Monitor IC
FN8110.1
Features
• Software Selectable Protection Levels and Variable
Protect Detection/Release Times
The X3100 is a protection and monitor IC for use in battery
packs consisting of 4 series Lithium-Ion battery cells. The
X3101 is designed to work in 3-cell applications. Both devices
provide internal over-charge, over-discharge, and overcurrent protection circuitry, internal EEPROM memory, an
internal voltage regulator, and internal drive circuitry for
external FET devices that control cell charge, discharge, and
cell voltage balancing.
• Integrated FET Drive Circuitry
• Cell Voltage and Current Monitoring
• 0.5% Accurate Voltage Regulator
• Integrated 4k-bit EEPROM
• Flexible Power Management with 1µA Sleep Mode
• Cell Balancing Control
Over-charge, over-discharge, and over-current thresholds
reside in an internal EEPROM memory register and are
selected independently via software using a 3MHz SPI serial
interface. Detection and time-out delays can also be individually
varied using external capacitors.
• Pb-Free Available (RoHS Compliant)
Benefit
• Optimize protection for chosen cells to allow maximum
use of pack capacity
Using an internal analog multiplexer, the X3100 or X3101
allow battery parameters such as cell voltage and current
(using a sense resistor) to be monitored externally by a
separate microcontroller with A/D converter. Software on this
microcontroller implements gas gauge and cell balancing
functionality in software.
• Reduce component count and cost
• Simplify implementation of gas gauge
• Accurate voltage and current measurements
• Record battery history to optimize gas gauge, track pack
failures and monitor system use
The X3100 and X3101 contain a current sense amplifier.
Selectable gains of 10, 25, 80 and 160 allow an external
10-bit A/D converter to achieve better resolution than a more
expensive 14-bit converter.
• Reduce power to extend battery life
• Increase battery capacity and improve cycle life battery life
An internal 4k-bit EEPROM memory featuring IDLock™
allows the designer to partition and “lock in” written battery
cell/pack data.
The X3100 and X3101 are each housed in a 28 Ld TSSOP
package.

