4 Description (continued)

The BQ41Z50 device utilizes Dynamic Z-Track™ technology to report highly accurate state of charge even under dynamic loading conditions. This technology also improves the accuracy of TURBO mode by providing the available max power and max current to the host system.

The BQ41Z50 device provides an array of battery safety functions including overvoltage, overtemperature, overcurrent in discharge, overcurrent in charge, and short circuit in discharge protections. System safety functions incorporate FET protection for the N-CH FETs and cell disconnection detection. The device firmware provides software-based 1st- and 2nd-level safety protection against overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, short circuit current overtemperature conditions. Pack- and cell-related faults are also handled by firmware-based protections.

Additional BQ41Z50 features:

  • Extensive array of programmable protection
  • Four GPIOs that can be configured to control a 3-segment LED display or as general-purpose push-pull I/O pins capable of 5.5V maximum pull-up voltage
  • Two GPIOs that can be general-purpose push-pull I/O with one that can be a PWM output
  • One GPIO that can be general-purpose open drain I/O
  • Integrated secondary chemical fuse I/O
  • Cell balancing support up to 25mA bypass per cell
  • Elliptical curve cryptography (ECC) authentication for robust battery pack security:
    • Eliminates the need for a shared key on host-side controller
    • 233-bit private key stored in secure memory (no access from program flash)
    • Integrated hardware accelerator for faster authentication process
  • SHA-1 and SHA-2 authentication support
