GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The NE57600 series is a family of small, high-precision lithium-ion
battery protection devices that provide protection against the
damaging effects of overcharging, overdischarging, short circuit, and

uses the battery for an apparatus it was not meant to power. The
NE57600 is a single-cell Li-ion protection IC.
The NE57600 over and under voltage accuracy is trimmed to within
±25 mV (5%) and is available to match the requirements of all
lithium-ion cells manufactured in the market today.

TECHNICAL DISCUSSION
NE57600
Lithium Cell Operating Characteristics
The internal resistance of lithium cells is in the 100 mΩ range,
compared to the 5–20 mΩ of the nickel-based batteries. This makes
the Lithium-ion and polymer cells better for lower battery current
applications (less than 1 ampere) as found in cellular and wireless
telephones, palmtop and laptop computers, etc.
Lithium Cell Safety
Lithium-ion and lithium-polymer cells have a higher energy density
than that of nickel-cadmium or nickel metal hydride cells and have a
much lighter weight. This makes the lithium cells attractive for use in
portable products. However, lithium cells require a protection circuit
within the battery pack because certain operating conditions can be
hazardous to the battery or the operator, if allowed to continue.
The average operating voltage of a lithium-ion or polymer cell is
3.6 V as compared to the 1.2 V of NiCd and NiMH cells. The typical
discharge curve for Lithium cell is shown in Figure 6.
Lithium cells have a porous carbon or graphite anode where lithium
ions can lodge themselves in the pores. The lithium ions are
separated, which avoids the hazards of metallic lithium.
OPEN-CIRCUIT CELL VOLTAGE (V)
If the lithium cell is allowed to become overcharged, metallic lithium
plates out onto the surface of the anode and volatile gas is
generated within the cell. This creates a rapid-disassembly hazard
(the battery ruptures). If the cell is allowed to over-discharge (Vcell
less than approximately 2.3 V), then the copper metal from the
cathode goes into the electrolyte solution. This shortens the cycle
life of the cell, but presents no safety hazard. If the cell experiences
excessive charge or discharge currents, as happens if the wrong
charger is used, or if the terminals short circuit, the internal series
resistance of the cell creates heating and generates the volatile gas
which could rupture the battery.
The protection circuit continuously monitors the cell voltage for an
overcharged condition or an overdischarged condition. It also
continuously monitors the output for an overcurrent condition. If
any of these conditions are encountered, the protection circuit opens
a series MOSFET switch to terminate the abnormal condition. The
lithium cell protection circuit is placed within the battery pack very
close to the cell.

Charging control versus battery protection
The battery pack industry does not recommend using the pack’s
internal protection circuit to end the charging process. The external
battery charger should have a charge termination circuit in it, such
as that provided by the SA57611. This provides two levels of
overcharge protection, with the primary protection of the external
charge control circuit and the backup protection from the battery
pack’s protection circuit. The charge termination circuit will be set to
stop charging at a level around 50 mV less than the overvoltage
threshold voltage of the battery pack’s own protection circuit.

Charging Lithium Cells
The lithium cells must be charged with a dedicated charging IC such
as the NE57600. These dedicated charging ICs perform a
current-limited, constant-voltage charge, as shown in Figure 7.
CHARGE CURRENT (%C)
1.0
The charger IC begins charging with a current that is typically the
rating of the cell (1C) or the milliampere rating of the cell. As the cell
approaches its full-charge voltage rating (VOV), the current entering
the cell decreases, and the charger IC provides a constant voltage.
When the charge current falls below a preset amount, 50 mA for
example, the charge is discontinued.
If charging is begun below the overdischarged voltage rating of the
cell, it is important to slowly raise the cell voltage up to this
overdischarged voltage level. This is done by a reconditioning
charge. A small amount of current is provided to the cell (50 mA for
example), and the cell voltage is allowed a period of time to rise to
the overdischarged voltage. If the cell voltage recovers, then a
normal charging sequence can begin. If the cell does not reach the
overdischarged voltage level, then the cell is too damaged to charge
and the charge is discontinued.

