The delay time for over current detection 2 and 3 is fixed by an internal IC circuit. The delay time cannot
be changed via an external capacitor.
If one of the battery voltages becomes higher than the over charge detection voltage (VCU), the CSO
terminal goes high.
If one of the battery voltages becomes lower than the over discharge detection voltage (VDD), the DSO
terminal goes high.
If S-8233C series detect over current, the ISO terminal goes high.
In normal state each terminal output ‘Low’.

Rev.4.0_00
Description
Remark Refer to “
Battery Protection IC Connection Example”.
Normal condition
This IC monitors the voltages of the three serially-connected batteries and the discharge current to control
charging and discharging. If the voltages of all the three batteries are in the range from the over
discharge detection voltage (VDD) to the over charge detection voltage (VCU), and the current flowing
through the batteries becomes equal or lower than a specified value (the VMP terminal voltage is equal or
lower than over current detection voltage 1), the charging and discharging FETs turn on. In this condition,
charging and discharging can be carried out freely. This condition is called the normal condition. In this
condition, output voltage of CSO,ISO and DSO go ‘low’. VCC terminals are shorted by the RVCM resistor.
Over current condition
This IC is provided with the three over current detection levels (VIOV1,VIOV2 and VIOV3) and the three over
current detection delay time (tIOV1,tIOV2 and tIOV3) corresponding to each over current detection level.
If the discharging current becomes equal to or higher than a specified value (the VMP terminal voltage is
equal to or higher than the over current detection voltage) during discharging under normal condition and
it continues for the over current detection delay time (tIOV) or longer, the discharging FET turns off to stop
discharging. This condition is called an over current condition. The VMP and VCC terminals are shorted
by the RVCM resistor at this time. The charging FET turns off.
When the discharging FET is off and a load is connected, the VMP terminal voltage equals the VSS
potential. In this condition, output voltage of ISO goes ‘High’.
The over current condition returns to the normal condition when the load is released and the impedance
between the EB- and EB+ terminals (see Figure 8 for a connection example) is 100 MΩ or higher. When
the load is released, the VMP terminal, which and the VCC terminal are shorted with the RVCM resistor,
goes back to the VCC potential. The IC detects that the VMP terminal potential returns to over current
detection voltage 1 (VIOV1) or lower (or the over current detection voltage 2 (VIOV2) or lower if the COVT
terminal is fixed at the 'L' level and over current detection 1 is inhibited) and returns to the normal
condition. At that time, output voltage of ISO goes ‘Low’.
Over charge condition
If one of the battery voltages becomes higher than the over charge detection voltage (VCU) during
charging under normal condition and it continues for the over charge detection delay time (tCU) or longer,
the charging FET turns off to stop charging. This condition is called the over charge condition. The 'H'
level signal is output to the conditioning terminal corresponding to the battery which exceeds the over
charge detection voltage until the battery becomes equal to lower than the over charge release voltage
(VCD). In this condition, output voltage of CSO is ‘High’. The VMP and VCC terminals are shorted by the
RVCM resistor under the over charge condition.
The over charge condition is released in two cases. The output voltage of CSO terminal changes to ‘L’
when the over charge condition is released.
1) The battery voltage which exceeded the over charge detection voltage (VCU) falls below the over
charge release voltage (VCD), the charging FET turns on and the normal condition returns.
2) If the battery voltage which exceeded the over charge detection voltage (VCU) is equal or higher than
the over charge release voltage (VCD), but the charger is removed, a load is placed, and discharging
starts, the charging FET turns on and the normal condition returns.
The release mechanism is as follows: the discharge current flows through an internal parasitic diode of
the charging FET immediately after a load is installed and discharging starts, and the VMP terminal
voltage decreases by about 0.6 V from the VCC terminal voltage momentarily. The IC detects this
voltage (over current detection voltage 1 or higher), releases the over charge condition and returns to the
normal condition.

