description
The bq2063 SBS-compliant gas gauge IC for battery-pack or in-system installation maintains an accurate
record of available charge in Li-Ion batteries. The bq2063 monitors capacity and other critical parameters in
Li-Ion battery packs. It also directly interfaces the Seiko S-8243 protection IC to minimize component count in
smart-battery circuits.
The bq2063 uses a V-to-F converter with automatic offset correction for charge and discharge counting. For
voltage, temperature, and current reporting, the bq2063 uses an A-to-D converter. In conjunction with the
S-8243, the onboard ADC also monitors individual cell voltages in a Li-Ion battery pack and allows the bq2063
to generate control signals to enhance pack safety.
The bq2063 supports the smart battery data (SBData) commands and charge-control functions. It
communicates data using the system management bus (SMBus) 2-wire protocol or the 1-wire HDQ16 protocol.
The data available include the battery’s remaining capacity, temperature, voltage, current, and remaining
run-time predictions. The bq2063 provides LED drivers and a push-button input to depict remaining battery
capacity from full to empty in 20% or 25% increments with a 4- or 5-segment display.
The bq2063 works with an external EEPROM. The EEPROM stores the configuration information for the
bq2063, such as the battery’s chemistry, self-discharge rate, rate-compensation factors, measurement
calibration, and design voltage and capacity. The bq2063 uses the programmable self-discharge rate and other
compensation factors stored in the EEPROM to accurately adjust remaining capacity for use and standby
conditions based on time, rate, and temperature. The bq2063 also automatically calibrates or learns the true
battery capacity in the course of a discharge cycle from programmable near full to near empty levels.
The S-8243 protection IC may be used to provide power to the bq2063 from a 3- or 4-series Li-Ion cell stack.

functional description
general operation
The bq2063 determines battery capacity by monitoring the amount of charge input or removed from a
rechargeable battery. In addition to measuring charge and discharge, the bq2063 measures battery voltage,
temperature, and current, estimates battery self-discharge, and monitors the battery for low-voltage thresholds.
The bq2063 measures charge and discharge activity by monitoring the voltage across a small-value series
sense resistor between the battery’s negative terminal and the negative terminal of the battery pack. The
available battery charge is determined by monitoring this voltage and correcting the measurement for
environmental and operating conditions.
The bq2063 accepts an NTC thermistor (Semitec 103AT) for temperature measurement or can be configured
for internal IC measurement. The bq2063 uses temperature to monitor battery pack and to compensate the
self-discharge estimate.
measurements
The bq2063 uses a fully differential, dynamically balanced voltage-to-frequency converter (VFC) for charge
measurement and a sigma delta analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for battery voltage, current, and temperature
measurement.
Voltage, current, and temperature measurements are made every 2−2.2 seconds, depending on the bq2063
operating mode. Maximum times occur with compensated EDV, mWh mode, and maximum allowable
discharge rate. Any AtRate computations requested or scheduled (every 20 seconds) may add up to 0.5
seconds to the time interval.
charge and discharge counting
The VFC measures the charge and discharge flow of the battery by monitoring a small-value sense resistor
between the SR1 and SR2 pins as shown in Figure 13. The VFC measures bipolar signals up to 250 mV. The
bq2063 detects charge activity when VSR = V(SR2)–V(SR1) is positive and discharge activity when
VSR = V(SR2)–V(SR1) is negative. The bq2063 continuously integrates the signal over time using an internal
counter. The fundamental rate of the counter is 6.25 µVh.
offset calibration
The bq2063 provides an auto-calibration feature to cancel the voltage offset error across SR1 and SR2 for
maximum charge measurement accuracy. The calibration routine is initiated by issuing a command to
ManufacturerAccess( ). The bq2063 is capable of automatic offset calibration down to 6.25µV. Offset
cancellation resolution is less than 1 µV.
digital filter
The bq2063 does not measure charge or discharge counts below the digital filter threshold. The digital filter
threshold is programmed in the EEPROM and should be set sufficiently high to prevent false signal detection
with no charge or discharge flowing through the sense resistor.
voltage
While monitoring SR1 and SR2 for charge and discharge currents, the bq2063 monitors the battery-pack
potential and the individual cell voltages through the VCELL pin. The bq2063 measures the voltage of three or
four series elements in a battery pack. CTL3 and CTL4 signal the S-8243 to present the cell voltages at the
VCELL input of the bq2063 according to Table 11. The bq2063 calculates the pack voltage and reports the result
in Voltage( ). The individual cell voltages are stored in the optional manufacturer function area.

functional description (continued)
current
The SRC input of the bq2063 measures battery charge and discharge current. The SRC ADC input converts
the current signal from the series sense resistor and stores the result in Current( ). The full-scale input range
to SBC is limited to ±250 mV.
temperature
The bq2063 can use its internal sensor or an external thermistor to develop the temperature reading, depending
on the programming of the EXTH bit in Pack Configuration, EE 0x3f.
The TS input of the bq2063 in conjunction with an NTC thermistor measures the battery temperature as shown
in Figure 13. The bq2063 reports temperature in Temperature( ). THON may be used to switch the bias current
through the external thermistor when the bq2063 samples the TS input. THON is low impedance for 60 ms when
the temperature is measured, and high impedance otherwise.

general (continued)
The bq2063 accumulates a measure of charge and discharge currents and estimates self-discharge of the
battery. The bq2063 compensates the charge current measurement for temperature and state-of-charge of the
battery. The bq2063 also adjusts the self-discharge estimation based on temperature.
The main charge counter RemainingCapacity( ) (RM) represents the available capacity or energy in the battery
at any given time. The bq2063 adjusts RM for charge, self-discharge, and leakage compensation factors. The
information in the RM register is accessible through the communications ports and is also represented through
the LED display.
The FullChargeCapacity( ) (FCC) register represents the last measured full discharge of the battery. It is used
as the battery’s full-charge reference for relative capacity indication. The bq2063 updates FCC after the battery
undergoes a qualified discharge from nearly full to a low battery level. FCC is accessible through the serial
communications ports.
The Discharge Count Register (DCR) is a non-accessible register that tracks discharge of the battery. The
bq2063 uses the DCR register to update the FCC register if the battery undergoes a qualified discharge from
nearly full to a low battery level. In this way, the bq2063 learns the true discharge capacity of the battery under
system use conditions.
main gas-gauge registers
The gas-gauge register functions are described in Table 2.
RemainingCapacity( ) (RM)
RM represents the remaining capacity in the battery. The bq2063 computes RM in either mAh or 10 mWh
depending on the selected mode.
RM counts up during charge to a maximum value of FCC and down during discharge and self-discharge to 0.
In addition to charge and self-discharge compensation, the bq2063 calibrates RM at three low-battery-voltage
thresholds, EDV2, EDV1, and EDV0 and three programmable midrange thresholds VOC25, VOC50, and
VOC75. This provides a voltage-based calibration to the RM counter.
DesignCapacity( ) (DC)
The DC is the user-specified battery full capacity. It is calculated from Pack Capacity EE 0x3a-0x3b and is
represented in mAh or 10 mWh. It also represents the full-battery reference for the absolute display mode.
FullChargeCapacity( ) (FCC)
FCC is the last measured discharge capacity of the battery. It is represented in either mAh or 10 mWh,
depending on the selected mode. On initialization, the bq2063 sets FCC to the value stored in Last Measured
Discharge EE 0x38-0x39. During subsequent discharges, the bq2063 updates FCC with the last measured
discharge capacity of the battery. The last measured discharge of the battery is based on the value in the DCR
register after a qualified discharge occurs. Once updated, the bq2063 writes the new FCC value to EEPROM
in mAh to Last Measured Discharge. FCC represents the full battery reference for the relative display mode and
relative state of charge calculations.
discharge count register (DCR)
The DCR register counts up during discharge, independent of RM. DCR can continue to count even after RM
has counted down to 0. Before RM = 0, discharge activity, light discharge estimation, battery load estimation,
and self-discharge increment DCR. After RM = 0, the bq2063 does not apply self-discharge and DCR
increments only because of discharge activity, light discharge estimation, and battery load estimation. The
bq2063 initializes DCR, at the beginning of a discharge, to FCC − RM when RM is within twice the programmed
value in Near Full EE 0x55. The DCR initial value of FCC − RM is reduced by FCC/128 if SC = 0 (bit 2 in Control
Mode) and is not reduced if SC = 1. DCR stops counting when the battery voltage reaches the EDV2 threshold
on discharge.

