OPERATION
1. Normal Condition
This IC monitors the voltage of the battery connected between the VDD pin and VSS pin and the voltage
difference between the VM pin and VSS pin to control charging and discharging. When the battery voltage is in the
range from overdischarge detection voltage (VDL) to overcharge detection voltage (VCU), and the VM pin voltage is in
the range from the charge overcurrent detection voltage (VCIOV) to discharge overcurrent detection voltage (VDIOV),
the IC turns both the charging and discharging control FETs on. This condition is called the normal conditon, and in
this condition charging and discharging can be carried out freely.
The resistance (RVMD) between the VM pin and VDD pin, and the resistance (RVMS) between the VM pin and VSS
pin are not connected in the normal status.
Note: When the battery is connected for the first time, discharging may not be enabled. In this case, short the VM pin
and VSS pin or connect the charger to restore the normal condition.
2. Overcharge Condition
When the battery voltage becomes higher than overcharge detection voltage (VCU) during charging in the
normal condition and this state continues for the overcharge detection delay time (tCU), the UTC UB211C Series
turns the charging control FET off to stop charging. This state is called the overcharge condition.
The resistance (RVMD) between the VM pin and VDD pin, and the resistance (RVMS) between the VM pin and VSS
pin are not connected in the overcharge condition.The overcharge condition is released in the following two cases.
(1) When the VM pin voltage is higher than or equal to the charge overcurrent detection voltage (VCIOV), and is
lower than the discharge overcurrent detection voltage (VDIOV), UTC UB211C Series releases the overcharge status
when the battery voltage falls below the overcharge release voltage (VCL).
(2) When the VM pin voltage is higher than or equal to the discharge overcurrent detection voltage (VDIOV), UTC
UB211C Series releases the overcharge condition when the battery voltage falls below the overcharge detection
voltage (VCU).
The discharge is started by connecting a load after the overcharge detection, the VM pin voltage rises more
than the voltage at VSS pin, because the discharge current flows through the charging control FET. If this VM pin
voltage is higher than or equal to the discharge overcurrent detection voltage (VDIOV), UTC UB211C Series releases
the overcharge status when the battery voltage is lower than or equal to the overcharge detection voltage (VCU).
For the actual application boards, changing the battery voltage and the charger voltage simultaneously enables
to measure the overcharge release voltage (VCL). In this case, the charger is always necessary to have the
equivalent voltage level to the battery voltage. The charger keeps VM pin voltage higher than or equal to the charge
overcurrent detection voltage (VCIOV) and lower than or equal to the discharge overcurrent detection voltage (VDIOV).
UTC UB211C Series releases the overcharge status when the battery voltage falls below the overcharge release
voltage (VCL).
Note 1. If the battery is charged to a voltage higher than overcharge detection voltage (VCU) and the battery voltage
does not fall below overcharge detection voltage (VCU) even when a heavy load is connected, discharge
overcurrent detection and load short-circuiting detection do not function until the battery voltage falls below
overcharge detection voltage (VCU). Since an actual battery has an internal impedance of tens of mΩ, the
battery voltage drops immediately after a heavy load that causes overcurrent is connected, and discharge
overcurrent detection and load shortcircuiting detection function.
Note 2. When a charger is connected after overcharge detection, the overcharge status is not released even if the
battery voltage is below overcharge release voltage (VCL). The overcharge status is released when the VM
pin voltage goes over the charge overcurrent detection voltage (VCIOV) by removing the charger.
3. Overdischarge Condition
When the battery voltage falls below overdischarge detection voltage (VDL) during discharging in the normal
status and the detection continues for the overdischarge detection delay time (tDL) or longer, the UTC UB211C
Series turns the discharging control FET off to stop discharging. This condition is called the overdischarge status.
Under the overdischarge status, the VM pin voltage is pulled up by the resistor between the VM pin and VDD pin in
the IC (RVMD). When voltage difference between the VM pin and VDD pin then is 1.3 V (Typ.) or lower, the current
consumption is reduced to the power-down current consumption (IPDN). This condition is called the power-down
status. The resistance (RVMS) between the VM pin and VSS pin is not connected in the power-down status and the
overdischarge status.
The power-down status is released when a charger is connected and the voltage difference between the VM pin
and VDD pin becomes 1.3 V (typ.) or higher.
When a battery in the overdischarge condition is connected to a charger and provided that the VM pin voltage is
lower than -0.7 V (Typ.), the UTC UB211C Series releases the overdischarge status and turns the discharging FET
on when the battery voltage reaches overdischarge detection voltage (VDL) or higher.
When a battery in the overdischarge status is connected to a charger and provided that the VM pin voltage is
not lower than -0.7 V (Typ.), the UTC UB211C Series releases the overdischarge status when the battery voltage
reaches overdischarge release voltage (VDU) or higher.

