DFN SMT Package:
The EnerChip CC is the world’s first Intelligent Thin
Film Energy Storage Device. It is an integrated
solution that provides backup energy storage and
power management for systems requiring power
bridging and/or secondary power. A single EnerChip
CC can charge up to 10 additional EnerChips
connected in parallel.
During normal operation, the EnerChip CC charges
itself with a controlled voltage using an internal
charge pump that operates from 2.5V to 5.5V. An
ENABLE pin allows for activation and deactivation
of the charge pump using an external control line
in order to minimize current consumption and take
advantage of the fast recharge time of the EnerChip.
When the primary power supply dips below a user-
defined threshold voltage, the EnerChip CC will signal
this event and route the EnerChip voltage to V
OUT
.
The EnerChip CC also has energy storage protection
circuitry to enable thousands of recharge cycles.
The CBC3112 is a 20-pin, 7 mm x 7 mm Dual Flat No-
lead (DFN) package, available in tubes, trays, or tape-
and-reel for use with automatic insertion equipment.
Applications
•
Standby supply
for non-volatile SRAM, Real-time
clocks, controllers, supply supervisors, and other
system-critical components.
•
Wireless sensors and RFID tags
and other
powered, low duty cycle applications.
•
Localized power source
to keep microcontrollers
and other devices alert in standby mode.
•
Power bridging
to provide back-up power to
system during exchange of main batteries.
•
Consumer appliances
that have real-time
clocks; provides switchover power from main
supply to backup battery.
•
Business and industrial systems
such as:
network routers, point-of-sale terminals, single-
board computers, test equipment, multi-function
printers, industrial controllers, and utility meters.
•
Energy Harvesting
by coupling the EnerChip
with energy transducers such as solar panels.

Functional Block Diagram
The EnerChip CC internal schematic is shown in Figure 2. The input voltage from the power supply (V
DD
) is
applied to the charge pump, the control logic, and is compared to the user-set threshold as determined by the
voltage on V
MODE
. V
MODE
is an analog input ranging from 0V to V
DD
. The ENABLE pin is a digital input that turns
off the charge pump when low. V
OUT
is either supplied from V
DD
or the integrated EnerChip. RESET is a digital
output that, when low, indicates V
OUT
is being sourced by the integrated EnerChip.
C
FLY
is the flying capacitor in the voltage doubler circuit. The value of C
FLY
can be changed if the output
impedance of the EnerChip CC needs to be modified. The output impedance is dictated by
1/fC,
where
f
is the
frequency of oscillation (typically 100kHz) and
C
is the capacitor value (typically 0.1µF). GND is system ground.

EnerChip Charging Characteristics
The EnerChip can be recharged quickly. The following graphs illustrate the correlation between charging time
and charging current into a discharged cell, and also the cumulative charge vs. charging time. Both graphs are
typical based on constant 4.1V charging at room temperature. Charging time increases at lower temperature.