NUMBER PIN NAME
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
23
OVP/
LMON
Over-charge Voltage Protection output/Load Monitor output. This one pin performs two functions depending upon the
present mode of operation of the X3100 or X3101.
Over-charge Voltage Protection (OVP)
This pin controls the switching of the battery pack charge FET. This power FET is a P-channel device. As such, cell charge is
possible when OVP/LMON=VSS, and cell charge is prohibited when OVP/LMO = VCC. In this configuration the X3100 and
X3101 turn off the charge voltage when the cells reach the over-charge limit. This prevents damage to the battery cells due to
the application of charging voltage for an extended period of time (see section “Over-charge Protection” on page 14).
Load Monitor (LMON)
In Over-current Protection mode, a small test current (7.5µA typ.) is passed out of this pin to sense the load resistance. The
measured load resistance determines whether or not the X3100 or X3101 returns from an over-current protection mode (see
section “Over-Current Protection” on page 19).
24
UVP/
OCP
Over-discharge protection output/Over-current protection output. Pin UVP/OCP controls the battery cell discharge via
an external power FET. This P-channel FET allows cell discharge when UVP/OCP=Vss, and prevents cell discharge when
UVP/OCP=Vcc. The X3100 and X3101 turn the external power FET off when the X3100 or X3101 detects either:
Over-discharge Protection (UVP)
In this case, pin 24 is referred to as “Over-discharge (Under-Voltage) protection (UVP)” (see section “Over-discharge
Protection” on page 16). UVP/OCP turns off the FET to prevent damage to the battery cells by being discharged to
excessively low voltages.
Over-current protection (OCP)
In this case, pin 24 is referred to as “Over-current protection (OCP)” (see section “Over-Current Protection” on page 19).
UVP/OCP turns off the FET to prevent damage to the battery pack caused by excessive current drain (e.g. as in the case of
a surge current resulting from a stalled disk drive).
25
RGO
Voltage regulator output pin. This pin is an input that connects to the collector of an external PNP transistor. The voltage
at this pin is the regulated output voltage, but it also provides the feedback voltage for the regulator and the operating voltage
for the device.
26
RGC
Voltage regulator control pin. This pin connects to the base of an external PNP transistor and controls the transistor turn on.
27
RGP
Voltage regulator protection pin. This pin is an input that connects to the emitter of an external PNP transistor and an
external current limit resistor and provides a current limit voltage.
28
VCC
Power supply. This pin is provides the voltage for FET control, regulator operation, and wake-up
circuits.
principles of operation
The X3100 and X3101 provide two distinct levels of
functionality and battery cell protection:
First, in Normal mode, the device periodically checks each
cell for an overcharge and overdischarge state, while
continuously watching for a pack over-current condition. A
protection mode violation results from an over-charge, overdischarge, or overcurrent state. The thresholds for these
states are selected by the user through software. When one
of these conditions occur, a Discharge FET or a Charge FET
or both FETs are turned off to protect the battery pack. In an
over-discharge condition, the X3100 and X3101 devices go
into a low power sleep mode to conserve battery power.
During sleep, the voltage regulator turns off, removing power
from the microcontroller to further reduce pack current.
Second, in Monitor mode, a microcontroller with A/D converter
measures battery cell voltage and pack current via pin AO and
the X3100 or X3101 on-board MUX. The user can thus
implement protection, charge/discharge, cell balancing or gas
gauge software algorithms to suit the specific application and
characteristics of the cells used. While monitoring these
voltages, all protection circuits are on continuously.
4
In a typical application, the microcontroller is also
programmed to provide an SMBus interface along with the
Smart Battery System interface protocols. These additions
allow an X3100 or X3101 based module to adhere to the
latest industry battery pack standards.
Typical Application Circuit
The X3100 and X3101 have been designed to operate
correctly when used as connected in the Typical Application
Circuit (see Figure 1 on page 5).
The power MOSFET’s Q1 and Q2 are referred to as the
“Discharge FET” and “Charge FET,” respectively. Since
these FETs are p-channel devices, they will be ON when the
gates are at VSS, and OFF when the gates are at VCC. As
their names imply, the discharge FET is used to control cell
discharge, while the charge FET is used to control cell
charge. Diode D1 allows the battery cells to receive charge
even if the Discharge FET is OFF, while diode D2 allows the
cells to discharge even if the charge FET is OFF. D1 and D2
are integral to the Power FETs. It should be noted that the
cells can neither charge nor discharge if both the charge FET
and discharge FET are OFF.
FN8110.1
January 3, 2008
X3100, X3101
Power to the X3100 or X3101 is applied to pin VCC via
diodes D6 and D7. These diodes allow the device to be
powered by the Li-Ion battery cells in normal operating
conditions, and allow the device to be powered by an
external source (such as a charger) via pin P+ when the
battery cells are being charged. These diodes should have
sufficient current and voltage ratings to handle both cases of
battery cell charge and discharge.
The operation of the voltage regulator is described in section
“Voltage Regulator” on page 22. This regulator provides a
5VDC±0.5% output. The capacitor (C1) connected from
RGO to ground provides some noise filtering on the RGO
output. The recommended value is 0.1µF or less. The value
chosen must allow VRGO to decay to 0.1V in 170ms or less
when the X3100 or X3101 enter the sleep mode. If the decay
is slower than this, a resistor (R1) can be placed in parallel
with the capacitor.
During an initial turn-on period (TPUR + TOC), VRGO has a
stable, regulated output in the range of 5VDC ± 10% (see
Figure ). The selection of the microcontroller should take this
into consideration. At the end of this turn on period, the
X3100 and X3101 “self-tunes” the output of the voltage
regulator to 5V+/-0.5%. As such, VRGO can be used as a
reference voltage for the A/D converter in the
microcontroller. Repeated power-up operations, consistently
re-apply the same “tuned” value for VRGO.
Figure 1 shows a battery pack temperature sensor
implemented as a simple resistive voltage divider, utilizing a
thermistor (RT) and resistor (RT’). The voltage VT can be fed
to the A/D input of a microcontroller and used to measure
and monitor the temperature of the battery cells. RT’ should
be chosen with consideration of the dynamic resistance
range of RT as well as the input voltage range of the
microcontroller A/D input. An output of the microcontroller
can be used to turn on the thermistor divider to allow
periodic turn-on of the sensor. This reduces power
consumption since the resistor string is not always drawing
current.
Diode D3 is included to facilitate load monitoring in an Overcurrent protection mode (see section “Over-Current
Protection” on page 19), while preventing the flow of current
into pin OVP/LMON during normal operation. The NChannel transistor turns off this function during the sleep
mode.
Resistor RPU is connected across the gate and drain of the
charge FET (Q2). The discharge FET Q1 is turned off by the
X3100 or X3101, and hence the voltage at pin OVP/LMON
will be (at maximum) equal to the voltage of the battery
terminal, minus one forward biased diode voltage drop (VP+ VD7). Since the drain of Q2 is connected to a higher potential
(VP+) a pull-up resistor (RPU) in the order of 1MΩ should be
used to ensure that the charge FET is completely turned
OFF when OVP/LMON = VCC.
5
The capacitors on the VCELL1 to VCELL4 inputs are used in a
first order low pass filter configuration, at the battery cell
voltage monitoring inputs (VCELL1 - VCELL4) of the X3100
or X3101. This filter is used to block any unwanted
interference signals from being inadvertently injected into
the monitor inputs. These interference signals may result
from:
• Transients created at battery contacts when the battery
pack is being connected/disconnected from the charger or
the host.
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) from something/someone
touching the battery contacts.
• Unfiltered noise that exists in the host device.
• RF signals which are induced into the battery pack from
the surrounding environment.
Such interference can cause the X3100 or X3101 to operate
in an unpredictable manner, or in extreme cases, damage
the device. As a guide, the capacitor should be in the order
of 0.01µF and the resistor, should be in the order of 10kΩ.
The capacitors should be of the ceramic type. In order to
minimize interference, PCB tracks should be made as short
and as wide as possible to reduce their impedance. The
battery cells should also be placed as close to the X3100 or
X3101 monitor inputs as possible.
Resistors RCB and the associated n-channel MOSFET’s (Q6 Q9) are used for battery cell voltage balancing. The X3100
and X3101 provide internal drive circuitry which allows the
user to switch FETs Q6 - Q9 ON or OFF via the
microcontroller and SPI port (see section “Cell Voltage
Balance Control (CBC1-CBC4)” on page 12). When any of
the these FETs are switched ON, a current, limited by
resistor RCB, flows across the particular battery cell. In doing
so, the user can control the voltage across each individual
battery cell. This is important when using Li-Ion battery cells
since imbalances in cell voltages can, in time, greatly reduce
the usable capacity of the battery pack. Cell voltage
balancing may be implemented in various ways, but is
usually performed towards the end of cell charging (“Top-ofcharge method”). Values for RCB will vary according to the
specific application.
The internal 4kbit EEPROM memory can be used to store
the cell characteristics for implementing such functions as
gas gauging, battery pack history, charge/discharge cycles,
and minimum/maximum conditions. Battery pack
manufacturing data as well as serial number information can
also be stored in the EEPROM array. An SPI serial bus
provides the communication link to the EEPROM.
A current sense resistor (RSENSE) is used to measure and
monitor the current flowing into/out of the battery terminals,
and is used to protect the pack from over-current conditions
(see section “Over-Current Protection” on page 19). RSENSE
is also used to externally monitor current via a
FN8110.1
January 3, 2008
X3100, X3101
microcontroller (see section “Current Monitor Function” on
page 21).
FETs Q4 and Q5 may be required on general purpose I/Os
of the microcontroller that connect outside of the package. In
some cases, without FETs, pull-up resistors external to the
pack force a voltage on the VCC pin of the microcontroller
during a pack sleep condition. This voltage can affect the
proper tuned voltage of the X3100/X3101 regulator. These
FETs should be turned-on by the microcontroller. (See
Figure 1.)
Power-on Sequence
Initial connection of the Li-Ion cells in the battery pack will
not normally power-up the battery pack. Instead, the X3100
or X3101 enters and remains in the SLEEP mode. To exit
the SLEEP mode, after the initial power-up sequence, or
following any other SLEEP MODE, a minimum of 16V
(X3100 VSLR) or 12V (X3101 VSLR) is applied to the VCC
pin, as would be the case during a battery charge condition.
(See Figure .)
When VSLR is applied to VCC, the analog select pins (AS2 AS0) and the SPI communication pins (CS, CLK, SI, SO)
must be low, so the X3100 and X3101 power-up correctly
into the normal operating mode. This can be done by using a
power-on reset circuit.
When entering the normal operating mode, either from initial
power-up or following the SLEEP MODE, all bits in the
control register are zero. With UVPC and OVPC bits at zero,
the charge and discharge FETs are off. The microcontroller
must turn these on to activate the pack. The microcontroller
would typically check the voltage and current levels prior to
turning on the FETs via the SPI port. The software should
prevent turning on the FETs throughout an initial
measurement/calibration period. The duration of this period
is TOV + 200ms or TUV + 200ms, whichever is longer.

