Abstract

A charging and discharging control circuit is provided in which a delay circuit is built in an over-discharge detector circuit, an over-charge detector circuit, or the like. A delay time of the detector circuit can be changed from an external without adding a control terminal, thereby reducing a test time of the detector circuit. A voltage detector circuit is disposed between a power supply terminal and a power supply voltage detection terminal of the charging and discharging control circuit, and the voltage detector circuit detects a specified voltage or higher, to thereby shorten the delay time of the internal control circuit.

Claims (16)

1. A charging and discharging control circuit, comprising:

a power supply terminal for inputting a voltage of a secondary battery as a power supply;

a voltage detection terminal for inputting the voltage of the secondary battery for detection;

a voltage divider circuit for dividing a voltage of the voltage detection terminal;

a reference voltage circuit;

a voltage comparator circuit for comparing an output of the voltage divider circuit with an output of the reference voltage circuit;

a voltage detector circuit for detecting the voltage of the voltage detection terminal;

an internal control circuit for inputting an output signal of the voltage comparator circuit and an output signal of the voltage detector circuit to output a detection signal; and

a delay circuit for delaying the detection signal to output a switch control signal,

wherein a delay time of the delay circuit is shortened when the voltage detector circuit detects that the voltage of the voltage detection terminal is equal to or higher than a predetermined voltage.

2. A charging and discharging control circuit according to claim 1 , wherein the voltage comparator circuit comprises a circuit for detecting an over-discharge state of the secondary battery.

3. A charging and discharging control circuit according to claim 1 , wherein the voltage comparator circuit comprises a circuit for detecting an over-charge state of the secondary battery.

4. A charging type power supply device, comprising:

an external terminal connected to one of a charger and a load;

a secondary battery connected to the external terminal through a switch circuit; and

the charging and discharging control circuit according to claim 1 for connecting the secondary battery with the power supply terminal and the voltage detection terminal, and connecting the switch circuit with the switch control signal output terminal.
