Preliminary bq2014H Low-Cost NiCd/NiMH Gas Gauge IC Features General Description ➤ Accurate measurement of available capacity in NiCd or NiMH batteries T he b q 2 0 1 4 H N iC d / N iM H G a s Gauge IC is intended for batterypack or in-system installation to maintain an accurate record of available battery capacity. The IC monitors a voltage drop across a sense resistor connected in series between the negative battery termina l a n d g r ou n d t o d e t e r m i n e charge and discharge activity of the battery. Compensations for battery temperature, self-discharge, and rate of discharge are applied to the charge counter to provide available capacity information across a wide range of operating conditions. Battery capacity is automatically recalibrated, or “learned,” in the course of a discharge cycle from full to empty. ➤ Low-cost battery management solution for pack integration - As little as 1 2 square inch of PCB for complete circuit - Low operating current (120µA typical) - Less than 100nA of data retention current ➤ High-speed (5kb/s) single-wire communication interface (HDQ bus) for critical battery parameters ➤ Communication with an external charge controller such as the bq2004 ➤ Direct drive of remaining capacity LEDs bidirectional serial link to an external processor (common ground). The 5kb/s HDQ bus interface reduces communications overhead in the external microcontroller. Internal registers include available capacity and energy, temperature, voltage and current, and battery status. The external processor may also overwrite some of the bq2014H gas gauge data registers. The bq2014H can operate from the batteries in the pack. The REF output and an external transistor allow a simple, inexpensive voltage regulator to supply power to the circuit from the cells.

DISP tied to VCC allows PROGX to connect directly to VCC or VSS instead of through a pull-up or pull-down resistor. DISP floating allows the LED display to be active during charge. DISP low activates the display. See Table 1. LED common output Open-drain output that switches V CC to source current for the LEDs.

PROG1– PROG2 Display control input The voltage drop (VSR) across the sense resistor RS is monitored and integrated over time to interpret charge and discharge activity. VSR < VSS indicates discharge, and VSR > VSS indicates charge. The effective voltage drop, VSRO, as seen by the bq2014H is VSR + VOS . 2 Supply voltage input Preliminary bq2014H capacity to drive the LED display. In addition, the bq2014H estimates the available energy using the average battery voltage during the discharge cycle and remaining compensated available capacity. Functional Description General Operation Figure 1 shows a typical battery pack application of the bq2014H using the LED display capability as a chargestate indicator. The bq2014H is configured to display capacity in relative display mode. The relative display mode uses the last measured discharge capacity of the battery as the battery “full” reference. A push-button display feature is available for momentarily enabling the LED display. The bq2014H determines battery capacity by monitoring the amount of current input to or removed from a rechargeable battery. The bq2014H measures discharge and charge currents, measures battery voltage, estimates self-discharge, monitors the battery for low battery-voltage thresholds, and compensates for temperature and charge/discharge rate. Current measurement is made by monitoring the voltage across a small-value series sense resistor between the negative battery terminal and ground. The bq2014H compensates the nominal available capacity register for discharge rate and temperature and reports the compensated available capacity. The bq2014H uses the compensated available The bq2014H monitors the charge and discharge currents as a voltage across a sense resistor. (See RS in Figure 1.) A filter between the negative battery terminal and the SR pin is required.

