Case 2: USB (PSEL = Low)
SLUS618 – AUGUST 2004
System Power
In this case, the system load is powered directly from the USB port through the internal switch Q3 (see Figure 5
). Note in this case Q3 regulates the total current to the 100 mA or 500 mA level, as selected on the ISET2 input.
Switch Q1 is turned off in this mode. If the system and battery load is less than the selected regulated limit, then
Q3 is fully on and VOUT is approximately (VUSB-VUSB-DO). The system’s power management is responsible for
keeping its system load below the USB current level selected (if the battery is critically low or missing), otherwise
the output drops to the battery voltage. Therefore, the system should have a low power mode for USB power
application. The DPPM feature keeps the output from dropping below its programmed threshold, due to the
battery charging current, by reducing the charging current.
Charge Control
When USB is present and selected, Q3 regulates the input current to the value selected by the ISET2 pin
(0.1/0.5A). The charge current to the battery is set by the ISET1 resistor (typically > 0.5A). Since the charge
current typically is programmed for more current than Q3 allows, the output voltage drops to the battery voltage
or DPPM voltage, which ever is higher. If the DPPM threshold is reached first, the charge current is reduced as
described below.
Dynamic Power Path Management (DPPM)
The theory of operation is the same as described above, in CASE 1, except that Q3 restricts the amount of input
current delivered to the output and battery instead of the input supply.
Note that the DPPM voltage, V(DPPM), is programmed as follows:
V(DPPM) + I(DPPM) R(DPPM) SF
(2)
where
• RDPPM is the external resistor connected between the DPPM and VSS pins
• I(DPPM) is the internal current source
• SF is the scale factor as specified in the specification table
Battery Temperature Monitoring
The bqTINY-III continuously monitors battery temperature by measuring the voltage between the TS and VSS
pins. An internal current source provides the bias for most-common 10 kΩ negative-temperature coefficient
thermistors (NTC) (see Figure 5). The device compares the voltage on the TS pin against the internal V(LTF) and
V(HTF) thresholds to determine if charging is allowed. Once a temperature outside the V(LTF) and V(HTF) thresholds
is detected the device immediately suspends the charge. The device suspends charge by turning off the
powerFET and holding the timer value (i.e. timers are NOT reset). Charge is resumed when the temperature
returns to the normal range. The allowed temperature range for 103AT type thermistor is 0°C to 45°C. However
the user may increase the range by adding two external resistors. See Figure 6.