The X3100 is designed to operate with four (4) Li-Ion battery
cells. The X3101 is designed to operate with three (3) Li-ion
battery cells. The CELLN bit of the configuration register
(Table 9) sets the number of cells recognized. For the
X3101, the value for CELLN should always be zero.

The configuration register consists of 16 bits of
NOVRAM memory (Table 2, Table 3). This memory
features a high-speed static RAM (SRAM) overlaid bitfor-bit with non-volatile “Shadow” EEPROM. An automatic array recall operation reloads the contents of the
shadow EEPROM into the SRAM configuration register upon power-up (Figure 1).
1.
The configuration register is designed for unlimited
write operations to SRAM, and a minimum of
1,000,000 store operations to the EEPROM. Data
retention is specified to be greater than 100 years.
It should be noted that the bits of the shadow
EEPROM are for the dedicated use of the configuration register, and are NOT part of the general purpose
4kbit EEPROM array.
The WCFIG command writes to the configuration reg-
ister, see Table 30 and section “X3100/X3101 SPI Serial
Communication” on page 23.
After writing to this register using a WCFIG instruction,
data will be stored only in the SRAM of the configuration register. In order to store data in shadow
EEPROM, a WREN instruction, followed by a
EEWRITE to any address of the 4kbit EEPROM memory array must occur, see Figure 2. This sequence initiates an internal nonvolatile write cycle which permits
data to be stored in the shadow EEPROM cells. It
must be noted that even though a EEWRITE is made
to the general purpose 4kbit EEPROM array, the value
and address to which it is written, is unimportant. If this
procedure is not followed, the configuration register
will power-up to the last previously stored values following a power-down sequence.
In the case that the X3100 or X3101 is configured for use with
only three Li-Ion battery cells (i.e. CELLN = 0), then VCELL4
(pin 7) MUST be tied to Vss (pin 9) to ensure correct operation.