Battery Pack Application Diagram—LED Display 3 bq2014H Preliminary Voltage Thresholds In conjunction with monitoring VSR for charge/discharge currents, the bq2014H monitors the battery potential through the SB pin for the end-of-discharge voltage (EDV) thresholds. TMP (hex) Temperature Range 0x < -30°C 1x -30°C to -20°C The EDV threshold levels are used to determine when the battery has reached an “empty” state. 2x -20°C to -10°C The EDV thresholds for the bq2014H are programmable with the default values fixed as follows: 3x -10°C to 0°C EDV1 (first) = 0.76V 4x 0°C to 10°C 5x 10°C to 20°C 6x 20°C to 30°C 7x 30°C to 40°C 8x 40°C to 50°C 9x 50°C to 60°C Ax 60°C to 70°C Bx 70°C to 80°C Cx > 80°C EDVF (final) = EDV1 - 0.025V = 0.735V The battery voltage divider (RB1 and RB2 in Figure 1) is used to scale these values to the desired threshold. If VSB is below either of the two EDV thresholds, the associated flag is latched and remains latched, independent of VSB, until the next valid charge. EDV monitoring is disabled if the discharge rate is greater than 2C (OVLD Flag = 1) and resumes 1 2 second after the rate falls below 2C. The VSB value is available over the serial port. RBI Input The RBI input pin is used with a storage capacitor or external supply to provide backup potential to the internal bq2014H registers when VCC drops below 3.0V. VCC is output on RBI when VCC is above 3.0V. If using an external supply (such as the bottom series cell) as the backup source, an external diode is required for isolation. Layout Considerations Reset The bq2014H can be reset by removing VCC and grounding the RBI pin for 15 seconds or by commands over the serial port. The serial port reset command sequence requires writing 00h to register PPFC (address = 1Eh) and then writing 00h to register LMD (address = 05h). The bq2014H measures the voltage differential between the SR and VSS pins. VOS (the offset voltage at the SR pin) is greatly affected by PC board layout. For optimal results, the PC board layout should follow the strict rule of a single-point ground return. Sharing high-current ground with small-signal ground causes undesirable noise on the small-signal nodes. Additionally: Temperature ■ The bq2014H internally determines the temperature in 10°C steps centered from approximately -35°C to +85°C. The temperature steps are used to adapt charge and discharge rate compensations, self-discharge counting, and available charge display translation. The capacitors (C1 and C2) should be placed as close as possible to the VCC and SB pins, respectively, and their paths to VSS should be as short as possible. A high-quality ceramic capacitor of 0.1µF is recommended for VCC. ■ The temperature range is available over the serial port in 10°C increments, as shown in the following table The sense-resistor capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the SR pin. ■ The sense resistor (RS) should be as close as possible to the bq2014H. 4 Preliminary bq2014H The battery's initial capacity equals the Programmed Full Count (PFC) shown in Table 2. Until LMD is updated, NAC counts up to but not beyond this threshold during subsequent charges. This approach allows the gas gauge to be charger-independent and compatible with any type of charge regime. Gas Gauge Operation The operational overview diagram in Figure 2 illustrates the operation of the bq2014H. The bq2014H accumulates a measure of charge and discharge currents, as well as an estimation of self-discharge. The accumulated charge and discharge currents are adjusted for temperature and rate to provide the indication of compensated available capacity to the host system or user. 1. LMD is the last measured discharge capacity of the battery. On initialization (application of VCC or battery replacement), LMD = PFC. During subsequent discharges, the LMD is updated with the latest measured capacity in the Discharge Count Register representing a discharge from full to below EDV1. A qualified discharge is necessary for a capacity transfer from the DCR to the LMD register. The LMD also serves as the 100% reference threshold used by the relative display mode. The main counter, Nominal Available Capacity (NAC), represents the available battery capacity at any given time. Battery charging increments the NAC register, while battery discharging and self-discharge decrement the NAC register and increment the DCR (Discharge Count Register). The Discharge Count Register is used to update the Last Measured Discharge (LMD) register only if a complete battery discharge from full to empty occurs without any partial battery charges. Therefore, the bq2014H adapts its capacity determination based on the actual conditions of discharge.

Operational Overview 5 + F2014HOO.eps bq2014H Preliminary 2. Programmed Full Count (PFC) or initial battery capacity: Example: Selecting a PFC Value Given: The initial LMD and gas gauge rate values are programmed by using PROG1–PROG4. The bq2014H is configured for a given application by selecting a PFC value from Table 2. The correct PFC may be determined by multiplying the rated battery capacity in mAh by the sense resistor value: Sense resistor = 0.05Ω Number of cells = 10 Capacity = 3500mAh, NiMH Current range = 50mA to 1A Relative display mode Self-discharge = NAC 47 per day @ 25°C Voltage drop over sense resistor = 2.5mV to 50mV Nominal discharge voltage = 1.2V Battery capacity (mAh) * sense resistor (Ω) = PFC (mVh) Therefore: Selecting a PFC slightly less than the rated capacity provides a conservative capacity reference until the bq2014H “learns” a new capacity reference. 3500mAh * 0.05Ω = 175mVh Table 1.

