MITSUMI Protection of Lithium Ion Batteries (two cells in series) MM1292 Protection of Lithium Ion Batteries (two cells in series) Monolithic IC MM1292 Outline This IC is for protecting a lithium ion battery from overcharging, excess discharging, and overcurrent. If abnormalities occur during charging and excess voltage is applied, it has a function that turns off the external FET switch when voltage is applied to each battery beyond a specified time (overcharging detection). It also has a function that turns off the external FET switch when the voltage for each battery falls below a set voltage, to prevent excess discharge when discharging the battery (discharging detection). At that time, the IC is switched to low current consumption mode. Also, when there is a large current flow due to shorting or other reasons, there is a function for turning off the external FET switch (overcurrent detection). These functions comprise a protection circuit, with few external parts, for lithium ion batteries. 2-Cell Protection ICs Model name MM1302A MM1292C MM1292D MM1302E MM1302F MM1302G MM1292H MM1292J MM1292K MM1292L Overcharge protection Detection voltage Hysteresis 4.25±0.05V 10mV 4.25±0.05V 200mV 4.35±0.05V 200mV 4.10±0.05V 10mV 4.35±0.05V 10mV 4.215±35V 10mV 4.30±0.05V 220mV 4.25±0.05V 220mV 4.25±0.05V 220mV 4.25±0.05V 220mV Overdischarge protection Detection voltage Hysteresis 2.3V±0.1V 700mV 2.4V±0.1V 600mV 2.4V±0.1V 600mV 2.4V±0.1V 600mV None 2.3V±0.1V 700mV 2.05V±0.1V 950mV 2.4V±0.1V 600mV 2.4V±0.1V 600mV 2.2V±0.1V 800mV Overcurrent Detection voltage 220±20mV 150±15mV 150±15mV 150±15mV None 220±20mV 170±15mV 150±15mV 150±15mV 100±10mV Features 1.

Description of Operation [Outline] This IC is used for protecting lithium ion batteries (two cell series connection type). Overcharge detection, excess discharge detection, and overcurrent detection are built into each circuit. It controls the FET for discharge control and charge control (external N-MOS FET). There are four major operating modes. 1. Overcharge mode When the voltage between Vh-VI and VI-GND exceeds the overcharge voltage (VALM). 2. Normal mode When the voltage between Vh-VI and VI-GND exceeds the excess discharge voltage (VS) and is less than the over charge voltage (VALM). 3. Excess discharge mode When the voltage between Vh-VI and VI-GND is less than the excess discharge voltage (VS). 4. Overcurrent mode When the voltage between CS-GND is less than the overcurrent voltage (VCS). MITSUMI [Operation] 1. Excess discharge detection circuit Protection of Lithium Ion Batteries (two cells in series) MM1292 The H cell excess discharge detection circuit monitors the voltage between VH-VL, while the L cell excess discharge detection circuit monitors the voltage between VL-GND. When the voltage between VH-VL and VLGND exceeds VS, the operating state is maintained with bias current supplied from the bias circuit to the delay circuit, the output control circuit, the overcurrent detection circuit, and the overcharge detection circuit. When the battery current for either the H or L cell falls below VS, the current from the excess discharge detection circuit to the bias circuit is switched off. Also, the capacitor connected to the delay circuit's comparator (COD) input pin is charged using constant current. When this falls below the COD's reference input potential, the bias current to output control and current to the bias circuit are switched off. The excess discharge delay time (tOD) is set by the delay circuit and cannot be modified externally. When the bias circuit is in waiting mode, the hysteresis loop to the excess discharge detection circuit is switched off, and the detection voltage of the excess discharge detection circuit becomes discharge resumption voltage (VDCH). When the battery is being charged and the voltage between CS-GND during excess discharge mode falls below VST, however, start-up current is supplied to the bias circuit, and the hysteresis loop of the excess discharge detection circuit is connected. Therefore, the excess discharge detection circuit detection voltage becomes VS. Also, the overcharging detection circuit goes into waiting mode, so overcharging detection does not occur in overcharging mode. When the cell voltage of either the H or L cell exceeds VALM (one is excess discharging and the other is overcharging), the bias current is maintained in the overcharging detection circuit. Therefore, the overcharging is maintained until the current falls below VALM. 2. Overcharging Detection Circuit The timing (clock) for the waiting interval and operating interval is created by the timing generation circuit. In normal mode, the only blocks operating during the waiting interval are the input stages for the timing generation circuit and the data intake section. Other blocks operate only during the operation interval. The operation interval and the waiting interval are set at a ratio of 1:10, reducing power consumption. The voltage detection resistance of the overcharge detection circuit is switched on and off by the detection section's SW circuit. Therefore, current does not flow to detection resistors during waiting time, resulting in low current consumption during excess discharge mode. (Operating sequence) Bias current is supplied to the timing generation circuit and data intake section by the bias circuit of the excess discharge detection section during normal mode. The operation interval and the waiting interval are created by the timing generation circuit. During the operation interval, bias current is supplied to the excess charging detection circuit, and cell voltages of both the H and L cells are monitored. MITSUMI Protection of Lithium Ion Batteries (two cells in series) MM1292 When the cell voltage of either the H or L cell exceeds VALM, an overcharge detection signal is output to the data intake section, and a reset signal is prohibited from going to the data processing section. When more than two consecutive clocks of the excess charging detection signal are input to the data intake section, a determination is made that the overcharging detection signal has been properly input, and it is output to the next stage. This prevents noise and mistaken determinations of overcharging caused by excess cell voltage fluctuation. When the date intake section outputs the overcharging detection signal, the data charge section goes into operation. When more than two clocks of overcharging signals are input, this activates the latch on the overcharging signal. When the overcharging signal latch in the date latch section is activated, the next non-induction time circuit goes into operation. When this operates, the TD pin is charged by constant current (ITC). The TD pin potential and the threshold value (VTC) are compared by the non-induction time circuit comparator. When TD pin voltage exceeds VTC, the OC pin output stage becomes operable and OC pin output PNP-TR (open collector) is switched on. Also, bias current is supplied to the timing generation circuit and the operation of the overcharging detection circuit is maintained. When discharge occurs during overcharge mode (GND < DS pin), the discharge detection circuit charges the TD pin and non-induction time is reset. When cell voltage falls below VALM and the overcharging detection circuit signal is off, the reset prohibition is lifted. The reset signal is sent to the data intake and data latch sections and the non-induction time circuit, and normal mode is reinstated. A diode is built in between the OC pin and GND. When OC pin potential falls below GND terminal VF, current flows from the OC pin. Therefore, when battery pack voltage
