What kind of protection works for lithium batteries?

The working principle of lithium battery protection: 1. In the normal state, the CO and DO pins of N1 in the circuit output high voltage under the normal state, and both MOSFETs are in the on state, and the battery can be charged and discharged freely due to the conduction of the MOSFET. The impedance is very small, usually less than 30 milliohms, so its on-resistance has little effect on the performance of the circuit. In this state, the current consumption of the protection circuit is μA, usually less than 7 μA. 2. The charging method required for overcharge protection lithium battery is constant current/constant voltage. In the initial stage of charging, it is constant current charging. With the charging process, the voltage will rise to 4.2V (depending on the positive electrode material, some batteries require constant voltage The value is 4.1V), and switch to constant voltage charging until the current becomes smaller and smaller. When the battery is being charged, if the charger circuit loses control, the battery voltage will continue to be charged with constant current after the battery voltage exceeds 4.2V. At this time, the battery voltage will continue to rise. When the battery voltage is charged to more than 4.3V, the battery’s chemistry Side reactions will intensify, causing battery damage or safety issues. In a battery with a protection circuit, when the control IC detects that the battery voltage reaches 4.28V (this value is determined by the control IC, different ICs have different values), the CO pin will change from high voltage to zero voltage, making V2 Turn on to off, thereby cutting off the charging circuit, so that the charger can no longer charge the battery, playing the role of overcharge protection. At this time, due to the existence of the body diode VD2 of V2, the battery can discharge the external load through the diode. There is a delay time between when the control IC detects that the battery voltage exceeds 4.28V and when the V2 signal is turned off. The length of the delay time is determined by C3 and is usually set to about 1 second to prevent errors caused by interference. judgment. 3. Over-discharge protection When the battery is discharged to an external load, its voltage will gradually decrease with the discharge process. When the battery voltage drops to 2.5V, its capacity has been completely discharged. At this time, if the battery continues to discharge the load , Will cause permanent damage to the battery. During the battery discharge process, when the control IC detects that the battery voltage is lower than 2.3V (this value is determined by the control IC, different ICs have different values), its DO pin will change from a high voltage to a zero voltage, so that V1 is switched from conduction. Turning on is turned off, which cuts off the discharge circuit, so that the battery can no longer discharge the load, playing the role of over-discharge protection. At this time, due to the existence of the body diode VD1 of V1, the charger can charge the battery through this diode. Because the battery voltage can't be lowered in the over-discharge protection state, the current consumption of the protection circuit is required to be extremely small. At this time, the control IC will enter a low power consumption state, and the power consumption of the entire protection circuit will be less than 0.1μA. There is also a delay time between when the control IC detects that the battery voltage is lower than 2.3V and when the V1 signal is turned off. The length of the delay time is determined by C3 and is usually set to about 100 milliseconds to prevent errors caused by interference. judgment.