SAE may be converted to an mWh value using the following formula: Select: PFC = 27648 counts or 173mVh PROG1 = low PROG2 = high PROG3 = float PROG4 = low PROG5 = low E(mWh) = (SAEH ∗ 256 + SAEL) ∗ 1.2 ∗ SCALE ∗ (RB1 + RB2) RS ∗ RB2 The initial full battery capacity is 173mVh (3460mAh) until the bq2014H “learns” a new capacity with a qualified discharge from full to EDV1. 3. where RB1, RB2, and RS are resistor values in ohms, as shown in Figure 1. SCALE is the selected scale from Table 2. Nominal Available Capacity (NAC): 6. Compensated Available Capacity (CACT) NAC counts up during charge to a maximum value of LMD and down during discharge and self-discharge to 0. NAC is reset to 0 on initialization and on the first valid charge following discharge to EDV1. To prevent overstatement of charge during periods of overcharge, NAC stops incrementing when NAC = LMD or 0.94 ∗ LMD if T < 0°C. 4. CACT counts similarly to NAC, but contains the available capacity compensated for discharge rate and temperature. Charge Counting Charge activity is detected based on a positive voltage on the SR input. If charge activity is detected, the bq2014H increments NAC at a rate proportional to VSR and, if enabled, activates the LED display. Discharge Count Register (DCR): The DCR counts up during discharge independent of NAC and could continue increasing after NAC has decremented to 0. Prior to NAC = 0 (empty battery), both discharge and self-discharge increment the DCR. After NAC = 0, only discharge increments the DCR. The DCR resets to 0 when NAC ≥ 0.94 ∗ LMD and a discharge is detected. The DCR does not roll over but stops counting when it reaches FFh. The bq2014H counts charge activity when the voltage at the SR input (V SRO ) exceeds the minimum charge threshold (VSRQ). A valid charge is detected when NAC has been updated twice without discharging or reaching the digital magnitude filter time-out. Once a valid charge is detected, charge counting continues until VSR, including offset, falls below VSRQ. Discharge Counting The DCR value becomes the new LMD value on the first charge after a valid discharge to VEDV1 if all the following conditions are met: ■ No valid charge initiations (charges greater than 2 NAC updates where VSRO > VSRQ) occurred during the period between NAC ≥ 0.94 ∗ LMD and EDV1. ■ The self-discharge is less than 6.25% of NAC. ■ Discharge activity is indicated by a negative voltage on the SR input. All discharge counts where VSRO is less than the minimum discharge threshold (VSRD) cause the NAC register to decrement and the DCR to increment. Self-Discharge Counting The bq2014H continuously decrements NAC and increments DCR for self-discharge on the basis of time and temperature. The temperature is ≥ 0°C when the EDV1 level is reached during discharge. ■ The discharge begins when NAC ≥ 0.94 ∗ LMD. ■ VDQ is set. Charge/Discharge Current The bq2014H current-scale registers, VSRH and VSRL, can be used to determine the battery charge or discharge current. See the Current Scale Register description for details. The valid discharge flag (VDQ) indicates whether the present discharge is valid for LMD update. If the DCR update value is less than 0.94 ∗ LMD, LMD will only be modified by 0.94 ∗ LMD. This prevents invalid DCR values from corrupting LMD. 5. Scaled Available Energy (SAE): SAE is useful in determining the available energy within the battery, and may provide a more useful 7 bq2014H Preliminary Count Compensations Self-Discharge Compensation The self-discharge compensation is programmed for a nominal rate of 1 64 * NAC per day, 1 47 ∗ NAC per day, or disabled. This is the rate for a battery within the 20°C–30°C temperature range (TMPGG = 6x). This rate varies across 8 ranges from <10°C to >70°C, doubling Charge Compensation Two charge efficiency compensation factors are used for trickle and fast charge. Trickle charge is defined as a rate of charge < C/3. The compensation defaults to the fastcharge factor until the actual charge rate is determined. Temperature adapts the charge rate compensation factors over two ranges between nominal and hot temperatures. The compensation factors are shown below. Charge Temperature Trickle-Charge Compensation < 40°C > 40°C Table 3. Self-Discharge Compensation Temperature Step Fast-Charge Compensation 0.81 0.94 0.75 0.88 Compensated Available Capacity NAC is adjusted for rate of discharge and temperature to derive the CACD and CACT values. Corrections for the rate of discharge are made by adjusting an internal