Overcharging can result in a reduction of battery life as well as physical harm to the end user. Since most portable applications require the batteries to be charged rapidly, a primary and usually a secondary or redundant charge sensing technique is employed into the charging system. It is also desirable to disable rapid charging if the battery voltage or temperature is either too high or too low. In order to address these issues, an economical and flexible fast charge controller was developed. The MC33340 contains many of the building blocks and protection features that are employed in modern high performance battery charger controllers that are specifically designed for Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride batteries. The device is designed to interface with either primary or secondary side regulators for easy implementation of a complete charging system. A representative block diagram in a typical charging application is shown in Figure 7. The battery voltage is monitored by the Vsen input that internally connects to a voltage to frequency converter and 4 counter for detection of a negative slope in battery voltage. A timer with three programming inputs is available to provide backup charge termination. Alternatively, these inputs can be used to monitor the battery pack temperature and to set the over and under temperature limits also for backup charge termination. Two active low open collector outputs are provided to interface this controller with the external charging circuit. The first output furnishes a gating pulse that momentarily interrupts the charge current. This allows an accurate method of sampling the battery voltage by eliminating voltage drops that are associated with high charge currents and wiring resistances. Also, any noise voltages generated by the charging circuitry are eliminated. The second output is designed to switch the charging source between fast and trickle modes based upon the results of voltage, time, or temperature. These outputs normally connect directly to a linear or switching regulator control circuit in non–isolated primary or secondary side applications. Both outputs can be used to drive optoisolators in primary side applications that require galvanic isolation. Figure 8 shows the typical charge characteristics for NiCd and NiMh batteries.

A change to the trickle mode can occur as a result of three possible conditions. The first is if the Vsen input voltage is above 2.0 V or below 1.0 V. Above 2.0 V indicates that the battery pack is open or disconnected, while below 1.0 V indicates the possibility of a shorted or defective cell. The second condition is if a negative slope in battery voltage is detected after a minimum of 177 seconds of fast charging. This indicates that the battery pack is fully charged. The third condition is either due to the battery pack being out of a programmed temperature range, or that the preset timer period has been exceeded. There are three conditions that will cause the controller to return from trickle to fast charge mode. The first is if the Vsen input voltage moved to within the 1.0 to 2.0 V range from initially being either too high or too low. The second is if the battery pack temperature moved to within the programmed temperature range, but only from initially being too cold. Third is by cycling VCC off and then back on causing the internal logic to reset. A concise description of the major circuit blocks is given below. Negative Slope Voltage Detection A representative block diagram of the negative slope voltage detector is shown in Figure 9. It includes a Synchronous Voltage to Frequency Converter, a Sample Timer, and a Ratchet Counter. The Vsen pin is the input for the Voltage to Frequency Converter (VFC), and it connects to the rechargeable battery pack terminals through a resistive voltage divider. The input has an impedance of approximately 6.0 MΩ and a maximum voltage range of –1.0 V to VCC + 0.6 V or 0 V to 10 V, whichever is lower. The 10 V upper limit is set by an internal zener clamp that provides protection in the event of an electrostatic discharge. The VFC is a charge–balanced synchronous type which generates output pulses at a rate of FV = Vsen (24 kHz). The Sample Timer circuit provides a 95 kHz system clock signal (SCK) to the VFC. This signal synchronizes the FV output to the other Sample Timer outputs used within the detector. At 1.38 second intervals the Vsen Gate output goes low for a 33 ms period. This output is used to momentarily interrupt the external charging power source so that a precise voltage measurement can be taken. As the Vsen Gate goes low, the internal Preset control line is driven high for 11 ms. During this time, the battery voltage at the Vsen input is allowed to stabilize and the previous FV count is preloaded. At the Preset high–to–low transition, the Convert line goes high for 22 ms. This gates the FV pulses into the ratchet counter for a comparison to the preloaded count. Since the Convert time is derived from the same clock that controls the VFC, the number of FV pulses is independent of the clock frequency. If the new sample has more counts than were preloaded, it becomes the new peak count and the cycle is repeated 1.38 seconds later. If the new sample has two fewer counts, a less than peak voltage event has occurred, and a register is initialized. If two successive less than peak voltage events occur, the –∆V ‘AND’ gate output goes high and the Fast/Trickle output is latched in a low state, signifying that the battery pack has reached full charge status. Negative slope voltage detection can only occur after 177 seconds have elapsed in the fast charge mode. The trickle mode holdoff time is implemented to ignore any initial drop in voltage that may occur when charging batteries that have been stored for an extended time period. The negative slope voltage detector has a maximum resolution of 2.0 V divided by 1023, or 1.955 mV per count with an uncertainty of ±1.0 count. This yields a detection range of 1.955 mV to 5.865 mV. In order to obtain maximum sensing accuracy, the R2/R1 voltage divider must be adjusted so that the Vsen input voltage is slightly less than 2.0 V when the battery pack is fully charged. Voltage variations due to temperature and cell manufacturing must be considered. Figure 9.

