Test Circuits
(1) Test condition 1 Test circuit 1
Set V1, V2, and V3 to 3.5 V under normal status. Increase V1 from 3.5 V gradually. The V1 voltage
when COP = 'H' is overcharge detection voltage 1 (VCU1). Decrease V1 gradually. The V1 voltage when
COP = 'L' is overcharge release voltage 1 (VCD1). Further decrease V1. The V1 voltage when DOP = 'H'
is overdischarge voltage 1 (VDD1). Increase V1 gradually. The V1 voltage when DOP = 'L' is
overdischarge release voltage 1 (VDU1).
Remark The voltage change rate is 150 V/s or less.
(2) Test condition 2 Test circuit 1
Set V1, V2, and V3 to 3.5 V under normal status. Increase V2 from 3.5 V gradually. The V2 voltage
when COP = 'H' is overcharge detection voltage 2 (VCU2). Decrease V2 gradually. The V2 voltage when
COP = 'L' is overcharge release voltage 2 (VCD2). Further decrease V2. The V2 voltage when DOP = 'H'
is overdischarge voltage 2 (VDD2). Increase V2 gradually. The V2 voltage when DOP = 'L' is
overdischarge release voltage 2 (VDU2).
Remark The voltage change rate is 150 V/s or less.
(3) Test condition 3 Test circuit 1
Set V1, V2, and V3 to 3.5 V under normal status. Increase V3 from 3.5 V gradually. The V3 voltage
when COP = 'H' is overcharge detection voltage 3 (VCU3). Decrease V3 gradually. The V3 voltage when
COP = 'L' is overcharge release voltage 3 (VCD3). Further decrease V3. The V3 voltage when DOP = 'H'
is overdischarge voltage 3 (VDD3). Increase V3 gradually. The V3 voltage when DOP = 'L' is
overdischarge release voltage 3 (VDU3).

(4) Test condition 4 Test circuit 2
Set V1, V2, V3 to 3.5 V and V4 to 0 V under normal status. Increase V4 from 0 V gradually. The V4
voltage when DOP = 'H' and COP = 'H', is overcurrent detection voltage 1 (VIOV1).
Set V1, V2, and V3 to 3.5 V and V4 to 0 V under normal status. Fix the COVT pin at VSS, increase V4
from 0 V gradually. The V4 voltage when DOP = 'H' and COP = 'H' is overcurrent detection voltage 2
(VIOV2).
Set V1, V2, and V3 to 3.5 V and V4 to 0 V under normal status. Fix the COVT pin at VSS, increase V4
gradually from 0 V at 400 μs to 2 ms. The V4 voltage when DOP = 'H' and COP = 'H' is overcurrent
detection voltage 3 (VIOV3).
(5) Test condition 5 Test circuit 3
Set S1 to ON, V1, V2, and V3 to 3.5 V, and V4 to 0 V under normal status and measure current
consumption. I1 is the normal status current consumption (IOPE), I2, the cell 2 current consumption
(ICELL2), and I3, the cell 3 current consumption (ICELL3).
Set S1 to ON, V1, V2, and V3 to 1.5 V, and V4 to 4.5 V under overdischarge status. Current
consumption I1 is power-down current consumption (IPDN).
(6) Test condition 6 Test circuit 3
Set S1 to ON, V1, V2, and V3 to 3.5 V, and V4 to 10.5 V under normal status. V4/I4 is the internal
resistance between VCC and VMP (RVCM).
Set S1 to ON, V1, V2, and V3 to 1.5 V, and V4 to 4.1 V under overdischarge status. (4.5-V4)/I4 is the
internal resistance between VSS and VMP (RVSM).