gas gauge operation (continued)
capacity learning (FCC update) and qualified discharge
The bq2063 updates FCC with an amount based on the value in DCR if a qualified discharge occurs. The new
value for FCC equals the DCR value plus the programmable nearly full and low battery levels, according to the
following equation:
FCC (new) + DCR (final) + DCR (initial) ) Measured Discharge to EDV2 ) (FCC
Battery Low%)
(1)
Battery Low % = (value stored in EE 0x54) ÷ 2.56
A qualified discharge occurs if the battery discharges from RM ≥ FCC − Near Full × 2 to the EDV2 voltage
threshold with the following conditions:
D No valid charge activity occurs during the discharge period. A valid charge is defined as a charge of 10 mAh
into the battery.
D No more than 256 mAh of self-discharge, battery load estimation, and/or light discharge estimation occurs
during the discharge period.
D The temperature does not drop below the low temperature thresholds programmed in Max T_LowT or 12°C
during the discharge period. The threshold depends on the programming of the LLTF bit in Pack
Programming, EE 0x63.
D The battery voltage reaches the EDV2 threshold during the discharge period and the voltage was less than
the EDV2 threshold minus 256 mV when the bq2063 detected EDV2.
D No midrange voltage correction occurs during the discharge period.
D Current remains ≥ 3C/32 or C/32, depending on Pack Programming selection, when EDV2 or Battery Low
% level is reached.
The bq2063 sets VDQ=1 in Pack Status when qualified discharge begins. The bq2063 sets VDQ=0 if any
disqualifying condition occurs. FCC cannot be reduced by more than 256 mAh or increased by more than
512 mAh during any single update cycle. The bq2063 saves the new FCC value to the EEPROM within 4
seconds of being updated.
end-of-discharge thresholds and capacity correction
The bq2063 monitors the battery for three low-voltage thresholds, EDV0, EDV1, and EDV2. The EDV
thresholds can be programmed for determination based on the overall pack voltage or an individual cell level.
The EDVV bit in Pack Programming configures the bq2063 for overall voltage or single-cell EDV thresholds.
If programmed for single cell EDV determination, the bq2063 determines EDV on the basis of the lowest
single-cell voltage. Fixed EDV thresholds may be programmed in EDVF/EDV0 EE 0x72-0x73, EMF/EDV1 EE
0x74-0x75, and EDV C0 Factor/EDV2 EE 0x78-0x79. If the CEDV bit in Pack Configuration is set, automatic
EDV compensation is enabled and the bq2063 computes the EDV0, EDV1, and EDV2 thresholds based on the
values in EE 0x72-0x7d, 0x06, and the battery’s current discharge rate and temperature. The bq2063 disables
EDV detection if Current( ) exceeds the Overload Current threshold programmed in EE 0x46 − EE 0x47. The
bq2063 resumes EDV threshold detection after Current( ) drops below the overload current threshold. Any EDV
threshold detected is reset after 10 mAh of charge are applied.

The bq2063 uses the EDV thresholds to apply voltage-based corrections to the RM register according to
Table 1. The bq2063 performs EDV-based RM adjustments with Current( ) ≥ C/32. No EDVs are set if current
< C/32. The bq2063 adjusts RM as it detects each threshold. If the voltage threshold is reached before the
corresponding capacity on discharge, the bq2063 reduces RM to the appropriate amount as shown in Table 1.
This reduction occurs only if current ≥ C/32 when the EDV threshold is detected. If RM reaches the capacity
level before the voltage threshold is reached on discharge, the bq2063 prevents RM from decreasing further
until the battery voltage reaches the corresponding threshold only on a full learning cycle discharge. RM is not
held at the associated EDV percentage on a nonlearning discharge cycle (VDQ=0) or if current < C/32.

self-discharge
The bq2063 estimates the self-discharge of the battery to maintain an accurate measure of the battery capacity
during periods of inactivity. The algorithm for self-discharge estimation takes a programmed estimate for the
expected self-discharge rate at 25°C stored in EEPROM and makes a fixed reduction to RM of an amount equal
to RemainingCapacity( )/256. The bq2063 makes the fixed reduction at a varying time interval that is adjusted
to achieve the desired self-discharge rate. This method maintains a constant granularity of 0.39% for each
self-discharge adjustment, which may be performed multiple times per day, instead of once per day with a
potentially large reduction.
The self-discharge estimation rate for 25°C is doubled for each 10 degrees above 25°C or halved for each 10
degrees below 25°C. The following table shows the relation of the self-discharge estimation at a given
temperature to the rate programmed for 25°C (Y% per day).

The timer that keeps track of the self-discharge update time is halted whenever charge activity is detected. The

This means that a 0.39% reduction of RM is made 12.8 times per day to achieve the desired 5% per day
reduction at 35°C.
Figure 6 illustrates how the self-discharge estimate algorithm adjusts RemainingCapacity( ) vs temperature.
light discharge or suspend current compensation
The bq2063 can be configured in two ways to compensate for small discharge currents that produce a signal
below the digital filter. First, the bq2063 can decrement RM and DCR at a rate determined by the value stored
in Light Discharge Current EE 0x64 when it detects no discharge activity and the SMBC and SMBD lines are
high. Light Discharge Current has a range of 0 mA to 11.2 mA, with 44 µA granularity.
Alternatively, the bq2063 can be configured to disable the digital filter for discharge when the SMBC and SMBD
lines are high. In this way, the digital filter does not mask the leakage-current signal. The bq2063 is configured
in this mode by setting the NDF bit in Control Mode.
battery electronic load compensation
The bq2063 can be configured to compensate for a constant load present in the battery pack at all times, such
as from battery electronics. The bq2063 applies the compensation continuously when the charge or discharge
is below the digital filter. The bq2063 applies the compensation in addition to self-discharge. The compensation
occurs at a rate determined by the value stored in Pack Load Estimate EE 0x1c. The compensation range is
0 µA–700 µA in steps of approximately 2.75 µA.

