5.7 Overcurrent in Charge Protection

The BQ77307 integrates Overcurrent in Charge Protection (OCC) using a comparator that monitors the differential voltage across the SRP - SRN pins and triggers an OCC alert or fault when the voltage exceeds a programmable threshold VOCC. The VOCC threshold is programmable from 3 mV to 123 mV in 2-mV steps using the Protections:Current:Overcurrent in Charge Protection Threshold configuration register (threshold = 2 mV × register value - 1 mV). The OCC protection is enabled using the Settings:Protection:Enabled Protections A:[OCC] configuration bit.

The OCC circuitry triggers an alert signal when an overcurrent in charge event is first detected, then triggers a fault if it persists for a programmable detection delay, OCC_DLY, which can be set as shown below.

Setting Nominal Delay (ms)
0 Fastest (approximately 0.46 ms)
1 to 64 1.22 ms to 20.435 ms in steps of 0.305 ms
65 to 128 22.875 ms to 176.595 ms in steps of 2.44 ms
129 to 192 181.475 ms to 488.915 ms in steps of 4.88 ms
193 to 255 498.675 ms to 1103.795 ms in steps of 9.77 ms

The delay is set by the Protections:Current:Overcurrent in Charge Protection Delay configuration register.

When an OCC fault is triggered, the device turns off the CHG FET if configured for autonomous FET control when Settings:Protection:CHG FET Protections A[OCC] is set. The device recovers after a programmable delay given by Protections:Current:Recovery Time , which can be set from 1 to 255 seconds in 1-second steps. A recovery time setting of 0 disables autonomous recovery, in which case recovery only occurs when the PROT_RECOVERY() subcommand is sent from the host with the [OCCREC] bit set. Continual retrying of time-based recovery can be avoided by using the Current Protection Latch feature.

Status Condition Action
Normal VSRP–VSRN ≤ setting selected by Protections:Current:Overcurrent in Charge Protection Threshold Safety Alert A()[OCC] = 0.
Clear current latch counter if no current protection fault occurs for 5 seconds.
Alert VSRP–VSRN > setting selected by Protections:Current:Overcurrent in Charge Protection Threshold Safety Alert A()[OCC] = 1
Trip VSRP–VSRN > setting selected by Protections:Current:Overcurrent in Charge Protection Threshold for Protections:Current:Overcurrent in Charge Protection Delay duration. Safety Alert A()[OCC] = 0
Safety Status A()[OCC] = 1
Increment current latch counter.
Recovery Safety Status A()[OCC] = 1 and
VSRP–VSRN ≤ setting selected by Protections:Current:Overcurrent in Charge Protection Threshold for Protections:Current:Recovery Time duration.		 Safety Status A()[OCC] = 0
CHG FET can be re-enabled if conditions allow and it is not latched off.
Latch Limit Current latch counter ≥ Protections:Current:Latch Limit Safety Status A()[CURLATCH] = 1
CHG FET is latched off and not autonomously re-enabled.
