ACT2803
Rev 1, May-12-2016
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
HYST pin is regulated at 1V. Its input current will
determine hysteresis adjustment equally to all level.
Connect HYST to APGN via a resistor to set
hysteresis window.
current source provides a bias current to generate
TH voltage. The ACT2803 compares the voltage at
the TH pin with the internal VTHH and VTHL
thresholds to determine if charging or discharging is
allowed. When VTH<VTHL or VTH >VTHH, it will be
triggered latch off fault, there is 3 ways to wake up
ACT2803 when VTH returns to the normal range.
Beside the hysteresis window, to avoid comparison
oscillation, fixed 100mV of hysteresis is added to
each LEVEL comparator.
1. Push PB when latch off bit is not set
2. I2C to clear faults in standby
3. Plug Vin to power up
Hysteresis window is given by below equation:

Battery Impedance Compensation
To avoid the number of LEDs changes between
charge and discharge modes. Internal impedance
compensation circuit is built in. An external resistor
is used to set the impedance from 100mΩ to
800mΩ. RIMC is corresponding to battery
impedance. The LED1-4 thresholds shifted up and
down based on the product of charge/discharge
current and set impedance. RIMC value is given by
below equation.

From (7) (8) (9) and (10) calculate Ra and Rb in
charge mode, as the same method, the resistors in
discharge mode can be calculated.

In case not using compensation, float RIMC then
there is no compensation affects to trig-points.
For example, use NXRT15XH103 NTC resistor, the
temperature in charge mode is 0℃ to 45℃,we
RIMC example is given by the below table:
know RNTCC=27.219k and 4.917k at 0℃ to 45℃,
respectively. We can calculate Ra=33kΩ and
Rb=2.87kΩ based on the above formulas. As the
same method we can calculate the value when the

Battery Temperature Monitering
Cell Balance Setting
The ACT2803 monitors the battery pack
temperature by measuring TH voltage at the TH pin
as shows in Figure 4. The TH pin is connected to
the thermistor resistor net which includes a negative
temperature coefficient thermistor. An internal
ACT2803 has integrated a cell balance feature to
reduce the un-balance charge between dual
batteries. Normally cell balance is activated during
Fast Charge and Top Off modes.
