one overcharged battery is connected to this IC,
the IC detects overcharge, then charge current flows to the delay capacitor through the parasitic diode between
pins where the battery is not connected yet. This may lead to a malfunction. Please perform sufficient
evaluation in the case of use. Depending on an application circuit, even when the fault charge battery is not
contained, the connection turn of a battery may be restricted in order to prevent the output of OUT detection
pulse at the time of battery connection.
Any position from V1 to V4 can be used when applying this IC for a one to three-cell battery. However, be sure
to short circuit between pins not in use ( VC1-VC2, VC2-VC3, VC3-VC4, or VC4-VSS).
The application conditions for the input voltage, output voltage, and load current should not exceed the package
power dissipation.
Do not apply an electrostatic discharge to this IC that exceeds the performance ratings of the built-in
electrostatic protection circuit.