4. Discharge Overcurrent Condition (Discharge Overcurrent, Load Short-circuiting)
When a battery in the normal condition is in the status where the voltage of the VM pin is equal to or higher than
the discharge overcurrent detection voltage because the discharge current is higher than the specified value and the
status lasts for the discharge overcurrent detection delay time, the discharge control FET is turned off and
discharging is stopped. This status is called the discharge overcurrent condition.
In the discharge overcurrent condition, the VM pin and VSS pin are shorted by the resistor between VM pin and
VSS pin (RVMS) in the IC. However, the voltage of the VM pin is at the VDD potential due to the load as long as the load
is connected. When the load is disconnected, the VM pin returns to the VSS potential.
This IC detects the condition when the impedance between the EB+ pin and EB− pin (Refer to the typical
application circuit) increases and is equal to the impedance that enables automatic restoration and the voltage at
the VM pin returns to discharge overcurrent detection voltage (VDIOV) or lower, the discharge overcurrent condition is
restored to the normal condition.
Even if the connected impedance is smaller than automatic restoration level, the UTC UB211C Series will be
restored to the normal status from discharge overcurrent detection status when the voltage at the VM pin becomes
the discharge overcurrent detection voltage (VDIOV) or lower by connecting the charger.
The resistance (RVMD) between the VM pin and VDD pin is not connected in the discharge overcurrent detection
condition.
5. Charge Overcurrent Condition
When a battery in the normal status is in the status where the voltage of the VM pin is lower than the charge
overcurrent detection voltage because the charge current is higher than the specified value and the status lasts for
the charge overcurrent detection delay time, the charge control FET is turned off and charging is stopped. This
status is called the charge overcurrent status.
This IC will be restored to the normal status from the charge overcurrent status when, the voltage at the VM pin
returns to charge overcurrent detection voltage (VCIOV) or higher by removing the charger.
The charge overcurrent detection function does not work in the overdischarge status.
The resistance (RVMD) between the VM pin and VDD pin, and the resistance (RVMS) between the VM pin and
VSS pin are not connected in the charge overcurrent status.
6. 0 V Battery Charging Function “Unavailable”
This function inhibits recharging when a battery that is internally short-circuited (0 V battery) is connected.
When the battery voltage is the 0 V battery charge inhibition battery voltage (V0INH) or lower, the charging control
FET gate is fixed to the EB− pin (Refer to the typical application circuit) voltage to inhibit charging. When the
battery voltage is the 0 V battery charge inhibition battery voltage (V0INH) or higher, charging can be performed.
Caution Some battery providers do not recommend charging for a completely self-discharged battery. Please
ask the battery provider to determine whether to enable or inhibit the 0 V battery charging function.
7. Delay Circuit
(1) The discharge overcurrent detection delay time (tDIOV) and the load short-circuiting detection delay time
(tSHORT) start when the discharge overcurrent detection voltage (VDIOV) is detected. When the load shortcircuiting
detection voltage (VSHORT) is detected over the load short-circuiting detection delay time (tSHORT) after the detection of
discharge overcurrent detection voltage (VDIOV), the UTC UB211C turns the discharging control FET off within tSHORT
from the time of detecting VSHORT.
(2) When any overcurrent is detected and the overcurrent continues for longer than the overdischarge detection
delay time (tDL) without the load being released, the status changes to the power-down status at the point where the
battery voltage falls below overdischarge detection voltage (VDL).
(3) When the battery voltage falls below overdischarge detection voltage (VDL) due to overcurrent, the UTC
UB211C Series turns the discharging control FET off via overcurrent detection. In this case, if the recovery of the
battery voltage is so slow that the battery voltage after the overdischarge detection delay time is still lower than the
overdischarge detection voltage, UTC UB211C Series shifts to the power-down status.

Note 1. Overdischarge detection voltage must be higher than the threshold voltage of M1 and M2, if not, the M1 may
not cut the charging current. If the threshold voltage of M1 equal to or higher than the overdischarge
detection voltage is used, discharging may be stopped before overdischarge is detected.
2. Charger voltage must be higher than the withstanding voltage between the gate and source of M1 and M2, if
not, M1 and M2 may be destroyed.
3. Resistance of R1 can’t be high, the value is about from 100Ω to 470Ω, If R1 has a high resistance, the
voltage between VDD pin and VSS pin may exceed the absolute maximum rating when a charger is
connected in reverse since the current flows from the charger to the IC. Insert a resistor of 100Ω or higher as
R1 for ESD protection
4. the capacitance of C1 must not be less than 0.022μF, if not, DO pin may oscillate when load short-circuiting
is detected. Be sure to connect a capacitor of 0.022μF or higher to C1, the typical value is about 0.1μF.
5. the resistance of R2 can not be higher than 2kΩ, if not, the charging current may not be cut when a