S-8233C Series
Over discharge condition
If any one of the battery voltages falls below the over discharge detection voltage (VDD) during discharging
under normal condition and it continues for the over discharge detection delay time (tDD) or longer, the
discharging FET turns off and discharging stops. This condition is called the over discharge condition. In
this condition, output voltage of DSO goes ‘High’. When the discharging FET turns off, the VMP terminal
voltage becomes equal to the VSS voltage and the IC's current consumption falls below the power-down
current consumption (IPDN). This condition is called the power-down condition. The VMP and VSS
terminals are shorted by the RVSM resistor under the over discharge and power-down conditions.
The power-down condition is canceled when the charger is connected and the voltage between VMP and
VSS is 3.0 V or higher (over current detection voltage 3). When all the battery voltages becomes equal to
or higher than the over discharge release voltage (VDU) in this condition, the over discharge condition
changes to the normal condition. In this condition, output voltage of DSO goes ‘Low’.
Delay circuits
The over charge detection delay time (tCU1 to tCU3), over discharge detection delay time (tDD1 to tDD3), and
over current detection delay time 1 (tIOV1) are changed with external capacitors (C4 to C6).
The delay times are calculated by the following equations:
Min. Typ. Max.
tCU[s] =Delay factor ( 1.07, 2.13, 3.19)×C4 [uF]
tDD[s] =Delay factor ( 0.20, 0.40, 0.60)×C5 [uF]
tIOV1[s]=Delay factor ( 0.10, 0.20, 0.30)×C6 [uF]
Caution The delay time for over current detection 2 and 3 is fixed by an internal IC circuit. The
delay time cannot be changed via an external capacitor.
CTL terminal
If the CTL terminal is floated under normal condition, it is pulled up to the VCC potential in the IC, and both
the charging and discharging FETs turn off to inhibit charging and discharging. Both charging and
discharging are also inhibited by applying the VCC terminal to the CTL terminal externally. At this time,
the VMP and VCC terminals are shorted by the RVCM resistor.
When the CTL terminal becomes equal to VSS potential, charging and discharging are enabled and go
back to their appropriate conditions for the battery voltages.
Caution Please note unexpected behavior might occur when electrical potential difference
between the CTL pin ('L' level) and VSS is generated through the external filter
(RVSS and CVSS) as a result of input voltage fluctuations.
0 V battery charging function
This function is used to recharge the three serially-connected batteries after they self-discharge to 0 V.
When the 0 V charging start voltage (V0CHAR) or higher is applied to between VMP and VSS by connecting
the charger, the charging FET gate is fixed to VSS potential.
When the voltage between the gate sources of the charging FET becomes equal to or higher than the
turn-on voltage by the charger voltage, the charging FET turns on to start charging. At this time, the
discharging FET turns off and the charging current flows through the internal parasitic diode in the
discharging FET. If all the battery voltages become equal to or higher than the over discharge release
voltage (VDU), the normal condition returns.
CAUTION In the products without 0 V battery charging function, the resistance between VCC and
VMP and between VSS and VMP are lower than the products with 0 V battery charging
function. It causes to that over charge detection voltage increases by the drop voltage
of R5 (see Figure 8 for a connection example) with sink current at VMP.
The COP output is undefined below 2.0 V on VCC-VSS voltage in the products without
0 V battery charging function.

[Description of Figure 8]
The over charge detection delay time (tCU1 to tCU3), over discharge detection delay time (tDD1 to tDD3), and
over current detection delay time (tIOV1) are changed with external capacitors (C4 to C6). See the electrical
characteristics.
R6 is a pull-up resistor that turns FET-B off when the COP terminal is opened. Connect a 100 kΩ to
1 MΩ resistor.
R5 is used to protect the IC if the charger is connected in reverse. Connect a 10 kΩ to 50 kΩ resistor.
If capacitor C6 is absent, rush current occurs when a capacitive load is connected and the IC enters the
over current mode. C6 must be connected to prevent it.
If capacitor C5 is not connected, the IC may enter the over discharge condition due to variations of battery
voltage when the over current occurs. In this case, a charger must be connected to return to the normal
condition. To prevent this, connect an at least 0.01µF capacitor to C5.
If a leak current flows between the delay capacitor connection terminal (CCT, CDT, or COVT) and VSS, the
delay time increases and an error occurs. The leak current must be 100 nA or less.
Over discharge detection can be disabled by using FET-C. The FET-C off leak must be 0.1 µA or less. If
over discharge is inhibited by using this FET, the current consumption does not fall below 0.1 µA even
when the battery voltage drops and the IC enters the over discharge detection mode.
R1, R2, and R3 must be 1 kΩ or less.
R7 is the protection of the CTL when the CTL terminal voltage higher than VCC voltage. Connect a 300 Ω to
5 kΩ resister. If the CTL terminal voltage never greater than the VCC voltage (ex. R7 connect to VSS),
without R7 resister is allowed.

Caution 1. The above constants may be changed without notice.
2. If any electrostatic discharge of 2000 V or higher is not applied to the S-8233C series
with a human body model, R1, R2, R3, C1, C2, and C3 are unnecessary.
3. It has not been confirmed whether the operation is normal or not in circuits other than
the above example of connection. In addition, the example of connection shown above
and the constant do not guarantee proper operation. Perform through evaluation using
the actual application to set the constant.
Precautions
If a charger is connected in the over discharge condition and one of the battery voltages becomes
equal to or higher than the over charge release voltage (VCU) before the battery voltage which is
below the over discharge detection voltage (VDD) becomes equal to or higher than the over discharge
release voltage (VDU), the over discharge and over charge conditions are entered and the charging
and discharging FETs turn off. Both charging and discharging are disabled. If the battery voltage
which was higher than the over charge detection voltage (VCU) falls to the over charge release voltage
(VCD) due to internal discharging, the charging FET turns on.
If the charger is detached in the over charge and over discharge condition, the over charge condition
is released, but the over discharge condition remains. If the charger is connected again, the battery
condition is monitored after that. The charging FET turns off after the over charge detection delay
time, the over charge and over discharge conditions are entered.
If any one of the battery voltages is equal to or lower than the over discharge release voltage (VDU)
when they are connected for the first time, the normal condition may not be entered. If the VMP
terminal voltage is made equal to or higher than the VCC voltage (if a charger is connected), the
normal condition is entered.
If the CTL terminal floats in power-down mode, it is not pulled up in the IC, charging and discharging
may not be inhibited. However, the over discharge condition becomes effective. If the charger is
connected, the CTL terminal is pulled up, and charging and discharging are inhibited immediately.
Do not apply an electrostatic discharge to this IC that exceeds the performance ratings of the built-in
electrostatic protection circuit.
SII claims no responsibility for any disputes arising out of or in connection with any infringement by
products including this IC of patents owned by a third party.
