SENSE (Pin 1): Maximum Overcurrent Sense Input. A
sense resistor (R
the SENSE pin. When the voltage drop across R
exceeds 100mV, the pass transistor immediately turns off
and turns back on after a 400ms time-out period (C
= 0.1 F). The on-off cycle will continue, as long as the
overcurrent condition persists or until the timer runs out.
If overcurrent protection is not needed, short SENSE to

a 4.7 resistor. An RC network from the V

pass transistor turns on, V

CHRG (Pin 3): Open-Drain Charge Status Output. When a
depleted battery is being charged, the CHRG pin is pulled
to ground by an N-MOSFET capable of driving an LED.
Once the duty cycle at the GATE pin drops below 10%, the
N-MOSFET turns off and a weak 40 A current source to
ground turns on to indicate a near end-of-charge (C/10)
condition. When a time-out occurs or the input supply is
removed, the CHRG pin goes high impedance.
GND (Pin 4): Electrical Ground Connection and provides
a thermal path from the IC to the PC board copper. Use
large copper pads and traces for maximum heat transfer.
TIMER (Pin 5): Timer Set Pin. The timer period is set by a
capacitor (C

charge cycle is suspended and the internal timer is frozen.
The CHRG pin output status is not affected in this hold
state.
When this pin is pulled below 50mV, the IC goes into the
shutdown mode. The charging stops (the GATE pin is
pulled to ground) the timer is reset and the CHRG pin goes
into a high impedance state.
GATE (Pin 7): Gate Drive Output Pin for Internal and
External Pass Transistors. An external N-MOSFET transis-
tor can be connected in parallel with the internal transistor
to reduce the on-resistance for higher charge current. In
this case, an external blocking diode is required to prevent
damage to the battery if V
current source pulls this pin up to the charge pump
potential when turned on and a 40 A current source pulls
it down to ground to turn it off. If an overcurrent condition
is detected, the GATE pin is immediately pulled to ground.
A series RC network from the GATE to the V
required to control the slew rate at the V
switch is turned on or off. The slew rate control prevents
excessive current from the capacitor located in the wall
adapter from flowing into the battery when the pass
transistor is turned on. The voltage at this pin is internally
clamped to 12V above the BAT pin.
BAT (Pin 8): Battery Sense Input Pin. This pin is clamped
to 4.7V if the battery is disconnected while charging. An
internal resistor divider presets the final float voltage to
4.2V.
If the voltage at the BAT pin drops 150mV below final float
voltage after the charge cycle has ended, the timer resets
and a new charge cycle begins.
