8 Detailed Description

8.1 Overview

The bq3050 measures the voltage, temperature, and current to determine battery capacity and state-of-charge (SOC). The bq3050 monitors charge and discharge activity by sensing the voltage across a small value resistor (5 mΩ to 20 mΩ, typical) between the SRP and SRN pins and in series with the battery. By integrating charge passing through the battery, the battery’s SOC is adjusted during battery charge or discharge. Measurements of OCV and charge integration determine chemical SOC.

The Qmax values are taken from a cell manufacturers' data sheet multiplied by the number of parallel cells, and is also used for the value in Design Capacity. It uses the OCV and Qmax value to determine StateOfCharge() on battery insertion, device reset, or on command. The FullChargeCapacity() is reported as the learned capacity available from full charge until Voltage() reaches the EDV0 threshold. As Voltage() falls below the Shutdown Voltage for Shutdown Time and has been out of SHUTDOWN mode for at least Shutdown Time, the PF Flags1 () [VSHUT] bit is set. For additional details, see bq3050 Technical Reference Manual (SLUU485).

Fuel gauging is derived from the Compensated End of Discharge Voltage (CEDV) method, which uses a mathematical model to correlate remaining state of charge (RSOC) and voltage near to the end of discharge state. This requires a full-discharge cycle for a single-point FCC update. The implementation models cell voltage (OCV) as a function of battery SOC, temperature, and current. The impedance is also a function of SOC and temperature, which can be satisfied by using seven parameters: EMF, C0, R0, T0, R1, TC, and C1.

8.3 Feature Description

8.3.1 Primary (1st Level) Safety Features

The bq3050 supports a wide range of battery and system protection features that can easily be configured. The primary safety features include:

  • Cell Overvoltage/Undervoltage Protection
  • Charge and Discharge Overcurrent
  • Short-Circuit
  • Charge and Discharge Over-Temperature
  • AFE Watchdog

8.3.2 Secondary (2nd Level) Safety Features

The secondary safety features of the bq3050 can be used to indicate more serious faults via the FUSE pin. This pin can be used to blow an in-line fuse to permanently disable the battery pack from charging or discharging. The secondary safety protection features include:

  • Safety Overvoltage
  • Safety Overcurrent in Charge and Discharge
  • Safety Overtemperature in Charge and Discharge
  • Charge FET, Discharge FET, and Precharge FET Faults
  • Cell Imbalance Detection
  • Fuse Blow by Secondary Voltage Protection IC
  • AFE Register Integrity Fault (AFE_P)
  • AFE Communication Fault (AFE_C)

8.3.3 Charge Control Features

The bq3050 charge control features include:

  • Supports JEITA temperature ranges. Reports charging voltage and charging current according to the active temperature range
  • Handles more complex charging profiles. Allows for splitting the standard temperature range into two sub-ranges and allows for varying the charging current according to the cell voltage
  • Reports the appropriate charging current needed for constant current charging and the appropriate charging voltage needed for constant voltage charging to a smart charger using SMBus broadcasts
  • Reduce the charge difference of the battery cells in fully charged state of the battery pack gradually using a voltage-based cell balancing algorithm during charging. A voltage threshold can be set up for cell balancing to be active. This prevents fully charged cells from overcharging and causing excessive degradation and also increases the usable pack energy by preventing premature charge termination.
  • Supports pre-charging/zero-volt charging
  • Supports charge inhibit and charge suspend if battery pack temperature is out of temperature range
  • Reports charging fault and also indicate charge status via charge and discharge alarms

8.3.4 Gas Gauging

The bq3050 uses the CEDV algorithm to measure and calculate the available capacity in battery cells. The bq3050 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 bq3050 estimates self-discharge of the battery and also adjusts the self-discharge estimation based on temperature. See the bq3050 Technical Reference Manual (SLUU485) for further details.

8.3.5 Lifetime Data Logging Features

The bq3050 offers limited lifetime data logging for the following critical battery parameters:

  • Lifetime Maximum Temperature
  • Lifetime Minimum Temperature
  • Lifetime Maximum Battery Cell Voltage
  • Lifetime Minimum Battery Cell Voltage

8.3.6 Authentication

  • The bq3050 supports authentication by the host using SHA-1.
  • SHA-1 authentication by the gas gauge is required for unsealing and full access.

