DESCRIPTION
The
LTC
2949
is a high precision current, voltage, tem-
®
perature, charge and energy meter for electrical and hybrid
vehicles and other isolated current sense applications. It
infers charge and energy flowing in and out of the battery
pack by monitoring simultaneously the voltage drop over
up to two sense resistors and the battery pack voltage.
Low offset ΔΣ ADCs ensure accurate measurement of
voltage and current with insignificant power loss. Con-
tinuous integration of current and power ensures lossless
tracking of charge and energy delivered or received by
the battery pack.
The built-in serial interface can be configured to support
isolated isoSPI communication to the host or as SPI
interface.
The LTC2949 features 12 internally buffered high imped-
ance inputs (V1 to V12) for measuring voltages from
external sensors or resistor dividers allowing to measure
temperatures, HV-Link voltages, chassis isolation and
supervise contactor states. LTC2949 has up to five pro-
grammable digital outputs which can be set to ground,
supply or toggling at 400kHz.
Programmable threshold and tracking registers reduce
digital traffic to the host.