Charge/Discharge Control (OVPC, UVPC)
The OVPC and UVPC bits allow control of cell charge
and discharge externally, via the SPI port. These bits
control the OVP/LMON and UVP/OCP pins, which in turn
control the external power FETs.
Using P-channel power FETs ensures that the FET is
on when the pin voltage is low (Vss), and off when the
pin voltage is high (Vcc).
OVP/LMON and UVP/OCP can be controlled by using
the WCNTR Instruction to set bits OVPC and UVPC in
the Control register (See page 11).

It is possible to set/change the values of OVPC and
UVPC during a protection mode. A change in the state
of the pins OVP/LMON and UVP/OCP, however, will
not take place until the device has returned from the
protection mode.
Cell Voltage Balance Control (CBC1-CBC4)
This function can be used to adjust individual battery
cell voltage during charging. Pins CB1 - CB4 are used
to control external power switching devices. Cell voltage balancing is achieved via the SPI port.
12
CB1 - CB4 can be controlled by using the WCNTR Instruction to set bits CBC1 - CBC4 in the control register
(Table 16).
STATUS REGISTER
The status of the X3100 or X3101 can be verified by
using the RDSTAT command to read the contents of

The function of each bit in the status register is shown

Bit 0 of the status register (VRGS+OCDS) actually
indicates the status of two conditions of the X3100 or
X3101. Voltage Regulator Status (VRGS) is an internally generated signal which indicates that the output
of the Voltage Regulator (VRGO) has reached an output of 5VDC ± 0.5%. In this case, the voltage regulator
is said to be “tuned”. Before the signal VRGS goes low
(i.e. before the voltage regulator is tuned), the voltage
at the output of the regulator is nominally 5VDC ± 10%
(See section “Voltage Regulator” on page 22.) Overcurrent Detection Status (OCDS) is another internally
generated signal which indicates whether or not the
X3100 or X3101 is in over-current protection mode.
Signals VRGS and OCDS are logically OR’ed together
(VRGS + OCDS) and written to bit 0 of the status register (See Table 18, Table 17 and Figure ).

When the cell charge enable function is switched ON
(configuration bit SWCEN=0), the signals CCES and
OVDS are logically OR’ed (CCES+OVDS) and written

SWCEN=1), then bit 2 of the status register effectively
only represents information about the over-charge status (OVDS) of the X3100 or X3101 (See Table 18,
Table 17 and Figure ).
Bit 1 of the status register simply indicates whether or
not the X3100 or X3101 is in over-discharge protection mode.
Bit 2 of the status register (CCES+OVDS) indicates
the status of two conditions of the X3100 or X3101.
Cell Charge Enable Status (CCES) is an internally
generated signal which indicates the status of any cell
voltage (VCELL) with respect to the Cell Charge Enable
Voltage (VCE). Over-charge Voltage Detection Status
(OVDS) is an internally generated signal which indicates whether or not the X3100 or X3101 is in overcharge protection mode.

X3100/X3101 INTERNAL PROTECTION FUNCTIONS
The X3100 and the X3101 provide periodic monitoring
(see section “Periodic Protection Monitoring” on page
13) for over-charge and over-discharge states and
continuous monitoring for an over-current state. It has
automatic shutdown when a protection mode is
encountered, as well as automatic return after the
device is released from a protection mode. When sampling voltages through the analog port (Monitor Mode),
over-charge and over-discharge protection monitoring
is also performed on a continuous basis.
Voltage thresholds for each of these protection modes
(VOV, VUV, and VOC respectively) can be individually
selected via software and stored in an internal non-volatile register. This feature allows the user to avoid the
restrictions of mask programmed voltage thresholds, and
is especially useful during prototype/evaluation design
stages or when cells with slightly different characteristics are used in an existing design.
13
Delay times for the detection of, and release from protection modes (TOV, TUV/TUVR, and TOC/TOCR respectively)
can be individually varied by setting the values of
external capacitors connected to pins OVT, UVT, OCT.
Periodic Protection Monitoring
In normal operation, the analog select pins are set
such that AS2 = L, AS1 = L, AS0 = L. In this mode the
X3100 and X3101 conserve power by sampling the
cells for over or over-discharge conditions.
In this state over-charge and over-discharge protection circuitry are usually off, but are periodically
switched on by the internal Protection Sample Rate
Timer (PSRT). The over-charge and over-discharge
protection circuitry is on for approximately 2ms in each
125ms period. Over-current monitoring is continuous.
In monitor mode (see page 21) over-charge and overdischarge monitoring is also continuous.