Under extremely cold conditions, it is possible that the thermistor resistance can become too high, allowing the t2/Tsen input to go above VCC – 0.7 V, and activate the timer. This condition can be prevented by placing a resistor in parallel with the thermistor. Note that the time/temperature threshold of VCC – 0.7 V is a typical value at room temperature. Refer to the Electrical Characteristics table and to Figure 3 for additional information. The upper comparator senses the presence of an over temperature condition. When the upper temperature limit is exceeded, the comparator output sets the Over Temperature Latch and the charger is switched to trickle mode. Once the latch is set, the charger cannot be returned to fast charge, even after the temperature falls below the limit. This feature prevents the battery pack from being continuously temperature cycled and overcharged. The latch can be reset by removing and reconnecting the battery pack or by cycling the power supply voltage. If the charger does not require either the time or temperature backup features, they can both be easily disabled. This is accomplished by biasing the t3/Tref Low input to a voltage greater than t2/Tsen, and by grounding the t1/Tref High input. Under these conditions, the Time/Temp Select comparator output is low, indicating that the temperature mode is selected, and that the t2/Tsen input is biased within the limits of an artificial temperature window. Charging of battery packs that are used in portable power tool applications typically use temperature as the only means for fast charge termination. The MC33340 can be configured in this manner by constantly resetting the –∆V detection logic. This is accomplished by biasing the Vsen input to ≈1.5 V from a two resistor divider that is connected between the positive battery pack terminal and ground. The Vsen Gate output is also connected to the Vsen input. Now, each time that the Sample Timer causes the Vsen output to go low, the Vsen input will be pulled below the undervoltage threshold of 1.0 V. This causes a reset of the –∆V logic every 1.38 seconds, thus disabling detection. Fast Charge Timer A programmable backup charge timer is available for fast charge termination. The timer is activated by the Time/Temp Select comparator, and is programmed from the t1/Tref High, t2/Tsen, and t3/Tref Low inputs. If one or more of these inputs is allowed to go above VCC – 0.7 V or is left open, the comparator output will switch high, indicating that the timer feature is desired. The three inputs allow one of seven possible fast charge time limits to be selected. The programmable time limits, rounded to the nearest whole minute, are shown in Figure 10. Over/Under Temperature Detection A backup over/under temperature detector is available and can be used in place of the timer for fast charge termination. The timer is disabled by the Time/Temp Select comparator when each of the three programming inputs are held below VCC – 0.7 V. Temperature sensing is accomplished by placing a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor in thermal contact with the battery pack. The thermistor connects to the t2/Tsen input which has a 30 µA current source pull–up for developing a temperature dependent voltage. The temperature limits are set by a resistor that connects from the t1/Tref High and the t3/Tref Low inputs to ground. Since all three inputs contain matched 30 µA current source pull–ups, the required programming resistor values are identical to that of the thermistor at the desired over and under trip temperature. The temperature window detector is composed of two comparators with a common input that connects to the t2/Tsen input. The lower comparator senses the presence of an under temperature condition. When the lower temperature limit is exceeded, the charger is switched to the trickle mode. The comparator has 44 mV of hysteresis to prevent erratic switching between the fast and trickle modes as the lower temperature limit is crossed. The amount of temperature rise to overcome the hysteresis is determined by the thermistor’s rate of resistance change or sensitivity at the under temperature trip point. The required resistance change is: VH(T) 44 mV DR(TLow T High) 1.46 k I 30 mA in The resistance change approximates a thermal hysteresis of 2°C with a 10 kΩ thermistor operating at 0°C. The under temperature fast charge inhibit feature can be disabled by biasing the t3/Tref Low input to a voltage that is greater than ³ + + Operating Logic The order of events in the charging process is controlled by the logic circuitry. Each event is dependent upon the input conditions and the chosen method of charge termination. A table summary containing all of the possible operating modes is shown in Figure 11. + Figure 10.