midrange capacity corrections
The bq2063 applies midrange capacity corrections when the VCOR bit is set in Pack Configuration. The bq2063
adjusts RM to the associated percentage at three different voltage levels: VOC25, VOC50, and VOC75. The
VOC values represent the open circuit battery voltage at which RM corresponds to the associated for each
threshold.
For the midrange corrections to occur, the temperature must be in the range of 19°C to 31°C inclusive and the
Current( ) and AverageCurrent( ) must both be between −64 mA and 0. The bq2063 makes midrange
corrections as shown in Table 4. For a correction to occur, the bq2063 must detect the need for correction twice
during subsequent 20-s intervals. With the VCOR bit set, the bq2063 makes mid-range corrections whenever
conditions permit. If the OTVC bit in Pack Configuration is set and VCOR = 0, the bq2063 makes a single attempt
of mid-range correction immediately after device reset and does not require a second validation. The OTVC bit
read by command code 0x2f is cleared within 2 seconds after a device reset, when the midrange voltage
correction attempt is made.

charge control
charging voltage and current broadcasts
The bq2063 supports SBS charge control by broadcasting the ChargingCurrent( ) and ChargingVoltage( ) to
the Smart Charger address. The bq2063 broadcasts the requests every 10 seconds. The bq2063 updates the
values used in the charging current and voltage broadcasts based on the battery’s state of charge, voltage, and
temperature. The charge voltage is programmed in Charging Voltage EE 0x0a-0x0b. The charge current may
take any of four different values and depends on charge state and operating conditions.
The bq2063 internal charge control is compatible with the constant current/constant voltage profile for Li-Ion.
The bq2063 detects primary charge termination on the basis of the tapering charge current during the
constant-voltage phase.
alarm broadcasts to smart charger and host
If any of the bits 8−15 in BatteryStatus( ) are set, the bq2063 broadcasts an AlarmWarning( ) message to the
Host address. If any of the bits 12−15 in BatteryStatus( ) are set, the bq2063 also sends an AlarmWarning( )
message to the Smart Charger address. The bq2063 repeats the AlarmWarning( ) messages every 10 seconds
until the alarm bits are cleared.
precharge qualification
The bq2063 sets ChargingCurrent( ) to the precharge rate as programmed in Pre-charge Current EE 0x1e
under the following conditions:
D Voltage: The bq2063 requests the precharge charge rate when Voltage( ) or the lowest cell voltage drops
below the EDVF threshold or when the EDV0 threshold is detected. Once requested, a precharge rate
remains until Voltage( ) or the lowest cell voltage increases above the EDVF threshold. The EDVF threshold
is programmed in EDVF/ EDV0 EE 0x72-0x73.

• DALLAS, TEXAS 75265
13
Not Recommended For New Designs
SLUS468E− MAY 2001 − REVISED APRIL 2002
D Temperature: The bq2063 requests the precharge rate when Temperature( ) is between 0°C and the low
temperature fault (LTF) threshold programmed in MaxT_LowT. Temperature( ) must be equal to or greater
than the LTF threshold to allow the fast-charge rate. The LTF threshold is programmed in the lower nibble
of MaxT_LowT EE 0x45.
charge suspension
The bq2063 may temporarily suspend charge if it detects a charging fault. A charging fault includes the following
conditions.
D Overcurrent: An overcurrent condition exists when the bq2063 measures the charge current to be more
than Overcurrent Margin plus ChargingCurrent( ). Overcurrent Margin is programmed in EE 0x49. On
detecting an overcurrent condition, the bq2063 sets the ChargingCurrent( ) to zero and sets the
TERMINATE_CHARGE_ALARM bit in Battery Status( ). The overcurrent condition and
TERMINATE_CHARGE_ALARM are cleared when the measured current drops below Overcurrent Margin.
D Overvoltage: An overvoltage condition exists when the bq2063 measures the battery voltage to be more
than Overvoltage Margin plus ChargingVoltage( ), or when a Li-Ion cell voltage has exceeded the
overvoltage limit programmed in Cell Under/Overvoltage. Overvoltage Margin is programmed in EE 0x48
and Cell Under/Over Voltage in EE 0x4a. On detecting an overvoltage condition, the bq2063 sets the
ChargingCurrent( ) to zero and sets the TERMINATE_CHARGE_ALARM bit in BatteryStatus( ). The
bq2063 clears the TERMINATE_ CHARGE_ALARM bit when it detects that the battery is no longer being
charged (DISCHARGING bit set in BatteryStatus( )). The bq2063 continues to broadcast zero charging
current until the overvoltage condition is cleared. The overvoltage condition is cleared when the measured
battery voltage drops below the ChargingVoltage( ) plus the Overvoltage Margin and all cell voltages are
less than the Cell Under/Over Voltage threshold.
D Overtemperature: An overtemperature condition exists when Temperature( ) is greater than or equal to the
Max T value programmed in EE 0x45 (MSN). On detecting an overtemperature condition, the bq2063 sets
the ChargingCurrent( ) to zero and sets the OVER_TEMP_ALARM and TERMINATE_CHARGE_ ALARM
bit in BatteryStatus( ) and the CVOV bit in Pack Status. The overtemperature condition is cleared when
Temperature( ) is equal to or below (MaxT −5°C) or 43°C.
D Overcharge: An overcharge condition exists if the battery is charged more than the Maximum Overcharge
value after RM = FCC. Maximum Overcharge is programmed in EE 0x2e-0x2f. On detecting an overcharge
condition, the bq2063 sets the ChargingCurrent( ) to zero and sets the OVER_CHARGED_ALARM,
TERMINATE_CHARGE_ ALARM, and FULLY_CHARGED bits in BatteryStatus( ). The bq2063 clears the
OVER_ CHARGED_ALARM and TERMINATE_CHARGE_ ALARM when it detects that the battery is no
longer being charged. The FULLY_CHARGED bit remains set and the bq2063 continues to broadcast zero
charging current until RelativeStateOfCharge( ) is less than Fully Charged Clear% programmed in EE 0x4c.
The counter used to track overcharge capacity is reset with 2 mAh of discharge.
D Undertemperature: An undertemperature condition exists if Temperature( ) < 0°C. On detecting an under
temperature condition, the bq2063 sets ChargingCurrent( ) to zero. The bq2063 sets ChargingCurrent( )
to the appropriate precharge rate or fast-charge rate when Temperature( ) ≥ 0°C.
primary charge termination
The bq2063 terminates charge if it detects a charge-termination condition based on current taper. A
charge-termination condition includes the following:
For current taper, ChargingVoltage( ) must be set to the pack voltage desired during the constant-voltage
phase of charging. The bq2063 detects a current taper termination when the pack voltage is greater than
ChargingVoltage( ) minus Current Taper Qual Voltage in EE 0x4f and the charging current is below a
threshold determined by Current Taper Threshold in EE 0x4e, for at least 40 seconds. The bq2063 uses the
VFC to measure current for current taper termination. The current must also remain above 0.5625/Rs mA to
qualify the termination condition.