discharge compensation factor. The discharge factor is based on the discharge rate. This compensation is applied to NAC to derive the value in the CACD register. Rate Efficiency Factor < 2C 100% > 2C 95% < 10°C NAC 10–20°C NAC 20–30°C NAC 30–40°C NAC 40–50°C NAC 50–60°C NAC 60–70°C NAC > 70°C NAC 256 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 PROG5 = L NAC 188 NAC NAC NAC NAC NAC NAC NAC 94 47 23 .5 11 .8 5 .88 2 .94 1 .47 with each higher temperature step (10°C). See Table 3. Digital Magnitude Filter The bq2014H has a digital filter to eliminate charge and discharge counting below a set threshold. The threshold for both VSRD and VSRQ is 250µV. The compensation factors during discharge are: Approximate Discharge Rate Typical Rate PROG5 = Z Temperature compensation during discharge also takes place. At lower temperatures, the compensation factor increases by 0.05 for each 10°C temperature range below 10°C. This compensation is applied to CACD to derive the value in the CACT register. The temperature compensation factor follows the equation Temperature Efficiency Factor = 1.00 - (0.05 ∗ N) where N = number of 10°C steps below 10°C. For example, T > 10°C: Nominal compensation, N = 0 0°C < T < 10°C: N = 1 (temperature efficiency = 95%) -10°C < T < 0°C: N = 2 (temperature efficiency = 90%) -20°C < T < -10°C: N = 3 (temperature efficiency = 85%) -20°C < T < -30°C: N = 4 (temperature efficiency = 80%) 8 Preliminary bq2014H Table 6. bq2014H Current-Sensing Errors Symbol Parameter Typical INL Integrated non-linearity error ±2 INR Integrated nonrepeatability error ±1 Maximum Units Notes ±4 % Add 0.1% per °C above or below 25°C and 1% per volt above or below 4.25V. ±2 % Measurement repeatability given similar operating conditions. Done Input Error Summary A charge-control IC or a microcontroller uses the DONE input to communicate charge status to the bq2014H. When the DONE input is asserted high on charge completion, the bq2014H sets NAC = LMD and VDQ = 1. The DONE input should be maintained high as long as the charge controller or microcontroller keeps the batteries full; otherwise, the pin should be held low. Capacity Inaccurate The LMD is susceptible to error on initialization or if no updates occur. On initialization, the LMD value includes the error between the programmed full capacity and the actual capacity. This error is present until a valid discharge occurs and LMD is updated. (See the DCR description.) The other cause of LMD error is battery wear-out. As the battery ages, the measured capacity must be adjusted to account for changes in actual battery capacity. Communicating with the bq2014H The bq2014H includes a simple single-pin (HDQ plus return) serial data interface. A host processor uses the interface to access various bq2014H registers. Battery characteristics may be easily monitored by adding a single contact to the battery pack. The open-drain HDQ pin on the bq2014H should be pulled up by the host system, or may be left floating if the serial interface is not used. A Capacity Inaccurate counter (CPI) is maintained and incremented each time a valid charge occurs (qualified by NAC; see the CPI register description). It is reset whenever LMD is updated from the DCR. The counter does not wrap around but stops counting at 255. The capacity inaccurate flag (CI) is set if LMD has not been updated following 64 valid charges. The interface uses a command-based protocol, in which the host processor sends a command byte to the bq2014H. The command directs the bq2014H to either store the next eight bits of data received to a register specified by the command byte or output the eight bits of data specified by the command byte. (See Figure 4.) Current-Sensing Error Table 6 shows the non-linearity and non-repeatability errors associated with the bq2014H current sensing. Table 7 illustrates the current-sensing error as a function of VOS. A digital filter prevents charge and discharge counts to the NAC register when VSRO is between VSRQ and VSRD. The communication protocol is asynchronous return-toone. Command and data bytes consist of a stream of eight bits that have a maximum transmission rate of 5K bits/sec. The least-significant bit of a command or data byte is transmitted first. The protocol is simple enough that it can be implemented by most host processors using either polled or interrupt processing. Data input from the bq2014H may be sampled using the pulse-width capture timers available on some microcontrollers. Table 7.

