General Descriptions:

CN3324 is a PFM mode step-up 4-cell Li-ion battery charging controller IC with minimum operating voltage down to 4.5V. CN3324 adopts trickle, constant current (CC) and quasi-constant voltage(Quasi-CV^TM) mode to charge battery.

On power up, CN3324 enters charging mode, the external N-channel MOSFET is turned on first, inductor current rises. When inductor current reaches upper limit, the N-channel MOSFET is turned off, the energy stored in inductor is transferred to battery. When the inductor current is discharged to its lower limit, the N-channel MOSFET is turned on again, and so forth. When BAT pin voltage reaches 16.8V(Typ.) for the first time, CN3324 enters quasi-CV mode, in which the charge current is reduced. The charge process will not be terminated until BAT voltage reaches 16.8V for the second time. In termination mode, the N-channel MOSFET is turned off. If BAT pin voltage falls below recharge threshold, CN3324 enters charge mode again. CN3324’s switching frequency can be up to 1MHz, which makes a small-profile inductor usable.

The other features include self-adaptive function to input supply, JEITA-compliant battery temperature monitoring, chip over temperature protection and status indication, etc.

CN3324 is available in thermally-enhanced 8-pin SOP package.