8.4 Device Functional Modes

The bq3050 supports three power modes to reduce power consumption:

  • In NORMAL Mode, the bq3050 performs measurements, calculations, protection decisions, and data updates in 0.25-s intervals. Between these intervals, the bq3050 is in a reduced power stage.
  • In SLEEP Mode, the bq3050 performs measurements, calculations, protection decisions, and data updates in adjustable time intervals. Between these intervals, the bq3050 is in a reduced power stage. The bq3050 has a wake function that enables exit from Sleep mode when current flow or failure is detected.
  • In SHUTDOWN Mode, the bq3050 is completely disabled.

8.5 Configuration

8.5.1 Oscillator Function

The bq3050 fully integrates the system oscillators and does not require any external components to support this feature.

8.5.2 System Present Operation

The bq3050 checks the PRES pin periodically (1 s). If PRES input is pulled to ground by the external system, the bq3050 detects this as system present.

8.5.3 2-, 3-, or 4-Cell Configuration

In a 2-cell configuration, VC1 is shorted to VC2 and VC3. In a 3-cell configuration, VC1 is shorted to VC2.

8.5.4 Cell Balancing

The device supports cell balancing by bypassing the current of each cell during charging or at rest. If the device's internal bypass is used, up to 10 mA can be bypassed and multiple cells can be bypassed at the same time. Higher cell balance current can be achieved by using an external cell balancing circuit. In external cell balancing mode, only one cell at a time can be balanced.

The cell balancing algorithm determines the amount of charge needed to be bypassed to balance the capacity of all cells.

8.5.4.1 Internal Cell Balancing

When internal cell balancing is configured, the cell balance current is defined by the external resistor RVC at the VCx input. See Figure 4.

8.5.4.2 External Cell Balancing

When external cell balancing is configured, the cell balance current is defined by RB. See Figure 5. Only one cell at a time can be balanced.

8.6 Battery Parameter Measurements

8.6.1 Charge and Discharge Counting

The bq3050 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 SR1 and SR2 pins. The integrating ADC measures bipolar signals from –0.25 V to 0.25 V. The bq3050 detects charge activity when VSR = V(SRP) – V(SRN) is positive, and discharge activity when VSR = V(SRP) – V(SRN) is negative. The bq3050 continuously integrates the signal over time, using an internal counter. The fundamental rate of the counter is 0.65 nVh.

8.6.2 Voltage

The bq3050 updates the individual series cell voltages at 0.25-second intervals. The internal ADC of the bq3050 measures the voltage, and scales and calibrates it appropriately. This data is also used to calculate the impedance of the cell for the CEDV gas-gauging.

8.6.3 Current

The bq3050 uses the SRP and SRN inputs to measure and calculate the battery charge and discharge current using a 5-mΩ to 20-mΩ typ. sense resistor.

8.6.4 Auto Calibration

The bq3050 provides an auto-calibration feature to cancel the voltage offset error across SRN and SRP for maximum charge measurement accuracy. The bq3050 performs auto-calibration when the SMBus lines stay low continuously for a minimum of 5 s.

8.6.5 Temperature

The bq3050 has an internal temperature sensor and inputs for two external temperature sensors. All three temperature sensor options are individually enabled and configured for cell or FET temperature. Two configurable thermistor models are provided to allow the monitoring of cell temperature in addition to FET temperature, which may be of a higher temperature type.

8.6.6 Communications

The bq3050 uses SMBus v1.1 with Master Mode and packet error checking (PEC) options per the SBS specification.

8.6.6.1 SMBus On and Off State

The bq3050 detects an SMBus off state when SMBC and SMBD are low for two or more seconds. Clearing this state requires that either SMBC or SMBD transition high. The communication bus will resume activity within 1 ms.

8.6.6.2 SBS Commands

See the bq3050 Technical Reference Manual(SLUU485) for further details.