A BREAK is detected when the HDQ pin is driven to a logic-low state for a time, tB or greater. The HDQ pin should then be returned to its normal ready-high logic state for a time, tBR. The bq2014H is now ready to receive a command from the host processor. 9 bq2014H Preliminary The return-to-one data bit frame consists of three distinct sections: 1. The first section is used to start the transmission by either the host or the bq2014H taking the HDQ pin to a logic-low state for a period, tSTRH;B. 2. The next section is the actual data transmission, where the data should be valid by a period, tDSU;B, after the negative edge used to start communication. The data should be held for a period, tDH;DV, to allow the host or bq2014H to sample the data bit. 3. The final section is used to stop the transmission by returning the HDQ pin to a logic-high state by at least a period, tSSU;B, after the negative edge used to start communication. The final logic-high state should be until a period tCYCH;B, to allow time to ensure that the bit transmission was stopped properly. The timings for data and break communication are given in the serial communication timing specification and illustration sections. Communication with the bq2014H is always performed with the bit transmitted first. Figure 5 shows an example of a communication sequence to read the bq2014H NACH register. The bq2014H latches the command code when eight valid command bits have been received by the bq2014H. The command code contains two fields: Command address The following eight bits should be written to the register specified by the address portion of command code. Command Code Bits 7 - 6 5 AD6 AD5 4 3 2 1 0 AD4 AD3 AD2 AD1 AD0 (LSB) Primary Status Flags Register (FLGS1) The FLGS1 register (address = 01h) contains the primary bq2014H flags. The charge status flag (CHGS) is asserted when a valid charge rate is detected. Charge rate is deemed valid when VSRO > VSRQ. A VSRO of less than VSRQ or discharge activity clears CHGS. The CHGS values are The W/R bit of the command code is used to select whether the received command is for a read or a write function: 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 CHGS - - - - - - - where CHGS is Command Code ■ 1 FLGS1 Bits The bq2014H status registers are listed in Table 8 and described below. All registers are Read/Write in the bq2014H. Caution: When writing to bq2014H registers ensure that proper data are written. A write-verify read is recommended.

The lower 7-bit field of the command code contains the address portion of the register to be accessed: bq2014H Command Code and Registers ■ 0 0 Either discharge activity detected or VSRO ≤ VSRQ 1 VSRO > VSRQ The battery replaced flag (BRP) is asserted whenever the bq2014H is reset either by application of VCC or by a serial port command. BRP is reset when either a valid charge action increments NAC to be equal to LMD, or a valid charge action is detected after the EDV1 flag is asserted. BRP = 1 signifies that the device has been reset.

