The DS2761 high-precision Li+ battery monitor is a data-acquisition, information-storage, and safety-protection device tailored for cost-sensitive battery pack applications. This low-power device integrates precise temperature, voltage, and current measurement, nonvolatile (NV) data storage, and Li+ protection into the small footprint of either a TSSOP package or flip-chip package. The DS2761 is a key component in applications including remaining capacity estimation, safety monitoring, and battery-specific data storage.

Through its 1-Wire® interface, the DS2761 gives the host system read/write access to status and control registers, instrumentation registers, and general-purpose data storage. Each device has a unique factory-programmed 64-bit net address that allows it to be individually addressed by the host system, supporting multibattery operation.

The DS2761 is capable of performing temperature, voltage, and current measurement to a resolution sufficient to support process monitoring applications such as battery charge control, remaining capacity estimation, and safety monitoring. Temperature is measured using an on-chip sensor, eliminating the need for a separate thermistor. Bidirectional current measurement and accumulation are accomplished using either an internal 25mΩ sense resistor or an external device. The DS2761 also features a programmable I/O pin that allows the host system to sense and control other electronics in the pack, including switches, vibration motors, speakers, and LEDs.

Three types of memory are provided on the DS2761 for battery information storage: EEPROM, lockable EEPROM, and SRAM. EEPROM memory saves important battery data in true NV memory that is unaffected by severe battery depletion, accidental shorts, or ESD events. Lockable EEPROM becomes ROM when locked to provide additional security for unchanging battery data. SRAM provides inexpensive storage for temporary data.

Product Detail

The DS2761K evaluation kit makes performance evaluation, software development, and prototyping with the DS2761 Li+ battery monitor easy. The evaluation board interfaces to an IBM®-compatible PC through a DS9123 serial port adapter and RJ-11 cable connection. The provided CD-ROM contains all related data sheets along with the evaluation software, which can be run under Windows® 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT.

The DS2761K evaluation software gives the user complete control of all functions of the DS2761. Separate control tabs allow the user access to all EEPROM and RAM memory locations, all control registers, and real-time updates of all monitored parameters. The software also incorporates a data logging feature to monitor a cell over time and fuel gauging algorithms to improve remaining capacity calculations based on specific cell characteristics.

The evaluation board circuit is designed to provide the DS2761 with accurate parameter measurements, allow the DS2761 to disable charging or discharging, and protect the DS2761 from ESD damage. Kit demonstration boards will vary as they are improved upon over time. For information on the demonstration board circuits refer to the DOCS browser page when auto running from the DS2761K CD-ROM or inside the documentation directory on the DS2761K CD-ROM.