To take advantage of the larger energy density of lithium cells it is
important to allow enough time to completely charge the cell . When
the charger switches from constant current to constant voltage
charge (Point B, Figure 7) the cell only contains about 80 percent of
its full capacity. When the cell is 100 mV less than its full rated
charge voltage the capacity contained within the cell is 95 percent.
Hence, allowing the cell to slowly complete its charge takes
advantage of the larger capacity of the lithium cells.

overcurrent threshold voltage (VOC(TH)), then the discharge
MOSFET is turned OFF after a fixed 7–18 ms delay. If short-circuit
is placed across the pack’s terminals, then the discharge MOSFET
is turned OFF after a 100–300 ms delay to avoid damaging the
MOSFETs.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
The NE57600 drives the series N-Channel MOSFETs to states
determined by the cell’s voltage and the battery pack load current.
During normal operation, both the discharge and charge MOSFETs
are ON, allowing bidirectional current flow.
If the battery pack is being charged, and the cell’s voltage exceeds
the overvoltage threshold, then the charge MOSFET is turned OFF.
The cell’s voltage must fall lower than the overvoltage hysteresis
voltage (VOV(Hyst)) before the charge MOSFET is again turned ON.
The R-C filter on the VCC pin
An R-C filter is needed on the VCC pin, primarily to shield the IC
from electrostatic energy and spikes on the terminals of the battery
pack. A secondary need is during the occurrence of a short-circuit
across the battery pack terminals. Here, the Li-ion cell voltage could
collapse and cause the IC to enter an unpowered state. The R-C
filter provides power during the first instant of the short circuit,
allowing the IC to turn OFF the discharge MOSFET before the IC
loses power. The R-C filter also filters any voltage noise caused by
noisy load current. The values shown in Figure 9 are adequate for
these purposes.
If the battery pack is being discharged and the undervoltage
threshold (VUV(Th)) is exceeded, then the discharge MOSFET is
turned OFF. It will not turn back ON until a charger is applied to the
pack’s external terminals AND the cell’s voltage rises above the
undervoltage hysteresis voltage (VUV(Hyst)).
When the battery pack is being discharged, if the load current
causes the voltage across the discharge MOSFET to exceed the

Selecting the Optimum MOSFETs
For a single-cell battery pack, a logic-level MOSFET should be
used. These MOSFETs have turn-on thresholds of 0.9 V and are
considered full-on at 4.5 V VGS. Some problem may be
encountered in not having enough gate voltage to fully turn-ON the
series MOSFETs over the battery pack entire operating voltage. If
one deliberately selects an N-Channel MOSFET with a much
greater current rating, a lower RDS(on) over the entire range can be
attained.
The MOSFETs should have a voltage rating greater than 20 V and
should have a high avalanche rating to survive any spikes
generated across the battery pack terminals.
The current rating of the MOSFETs should be greater than four
times the maximum “C-rating” of the cells. The current rating,
though, is more defined by the total series resistance of the battery
pack. The total resistance of the battery pack is given by Equation 1.
Overdischarge detection voltage < battery
voltage <overcharge detection voltage
Discharge current < overcurrent detection
level
Battery voltage > overcharge detection
voltage
Overdischarge detection voltage > battery
voltage
Discharge current > overcurrent detection
level
voltage between VM and GND =
discharge current × FET ON resistance
(discharge or charge FET)
Rbat(tot) = RDS(on) + Rcell
(Equation 1)
The total pack resistance is typically determined by the system
requirements. The total pack resistance directly determines how
much voltage droop will occur during pulses in load current.
Another consideration is the forward-biased safe operating area of
the MOSFET. During a short-circuit, the discharge current can easily
reach 10–15 times the “C-rating” of the cells. The MOSFET must
survive this current prior to the discharge MOSFET can be turned
OFF. So having an FBSOA envelope that exceeds 20 amperes for
5 ms would be safe.
