A high accuracy voltage, current, and temperature measurement accuracy provides data for host-based algorithms and control.
  • Page 32: Functional Block Diagram

    8.3 Functional Block Diagram 8.4 Diagnostics The BQ76942 device includes a suite of diagnostic tests which can be used by the system to improve robustness of operation. These include comparisons between the two voltage references integrated within the device, a hardware monitor of the LFO frequency, memory checks at power-up or reset, an internal watchdog on the embedded processor, and more.
  • Page 33: Device Configuration

    Manual. 9.2 Configuration Using OTP or Registers The BQ76942 device includes registers, with values which are stored in the RAM and can be loaded automatically from one-time programmable (OTP) memory. At initial power-up, the device loads OTP settings into registers, which are used by the device firmware during operation. The recommended procedure is for the customer to write settings into OTP on the manufacturing line, in which case the device will use these settings whenever it is powered up.

    ADC is effectively 1.6667 × VREF1, which is approximately 2.02 V during normal operation. The BQ76942 device also reports the raw ADC counts when a measurement is taken using the TS1 pin. This data can be used during manufacturing to better calibrate the ADCIN functionality.
  • Page 37: Synchronized Voltage And Current Measurement

    10.5 Internal Temperature Measurement The BQ76942 device integrates the capability to measure its internal die temperature by digitizing the difference in internal transistor base-emitter voltages (deltaV ). This voltage is measured periodically as part of the measurement loop and is processed to provide a reported temperature value available through the digital communications interface.
  • Page 38: Factory Trim Of Voltage Adc

    10.7 Factory Trim of Voltage ADC The BQ76942 device includes factory trim for the cell voltage ADC measurements in order to optimize the voltage measurement performance even if no further calibration is performed by the customer. Calibration can be performed by the customer on the production line to further optimize the performance in the system.
  • Page 39: Voltage Calibration (Cov And Cuv Protections)

    SLUSE14B – DECEMBER 2020 – REVISED DECEMBER 2021 If values for the calibration gain configuration are not written, the BQ76942 device uses factory trim or default values for the respective gain values. When a calibration gain configuration value is written, the device uses that in place of any factory trim or default gain.

    SLUSE14B – DECEMBER 2020 – REVISED DECEMBER 2021 10.10 Current Calibration The BQ76942 device coulomb counter ADC measures the differential voltage between the SRP and SRN pins to calculate the system current. The device includes the optional capability for the customer to calibrate the coulomb counter offset and current gain on the production line.

    FETs, excessive cell voltage imbalance, internal memory faults, and internal diagnostic failures. When a Permanent Fail occurs, the BQ76942 device can be configured either to simply provide a flag, to indefinitely disable the protection FETs, or to assert the FUSE pin to permanently disable the pack. The FUSE pin can be used to blow an in-line fuse and can monitor if a separate secondary protector IC has attempted to blow the fuse.

    Top of Stack Versus Cell Sum Permanent Fail 11.4 High-Side NFET Drivers The BQ76942 device includes an integrated charge pump and high-side NFET drivers for driving CHG and DSG protection FETs. The charge pump uses an external capacitor connected between the BAT and CP1 pins that is charged to an overdrive voltage when the charge pump is enabled.

Several of the pins can be used as active-high outputs with configurable output level.
  • Page 47: Rst_Shut Pin Operation

    SLUSE14B – DECEMBER 2020 – REVISED DECEMBER 2021 12.6 RST_SHUT Pin Operation The RST_SHUT pin provides a simple way to reset or shutdown the BQ76942 device without needing to use serial bus communication. During normal operation, the RST_SHUT pin should be driven low. When the pin is driven high, the device will immediately reset most of the digital logic, including that associated with the serial communications bus.
  • Page 48: Fuse Drive

    12.10 Fuse Drive The FUSE pin on the BQ76942 device can be used to blow a chemical fuse in the presence of a permanent fail (PF), as well as to detect if an external secondary protector in the system has detected a fault and is attempting to blow the fuse itself.

    DEEPSLEEP mode, there is no new information available for readout. 13.5 SHUTDOWN Mode SHUTDOWN mode is the lowest power mode of the BQ76942 device, 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, the protection FETs are all disabled, so no voltage is provided at the battery pack terminals.
  • Page 52: Config_Update Mode

    SLUSE14B – DECEMBER 2020 – REVISED DECEMBER 2021 While the BQ76942 device is in NORMAL mode or SLEEP mode, the device can also be configured to enter SHUTDOWN mode if the internal temperature measurement exceeds a programmed temperature threshold for a programmed delay.