The CI flag is asserted on the 64th charge after the last LMD update or when the bq2014H is reset. The flag is cleared after an LMD update. FLGS1 Bits 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 - - - - - - EDV1 - where EDV1 is The CI values are FLGS1 Bits 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 - - - CI - - - - 0 When LMD is updated with a valid full discharge 1 After the 64th valid charge action with no LMD updates or the bq2014H is reset 0 Valid charge action detected, VSB ≥ VTS 1 VSB < VTS providing that the discharge rate is < 2C (OVLD not set) The final end-of-discharge warning flag (EDVF) flag is used to warn that battery power is at a failure condition. All segment drivers are turned off. The EDVF flag is latched until a valid charge has been detected. The EDVF threshold is set 25mV below the EDV1 threshold. where CI is The EDVF values are FLGS1 Bits The valid discharge flag (VDQ) is asserted when the bq2014H is discharged from NAC = 0.94 ∗ LMD. The flag remains set until either LMD is updated or one of three actions that can clear VDQ occurs: ■ 7 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 - - - - - - - EDVF where EDVF is When NAC has been reduced by more than 6.25% because of self-discharge since VDQ was set. ■ A valid charge action is sustained at VSRO > VSRQ for at least 2 NAC updates. ■ The EDV1 flag was set at a temperature below 0°C 0 Valid charge action detected, VSB ≥ (VTS - 25mV) 1 VSB < (VTS -25mV) providing the discharge rate is < 2C Temperature Register (TMP) The VDQ values are The TMP register (address=02h) contains the battery temperature. FLGS1 Bits 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 - - - - VDQ - - - The bq2014H contains an internal temperature sensor. The temperature is used to set charge and discharge efficiency factors as well as to adjust the self-discharge coefficient. The temperature register contents may be translated as shown in Table 9. where VDQ is 0 Self-discharge of more than 6.25% of NAC, valid charge action detected, EDV1 asserted with the temperature less than 0°C, or reset 1 On first discharge after NAC ≥ 0.94 ∗ LMD TMP Temperature Bits 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 - - - - TMP3 TMP2 TMP1 TMP0 The first end-of-discharge warning flag (EDV1) warns the user that the battery is almost empty. The first segment pin, SEG1, is modulated at a 4Hz rate if the display is enabled once EDV1 is asserted, which should warn the user that loss of battery power is imminent. The EDV1 flag is latched until a valid charge has been detected. The EDV1 threshold is externally controlled via the VTS register (see Voltage Threshold Register). The bq2014H calculates the gas gauge bits, GG3-GG0 as a function of CACT and LMD. The results of the calculation give available capacity in 1 16 increments from 0 to 15 16.

Bit 7 and bit 1 of FLGS2 are reserved. Do not write to these bits. The discharge rate flags, DR2–0, are bits 6–4. 7 - 6 DR2 FLGS2 Bits 5 4 3 DR1 DR0 - 2 - 1 - 0 They are used to determine the current discharge regime as follows: DR2 0 0 0 DR1 0 0 1 DR0 0 1 0 Discharge Rate DRATE < 0.5C 0.5C ≤ DRATE < 2C 2C < DRATE The enable interrupt flag (ENINT) is a test bit used to determine VSR activity sensed by the bq2014H. The state of this bit will vary and should be ignored by the system. Nominal Available Capacity Registers (NACH/NACL) The NACH high-byte register (address=03h) and the NACL low-byte register (address=17h) are the main gas gauging registers for the bq2014H. The NAC registers are incremented during charge actions and decremented during discharge and self-discharge actions. NACH and NACL are set to 0 during a bq2014H reset. 7 - 6 - 5 - FLGS2 Bits 4 3 ENINT 2 - 1 - 0 The valid charge flag (VQ), bit 2 of FLGS2, is used to indicate whether the bq2014H recognizes a valid charge condition. This bit is reset on the first discharge after NAC = LMD. Writing to the NAC registers affects the available charge counts and, therefore, affects the bq2014H gas gauge operation. Do not write the NAC registers to a value greater than LMD. The VQ values are Battery Identification Register (BATID) The BATID register (address=04h) is available for use by the system to determine the type of battery pack. The BATID contents are retained as long as VRBI is greater than 2V. The contents of BATID have no effect on the operation of the bq2014H. There is no default setting for this register. 