Pin Configuration

Pin NamePin NumberPin Description
BUS1Charger power input pin. Connect a 1μF ceramic capacitor from BUS to PGND as close as possible to the IC.
DP2USB identification port. USB detection strategy is compliant with BC1.2. SDP, CDP, DCP and adapter port can be identified according to the detection results thru DP/DM pins.
DM3USB identification port. USB detection strategy is compliant with BC1.2. SDP, CDP, DCP and adapter port can be identified according to the detection results thru DP/DM pins.
STAT4Open drain charge status indication pin. Pull up to a logic rail via 10kΩ resistor. STAT pin low indicates charge in progress; high indicates charge done or charge disabled. When any charge fault occurs, STAT pin blinks at 1Hz. The stat pin function can be disabled by setting STAT_DIS bit.
SCL5I 2 C Interface clock pin. Pull up to a logic rail via 10kΩ resistor.
SDA6I 2 C Interface data pin. Pull up to a logic rail via 10kΩ resistor.
INT7Open-drain Interrupt Output. Pull up to a logic rail via 10kΩ resistor. The INT pin generates active low, 256us pulse to notify the host about charge status and charge fault.
OTG8Boost mode active high enable pin. Boost mode is enabled when REG03[5]=1 and OTG pin is high.
/CE9Charge mode active low enable pin. Battery charging is enabled when REG03[4]=1 and /CE pin =Low. /CE pin must be pulled high or low.
ILIM10ILIM pin sets the maximum input current limit. A resistor is connected from ILIM pin to ground to set the maximum limit as I INMAX = K ILIM /R ILIM . The actual input current limit is the lower one set by ILIM and by I 2 C REG00[5:0]. The ILIM pin function can be disabled by setting EN_ILIM bit to 0

thermal protection. Charge or discharge suspends when NTC pin is out of range. Recommend 103AT-2 thermistor.
/QON12BATFET enables control in shipping mode and BATFET reset function. When BATFET is in shipping mode, logic high to low transition on this pin with minimum of T QON_1 low level turns on BATFET to exit shipping mode. This pin is internally pulled up to maintain default high logic. When BUS is not plugged-in, a logic low of T QON_RST (typical 10s) resets system power by turning BATFET off for T BATFET_RST (typical 3s) and then re- enable BATFET.
BAT13,14Battery voltage sense pin. Used as battery constant voltage control and battery voltage protections. Connect at least 10μF ceramic capacitor to the BAT pin.
SYS15,16System connection point. The internal BATFET is connected between BAT and SYS. When the battery falls below the minimum system voltages, switch-mode converter will keep SYS above the minimum system voltage.
PGND17,18Power ground connection. On PCB layout, connect this pin directly to ground connection of input and output capacitors.
LX19,20Switching node pin. Connect this pin to external inductor.
BST21HSFET driver positive supply. Connect a 47nF bootstrap capacitor between LX and BST.
REGN22LSFET driver positive supply. Connect a 4.7μF ceramic capacitor between REGN and analog GND. The capacitor should be placed closely to the IC. REGN also serves as bias rail of NTC pin.
PMID23Connect this pin to the drain of the reverse blocking MOSFET and the drain of HSFET. Connect a 6.8μ F capacitor between PMID and PGND. The capacitor should be placed closely to the IC.
DSEL24Open-drain DP/DM multiplexer selection control. Pull up to a logic rail via 10kΩ resistor. During input source type detection, the pin outputs low to indicate DP/DM detection is in progress. When detection is done, the pin keeps low if HVDCP is detected. The pin returns to float and pulls high by resistor when other input source type is detected.
Exposed pad-Exposed pad beneath the IC for heat dissipation. Always solder exposed pad to the board, and have vias on the power pad plane star-connecting to PGND and ground plane for high-current power converter.

Thermal Information

The SY6970 monitors the internal junction temperature TJ to avoid overheat the chip and limits the IC surface temperature. When the internal junction temperature exceeds the preset limit (TREG bits), the device will lower down the charge current. The wide thermal regulation range from 60° C to 120° C allows the user to optimize the system thermal performance.

During thermal regulation, the actual charging current is usually below the programmed battery charging current. Therefore, termination is disabled, the safety timer runs at half the clock rate, and the status register THERM_STAT goes high.

Additionally, the device has thermal shutdown to turn off the converter and BATFET. The fault register CHRG_FAULT is 10 and an INT is asserted to the host. The BATFET and converter are enabled to recover when the IC temperature is below TTSD_HYS.
