For a weakly and periodically driven two-component Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) the Melnikov chaotic solution and boundedness conditions are derived from a direct perturbation theory that leads to the chaotic regions in the parameter space. Differing from the usual results, the chaotic regions depend on the initial conditions directly and can be controlled by setting the initial phase and modulating the frequency and amplitude of laser. It is demonstrated that the order-chaos transitions can be controlled by tuning the laser frequency only.