primary charge termination (continued)
Once the bq2063 detects a primary charge termination, the bq2063 sets the
TERMINATE_CHARGE_ALARM and FULLY_CHARGED bits in BatteryStatus( ), and sets the
ChargingCurrent( ) to the maintenance charge rate as programmed in Maintenance Charging Current EE
0x1d. On termination, the bq2063 also sets RM to a programmed percentage of FCC, provided that
RelativeStateOfCharge( ) is below the desired percentage of FCC and the CSYNC bit in Pack Configuration
EE 0x3f is set. The programmed percentage of FCC, Fast Charge Termination %, is set in EE 0x4b. The
bq2063 clears the FULLY_CHARGED bit when RelativeStateOfCharge( ) is less than the programmed
Fully Charged Clear %. The bq2063 broadcasts the fast-charge rate when the FULLY_CHARGED bit is
cleared and voltage and temperature permit. The bq2063 clears the TERMINATE_CHARGE_ALARM
when it no longer detects that the battery is being charged or it no longer detects the termination condition.

display port
general
The display port drives a 4 or 5 LED bar-graph display. The display is activated by a logic signal on the DISP
input. The bq2063 can display RM in either a relative or absolute mode with each LED representing a
percentage of the full-battery reference. In relative mode, the bq2063 uses FCC as the full-battery reference;
in absolute mode, it uses dc.
The DMODE bit in Pack Configuration programs the bq2063 for the absolute or relative display mode. The LED
bit in Control Mode programs the 4- or 5-LED option. A fifth LED can be used with the 4-LED display option to
show when the battery capacity is ≥100%.
activation
The display may be activated at any time by a high-to-low transition on the DISP input. This is usually
accomplished with a pullup resistor and a pushbutton switch. Detection of the transition activates the display
and starts a four second display timer. Reactivation of the display requires that the DISP input return to a
logic-high state and then transition low again. The second high-to-low transition must occur after the display
timer expires. The bq2063 requires the input to remain stable for a minimum of 250 ms to detect the logic state.
If unused, the DISP input must be pulled up to VCC.
If the EDV0 bit is set, the bq2063 disables the LED display. The display is also disabled during a VFC calibration
and should be turned off before entering low-power storage mode.
display modes
In relative mode, each LED output represents 20% or 25% of the RelativeStateOfCharge( ) value. In absolute
mode, each LED output represents 20% or 25% of the AbsoluteStateOfCharge( ) value. Table 6 shows the
display options for 5 LEDs and Table 7 for 4 LEDs.
In either mode, the bq2063 blinks the LED display if RemainingCapacity( ) is less than Remaining
CapacityAlarm( ). The display is disabled if EDV0 = 1.

Li-Ion protector control
The bq2063 provides a secondary level of protection for lithium Ion batteries, as shown in Table 8. The bq2063
uses the CTL2 output to communicate battery conditions to the S-8243A/B Protector IC. When the CVOV or
CVUV condition occurs the bq2063 changes the state of the CTL2 pin according to Table 8.
The cell overvoltage threshold should be set higher than the overvoltage threshold of the S-8243 protector,
establishing a secondary overvoltage protection limit. The cell undervoltage threshold should be set somewhat
higher than the overdischarged threshold of the S-8243 protector, establishing the primary undervoltage limit.
There is no secondary undervoltage limit if the cell undervoltage threshold is set lower, because the S-8243
goes into a power-down mode and removes VCC to the bq2063 when it detects the overdischarged limit. It is
also recommended that the bq2063 protection control be validated by two successive measurements by setting
PDLY=1 in Pack Programming.
The bq2063 asserts CVOV to turn off the charge FET if cell overvoltage, battery overvoltage, or
overtemperature conditions exist, or if AverageCurrent( ) ≥ Fast-Charging Current + Overcurrent Margin
(Prolonged Overcurrent condition in Table 5). It returns control to the S-8243 when overvoltage and
overtemperature conditions no longer exist, AverageCurrent( ) < 256 mA (if Prolonged Current generated the
fault condition), or Current( ) < 0.
The bq2063 asserts CVUV to turn off the discharge FET if a cell undervoltage condition exists, or if
AverageCurrent( ) ≤ −Overload current (Overload). It returns control to the S−8243 when the undervoltage
condition no longer exists and AverageCurrent( ) ≥ −256mA (if Overload generated the fault condition), or
Current( ) > 0.

SAFETY output
The SAFETY output of the bq2063 provides an additional level of safety control. The active low safety output
can be used to blow fuse or control another switch based on temperature or a programmable pack-voltage level.
The safety temperature threshold is programmable in Safety Overtemperature in EE 0x08 and the voltage level
is programmable in Safety Overvoltage in EE 0x1f. The bq2063 SAFETY is allowed to go low only after the
CVOV bit is set 2 seconds before either Voltage( ) > Safety Overvoltage or Temperature( ) ≥ Safety
Overtemperature. If the SAFETY output activates, the bq2063 sets the SOV bit in Pack Status. SOV remains
set until the bq2063 is reset or the bit is overwritten.
An example circuit using the SAFETY output to blow a fuse is shown in Figure 7.

the bq2063 consumes less than 10 µA. A rising edge on SMBC, SMBD, or HDQ16 restores the bq2063 to the
full operating mode. The bq2063 does not perform any gas-gauge functions during low-power storage mode.
device reset
The bq2063 can be reset with commands over the HDQ16 or SMBus. Upon reset, the bq2063 initializes its
internal registers with the information contained in the configuration EEPROM. The following command
sequence initiates a full bq2063 reset:
1. Write 0x005a to address 0x4f
2. Write 0x0000 to address 0x7d
3. Write 0x0080 to address 0x7d
A partial reset of the bq2063 occurs if step one is omitted. All initial program values are read from EEPROM
for both full and partial resets. A full reset initializes MaxError( ) = 100%, sets RELEARN FLAG (bit 7) in
BatteryMode, and initializes RM from EEPROM 0x2c−2d . This initial RM value should be programmed to zero
for secondary (rechargeable) batteries. A partial reset leaves MaxError( ), RELEARN_FLAG, and RM
unchanged.
communication
The bq2063 includes two types of communication ports: SMBus and HDQ16. The SMBus interface is a 2-wire
bidirectional protocol using the SMBC (clock) and SMBD (data) pins. The HDQ16 interface is a 1-wire
bidirectional protocol using the HDQ16 pin. All three communication lines are isolated from VCC and may be
pulled-up higher than VCC. Also, the bq2063 does not pull these lines low if VCC to the part is zero . HDQ16
should be pulled down with a 100-kΩ resistor, or may be grounded, if not used.
The communication ports allow a host controller, an SMBus compatible device, or other processor to access
the memory registers of the bq2063. In this way a system can efficiently monitor and manage the battery.
SMBus
The SMBus interface is a command-based protocol. A processor acting as the bus master initiates
communication to the bq2063 by generating a START condition. A START condition consists of a high-to-low
transition of the SMBD line while the SMBC is high. The processor then sends the bq2063 device address of

