DESCRIPTION
The DS1259 Battery Manager Chip is a low-cost battery management system for portable and nonvolatile
electronic equipment. A battery connected to the battery input pin supplies power to CMOS electronic
circuits when primary power is lost through an efficient switch via the VCCO pins. When power is supplied
from the battery, the power-fail signal is active to warn electronic reset circuits of the power status.
Energy loss during shipping and handling is avoided by pulsing reset, thereby causing the battery to be
isolated from other elements in the circuits.

OPERATION
During normal operation, VCCI (Pins 15 and 16) is the primary energy source and power is supplied to
VCCO (Pins 12 and 13) through an internal switch at a voltage level of VCCI-0.2 volts at 250 mA. During
this time the power-fail signal ( PF ) is held high, indicating valid VCCI voltage (see Figure 1). However, if
the VCCI falls below the trip point (VTP), a level of 1.26 times the battery level (VBAT), the power-fail
signal is driven low. As VCCI falls below the battery level, power is switched from VCCI to VBAT and the
battery supplies power to the uninterruptible output (VCCO) at VBAT-0.2 volts at 15 mA.
On power-up, as the VCCI supply rises above the battery, the primary energy source, VCCI, becomes the
supply. As VCCI rises above the trip point (VTP), the power fail signal is driven back to the high level.
During normal operation, BAT (Pin 5) stays at the battery level regardless of the level of VCCI.
BATTERY FAIL
When power is being supplied from the primary energy source, BF (Pin 3) is held at a high level,
provided that the attached battery (VBAT) is greater than 2 volts. If the battery level should decrease to
below 2 volts, the BF signal is driven low, indicating a low battery. The BF signal is always low when
the PF signal is low.
RESET
The reset input can be used to prevent the battery from supplying power to VCCO and BAT even if VCCI
falls below the level of the battery. This feature is activated by applying a pulsed input on RST to high
level for 50ns minimum while primary power is valid (see Figure 2). When primary power is removed
after pulsing RST, the VCCO output and BAT will go to high impedance. The next time primary power is
applied such that VCCI is greater than VBAT, normal operation resumes and VCCO will be supplied by the
battery or VCCI. The BAT output will also return to the level of the battery. Figure 3 shows the DS1259 in
a typical application.

POWER-DOWN/POWER-UP CONDITION
NOTES:
1. All voltages are referenced to ground.
2. Load capacity is 50 pF.
3. Measured with Pins 11, 12, 13, and 3 open.
4. VTP is the point that PF is driven low.
5. ICCO2 may be limited by the capability of the battery.
6. Trip point voltage for power-fail detect:
VTP = 1.26 x VBAT ± 250 mV
For 5% operation: VBAT = 3.7V max.
For 10% operation: VBAT = 3.5V max.
7. VBATF is the point that BF is driven low. These limits are for 0°C to 70°C operation.
8. Battery leakage is the internal energy consumed by the DS1259.
9. VCC = +5 volts, tA = 25°C.