Controller Operating Mode Table Input Condition Vsen Input Voltage: >1.0 V and <2.0 V Controller Operation The divided down battery pack voltage is within the fast charge voltage range. The charger switches from trickle to fast charge mode as Vsen enters this voltage range, and a reset pulse is then applied to the timer and the over temperature latch. >1.0 V and <2.0 V with two consecutive –∆V events detected after 160 s The battery pack has reached full charge and the charger switches from fast to a latched trickle mode. A reset pulse must be applied for the charger to switch back to the fast mode. The reset pulse occurs when entering the 1.0 V to 2.0 V window for Vsen or when VCC rises above 3.0 V. <1.0 V or >2.0 V The divided down battery pack voltage is outside of the fast charge voltage range. The charger switches from fast to trickle mode. Timer Backup: Within time limit Beyond time limit Temperature Backup: Within limits The timer has not exceeded the programmed limit. The charger will be in fast charge mode if Vsen and VCC are within their respective operating limits. The timer has exceeded the programmed limit. The charger switches from fast to a latched trickle mode. The battery pack temperature is within the programmed limits. The charger will be in fast charge mode if Vsen and VCC are within their respective operating limits. Below lower limit The battery pack temperature is below the programmed lower limit. The charger will stay in trickle mode until the lower temperature limit is exceeded. When exceeded, the charger will switch from trickle to fast charge mode. Above upper limit The battery pack temperature has exceeded the programmed upper limit. The charger switches from fast to a latched trickle mode. A reset signal must be applied and then released for the charger to switch back to the fast charge mode. The reset pulse occurs when entering the 1.0 V to 2.0 V window for Vsen or when VCC rises above 3.0 V. Power Supply Voltage: VCC >3.0 V and <18 V VCC >0.6 V and <2.8 V This is the nominal power supply operating voltage range. The charger will be in fast charge mode if Vsen, and temperature backup or timer backup are within their respective operating limits. The undervoltage lockout comparator will be activated and the charger will be in trickle mode. A reset signal is applied to the timer and over temperature latch. Testing Under normal operating conditions, it would take 283 minutes to verify the operation of the 34 stage ripple counter used in the timer. In order to significantly reduce the test time, three digital switches were added to the circuitry and are used to bypass selected divider stages. Entering each of the test modes without requiring additional package pins or affecting normal device operation proved to be challenging. Refer to the timer functional block diagram in Figure 12. Switch 1 bypasses 19 divider stages to provide a 524,288 times speedup of the clock. This switch is enabled when the Vsen input falls below 1.0 V. Verification of the programmed fast charge time limit is accomplished by measuring the propagation delay from when the Vsen input falls below 1.0 V, to when the F/T output changes from a high–to–low state. The 71, 106, 141, 177, 212, 247 and 283 will now correspond to 8.1, 12.1, 16.2, 20.2, 24.3, 28.3 and 32.3 ms delays. It is possible to enter this test mode during operation if the equivalent battery pack voltage was to fall below 1.0 V. This will not present a problem since the device would normally switch from fast to trickle mode under these conditions, and the relatively short variable time delay would be transparent to the user. 8 Switch 2 bypasses 11 divider stages to provide a 2048 times speedup of the clock. This switch is necessary for testing the 19 stages that were bypassed when switch 1 was enabled. Switch 2 is enabled when the Vsen input falls below 1.0 V and the t1/Tref High input is biased at –100 mV. Verification of the 19 stages is accomplished by measuring a nominal propagation delay of 338.8 ms from when the Vsen input falls below 1.0 V, to when the F/T output changes from a high–to–low state. Switch 3 is a dual switch consisting of sections “A” and “B”. Section “A” bypasses 5 divider stages to provide a 32 times speedup of the Vsen gate signal that is used in sampling the battery voltage. This speedup allows faster test verification of two successive –∆V events. Section “B” bypasses 11 divider stages to provide a 2048 speedup of the trickle mode holdoff timer. Switches 3A and 3B are both activated when the t1/Tref High input is biased at –100 mV with respect to Pin 4. Activation results in a reduction of the Vsen gate sample rate from 1.38 s to 43 ms, and a trickle mode holdoff time of 177 s to 86 ms. MOTOROLA ANALOG IC DEVICE DATA MC33340 Figure 12.

Regulator IC2 operates as a constant current source with R7 setting the fast charge level. The trickle charge level is set by R5. The R2/R1 divider should be adjusted so that the Vsen input is less than 2.0 V when the batteries are fully charged. The printed circuit board shown below will accept the several TO–220 style heatsinks for IC2 and are all manufactured by AAVID Engineering Inc.

In this example, optocouplers OC1 and OC2 are used to provide isolated control signals to the UC3842. During battery voltage sensing, OC2 momentarily grounds the Output/Compensation pin, effectively turning off the charger. When fast charge termination is reached, OC1 turns on, and grounds the lower side of R3. This reduces the peak switch current threshold of the Current Sense Comparator to a programmed trickle current level. For additional converter design information, refer to the UC3842 and UC3844 device family data sheets. 10 MOTOROLA ANALOG IC DEVICE DATA MC33340 Figure 16.

These devices are capable of operating continuously in current limit with an input voltage range of 7.5 to 40 V. The typical charging current for the MC34166 and MC34167 is 4.3 A and 6.5 A respectively. Resistors R2 and R1 are used to set the battery pack fast charge float voltage. If precise float voltage control is not required, components R1, R2, R3 and C1 can be deleted, and Pin 1 must be grounded. The trickle current level is set by resistor R4. It is recommended that a redundant charge termination method be employed for end user protection. This is especially true for fast charger systems. For additional converter design information, refer to the MC34166 and MC34167 data sheets.
