Test Circuits
In this chapter test methods are explained for the case of S-8243B series, which is designed for 4-serial cell pack. For the
case of S-8243A series, which is designed for 3-serial cell, voltage source V2 should be shorted, V3 should be read as V2,
and V4 as V3.
1. Current consumption (Test circuit 1)
Current consumption at not monitoring V
BATOUT
, I
OPE
, is a current measured at the VSS pin when V1 = V2 = V3 = V4 =
3.5 V and V
MP
= V
DD
. Current consumption at power down, I
PDN
, is a current measured at the VSS pin when V1 = V2 =
V3 = V4 = 1.5 V and V
MP
= V
SS
.
2. Voltage regulator (Test circuit 2)
Output voltage of the regulator V
OUT
is a voltage measured at the VREG pin when V
DD
= V
MP
= 14 V and I
OUT
= 3 mA.
Line regulation of the voltage regulator ΔV
OUT1
is defined by the equation ΔV
OUT1
= V
OUT2
−V
OUT1
where V
OUT1
is the
output voltage when V
DD
= V
MP
= 6 V and I
OUT
= 3 mA, and V
OUT2
is the output voltage when V
DD
= V
MP
= 18 V and I
OUT
= 3 mA.
Load regulation of the regulator is defined by the equation ΔV
OUT2
= V
OUT3
−V
OUT
where V
OUT3
is the output voltage when
V
DD
= V
MP
= 14 V and I
OUT
= 5 μA.
3. Battery monitor amp and pin current for VC1 to VC3 (Test circuit 3)
Voltage gain of the battery monitor amp for each cell is defined by the input offset voltage and the measurement result
provided from the VBATOUT pin for the combination of the CTL3 pin and CTL4 pin expressed by the following table at
the condition where V1 = V2 = V3 = V4 = 3.5 V. Pin current for VC1 to VC3, I
VCn
and I
VCnN
are at the same time
measured.