X3100, X3101
Over-charge Protection
The X3100 and X3101 monitor the voltage on each
battery cell (VCELL). If for any cell, VCELL > VOV for a
time exceeding TOV, then the Charge FET will be
switched OFF (OVP/LMON = VCC). The device has
now entered Over-charge protection mode (Figure 3).
The status of the discharge FET (via pin UVP) will
remain unaffected.
While in over-charge protection mode, it is possible to
change the state of the OVPC bit in the control register
such that OVP/LMON = Vss (Charge FET = ON).
Although the OVPC bit in the control register can be
changed, the change will not be seen at pin OVP until
the X3100 or X3101 returns from over-charge protection mode.
The over-charge detection delay TOV, is varied using a
capacitor (COV) connected between pin OVT and
GND. A typical delay time is shown in Table 10. The
delay TOV that results from a particular capacitance
COV, can be approximated by the following linear
equation:
TOV (s) ≈ 10 x COV (µF).
Table 19. Typical over-charge detection time
Symbol
COV
Delay
TOV
0.1µF
1.0s (Typ)
The device further continues to monitor the battery cell
voltages, and is released from over-charge protection
mode when VCELL< VOVR, for all cells. When the
X3100 or X3101 is released from over-charge protection mode, the charge FET is automatically switched
ON (OVP/LMON = VSS). When the device returns from
over-charge protection mode, the status of the discharge FET (pin UVP/OCP) remains unaffected.
The value of VOV can be selected from the values
shown in Table 4 by setting bits VOV1, VOV0. These
bits are set by using the WCFIG instruction to write to
the configuration register.

Event Description
— Discharge FET is ON (UVP/OCP = VSS).
— Charge FET is ON (OVP/LMON = VSS), and hence battery cells are permitted to receive charge.
— All cell voltages (VCELL - VCELL4) are below the over-charge voltage threshold (VOV).
— The device is in normal operation mode (i.e. not in a protection mode).
— The voltage of one or more of the battery cells (VCELL), exceeds VOV.
— The internal over-charge detection delay timer begins counting down.
— The device is still in normal operation mode
(1,2)
The internal over-charge detection delay timer continues counting for TOV seconds.
[2]
The internal over-charge detection delay timer times out
AND
VCELL still exceeds VOV.
— Therefore, the internal over-charge sense circuitry switches the charge FET OFF (OVP/LMON=Vcc).
— The device has now entered over-charge protection mode.
(2,3)
[3]
While in over-charge protection mode:
— The battery cells are permitted to discharge via the discharge FET, and diode D2 across the charge FET
— The X3100 or X3101 monitors the voltages VCELL1 - VCELL4 to determine whether or not they have all fallen
below the “Return from over-charge threshold” (VOVR).
— (It is possible to change the status of UVP/OCP or OVP/LMON using the control register)
— All cell voltages fall below VOVR—The device is now in normal operation mode.
— The X3100/X3101 automatically switches charge FET = ON (OVP/LMON = Vss)
— The status of the discharge FET remains unaffected.
— Charging of the battery cells can now resume.

Over-discharge Protection
If VCELL < VUV, for a time exceeding TUV, the cells are
said to be in a over-discharge state (Figure 4). In this
instance, the X3100 and X3101 automatically switch
the discharge FET OFF (UVP/OCP = Vcc), and then
enter sleep mode.
The over-discharge (under-voltage) value, VUV, can be
selected from the values shown in Table 5 by setting
bits VUV1, VUV0 in the configuration register. These
bits are set using the WCFIG command. Once in the
sleep mode, the following steps must occur before the
X3100 or X3101 allows the battery cells to discharge:
– The X3100 and X3101 must wake from sleep mode
(see section “Voltage Regulator” on page 22).
– The charge FET must be switched ON by the microcontroller (OVP/LMON=VSS), via the control register
(see section “Control Register Functionality” on
page 11).
– All battery cells must satisfy the condition: VCELL >
VUVR for a time exceeding TUVR.
– The discharge FET must be switched ON by the
microcontroller (UVP/OCP=VSS), via the control register (see section “Control Register Functionality” on
page 11)
The times TUV/TUVR are varied using a capacitor (CUV)
connected between pin UVT and GND (Table 13). The
delay TUV that results from a particular capacitance CUV,
can be approximated by the following linear equation:
TUV (s) ≈ 10 x CUV (µF)
TUVR (ms) ≈ 70 x CUV (µF)