7 - 6 - 5 - FLGS2 Bits 4 3 - 2 VQ 1 - 0 where VQ is 0 Valid charge action not detected between a discharge from NAC = LMD and EDV1 1 Valid charge action detected Last Measured Discharge Register (LMD) LMD is the register (address=05h) that the bq2014H uses as a measured full reference. The bq2014H adjusts LMD based on the measured discharge capacity of the battery from full to empty. In this way the bq2014H updates the capacity of the battery. LMD is set to PFC during a bq2014H reset. The overload flag (OVLD) is asserted when a discharge rate in excess of 2C is detected. OVLD remains asserted as long as the condition persists and is cleared 0.5 seconds after the rate drops below 2C. The overload condition is used to stop sampling of the battery terminal characteristics for end-of-discharge determination. LMD is set to DCR upon the first valid charge after EDV is set if VDQ is set. 14 Preliminary bq2014H 7 - 6 - FLGS2 Bits 4 3 - 5 - 2 - 1 - Battery Voltage Register (VSB) 0 OVLD The battery voltage register is used to read the single-cell battery voltage on the SB pin. The VSB register (address = 0Bh) is updated approximately once per second with the present value of the battery voltage. VSB = 1.2V * (VSB/256). Program Pin Pull-Down Register (PPD) The PPD register (address=07h) contains some of the programming pin information for the bq2014H. The segment drivers, SEG1–5, have a corresponding PPD register location, PPD1–5. A given location is set if a pull-down resistor has been detected on its corresponding segment driver. For example, if SEG1 and SEG4 have pull-down resistors, the contents of PPD are xxx01001. VSB Register Bits 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 VSB7 VSB6 VSB5 VSB4 VSB3 VSB2 VSB1 VSB0 Voltage Threshold Register (VTS) Program Pin Pull-Up Register (PPU) The end-of-discharge threshold voltages (EDV1 and EDVF) can be set using the VTS register (address = 0Ch). The VTS register sets the EDV1 trip point. EDVF is set 25mV below EDV1. The default value in the VTS register is A2h, representing EDV1 = 0.76V and EDVF = 0.735V. EDV1 = 1.2V * (VTS/256). The PPU register (address=08h) contains the rest of the programming pin information for the bq2014H. The segment drivers, SEG1–5, have a corresponding PPU register location, PPU1–5. A given location is set if a pull-up resistor has been detected on its corresponding segment driver. For example, if SEG3 and SEG5 have pull-up resistors, the contents of PPU are xxx10100. VTS Register Bits 7 PPD/PPU Bits 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 VTS7 VTS6 VTS5 VTS4 VTS3 VTS2 VTS1 VTS0 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Compensated Available Charge Registers (CACT/CACD) RSVD RSVD RSVD PPU5 PPU4 PPU3 PPU2 PPU1 RSVD RSVD RSVD PPD5 PPD4 PPD3 PPD2 PPD1 The CACD register (address = 0Eh) contains the NAC value compensated for discharge rate. This is a monotonicly decreasing value during discharge. If the discharge rate is > 2C then this value is lower than NAC. CACD is updated only when the discharge rate compensated NAC value is a lower value than CACD during discharge. During charge, CACD is continuously updated with the NAC value. Capacity Inaccurate Count Register (CPI) The CPI register (address=09h) is used to indicate the number of times a battery has been charged without an LMD update. Because the capacity of a rechargeable battery varies with age and operating conditions, the bq2014H adapts to the changing capacity over time. A complete discharge from full (NAC ≥ 0.94 ∗ LMD) to empty (EDV1=1) is required to perform an LMD update assuming there have been no intervening valid charges, the temperature is greater than or equal to 0°C, and there has been no more than a 6% self-discharge reduction. The CACT register (address = 0Dh) contains the CACD value compensated for temperature. CACT will contain a value lower than CACD when the battery temperature is below 10°C. The CACT value is also used in calculating the LED display pattern. Scaled Available Energy Registers (SAEH/SAEL) The CPI register is incremented every time a valid charge is detected. When NAC ≥ 0.94 * LMD, however, the CPI register increments on the first valid charge; CPI does not increment again for a valid charge until NAC < 0.94 * LMD. This prevents continuous trickle charging from incrementing CPI if self-discharge decrements NAC. The CPI register increments to 255 without rolling over. When the contents of CPI