0001011 (bits 7-1) plus a R/W bit (bit 0) followed by an SMBus command code. The R/W bit (LSB) and the
command code instruct the bq2063 to either store the forthcoming data to a register specified by the SMBus
command code or output the data from the specified register. The processor completes the access with a STOP
condition. A STOP condition consists of a low-to-high transition of the SMBD line while the SMBC is high. With
SMBus, the most-significant bit (MSB) of a data byte is transmitted first.
In some instances, the bq2063 acts as the bus master. This occurs when the bq2063 broadcasts charging
requirements and alarm conditions to device addresses 0x12 (SBS Smart Charger) and 0x10 (SBS Host
Controller.)
SMBus protocol
The bq2063 supports the following SMBus protocols:
D Read Word
D Write Word
D Block Read
A processor acting as the bus master uses the three protocols to communicate with the bq2063. The bq2063
acting as the bus master uses the Write Word protocol.
The SMBD and SMBC pins are open drain and require external pullup resistors. If detection of an SMBus Off
State is required when the SMBC and SMBD lines are open, a 1-MΩ pulldown resistor in the battery pack is
recommended.
SMBus packet error checking
The bq2063 supports Packet Error Checking as a mechanism to confirm proper communication between it and
another SMBus device. Packet Error Checking requires that both the transmitter and receiver calculate a Packet
Error Code (PEC) for each communication message. The device that supplies the last byte in the
communication message appends the PEC to the message. The receiver compares the transmitted PEC to its
PEC result to determine if there is a communication error.
PEC protocol
The bq2063 can receive or transmit data with or without PEC. Figure 8 shows the communication protocol for
the Read Word, Write Word, and Read Block messages without PEC. Figure 8 includes PEC.
In the Write Word protocol, the bq2063 receives the PEC after the last byte of data from the host. If the host does
not support PEC, the last byte of data is followed by a STOP condition. After receipt of the PEC, the bq2063
compares the value to its calculation. If the PEC is correct, the bq2063 responds with an ACKNOWLEDGE. If
it is not correct, the bq2063 responds with a NOT ACKNOWLEDGE and sets an error code.
In the Read Word and Block Read, the host generates an ACKNOWLEDGE after the last byte of data sent by
the bq2063. The bq2063 then sends the PEC and the host acting as a master-receiver generates a NOT
ACKNOWLEDGE and a STOP condition.

Figure 9. SMBus Communication Protocol With PEC
PEC calculation
The basis of the PEC calculation is an 8-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC-8) based on the polynomial
C(X) = X8 + X2 + X1 + 1. The PEC calculation includes all bytes in the transmission, including address,
command, and data. The PEC calculation does not include ACKNOWLEDGE, NOT ACKNOWLEDGE, START,
STOP, and Repeated START bits.
For example, the host requests RemainingCapacity( ) from the bq2063. This includes the host following the
Read Word protocol. The bq2063 calculates the PEC based on the following 5 bytes of data, assuming the
remaining capacity of the battery is 1001 mAh.

For 0x160f17e903, the bq2063 transmits a PEC of 0xe8 to the host.
PEC enable in master mode
PEC for master mode broadcasts to the charger, host, or both can be enabled/disabled with the combination
of the bits HPE and CPE in Control Mode.
SMBus on and off state
The bq2063 detects whether the SMBus enters the Off State by monitoring the SMBC and SMBD lines. When
both signals are continually low for at least 2.5 s, the bq2063 detects the Off State. When the SMBC and SMBD
lines go high, the bq2063 detects the On State and can begin communication within 1 ms. One-MΩ pulldown
resistors on SMBC and SMBD are recommended for reliable Off State detection.
HDQ16
The HDQ16 interface is a command-based protocol. (See Figure 10.) A processor sends the command code
to the bq2063. The 8-bit command code consists of two fields: the 7-bit HDQ16 command code (bits 0-6) and
the 1-bit R/W field (MSB bit 7). The R/W field directs the bq2063 either to

Figure 10. HDQ16 Communication Example
With HDQ16, the least significant bit (LSB) of a data byte (command) or word (data) is transmitted first.
A bit transmission consists of three distinct sections. The first section starts the transmission by either the host
or the bq2063 taking the HDQ16 pin to a logic-low state for a period tSTRH;B. The next section is the actual
data-transmission, where the data bit is valid by the time tDSU;B after the negative edge used to start
communication. The data bit is held for a period t(DH;DV) to allow the host processor or bq2063 to sample the
data bit.
The final section is used to stop the transmission by returning the HDQ16 pin to a logic-high state by at least
the time tSSUB after the negative edge used to start communication. The final logic-high state should continue
for a period tCYCH;B to allow time to ensure that the bit transmission was stopped properly.

If a communication error occurs (e.g., tCYCB > 250 µs), the host sends the bq2063 a BREAK to reinitiate the
serial interface. The bq2063 detects a BREAK when the HDQ16 pin is in a logic-low state for a time tB or greater.
The HDQ16 pin is then returned to its normal ready high-logic state for a time tBR. The bq2063 is then ready
to receive a command from the host processor.
The HDQ16 pin is open drain and requires an external pullup resistor.
Figure 2 shows the HDQ16 break timing for the bq2063.
command codes
The SMBus command codes are in ( ), the HDQ16 in [ ]. Temperature( ), Voltage( ), Current( ), and
AverageCurrent( ), performance specifications are at regulated VCC (V(RO)) and a temperature of 0-70_C.
ManufacturerAccess( ) (0x00); [0x00-0x01]
Description: This function provides writable command codes to control the bq2063 during normal operation
and pack manufacture. These commands may be ignored if sent within one second of a device reset. The
following commands are available:
0x0618 Enable Low-Power Storage Mode activates the low-power storage mode. The bq2063 enters the
storage mode after a 5-8 second delay. The bq2063 accepts other commands to ManufacturerAccess( ) during
the delay before entering low-power storage mode. The LEDs must be off before entering the low-power storage
mode as the display state remains unchanged.
The bq2063 clears the ManufacturerAccess( ) command within 900ms of acknowledging the Enable
Low-Power Storage command. During the delay following the low-power storage command, a VFC Calibration
command may be issued. The VFC Calibration command must be sent 900-5000ms after SMBus
acknowledgment of the Enable Low-Power Storage command. The bq2063 delays entering storage mode until
the calibration process completes and the bq2063 stores the new calibration values in EEPROM.
0x062b SEAL instructs the bq2063 to restrict access to those functions listed in Table 3. Note: The SEAL
command does not change the state of the SEAL bit in Pack Configuration in EEPROM. The bq2063 completes
the seal function and clears ManufacturerAccess( ) within 900 ms of acknowledging the command.
0x064d Charge Synchronization instructs the bq2063 to update RM to a percentage of FCC as defined in Fast
Charge Termination %. The bq2063 updates RM and clears ManufacturerAccess( ) within 900ms of
acknowledging the command.
0x0653 Enable VFC Calibration instructs the unsealed bq2063 to begin VFC calibration. With this command
the bq2063 deselects the SR1 and SR2 inputs and calibrates for IC offset only. It is best to avoid charge or
discharge currents through the sense resistor during this calibration process.
0x067e Alternate VFC Calibration instructs the unsealed bq2063 to begin VFC calibration. With this command
the bq2063 does not deselect the SR1 and SR2 inputs and does calibrate for IC and PCB offset. During this
procedure no charge or discharge currents must flow through the sense resistor.
During VFC calibration, the bq2063 disables the LED display and accepts only the Enable Low-Power Storage
mode, the Stop VFC Calibration, and the SEAL commands to ManufacturerAccess( ). The bq2063 disregards
all other commands. SMBus communication should be kept to a minimum during VFC calibration to reduce the
noise level and allow a more accurate calibration.
Once started, the VFC calibration procedures completes automatically. When complete, the bq2063 saves the
calibration values in EEPROM. The calibration normally takes about 8 to 10 minutes. The calibration time is
inversely proportional to the bq2063 VFC (and PCB) offset error. The bq2063 caps the calibration time at one
hour in the event of calibrating zero offset error. The VFC calibration can be done as the last step in a battery
pack test procedure since the calibration can complete automatically after removal from a test setup.
The bq2063 clears ManufacturerAccess( ) within 900 ms and starts calibration within 3.2 seconds of
acknowledging the command.