Sleep Mode
The X3100 or X3101 can enter sleep mode in two
ways:
A sleep mode can be induced by the user, by setting
the SLP bit in the control register (Table 13) using the
WCNTR Instruction.
In sleep mode, power to all internal circuitry is
switched off, minimizing the current drawn by the
device to 1µA (max). In this state, the discharge FET
and the charge FET are switched OFF
(OVP/LMON=VCC and UVP/OCP=VCC), and the 5VDC
regulated output (VRGO) is 0V. Control of UVP/OCP
and OVP/LMON via bits UVPC and OVPC in the control register is also prohibited.
The device returns from sleep mode when VCC ≥ VSLR.
(e.g. when the battery terminals are connected to a
battery charger). In this case, the X3100 or the X3101
restores the 5VDC regulated output (section “Voltage
Regulator” on page 22), and communication via the
SPI port resumes.
If the Cell Charge Enable function is enabled when
VCC rises above VSLR, the X3100 and X3101 internally
verifies that the individual battery cell voltages (VCELL)
are larger than the cell charge enable voltage (VCE)
before allowing the FETs to be turned on. The value
of VCE is selected by using the WCFIG command to
set bits VCE1–VCE0 in the configuration register.
Only if the condition “VCELL > VCE” is satisfied can
the state of charge and discharge FETs be changed
via the control register. Otherwise, if VCELL < VCE for
any battery cell then both the Charge FET and the discharge FET are OFF (OVP/LMON=Vcc and
UVP/OCP=VCC). Thus both charge and discharge of
the battery cells via terminals P+ / P- is prohibited1.
The cell charging threshold function can be switched
ON or OFF by the user, by setting bit SWCEN in the
configuration register (Table 7) using the WCFIG command. In the case that this cell charge enable function
is switched OFF, then VCE is effectively set to 0V.
Neither the X3100 nor the X3101 enter sleep mode
(automatically or manually, by setting the SLP bit) if
VCC ≥ VSLR. This is to ensure that the device does not
go into a sleep mode while the battery cells are at a
high voltage (e.g. during cell charging).
i) The device enters the over-discharge protection
mode.
ii) The user sends the device into sleep mode using the
control register.
1.
16
In this case, charging of the battery may resume ONLY if the
cell charge enable function is switched OFF by setting bit
SWCEN = 1 in the configuration register (See Above,
“CONFIGURATION REGISTER FUNCTIONALITY” on
page 9).

Note 1: If SWEN = 0 and VCELL < VCE, then OVP/LMON stays high and charging is prohibited.
Note 2: OVP/LMON stays high until the microcontroller writes a “1” to the OVPC bit in the control register. This sets the signal low, which turns on the
charge FET. It cannot be turned on prior to this time.
Note 3: UVP/OCP stays high until the microcontroller writes a “1” to the UVPC bit in the control register. This sets the signal low, which turns on the
discharge FET. The FET cannot be turned on prior to this time.

Over-Current Protection
In addition to monitoring the battery cell voltages, the
X3100 and X3101 continually monitor the voltage
VCS21 (VCS2 - VCS1) across the current sense resistor (RSENSE). If VCS21 > VOC for a time exceeding
TOC, then the device enters over-current protection
mode (Figure 7). In this mode, the X3100 and X3101
automatically switch the discharge FET OFF
(UVP/OCP = Vcc) and hence prevent current from
flowing through the terminals P+ and P-.
Figure 5. Over-Current Protection
P+
ILMON
Q2
If the load resistance > ROCR (ILMON = 0µA) for a time
exceeding TOCR, then the X3100 or X3101 is released
from over-current protection mode. The discharge FET
is then automatically switched ON (UVP/OCP = Vss)
by the X3100 or X3101, unless the status of UVP/OCP
has been changed in control register (by manipulating
bit UVPC) during the over-current protection mode.
TOC/TOCR are varied using a capacitor (COC) connected between pin OCT and VSS. A list of typical
delay times is shown in Table 23. Note that the value
COC should be larger than 1nF.
The delay TOC and TOCR that results from a particular
capacitance COC can be approximated by the following equations:

The 5VDC voltage regulator output (VRGO) is always
active during an over-current protection mode.
Once the device enters over-current protection mode,
the X3100 and X3101 begin a load monitor state. In
the load monitor state, a small current (ILMON = 7.5µA
typ.) is passed out of pin OVP/LMON in order to determine the load resistance. The load resistance is the
impedance seen looking out of pin OVP/LMON,
between terminal P+ and pin VSS (See Figure 5.)

The value of VOC can be selected from the values

configuration register using the WCFIG command.
Note: If the Charge FET is turned off, due to an overcharge condition or by direct command from the microcontroller, the cells are not in an undervoltage
condition and the pack has a load, then excessive current may flow through Q10 and diode D1. To eliminate
this effect, the gate of Q10 can be turned off by the
microcontroller through an unused X3101 cell balance
output, or directly from a microcontroller port instead of
connecting to VRGO.

MONITOR MODE
Analog Multiplexer Selection
The X3100 and X3101 can be used to externally monitor
individual battery cell voltages, and battery current. Each
quantity can be monitored at the analog output pin (AO),
and is selected using the analog select (AS0 - AS2) pins
(Table 25). Also, see Figure 7.
Since the value of the sense resistor (RSENSE) is small
(typically in the order of tens of mΩ), and since the
resolution of various A/D converters may vary, the
voltage across RSENSE (VCS1 and VCS2) is amplified
internally with a gain of between 10 and 160, and output to pin AO (Figure 7).

