SLUS546E MARCH 2003 REVISED MARCH 2005
These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the deviceplaced in conductive foam during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.
The communications interface allows the host to observe and control the current status of the bq29312. Itenables cell balancing, enters different power modes, sets overload levels, sets the overload blanking delay time,sets short-circuit threshold levels for charge and discharge, and sets the short-circuit blanking delay time.
Cell balancing of each cell is performed via a cell bypass path, which is enabled via the internal control registeraccessible via the I
2
C compatible interface. The maximum bypass current is set via an external series resistorand internal FET on resistance (typical 400 ).

bq29312
SLUS546E MARCH 2003 REVISED MARCH 2005
The inputs for this regulator can be derived from the battery cell stack (BAT) or the pack positive terminal(PACK). The output is typically 3.3 V with the minimum output capacitance for stable operation is 4.7 µF and isalso internally current limited. During normal operation, the regulator limits output current to typically 50 mA.
The bq29312 internal control circuit is powered by the REG voltage, which it also monitors. When the voltage atREG falls below 2.3 V, the internal circuit turns off the FETs and disables all controllable functions, including theREG and TOUT outputs. REG does not start up unless a voltage above V
(STARTUP)
is supplied to the PACKterminal. After the regulator has started, based on PACK voltage, it keeps operating through the BAT input, evenif the PACK voltage is removed. If the BAT input is below the minimum operating range, then the bq29312 doesnot operate if the supply to the PACK input is removed. After start up, when the REG voltage is above 2.4 V, thebq29312 is in Normal mode.
The initial state of the CHG output depends on the PMS input. If PMS = PACK then CHG = ON however, if PMS= GND then CHG = OFF.
The overload detection is used to detect abnormal currents in the discharge direction. This feature is used toprotect the pass FETs, cells and any other inline components from excessive current conditions. The detectioncircuit also incorporates a blanking delay before driving the control for the pass FETs to the OFF state. Theoverload sense voltage is set in the OLV register, and delay time is set in the OLT register. The overloadthreshold can be programmed from 50 mV to 205 mV in 5-mV steps with the default being 50 mV and hysteresisof 10 mV.
The short current circuit detection is used to detect abnormal current in either the charge or discharge direction.This safety feature is used to protect the pass FETs, cells, and any other inline components from excessivecurrent conditions. The detection circuit also incorporates a blanking delay before driving the control for the passFETs to the OFF state. The short- circuit thresholds and delay time are set in the SCC and SCD registersrespectively where SCC is for charging and SCD is for discharge. The short-circuit threshold can be programmedfrom 100 mV to 475 mV in 25-mV steps with the default being 100 mV and hysteresis of 50 mV.
The overload delay (default =1 ms) allows the system to momentarily accept a high current condition withoutdisconnecting the supply to the load. The delay time can be increased via the OLT register, which can beprogrammed for a range of 1 ms to 31 ms with steps of 2 ms.
The short-circuit delay (default = 0 µs) is programmable in the SCC and SCD registers. This register can beprogrammed from 0 µs to 915 µs with steps of 61 µs.
When an overload or short-circuit fault is detected, the FETs are turned off. The STATUS (b0 b2) registerreports the details of short-circuit (charge), short-circuit (discharge), and overload. The respective STATUS(b0 b2) bits are set to 1 and the XALERT output is triggered. This condition is latched until the CONTROL (b0)is set and then reset. If a FET is turned on via resetting CONTROL (b0) and the error condition is still present onthe system, then the device reenters the protection response state.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION (continued)
The cell voltage is translated to allow a system host to measure individual series elements of the battery. Theseries element voltage is translated to a GND-based voltage equal to 0.15 ±0.002 of the series element voltage.This provides a range from 0 V to 4.5 V. The translation output is inversely proportional to the input using thefollowing equation.

Programming CELL_SEL (b1, b0) selects the individual series element. The CELL_SEL (b3, b2) selects thevoltage monitor mode, cell monitor, offset etc.
The cell voltage monitor amplifier has an offset and to increase accuracy this can be calibrated.

The cell balance control allows a small bypass path to be controlled for any one series element. The purpose ofthis bypass path is to reduce the current into any one cell during charging to bring the series elements to thesame voltage. Series resistors placed between the input pins and the positive series element nodes control thebypass current value. Individual series element selection is made using bits 4 through 7 of the CELL_SELregister.
The TOUT pin can be enabled to drive a thermistor from REG. The typical thermistor resistance is 10 k at25 °C. The default-state is OFF to conserve power. The maximum output impedance is 100 . TOUT is enabledin FUNCTION CTL Register (bit 5).
The open drain output has 1-mA current source drive with a maximum output voltage of 25 V. The OD output isenabled or disabled by OUTPUT CTL Register (bit 4) and has a default state of OFF.
XALERT is driven low when an OL or SC current fault is detected, if the SLEEP pin changes state or a watchdogfault occurs. To clear XALERT, toggle (from 0, set to 1 then reset to 0) OUTPUT CTL (bit 0), then read theSTATUS register.
When a current limit fault or watch dog timer fault occurs, the state is latched. To clear these faults, toggle (from0, set 1 then reset to 0) LTCLR in the OUTPUT CTL register (bit 0).
Figure 1 is the LTCLR and XALERT clear example after sensing short-circuit.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION (continued)
The WDI input is required as a time base for delay timing when determining overload and short-circuit delayperiods and is used as part of the system watchdog.
Initially the watchdog monitors the hosts oscillator start up, if there is no response from the host within 700 ms ofthe bq29312 reaching its minimum operating voltage, then the bq29312 turns both CHG, DSG and ZVCHG FETsOFF.
Once the watchdog has been started during this wake up period, it monitors the host for an oscillation stopcondition, which is defined as a period of 100 µs (typ) where no clock input is received. If an oscillator stopcondition is identified, then the watchdog turns the CHG, DSG and ZVCHG FETs OFF. When the host clockoscillation is started, WDF is released, but the flag is latched until LTCLR is toggled.
Figure 2. Watchdog Timing Chart—WDI Fault at Startup
Figure 3. Watchdog Timing Chart—WDI Fault After Startup
The bq29312 drives the DSG, CHG, and ZVCHG FET off if an OL or SC safety threshold is breached dependingon the current direction. The host can force any FET on or off only if the bq29312 integrated protection controlallows. The DSG and CHG FET drive gate-to-drain voltage is clamped to 15 V (typ).

