BQ769142
SLUSE91A – SEPTEMBER 2020 – REVISED FEBRUARY 2021
based on current flow, the device will quickly enable the FETs (if the CHG FET was off, or the DSG FET was in
source follower mode), but the standard measurement loop is not restarted until the next 1-s boundary occurs
within the device timing. Therefore, new data may not be available for up to ≈1 second after the device exits
SLEEP mode.
The coulomb counter ADC operates in a reduced power and speed mode to monitor current during SLEEP
mode. The current is measured every 12 ms and, if it exceeds a programmable threshold in magnitude, the
device quickly transitions back to NORMAL mode. In addition to this check, if the CC1 Current measurement
taken at each programmed interval exceeds this threshold, the device will exit SLEEP mode.
The device monitors the PACK pin voltage and the top-of-stack voltage at each programmed measurement
interval. If the PACK pin voltage is higher than the top-of-stack voltage by more than a programmable delta and
the top-of-stack voltage is less than a programmed threshold, the device will exit SLEEP mode. The BQ769142
device also includes a hysteresis on the SLEEP mode entrance, in order to avoid the device quickly entering and
exiting SLEEP mode based on a dynamic load. After transitioning to NORMAL mode, the device will not enter
SLEEP mode again for a number of seconds given by the hysteresis setting.
During SLEEP mode, the DSG FET can be driven either using the charge pump or in source-follower mode, as
described in
Section
11.4. The CHG FET can be disabled or driven using the charge pump, based on the
configuration setting.
13.4 DEEPSLEEP Mode
The BQ769142 device integrates a DEEPSLEEP mode, which is a low power mode that allows the REG1 and
REG2 LDOs to remain powered, but disables other subsystems. In this mode, the protection FETs are all
disabled, so no voltage is provided at the battery pack terminals. All protections are disabled, and all voltage,
current, and temperature measurements are disabled.
DEEPSLEEP mode can be entered by sending a subcommand over the serial communications interface. The
device exits DEEPSLEEP mode and returns to NORMAL mode if directed by a subcommand, if the RST_SHUT
pin is asserted for less than 1 second, or if a charger is attached (which is detected by the voltage on the LD pin

device transitions to SHUTDOWN mode.
When the device exits DEEPSLEEP mode, it first completes a full measurement loop and evaluates conditions
relative to enabled protections, to ensure that conditions are acceptable to proceed to NORMAL mode. This may
take ≈250 ms plus the time for the measurement loop to complete.
The REG1 and REG2 LDOs will maintain their power state when entering DEEPSLEEP mode based on the
configuration setting. The device also provides the ability to keep the LFO running while in DEEPSLEEP mode,
which allows for a faster responsiveness to communications and transition back to NORMAL mode, but will
consume additional power.
Other than sending a subcommand to exit DEEPSLEEP mode, communications with the device over the serial
interface will not cause it to exit DEEPSLEEP mode. However, since no measurements are taken while in
DEEPSLEEP mode, there is no new information available for readout.
13.5 SHUTDOWN Mode
SHUTDOWN mode is the lowest power mode of the BQ769142, which can be used for shipping or long-term
storage. In this mode, the device loses all register state information, the internal logic is powered down, and the
protection FETs are all disabled, so no voltage is provided at the battery pack terminals. All protections are
disabled, all voltage, current, and temperature measurements are disabled, and no communications are
supported. When the device exits SHUTDOWN, it boots and reads parameters stored in OTP (if that has been
written). If the OTP has not been written, the device powers up with default settings, and then settings can be
changed by the host writing device registers.
Entering SHUTDOWN mode involves a sequence of steps. The sequence can be initiated manually through the
serial communications interface. The device can also be configured to enter SHUTDOWN mode automatically
based on the top of stack voltage or the minimum cell voltage. If the top-of-stack voltage falls below a
programmed stack voltage threshold, or if the minimum cell voltage falls below a programmed cell voltage

to exceed it). In addition, if the BAT pin voltage falls below V