X3100, X3101
The internal gain of the X3100 or X3101 current sense
voltage amplifier can be selected by using the WCNTR
Instruction to set bits CSG1 and CSG0 in the control
register (Table 14). The CSG1 and CSG0 bits select
one of four input resistors to Op Amp OP1. The feedback resistors remain constant. This ratio of input to
feedback resistors determines the gain. Putting external resistors in series with the inputs reduces the gain of
the amplifier.
The maximum current that can flow from the voltage
regulator (ILMT) is controlled by the current limiting
resistor (RLMT) connected between RGP and VCC.
When the voltage across VCC and RGP reaches a
nominal 2.5V (i.e. the threshold voltage for the FET), Q2
switches ON, shorting VCC to the base of Q1. Since
the base voltage of Q1 is now higher than the emitter
voltage, Q1 switches OFF, and hence the supply current
goes to zero.
VCS1 and VCS2 are read at AO with respect to a DC
bias voltage of 2.5V. Therefore, the voltage range of
VCS12 and VCS21 changes depending upon the direction of current flow (i.e. battery cells are in Charge or
Discharge—Table 21).
Typical values for RLMT and ILMT are shown in Table
27. In order to protect the voltage regulator circuitry
from damage in case of a short-circuit, RLMT ≥ 10Ω
should always be used.

By calculating the difference of VCS12 and VCS21 the
offset voltage of the internal op-amp circuitry is cancelled. This allows for the accurate calculation of current flow into and out of the battery cells.

When choosing the value of RLMT, the drive limitations
of the PNP transistor used should also be taken into
consideration. The transistor should have a gain of at
least 100 to support an output current of 250mA.

The non-inverting input of OP1 is fed with a high precision 5VDC supply. The voltage at the output of the
voltage regulator (VRGO) is compared to this 5V reference via the inverting input of OP1. The output of OP1
in turn drives the regulator pnp transistor (Q1). The
negative feedback at the regulator output maintains
the voltage at 5VDC±0.5% (including ripple) despite
changes in load, and differences in regulator transistors.
4KBIT EEPROM MEMORY
When power is applied to pin VCC of the X3100 or
X3101, VRGO is regulated to 5VDC±10% for a nominal
time of TOC+2ms. During this time period, VRGO is
“tuned” to attain a final value of 5VDC±0.5% (Figure ).
The X3100 and X3101 contain a CMOS 4k-bit serial
EEPROM, internally organized as 512 x 8 bits. This
memory is accessible via the SPI port, and features
the IDLock function.

The 4kbit EEPROM array can be accessed by the SPI
port at any time, even during a protection mode, except
during sleep mode. After power is applied to VCC of the
X3100 or X3101, EEREAD and EEWRITE Instructions
can be executed only after times tPUR (power-up to
read time) and tPUW (power-up to write time) respectively.
IDLock is a programmable locking mechanism which
allows the user to lock data in different portions of the
EEPROM memory space, ranging from as little as one
page to as much as 1/2 of the total array. This is useful
for storing information such as battery pack serial
number, manufacturing codes, battery cell chemistry
data, or cell characteristics.
The IDLock protection byte contains the IDLock bits
IDL2-IDL0, which defines the particular partition to be
locked (Table 28). The rest of the bits [7:3] are unused
and must be written as zeroes. Bringing CS HIGH
after the two byte IDLock instruction initiates a nonvolatile write to the status register. Writing more than one
byte to the status register will overwrite the previously
written IDLock byte.
Once an IDLock instruction has been completed, that
IDLock setup is held in a nonvolatile IDLock Register
(Table 29) until the next IDLock instruction is issued. The
sections of the memory array that are IDLocked can be
read but not written until IDLock is removed or changed.
Table 29. IDLock Register
EEPROM Write Enable Latch
The X3100 and X3101 contain an EEPROM “Write
Enable” latch. This latch must be SET before a write to
EEPROM operation is initiated. The WREN instruction
will set the latch and the WRDI instruction will reset the
latch (Figure 9). This latch is automatically reset upon a
power-up condition and after the completion of a byte or
page write cycle.
IDLock Memory
Intersil’s IDLock memory provides a flexible mechanism to store and lock battery cell/pack information.
There are seven distinct IDLock memory areas within
the array which vary in size from one page to as much
as half of the entire array.
Prior to any attempt to perform an IDLock operation,
the WREN instruction must first be issued. This
instruction sets the “Write Enable” latch and allows the
part to respond to an IDLock sequence. The EEPROM
memory may then be IDLocked by writing the SET IDL
instruction (Table 30 and Figure 17), followed by the
IDLock protection byte.