are incremented to 64, the capacity inaccurate flag, CI, is asserted in the FLGS1 register. The CPI register is reset whenever an update of the LMD register is performed, and the CI flag is also cleared. The SAEH high-byte register (address = 0Fh) and the SAEL low-byte register (address = 10h) are used to scale battery voltage and CACT to a value that can be translated to watt-hours remaining under the present conditions. Relative CAC Register (RCAC) The RCAC register (address = 11h) provides the relative battery state-of-charge by dividing CACT by LMD. 15 bq2014H Preliminary Voltage Offset (VOS) Interrupt (INTSS) RCAC varies from 0 to 64h representing relative stateof-charge from 0 to 100%. The INTSS register (address = 38h) is useful during intial characterization of bq2014H designs. When the bq2014H counts a charge pulse, CHGI (bit 0) will be set to 1. When the bq2014H counts a discharge pulse, DCHGI (bit 3) will be set to 1. All other locations in the INTSS register are reserved. Current Scale Register (VSRH/VSRL) The VSRH register (address = 12h) and the VSRL register (address = 13h) report the average signal across the SR and VSS pins. The bq2050H updates this register pair every 22.5s. VSRH (high-byte) and VSRL (low-byte) form a 16-bit signed integer value representing the average current during this time. The battery pack current can be calculated from: Display The bq2014H can directly display capacity information using low-power LEDs. If LEDs are used, the program pins should be resistively tied to VCC or VSS for a program high or program low, respectively. |I(mA)| = (VSRH ∗ 256 + VSRL)/(8 ∗RS) where: The bq2014H displays the battery charge state in relative mode. In relative mode, the battery charge is represented as a percentage of the LMD. Each LED segment represents 20% of the LMD. RS = sense resistor value in Ω. VSRH = high-byte value of battery current VSRL = low-byte value of battery current The bq2014H indicates an average discharge current with a “1” in the MSB position of the VSRH register. To calculate discharge current, use the 2’s complement if the concatenated register contents in the above equation. The capacity display is also adjusted for the present battery temperature and discharge rate. The temperature adjustment reflects the available capacity at a given temperature but does not affect the NAC register. The temperature adjustments are detailed in the CACT and CACD register descriptions. Discharge Count Register (DCR) When DISP is tied to VCC, the SEG1–5 outputs are inactive. When DISP is left floating, the display becomes active whenever the bq2014H detects a charge in progress VSRO > VSRQ. When pulled low, the segment outputs become active for a period of four seconds, ± 0.5 seconds. The DCR register (address = 18h) stores the high-byte of the discharge count. DCR is reset to zero at the start of a valid discharge cycle and can count to a maximum of FFh. DCR will not increment if EDV1 = 1 and will not roll over from FFh. The segment outputs are modulated as two banks, with segments 1, 3, and 5 alternating with segments 2 and 4. The segment outputs are modulated at approximately 100Hz with each segment bank active for 30% of the period. Program Pin Full Count (PPFC) The PPFC register contains information concerning the program pin configuration. This information is used to determine the data integrity of the bq2014H. The only approved user application for this register is to write a zero to this register as part of a reset request. SEG1 blinks at a 4Hz rate whenever VSB has been detected to be below VEDV1 (EDV1 = 1), indicating a lowbattery condition. VSB below VEDVF (EDVF = 1) disables the display output. The recommended reset method for the bq2014H is ■ Write PPFC to zero ■ Write LMD to zero Microregulator A micropower source for the bq2014H can be inexpensively built using a FET and an external resistor. (See Figure 1.) After these operations, a software reset will occur. Resetting the bq2014H sets the following: ■ LMD = PFC ■ CPI, VDQ, RCAC, NACH/L, CACH/L, SAEH/L, NMCV = 0 ■ CI and BRP = 1 16 Preliminary bq2014H Absolute Maximum Ratings Symbol Parameter Minimum Maximum Unit Notes VCC Relative to VSS -0.3 +7.0 V All other pins Relative to VSS -0.3 +7.0 V REF Relative to VSS -0.3 +8.5 V Current limited by R1 (see Figure 1) VSR Relative to VSS -0.3 Vcc+0.7 V 100kΩ series resistor should be used to protect SR in case of a shorted battery.
