FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION CONT’D

This result shows that adding 1.1kΩ in series with

the thermistor sets the net resistance from TH to G

to be 0.5V at 40°C, satisfying VTHH at the correct

temperature. Adding this resistance, however, also

impacts the lower temperature limit as follows:

VTHL/ITH = kCOLD(@TC) × RNOM + R

kCOLD(@TC) = (VTHL/ITH) - R)/RNOM

Finally,

kCOLD(@TC) = (25kΩ - 1.1kΩ)/6.8kΩ = 3.51

Reviewing the characteristic curves, the lower

threshold is found to move to -5°C, a change of only

1°C. As a result, the system satisfies the upper

threshold of 40°C with an operating temperature

range of -5°C to 40°C, vs. our design target of 0°C

to 40°C. It is informative to highlight that due to the

NTC behavior of the thermistor, the relative impact

on the lower threshold is significantly smaller than

the impact on the upper threshold.

Fix VTHL

Following the same example as above, the

"unadjusted" results yield an operating temperature

range of -6°C to 33°C vs. the design goal of 0°C to

40°C. In applications that favor VTHL over VTHH,

however, one can control the voltage present at TH

at low temperatures by connecting a resistor in

parallel with ITH. The desired resistance can be

found using the following equation:

(ITH + (VCHG_IN - VTHL)/R) × kCOLD(@0°C) × RNOM = VTHL

Rearranging yields

R = (VCHG_IN - VTHL)/(VTHL/(kCOLD(@0°C) × RNOM) - ITH)

R = (5V - 2.5V)/(2.5V/(2.816 × 6.8kΩ) - 100µA)

R = 82kΩ

Adding 82kΩ in parallel with the current source

increases the net

current flowing into the

thermistor, thus increasing the voltage at TH.

Adding this resistance, however, also impacts the

upper temperature limit:

VTHH = (ITH + (VCHG_IN - VTHH)/R) × kHOT(@40°C) × RNOM

Rearranging yields,

kHOT(@TC) = VTHH/(RNOM × (ITH + (VCHG_IN - VTHH)/R))

kHOT(@TC) = 0.5V/(6.8kΩ × (100µA + (5V - 0.5V)/82kΩ))

= 0.4748

Reviewing the characteristic curves, the upper

threshold is found to move to 45°C, a change of

about 14°C. Adding the parallel resistance has

allowed us to achieve our desired lower threshold of

0°C with an operating temperature range of 0°C to

45°C, vs. our design target of 0°C to 40°C.
