DEVICE OVERVIEW

The MCP73831/2 are highly advanced linear charge

management controllers. Figure 4-1 depicts the

operational flow algorithm from charge initiation to

completion and automatic recharge.

Flowchart.

4.1

Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)

An internal UVLO circuit monitors the input voltage and

keeps the charger in Shutdown mode until the input

supply rises above the UVLO threshold. The UVLO

circuitry has a built in hysteresis of 100 mV.

In the event a battery is present when the input power

is applied, the input supply must rise to a level 150 mV

above the battery voltage before the MCP73831/2

become operational.

The UVLO circuit places the device in Shutdown mode

if the input supply falls to within +50 mV of the battery

voltage. Again, the input supply must rise to a level

150 mV above the battery voltage before the

MCP73831/2 become operational.

The UVLO circuit is always active. Whenever the input

supply is below the UVLO threshold or within +50 mV

of the voltage at the VBAT pin, the MCP73831/2 are

placed in Shutdown mode.

During any UVLO condition, the battery reverse

discharge current is less than 2 µA.

4.2

Battery Detection

A 6 µA (typical) current is sourced by the VBAT pin to

determine if a battery is present or not. If the voltage at

VBAT rises to VREG + 100 mV (typical), the device

assumes that a battery is not present. If the voltage

stays below VREG + 100 mV (typical), the device

assumes that a battery is detected. In order to correctly

detect a battery insertion, the impedance seen by the

VBAT pin before the battery is connected must be

greater than 2 MΩ.

4.3

Charge Qualification

For a charge cycle to begin, all UVLO conditions must

be met and a battery or output load must be present. A

charge current programming resistor must be

connected from PROG to VSS. If the PROG pin is open

or floating, the MCP73831/2 are disabled and the

battery reverse discharge current is less than 2 µA. In

this manner, the PROG pin acts as a charge enable

and can be used as a manual shutdown.

4.4

Preconditioning

If the voltage at the VBAT pin is less than the

preconditioning threshold, the MCP73831/2 enter a

preconditioning

Trickle

Charge

mode.

The

preconditioning threshold is factory set. Refer to

Section 1.0

“Electrical

Characteristics”

for

preconditioning threshold options and the Product

Identification System for standard options.

In this mode, the MCP73831/2 supply a percentage of

the charge current (established with the value of the

resistor connected to the PROG pin) to the battery. The

percentage or ratio of the current is factory set. Refer to

Section 1.0

“Electrical

Characteristics”

for

preconditioning current options and the Product Iden-

tification System for standard options.

When the voltage at the VBAT pin rises above the

preconditioning threshold, the MCP73831/2 enter the

Constant-Current or Fast Charge mode.
