V2288 – Circuit Description
6) When high CHGR_SW will limit the CLA or EIHF current output to 400mA, when
low MANTEST_AD the current output is limited to 900mA. The AC charger output
a current of approximately 350mA.
7) When the batteries are discharged and we turn the phone on, for the first second, full
rate charge is delivered, (this is due to the LX signal for V_BOOST being unstable
and therefore creating a power surge). This enables the phone to consume most of the
current from the charger but at the same time trickle charge the batteries up to their
usable voltage level. This is achieved by setting ENABLE 'high': from Whitecap Pin
L7 to COVIC Pin 5 and TRLK_SET 'low' (Whitecap Pin K4 to COVIC Pin 2). The
result of this is that the signal DRV, COVIC Pin 1 opens or closes the ‘gate’ of Q960
(very similar to the CHARGC function of other GCAP II products). The charge is
then fed through CR960 and out to dual-FET Q691 to charge the battery.
8) The circuit function describing when the batteries are in the usable range and normal
full rate charging is enabled is as above, however the extra current now charges the
batteries and the support voltage for the phone is taken directly from the batteries.
9) For High Rate trickle charging, again the operation is as above but TRKL_SET is set
‘high’ and ENABLE set ‘low’.
10)For Low rate Trickle charging TRKL_SET is set ‘low’ and ENABLE is set ‘low’
11)I Sense COVIC Pin 7 is used as a control for the charging DRV signal
12)The Over Voltage protection part of the circuit works in the following way:
13)The normal operating range of the batteries is between 3V through to 4.5V and an
over voltage condition would be classed at >5.1V. If a transient above this occurred
then this would be sensed by the current Sense resistor R960, and fed back into the
COVIC on Pin 7. This would drive ENABLE ‘low’, enabling Trickle charge mode
and reducing the current to the batteries to approximately 40mA.
14)If the transient is >6.1V then all charging stops. The over voltage comparator within
the COVIC has hysterisis built in and the capacitors will begin to discharge until the
voltage level is <5.1V at this point I_SENSE is reviewed again if still > 5.1V the unit
begins to trickle charge.
15)Instrumental in both these operations being carried out successfully is a 10µF
capacitor C970 (Situated near V_BOOST circuitry). As the transient occurs this
capacitor charges up, and reduces the voltage rise to the COVIC circuit, therefore
giving the COVIC more time to operate.
Logic: Deep Sleep Mode
1) Deep sleep mode is there to provide a facility to save battery life by intermittently
shutting off part of the PCB. This is achieved in the following way. The signal
STBY_DL is generated from Whitecap Pin F1, through a standby delay circuit
CR912 and U906 and onto Q834 and Q912. This has the effect respectively of:
2) Grounding VREF which makes MAGIC inoperable
3) Grounding V2 This switches off MAGIC, Front END IC and inhibits the Transmit
path through RF_V2
4) The shutdown is only for a fraction of a second and during that time the GCAP Clock
supports the logic side of the unit. The GCAP clock is generated by Y900, which
