SLUSCS4C June 2017 – April 2021 BQ40Z50-R2
PRODUCTION DATA
The BQ40Z50-R2 uses an integrating delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for current measurement, and a second delta-sigma ADC for individual cell and battery voltage and temperature measurement.
The integrating delta-sigma ADC measures the charge/discharge flow of the battery by measuring the voltage drop across a small-value sense resistor between the SRP and SRN terminals. The integrating ADC measures bipolar signals from –0.1 V to 0.1 V. The BQ40Z50-R2 detects charge activity when VSR = V(SRP) – V(SRN) is positive, and discharge activity when VSR = V(SRP) – V(SRN) is negative. The BQ40Z50-R2 continuously integrates the signal over time, using an internal counter. The fundamental rate of the counter is 0.26 nVh.