0x0660 Stop VFC Calibration instructs the bq2063 to abort a VFC calibration procedure. If aborted, the bq2063
disables offset correction. The bq2063 stops calibration within 20 ms of acknowledging the command.
0x0606 Program EEPROM instructs the unsealed bq2063 to connect the SMBus to the EEPROM I2C bus. The
bq2063 applies power to the EEPROM within 900 ms of acknowledging the command. After issuing the program
EEPROM command, the bq2063 monitoring functions are disabled until the I2C bus is disconnected. The
bq2063 disconnects the I2C bus when it detects that the Battery Address 0x16 is sent over the SMBus. The
Battery Address 0x16 to disconnect the I2C bus should not be sent until 10 ms after the last write to the
EEPROM.
0x07e6 Device Revision instructs the bq2063 to return the device revision level to ManufactureAccess( ) so
it may be read.
Purpose: The ManufacturerAccess( ) function provides the system host access to bq2063 functions that are
not defined by the SBD.
SMBus Protocol: Read or Write Word
Input/Output: Word
Example:
The following sequence of actions is an example of how to use the ManufacturerAccess( ) commands efficiently
to take a battery pack that has completed all testing and calibration except for VFC calibration and to make it
ready for shipment in the SEALED state and in low-power storage mode:
1. Complete testing, programming, and calibration with desired final values stored in EEPROM with the SEAL
bit not set. Sending a reset command to the bq2063 during test ensures that RAM values correspond to
the final EEPROM values.
2. If the initial value of RemainingCapacity( ) must be nonzero, the desired value may be written to command
0x26.
3. Issue the Program EEPROM command and set the SEAL bit in EEPROM.
4. Issue the Enable VFC (or Alternate VFC) Calibration command. The bq2063 resets the OCE bit in Pack
Status when calibration begins and sets the bit when calibration successfully completes and the calibration
values have been written to EEPROM.
5. Issue the Enable Low-Power Storage Mode command. This must be done before VFC offset calibration
completes.
6. Issue the SEAL command. This must be done before VFC offset calibration completes.
After VFC calibration completes automatically, the bq2063 saves the VFC offset cancellation values in
EEPROM and then enters the low-power storage mode after about 20 seconds. In addition, the bq2063 is
sealed, allowing access only as defined in Table 2.

RemainingCapacityAlarm( ) (0x01); [0x01]
Description: Sets or gets the low-capacity threshold value. Whenever the RemainingCapacity( ) falls below
the low capacity value, the bq2063 sends AlarmWarning( ) messages to the SMBus Host with the
REMAINING_CAPACITY_ALARM bit set. A low-capacity value of 0 disables this alarm. The bq2063 initially
sets the low-capacity value to Remaining Capacity Alarm value programmed in EE 0x04−0x05. The
low-capacity value remains unchanged until altered by the RemainingCapacityAlarm( ) function. The
low-capacity value may be expressed in either current (mA) or power (10 mWh) depending on the setting of the
BatteryMode( ) CAPACITY_MODE bit.
Purpose: The RemainingCapacityAlarm( ) function can be used by systems that know how much power they
require to save their operating state. It enables those systems to more finely control the point at which they
transition into suspend or hibernate state. The low-capacity value can be read to verify the value in use by the
bq2063’s low capacity alarm.

initially sets the remaining time value to the Remaining Time Alarm value programmed in EE 0x02−0x03. The
remaining time value remains unchanged until altered by the RemainingTimeAlarm( ) function.
Purpose: The RemainingTimeAlarm( ) function can be used by systems that want to adjust when the remaining

The defined request condition is the battery requesting a conditioning cycle (RELEARN_FLAG).
Purpose: The CAPACITY_MODE bit allows power management systems to best match their electrical
characteristics with those reported by the battery. For example, a switching power supply represents a constant
power load, whereas a linear supply is better represented by a constant current model. The CHARGER_MODE
bit allows a SMBus Host or Smart Battery Charger to override the Smart Battery’s desired charging parameters
by disabling the bq2063’s broadcasts. The RELEARN_FLAG bit allows the bq2063 to request a conditioning

ALARM_MODE bit is set to disable the bq2063’s ability to master the SMBus and send AlarmWarning( )
messages to the SMBus Host and the Smart Battery Charger. When set, the bq2063 does not master the
SMBus, and AlarmWarning( ) messages are not sent to the SMBus Host and the Smart Battery Charger for a
period of no more than 65 seconds and no less than 45 seconds. When cleared (default), the Smart Battery
sends the AlarmWarning( ) messages to the SMBus Host and the Smart Battery Charger any time an alarm
condition is detected.
D The bq2063 polls the ALARM_MODE bit at least every 150 ms. Whenever the ALARM_MODE bit is set,
the bq2063 resets the bit and starts or restarts a 55 seconds (nominal) timer. After the timer expires, the
bq2063 automatically enables alarm broadcasts to ensure that the accidental deactivation of broadcasts
does not persist. An SMBus host that does not want the bq2063 to be a master on the SMBus must therefore
continually set this bit at least once per 50 seconds to keep the bq2063 from broadcasting alarms.
D The ALARM_MODE bit defaults to a cleared state within 130 ms after the bq2063 detects the SMBus
Off-State.
D The condition of the ALARM-MODE bit does not affect the operation or state of the CHARGER_MODE bit
which is used to prevent broadcasts of ChargingCurrent( ) and ChargingVoltage( ) to the Smart Battery
Charger.
CHARGER_MODE bit enables or disables the bq2063’s transmission of ChargingCurrent( ) and
ChargingVoltage( ) messages to the Smart Battery Charger. When set, the bq2063 does not transmit
ChargingCurrent( ) and ChargingVoltage( ) values to the Smart Battery Charger. When cleared, the bq2063
transmits the ChargingCurrent( ) and ChargingVoltage( ) values to the Smart Battery Charger. The
CHARGER_MODE bit defaults to a cleared state within 130 ms after the bq2063 detects the SMBus Off-State.
CAPACITY_MODE bit indicates if capacity information is reported in mA/mAh or 10mW/10 mWh. When set,
the bq2063 reports capacity information in 10 mW/10 mWh as appropriate. When cleared, the bq2063 reports
capacity information in mA/mAh as appropriate. The CAPACITY_MODE bit defaults to a cleared state within
130 ms after the bq2063 detects the SMBus Off-State.

