CE (Charge Enable)
The CE digital input is used to disable or enable the charge process. A high-level signal on this pin enables
charge, provided all the other conditions for charge are met (see ENABLE AND DISABLE CHARGING, Enable
and Disable Charging). A high-to-low transition on this pin also resets all timers and fault conditions. There is an
internal 1-MΩ pulldown resistor on the CE pin, so if CE is floated the charge does not turn on.
INDUCTOR, CAPACITOR, AND SENSE RESISTOR SELECTION GUIDELINES
The bq24630 provides internal loop compensation. With this scheme, best stability occurs when the LC resonant
frequency, f
o
, is approximately 10 kHz to 15 kHz per Equation 9:

CHARGE STATUS OUTPUTS
The open-drain STAT1 and STAT2 outputs indicate various charger operations as shown in Table 3. These
status pins can be used to drive LEDs or communicate with the host processor. Note that OFF indicates that the
open-drain transistor is turned off.
