SLUSBS8B December 2013 – November 2019 BQ40Z50
PRODUCTION DATA.
The BQ40Z50 uses the Impedance Track algorithm to measure and calculate the available capacity in battery cells. The BQ40Z50 accumulates a measure of charge and discharge currents and compensates the charge current measurement for the temperature and state-of-charge of the battery. The BQ40Z50 estimates self-discharge of the battery and also adjusts the self-discharge estimation based on temperature. The device also has TURBO BOOST mode support, which enables the BQ40Z50 to provide the necessary data for the MCU to determine what level of peak power consumption can be applied without causing a system reset or transient battery voltage level spike to trigger termination flags. See the BQ40Z50 Technical Reference Manual (SLUUA43) for further details.
