5.14 Undertemperature in Charge Protection

The BQ77307 device integrates an Undertemperature in Charge (UTC) Protection that compares the voltage of an external negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor on the TS pin to a programmable threshold VUTC, and triggers an alert or fault when the voltage at the thermistor is greater than the threshold. The thermistor is biased using an on-chip 20-kΩ pullup resistor (which is trimmed in TI factory), which is biased by the internal 1.8-V LDO (VREG18) rail only when the thermistor is being evaluated (which is the default recommended setting). Alternatively, the pullup resistor can be biased continuously by sending the 0x69 REGOUT_CONTROL() command with the [TS_ON] bit set. The detection circuitry uses this same internal 1.8-V LDO rail to generate the detection threshold, thereby implementing a ratiometric comparison.

The VUTC threshold is programmable in units of VREG18 / 252, with settings from 0 to 255 using the Protections:Temperature:Undertemperature in Charge Protection Threshold configuration register. The UTC protection is enabled using the Settings:Protection:Enabled Protections B:[UTC] configuration bit.

The UTC protection triggers an alert signal when an undertemperature in charge event is first detected, then triggers a fault after a programmable number of CHECK intervals, UTC_DLY, which can be set from 0 to 255. The delay is set by the Protections:Temperature:Undertemperature in Charge Protection Delay configuration register.

When a UTC fault is triggered, the device turns off the CHG FET if configured for autonomous FET control, based on the setting in Settings:Protection:CHG FET Protections A[UTC]. The device recovers when the thermistor voltage is detected less than or equal to the threshold set by Protections:Temperature:Undertemperature in Charge Protection Recovery (which has the same threshold range from 0 to 255 in steps of VREG18 / 252). If the Protections:Temperature:Undertemperature in Charge Protection Recovery is set to zero, autonomous recovery is disabled, and recovery must be initiated by the host sending the PROT_RECOVERY() subcommand with the [TEMPREC] bit set.
