General Description
The EC9525 is protection IC with Power MOS for over-charge/discharge of rechargeable
one-cell Lithium-ion(Li+) excess load current, further include a short circuit protector for
preventing large external short circuit current.
Each of these IC is composed of three voltage detectors, a reference unit, a delay circuit, a
short circuit protector, a logic circuit and two N-type Power MOS. When charging voltage crosses
the detector threshold from a low value to value higher than VDET1, the output of Cout pin, the
output of over-charge detector/VD1, switches to low level, charger’s negative pin level. After
detecting over-charge the VD1 can be reset and the output of Cout becomes high when the VDD
voltage is coming down to a level lower than “VREL1”, or when a kind of loading is connected to
VDD after a charger is disconnected from the battery pack while the VDD level is in between
“VDET1” and “VREL1” in the EC9525.
The output of Dout pin, the output of over-discharge detector/VD2, switches to low level after
internally fixed delay time passed, when discharging voltage crosses the detector threshold from a
high value lower than VDET2. After EC9525 detect the over-discharge voltage, connect a charger
to the battery pack, and when the battery supply voltage becomes higher than the over-discharge
detector threshold, VD2 is released and the voltage of Dout becomes “H” level.
An excess load current can be sensed and cut off after internally fixed delay time passed
through the built in excess current detector, VD3 with Dout being enabled to low level. Once after
detecting excess current, the VD3 is released and Dout level switches to high by detaching a battery
pack from a load system.
Further, short circuit protector makes Dout level to low immediately with external short circuit
current and re-moving external short circuit leads Dout level to high. After detecting
over-discharge, supply current will be kept extremely low by halt some internal circuits operation.
The output delay of over-charge detectors can be set by connecting internal capacitors. Output type
of Cout and Dout are observed. 8-pin package, SOP-8 is available.

Absolute Maximum ratings are threshold limit values that must not be exceeded ever for an
instant under any conditions. Moreover, such values for any two items must not be reached
simultaneously. Operation above these absolute maximum ratings may cause degradation or
permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only and do not necessarily imply
functional operation below these limits.

OPERATION
VD1/Over-Charge Detector
The VD1 monitors VDD pin voltage. When the VDD voltage crosses over charge detector
threshold VDET1 from a low value to a value higher than the VDET1, the VD1 can sense a
over-charging and an external charge control Nch-MOS-FET turns to “OFF” with Cout pin being at
“L” level.
There can be two cases to reset the VD1 making the Cout pin level to “H” again after detecting
over-charge. Resetting the VD1 can make charging system allowable to resumption of charging
process. The first case is in such conditions that a time when the VDD voltage is coming down to a
level lower than “VREL1”. While in the second case, connecting a kind of loading to VDD after
disconnecting a charger from the battery pack can make the VD1 resetting when the VDD level is
in between “VDET1” and “VREL1”.
After detecting over-charge with the VDD voltage of higher than VDET1, connecting system
load to the battery pack makes load current allowable through parasitic diode of external charge
control FET. The Cout level would be high when the VDD level is coming down to a level below
the VDET1 by continuous drawing of load current.
An output delay time for over-charge detection can be set by external capacitor C3 connecting
between the Vss pin and Ct pin. The external capacitor can make a delay time from a moment
detecting over-charge to a time output a signal which enables charge control FET turn off.
When the VDD level is going up to a higher level than VDET1 if the VDD voltage would be back
to a level lower than the VDET1 within a time period of the output delay time, VD1 would not
output a signal for turning off the charge control FET.
A level shifter incorporated in a buffer driver for the Cout pin makes the “L” level of Cout pin
to the V- pin voltage and the “H” level of Cout pin is set to VDD voltage with CMOS buffer
VD2/Over-Discharge Detector
The VD2 is monitoring a VDD pin voltage. When the VDD voltage crosses the over-discharge
detector threshold VDET2 from a high value to a value lower than the VDET2, the VD2 can sense
an over-discharging and the external discharge control Nch MOSFT turns to “OFF” with the Dout
pin being at “L” level.
To reset the VD2 with the Dout pin level being “H” again after detecting over-discharge it is
necessary to connect a charger to the battery pack for EC9525. When the VDD voltage stays under
over-discharge detector threshold VDET2 charge current can flow through parasitic diode of
external discharge control MOSFET, then after the VDD voltage comes up to a value larger than
VDET2, Dout becomes “H” and discharging process would be able to advance through ON state
MOSFET for discharge control.
Connecting a charger to the battery pack makes the Dout level being “H” instantaneously when
the VDD voltage is higher than VDET2.

Besides, for EC9525, when a cell voltage reaches equal or more than over-discharge released
voltage, or VDET2, over-discharge condition can be also released.
An output delay time for the over-discharge detection is fixed internally, tVDET2 =10ms typ. At
VDD=2.4V. When the VDD level is going down to a lower level than VDET2 if the VDD voltage
would be back to a level higher than the VDET2 within a time period of the output delay time, VD2
would not output a signal for turning off the discharge control FET.
After detection of an over-discharge by VD2, supply current would be reduced to typ. 0.3uA at
VDD=2.0V and into standby, only the charger detector is operating.
The output type of Dout pin is CMOS having “H” level of VDD and “L” level of Vss.
VD3/Excess Current Detector, Short Circuit Protector
Both of the excess current detector and short circuit protector can work when both control
FETs are in “ON” state. When the V- pin voltage is going up to a value between the short
protection voltage Vshort/VDD and excess current threshold VDET3, the excess current detector
operates and further soaring of V- pin voltage higher than Vshort makes the short circuit protector
enabled. This leads the external discharge control Nch MOSFET turn off with the Dout pin being at
“L” level.
An output delay time for the excess current detector is internally fixed, 13ms typ. At
VDD=3.0V. Aquick recovery of V- pin level from a value between Vshort and VDET3 within the
delay time keeps the discharge control FET staying “H” state.
When the short circuit protector is enabled, the Dout would be low and its delay time would be 5us
typ. The V- pin has a built-in pulled down resistor, typ. 100kOhm with connecting to the Vss pin.
After an excess current or short circuit protection is detected, removing a cause of excess
current or external short circuit makes an external discharge control FET to an “ON” state
automatically with the V- pin level being down to the Vss level through pulled down resistor
built-in internally.
If VDD voltage would be higher than VDET2 at a time when the excess current is detected the
EC9525 does not enter a standby mode, or otherwise in case of lower VDD voltage than VDET2
would lead the EC9525 into a standby. After detecting short circuit the EC9525 will not enter a
standby mode.

Application Circuits
Application Hints
R1 and C1 will stabilize a supply voltage to the EC9525. A recommended R1 value is less than
1kOhm. A larger value of R1 leads higher detection voltage, makes some errors, because of shoot
through current flowed in the EC9525.
R1 and R2 may cause power consumption over rating of power dissipation of the EC9525 and
a total of “R1+R2” should be more than 1kOhm.
