completion and automatic recharge.
4.1
Upon insertion of a battery, or application of an external
supply, the MCP7386X family of devices automatically
performs a series of safety checks to qualify the
charge. The input source voltage must be above the
Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) threshold, the enable
pin must be above the logic-high level and the cell
temperature must be within the upper and lower
thresholds.
continuously monitored. Deviation beyond the limits
automatically suspends or terminates the charge cycle.
The input voltage must deviate below the UVLO stop
threshold for at least one clock period to be considered
valid.
Once the qualification parameters have been met, the
MCP7386X initiates a charge cycle. The charge status
output is pulled low throughout the charge cycle (see

the MCP7386X preconditions the battery with a trickle-
charge. The preconditioning current is set to approxi-
mately 10% of the fast charge regulation current. The

during the initial charge cycle. If the battery voltage has
not exceeded the preconditioning threshold before the
preconditioning timer has expired, a fault is indicated
and the charge cycle is terminated.

Preconditioning ends, and fast charging begins, when
the battery voltage exceeds the preconditioning thresh-

The MCP7386X monitors the charging current during
the Constant-voltage regulation mode. The charge

parameters are met.
4.5
The MCP7386X family limits the charge current based
on the die temperature. Thermal regulation optimizes
the charge cycle time while maintaining device reliabil-
ity. If thermal regulation is entered, the timer is automat-
ically slowed down to ensure that a charge cycle will
not terminate prematurely.

4.6
The MCP7386X family suspends charge if the die
temperature exceeds 155°C. Charging will resume
when the die temperature has cooled by approximately
10°C. The thermal shutdown is a secondary safety
feature in the event that there is a failure within the
thermal regulation circuitry.