X3100/X3101 SPI SERIAL COMMUNICATION
The X3100 and X3101 are designed to interface
directly with the synchronous Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) of many popular microcontroller families.
This interface uses four signals, CS, SCK, SI and SO.
The signal CS when low, enables communications
with the device. The SI pin carries the input signal and
SO provides the output signal. SCK clocks data in or
out. The X3100 and X3101 operate in SPI mode 0
which requires SCK to be normally low when not
transferring data. It also specifies that the rising edge
of SCK clocks data into the device, while the falling
edge of SCK clocks data out.
This SPI port is used to set the various internal registers, write to the EEPROM array, and select various
device functions.
The X3100 and X3101 contain an 8-bit instruction
register. It is accessed by clocking data into the SI
input. CS must be LOW during the entire operation.
Table 30 contains a list of the instructions and their
opcodes. All instructions, addresses and data are
transferred MSB first.
Data input is sampled on the first rising edge of SCK
after CS goes LOW. SCK is static, allowing the user to
stop the clock, and then start it again to resume operations where left off.

For a byte or page write operation to be completed,
CS can only be brought HIGH after bit 0 of the last
data byte to be written is clocked in. If it is brought
HIGH at any other time, the write operation will not be
completed. Refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 for
detailed illustration of the write sequences and time
frames in which CS going HIGH are valid.
EEPROM Write Sequence (EEWRITE)
Prior to any attempt to write data into the EEPROM of
the X3100 or X3101, the “Write Enable” latch must first
be set by issuing the WREN instruction (See Table 30
and Figure 9). CS is first taken LOW. Then the WREN
instruction is clocked into the X3100 or X3101. After all
eight bits of the instruction are transmitted, CS must
then be taken HIGH. If the user continues the write
operation without taking CS HIGH after issuing the
WREN instruction, the write operation will be ignored.
EEPROM Read Status Operation (EEREAD STAT)
If there is not a nonvolatile write in progress, the
EEREAD STAT instruction returns the IDLock byte
from the IDLock register which contains the IDLock
bits IDL2-IDL0 (Table 29). The IDLock bits define the
IDLock condition (Table 28). The other bits are
reserved and will return ‘0’ when read.
To write data to the EEPROM memory array, the user
issues the EEWRITE instruction, followed by the 16 bit
address and the data to be written. Only the last 9 bits
of the address are used and bits [15:9] are specified to
be zeroes. This is minimally a thirty-two clock operation. CS must go LOW and remain LOW for the duration of the operation. The host may continue to write
up to 16 bytes of data to the X3100 or X3101. The only
restriction is the 16 bytes must reside on the same
page. If the address counter reaches the end of the
page and the clock continues, the counter will “roll
over” to the first address of the page and overwrite any
data that may have been previously written.
If a nonvolatile write to the EEPROM (i.e. EEWRITE
instruction) is in progress, the EEREAD STAT returns
a HIGH on SO. When the nonvolatile write cycle in
the EEPROM is completed, the status register data is
read out.
Clocking SCK is valid during a nonvolatile write in
progress, but is not necessary. If the SCK line is
clocked, the pointer to the status register is also
clocked, even though the SO pin shows the status of
the nonvolatile write operation (See Figure 12).

EEPROM Read Sequence (EEREAD)
When reading from the X3100 or X3101 EEPROM
memory, CS is first pulled LOW to select the device.
The 8-bit EEREAD instruction is transmitted to the
X3100 or X3101, followed by the 16-bit address, of
which the last 9 bits are used (bits [15:9] specified to be
zeroes). After the EEREAD opcode and address are
sent, the data stored in the memory at the selected
address is shifted out on the SO line. The data stored in
memory at the next address can be read sequentially
by continuing to provide clock pulses. The address is
automatically incremented to the next higher address
after each byte of data is shifted out. When the highest
address is reached (01FFh), the address counter rolls
over to address 0000h, allowing the read cycle to be
continued indefinitely. The read operation is terminated
by taking CS HIGH. Refer to the EEPROM Read
(EEREAD) operation sequence illustrated in Figure 13.

Write Configuration Register (WCFIG)
Write Control Register (WCNTRL)
The Write Configuration Register (WCFIG) instruction updates the static part of the Configuration Register. These new values take effect immediately, for
example writing a new Over-discharge voltage limit.
However, to make these changes permanent, so they
remain if the cell voltages are removed, an EEWRITE
operation to the EEPROM array is required following
the WCFIG command. This command is shown in
Figure 14.
The Write Control Register (WCNTRL) instruction
updates the contents of the volatile Control Register.
This command sets the status of the FET control
pins, the cell balancing outputs, the current sense
gain and external entry to the sleep mode. Since this
instruction controls a volatile register, no other
commands are required and there is no delay time
needed after the instruction, before subsequent
commands. The operation of the WCNTRL command
is shown in Figure 15.

Read Status Register (RDSTAT)
Set ID Lock (SET IDL)
The Read Status Register (RDSTAT) command
returns the status of the X3100 or X3101. The Status
Register contains three bits that indicate whether the
voltage regulator is stabilized, and if there are any protection failure conditions. The operation of the
RDSTAT instruction is shown in Figure 16.
The contents of the EEPROM memory array in the
X3100 or X3101 can be locked in one of eight configurations using the SET ID lock command. When a section of the EEPROM array is locked, the contents
cannot be changed, even when a valid write operation
attempts a write to that area. The SET IDL command
operation is shown in Figure 17.
