7.2.2.3.2 CP Control Logic and Capacitor

To support supplement mode and consecutive high system load pulses, the device turns the CHG FET ON using internal control logic and an external capacitor (CCP) connected between the device's CP and CP_BOOT pins. This capacitor is discharged to the device's CHG pin when the device enters the CHG = LIN_ON state and is recharged immediately after the CHG FET turns ON. Additionally if the device's current limiter is enabled, the external CCP capacitor is charged during device operation regardless of whether the device is actively charging a battery.

When the external CP capacitor charges, the capacitor charges using the available battery voltage. To ensure the device properly enters and exits supplement mode, additional resistance between the positive terminal of the cell (CELL+) and the device's BAT pin is not recommended. This prevents unintended device brownouts when the CP capacitor must be recharged in between high system load pulses to support the next entry into supplement mode. The total resistance between CELL+ and the device BAT pin is not recommended to exceed 110mΩ.

Place the external CP capacitor with the recommended typical capacitance of 1µF connected between the CP and CP_BOOT pins as close to the device as possible.
