Abstract
A charge/discharge control circuit controls charging and discharging using a discharge control FET which opens and closes a discharge path and a charge control FET which opens and closes a charge path. The charge/discharge control circuit includes a charge/discharge monitoring circuit; and a control circuit, turning on and off the discharge control FET connected between a secondary cell and a load and the charge control FET connected between the discharge control FET and a charger in response to a detection signal from the charge/discharge monitoring circuit and a voltage of a negative electrode of the charger, and opening and closing the discharge path and the charge path. The control circuit turns off the discharge control FET and turns on the charge control FET, and then turns off the charge control FET when detecting that the voltage of the negative electrode of the charger reaches a predetermined voltage or higher.