The bq2063 updates the non-AtRate related register values within 3 seconds of changing the state of the
CAPACITY_MODE bit. The AtRate( ) values are updated after the next AtRate value is written to the bq2063
(or after the next 20 seconds scheduled refresh calculation).
AtRate( ) (0x04); [0x04]
Description: The AtRate( ) function is the first half of a two-function call-set used to set the AtRate value used
in calculations made by the AtRateTimeToFull( ), AtRateTimeToEmpty( ), and AtRateOK( ) functions. The
AtRate value may be expressed in either current (mA) or power (10 mW) depending on the setting of the
BatteryMode( ) CAPACITY_MODE bit.
Purpose: Since the AtRate( ) function is the first half of a two-function call-set, it is followed by the second
function of the call-set that calculates and returns a value based on the AtRate value and the battery’s present
state. A delay of up to 1.3 seconds is required after writing AtRate( ) before the bq2063 can acknowledge the
requested AtRate function.
D When the AtRate( ) value is positive, the AtRateTimeToFull( ) function returns the predicted time to
full-charge at the AtRate value of charge.
D When the AtRate( ) value is negative, the AtRateTimeToEmpty( ) function returns the predicted operating
time at the AtRate value of discharge.
D When the AtRate( ) value is negative, the AtRateOK( ) function returns a Boolean value that predicts the
battery’s ability to supply the AtRate value of additional discharge energy (current or power) for 10 seconds.
The default value for AtRate( ) is zero. Writing AtRate( ) values over the HDQ16 serial port does not trigger a
re-calculation of AtRateTimeToFull( ), AtRateTimeToEmpty( ), and AtRateOK( ) functions.
It is recommended that AtRate( ) requests should be limited to one request every 4 seconds.
SMBus Protocol: Read or Write Word
Input/Output: Signed integer-charge or discharge; the AtRate( ) value is positive for charge, negative for
discharge, and zero for neither (default).

AtRateTimeToFull( ) (0x05); [0x05]
Description: Returns the predicted remaining time to fully charge the battery at the AtRate( ) value (mA).
Purpose: The AtRateTimeToFull( ) function is part of a two-function call-set used to determine the predicted
remaining charge time at the AtRate value in mA. The bq2063 updates AtRateTimeToFull( ) within 1.3 seconds
after the SMBus Host sets the AtRate value. If read before this delay, the command is No Acknowledged and
the error code in BatteryStatus is set to not ready. The bq2063 automatically updates AtRateTimeToFull( )
based on the AtRate( ) value every 20 seconds.

AtRateTimeToEmpty( ) (0x06); [0x06]
Description: Returns the predicted remaining operating time if the battery is discharged at the AtRate( ) value.
Purpose: The AtRateTimeToEmpty( ) function is part of a two-function call-set used to determine the remaining
operating time at the AtRate( ) value. The bq2063 updates AtRateTimeToEmpty( ) within 1.3 seconds after the
SMBus Host sets the AtRate( ) value. If read before this delay, the command is No Acknowledged, and the error
code in BatteryStatus is set to not ready. The bq2063 automatically updates AtRateTimeToEmpty( ) based on

Description: Returns a Boolean value that indicates whether or not the battery can deliver the AtRate( )value
of additional energy for 10 seconds (Boolean). If the AtRate value is zero or positive, the AtRateOK( ) function
ALWAYS returns true.
Purpose: The AtRateOK( ) function is part of a two-function call-set used by power management systems to
determine if the battery can safely supply enough energy for an additional load. The bq2063 updates
AtRateOK( ) within 1.3 seconds after the SMBus Host sets the AtRate( ) value. If read before this delay, the
command is No Acknowledged, and the error code in BatteryStatus is set to not ready. The bq2063

Description: Returns the temperature (K) measured by the bq2063.
Purpose: The Temperature( ) function provides accurate cell temperatures for use by battery chargers and
thermal management systems. A battery charger can use the temperature as a safety check. Thermal
management systems may use the temperature because the battery is one of the largest thermal sources in
a system.

Description: Returns a value that approximates a one-minute rolling average of the current being supplied (or
accepted) through the battery terminals (mA). The AverageCurrent( ) function returns meaningful values during
the battery’s first minute of operation.
Purpose: The AverageCurrent( ) function provides the average current flowing into or out of the battery for the
power management system.

MaxError( ) (0x0c); [0x0c]
Description: Returns the expected margin of error (%) in the state of charge calculation. For example, when
MaxError( ) returns 10% and RelativeStateOfCharge( ) returns 50%, the Relative StateOfCharge( ) is more
likely between 50% and 60%. The bq2063 sets MaxError( ) to 100% on a full reset. The bq2063 sets MaxError( )
to 2% on completion of a learning cycle, unless the bq2063 limits the learning cycle to the +512/-256 mAh
maximum adjustment values. If the learning cycle is limited, the bq2063 sets MaxError( ) to 8% unless
MaxError( ) was already below 8%. In this case MaxError( ) does not change. The bq2063 increments
MaxError( ) by 1% after four increments of CycleCount( ) without a learning cycle.
If voltage-based corrections are applied to the coulomb counter, MaxError( ) is set to 25%.
Purpose: The MaxError( ) function has real value in two ways: first, to give the user a confidence level about
the state of charge and second, to give the power management system information about how aggressive it
should be, particularly as the battery nears the end of its life.

EEPROM
general
The bq2063 accesses the external EEPROM during reset and when storing historical data. During an EEPROM
access, the VOUT pin becomes active and the bq2063 uses the ESCL and ESDA pins to communicate with
the EEPROM. The EEPROM stores basic configuration information for use by the bq2063. The EEPROM must
be programmed correctly for proper bq2063 operation.

PROGRAMMING INFORMATION
EEPROM programming
The following sections describes the function of each EEPROM location and how the data is to be stored.
fundamental parameters
sense resistor value
Two factors are used to scale the current related measurements. The 16-bit ADC Sense Resistor Gain value
in EE 0x68-0x69 scales Current( ) to mA. Adjusting ADC Sense Resistor Gain from its nominal value provides
a method to calibrate the current readings for system errors and the sense resistor value (Rs) . The nominal
value is set by
(4)
ADC Sense Resistor Gain + 625
(Rs)
The 16-bit VFC Sense Resistor Gain in EE 0x6a-0x6b scales each VFC interrupt to mAh. VFC Sense Resistor
Gain is based on the resistance of the series sense resistor. The following formula computes a nominal or
starting value for VFC Sense Resistor Gain from the sense resistor value.
(5)
VFC Capital Sense Resistor Gain + 409.6
(Rs)
Sense resistor values are limited to the range of 0.00916 to 0.100Ω.
digital filter
The desired digital filter threshold, VDF (µV), is set by the value stored in Digital Filter EE 0x52.

cell characteristics
battery pack capacity and voltage
Pack capacity in mAh units is stored in Pack Capacity, EE 0x3a-0x3b. In mAh mode, the bq2063 copies Pack
Capacity to DesignCapacity( ). In mWh mode, the bq2063 multiplies Pack Capacity by Design Voltage EE
0x12-0x13 to calculate DesignCapacity( ) scaled to 10 mWh. Design Voltage is stored in mV.
The initial value for Last Measured Discharge, in mAh, is stored in EE 0x38−0x39. Last Measured Discharge
is modified over the course of pack usage to reflect cell aging under the particular use conditions. The bq2063
updates Last Measured Discharge in mAh after a capacity learning cycle. The bq2063 uses the Last Measured
Discharge value to calculate FullChargeCapacity( ) in mAh or 10 mWh mode.
EDV thresholds and near full percentage
The bq2063 uses three pack voltage thresholds to provide voltage-based warnings of low battery capacity. The
bq2063 uses the values stored in EEPROM for the EDV0, EDV1, and EDV2 values or calculates the three
thresholds from a base value and the temperature, capacity, and rate adjustment factors stored in EEPROM.
If EDV compensation is disabled then EDV0, EDV1, and EDV2 are stored directly in mV in EE 0x72-0x73, EE
0x74-0x75, and EE 0x78-0x79, respectively.
For capacity correction at EDV2, Battery Low % EE 0x54 can be set at a desired state-of-charge,
STATEOFCHARGE%, in the range of 3-19%. Typical values for STATEOFCHARGE% are 5-7% representing
5-7% capacity.
Battery Low % = STATEOFCHARGE% • 2.56

EDV thresholds and near full percentage (continued)
The bq2063 updates FCC if a qualified discharge occurs from a near-full threshold of FCC − NFW, until EDV2
condition is reached. The desired near-full threshold window, NFW (mAh), is programmed in Near Full in EE
0x55.

