Texas Instruments bq3050EVM User Manual

bq3050EVM SBS 1.1 Compliant Advanced Gas Gauge
The bq3050EVM is a complete evaluation system for the bq3050/bq29440 battery management system.
This system includes one bq3050/bq29440 circuit module, a current sense resistor, four thermistors, and a
®
link to Windows -based PC software.
The circuit module includes one bq3050 IC, one bq29440 IC, and all other onboard components
necessary to monitor and predict capacity, perform cell balancing, monitor critical parameters, protect the
cells from overcharge, overdischarge, short circuit, and overcurrent in 2-series, 3-series, or 4-series cell
Li-Ion or Li-Polymer battery packs. The circuit module connects directly across the cells in a battery.
With the EV2300 interface board and software, users can read the bq3050 data registers, program the
chipset for different pack configurations, log cycling data for further evaluation, and evaluate the overall
functionality of the bq3050/bq29440 solution under different charge and discharge conditions.