EVD discharge rate and temperature compensation
If EDV compensation is enabled, the bq2063 calculates battery voltage to determine EDV0, EDV1, and EDV2
thresholds as a function of battery capacity, temperature, and discharge load. The general equation for EDV0,
EDV1, and EDV2 calculation is
EDV0,1,2 = EMF • FBL - | ILOAD | • R0 • FTZ
(9)
Where:
EMF is a no-load battery voltage higher than the highest EDV threshold computed. EMF is programmed in
mV in EMF/EDV1 EE 0x74-0x75.
ILOAD is the current discharge load magnitude.
FBL is the factor that adjusts the EDV voltage for battery capacity and temperature to match the no-load
characteristics of the battery.
FBL = f ( C0, C + C1, T )
(10)
Where:
C (either 0%, 3%, or Battery Low % for EDV0, EDV1, and EDV2, respectively) and C0 are the capacityrelated EDV adjustment factors. C0 is programmed in EDV C0 Factor/EDV2 EE 0x78−79. C1 is the desired
residual battery capacity remaining at EDV0 (RM = 0). The C1 factor is stored in EDV C1 Factor EE 0x06.
T is the current temperature in °K.
R0 • FTZ represents the resistance of the battery as a function of temperature and capacity.
(11)
FTZ = f ( R1 , T0, T, C + C1, TC)
R0 is the first order rate dependency factor stored in EDV R0 Factor EE 0x7a-0x7b.
T is the current temperature; C is the battery capacity relating to EDV0, EDV1, and EDV2.
R1 adjusts the variation of impedance with battery capacity. R1 is programmed in EDV R1 Rate Factor EE
0x7c-0x7d.
T0 adjusts the variation of impedance with battery temperature). T0 is programmed in EDV T0 Rate Factor EE
0x76-0x77.
TC adjusts the variation of impedance for cold temperatures (T < 23°C). TC is programmed in EDV TC EE 0x07.

During charge, the bq2063 compares the current to the ChargingCurrent( ) plus the value IOIM. If the pack is
charged at a current above the ChargingCurrent( ) plus IOIM, the bq2063 sets ChargingCurrent( ) to zero to
stop charging. IOIM is programmed in the EE 0x49 value, Overcurrent Margin, encoded as
(19)
Overcurrent Margin + IOIM
16
Overcurrent Margin EE 0x49 may be used to program IOIM values of 0 to 4080mA in 16mA steps.
The desired temperature threshold for charge suspension, MAXTEMP, may be programmed between 45°C and
69°C in 1.6°C steps. MaxT LowT EE 0x45 (MSN) is stored in a 4-bit value as shown:
(20)
MaxT + 69–MAXTEMP
1.6
The bq2063 suspends fast charge when fast charge continues past full by the amount programmed in Maximum
Overcharge EE 0x2e-0x2f. Maximum Overcharge is programmed in 2s complement form of charge in mAh.
FULLY_CHARGED bit clear threshold
The bq2063 clears the FULLY_CHARGED bit in BatteryStatus( ) when RelativeStateOfCharge( ) reaches the
value, Fully Charged Clear % EE 0x4c. Fully Charged Clear % is an 8-bit value and is stored as a 2s complement
of percent.
fast charge termination percentage
The bq2063 sets RM to a percentage of FCC on charge termination if the CSYNC bit is set in the Pack
Configuration register. The percentage of FCC, FCT%, is stored in Fast Charge Termination % in EE 0x4b. The
value is stored as shown:
Fast Charge Termination% = (FCT% * 2.56−1)
cycle count threshold
Cycle Count Threshold 0x3c-0x3d sets the number of mAh that must be removed from the battery to increment
CycleCount( ). Cycle Count Threshold is a 16-bit value stored in 2s complement of charge in mAh.

To describe how the bq2063 calculates reported battery and three individual cell voltages, the following
abbreviations and designations are used:
D
D
D
D
D
VCELL = voltage at the input pin of the bq2063
VCELLN = reported single-cell voltages (N = 1–4)
Vn = single cell voltage (n = 1−4)
VnOffset= single-cell offset voltages (n = 1–4)
Voltage( ) = reported battery voltage
The bq2063 requests inputs to the VCELL pin. The S-8243 presents either a scaled single-cell voltage or the
offset associated with the voltage, per Table 11. The voltage for each cell, Vn, may be determined by subtracting
the offset measurement from the corresponding cell plus offset measurement.
After subtracting the two ADC readings from each cell voltage, the reported VCELLN voltage is computed as
follows:
Gain

An ADC Voltage Gain factor of 12500 in EE 0x66−0x67 is the nominal value to correct for the nominal 0.2 (5:1
reduction) gain of the S-8243.
The bq2063 computes the reported voltages as follows:
Voltage( ) = VCELL1 + VCELL2 + VCELL3 + VCELL4
(29)
The bq2063 reports VCELL4 as the most positive cell in the cell stack. Note that this is documented as V1 in
the S-8243 data sheet. The other cell voltages are also in inverse order.

measurement calibration (continued)
current
The bq2063 scales Current( ) to mA units by the 16-bit value ADC Sense Resistor Gain in EE 0x68-0x69.
Adjusting ADC Sense Resistor Gain from its nominal value provides a method to calibrate the current readings
for variances in the ADC gain, internal voltage reference, and sense resistor value. The bq2063 calculates
Current( ) by
Current( ) +
) * ADC Sense Resistor Gain
ƪ(ADC Reading ) ADC Offset
ƫ
16384
(30)
The nominal value for ADC Sense Resistor Gain is given by equation (4).
ADC Offset in EE 0x62 adjusts the ADC reading for bq2063 measurement offset. ADC Offset is a signed 8-bit
value that cancels offset present in the ADC measurement. ADC Offset is typically between –20 and 20.
vfc
To calibrate the coulomb counting measurement for VFC gain errors and sense resistor tolerance, the value
of VFC Sense Resistor Gain EE 0x6a-0x6b may be adjusted from its nominal value.
The nominal value of VFC Sense Resistor Gain is given by equation (6).
The bq2063 VFC circuit has the ability to introduce a signal opposite in sign to the inherent device and circuit
offset to cancel this error. The offset calibration routine is initiated with commands to ManufacturerAccess( ).
The bq2063 calculates the offset with the calibration routine and stores the calibration value using the least 21
bits of VFC Offset in EE 0x5e-0x60.
The least 20 bits store the offset calibration value (OCV). The sign of the offset calibration value is positive if
the 21st bit is 0.

In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