bq29312
SLUS546E MARCH 2003 REVISED MARCH 2005
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION (continued)The default-state of the CHG and DSG FET drive is off, when PMS = GND. A host can control the FET drive byprogramming OUTPUT CTL (b3...b1) where b1 is used to control the discharge FET, b2 is used to control thecharge FET and b3 is used to control the ZVCHG FET. These controls are only valid when not in the initializedstate. The CHG drive FET can be powered by PACK and the DSG FET can be powered by BAT.
The bq29312 supports both a charger that has a precharge mode and one that does not. The bq29312 alsosupports charging even when the battery falls to 0 V. Detail is described in the application section.
The SLEEP input is pulled-up internally to REG. When SLEEP is pulled to REG, the bq29312 enters the SLEEPmode. The SLEEP mode disables all the FET outputs and the OL, SC and watchdog faults are also disabled.The RAM configuration is still valid on exit of the SLEEP mode. The host can force the bq29312 into SLEEPmode via register control also.

In order to charge, the charge FET (CHG-FET) must be turned on to create a current path. When the V
(BAT)
is 0V and CHG-FET = ON, the V
(PACK)
is as low as the battery voltage. In this case, the supply voltage for the deviceis too low to operate. There are 3 possible configurations for this function and the bq29312 can be easilyconfigured according to the application needs. The 3 modes are 0-V Charge FET Mode, Common FET Modeand Precharge FET Mode.1. 0-V Charge FET Mode Dedicates a precharge current path using an additional FET (ZVCHG-FET) tosustain the PACK+ voltage level. The host charger is expected to provide a precharge function.2. Common FET Mode Does not use a dedicated precharge FET. The charge FET (CHG-FET) is assured tobe set to ON state as default. The charger is expected to provide a precharge function.3. Precharge FET Mode Dedicates a precharge current path using an additional open drain (OD) pin driveFET (PCHG-FET) FET to sustain the PACK+ voltage level. The charger does not provide any prechargefunction.
In this mode, a dedicated precharge current path using an additional FET (ZVCHG-FET) is required to sustain asuitable PACK+ voltage level. The charger is expected to provide the precharge function in this mode where theprecharge current level is suitable to charge cells below a set level, typically below 3 V per cell. When the lowestcell voltage rises above this level, then a fast charging current is applied by the charger.
The circuit diagram for this method is shown in Figure 7 , showing how the additional FET is added in parallelwith the charge FET (CHG-FET).

Figure 8. Drain Current vs Drain-Source Voltage Characteristics
In the bq29312, the initial state is for CHG-FET = OFF and ZVCHG-FET = ON with the V
(ZVCHG)
clamped at 3.5 Vinitially. Then the charger applies a constant current and raises V
(PACK)
high enough to pass the prechargecurrent, point A. For example, if the V
(GS)
is 2 V at this point, V
(PACK)
is 3.5 V + 2 V = 5.5 V. Also, theZVCHG-FET is used in its MOS saturation region at this point so that V
(DS)
is expressed as follows:V
(PACK)

(BAT)
+ V
F
+ V
DS(ZVCHG-FET)
where V
(F)
= 0.7 V is the forward voltage of a DSG-FET back diode and is typically 0.7 V.
This derives the following equation:V
DS
= 4.8 V - V
(BAT)
As the battery is charged V
(BAT)
increases and the V
(DS)
voltage decreases reaching its linear region. Forexample: If the linear region is 0.2 V, this state continues until V
(BAT)
= 4.6 V, (4.8 V - 0.2 V).
As V
(BAT)
increases further, V
(PACK)
and the V
(GS)
voltage increase. But the V

remains at 0.2 V because theZVCHG-FET is driven in its MOS linear region, point B.V

As V

exceeds 7 V, V

/2. However, V
(ZVCHG)
is maintained to limit the voltage between PACKand ZVCHG at a maximum of 8 V(typ). This limitation is intended to avoid excessive voltage between the gateand the source of ZVCHG-FET.
The signal timing is shown in Figure 10 . When precharge begins (V
(BAT)
= 0 V) V
(PACK)
is clamped to 3.5 V andholds the supply voltage for bq29312 operation. After V
(BAT)
reaches sufficient voltage high enough for bq29312operation, the CHG-FET and the DSG-FET are turned ON and ZVCHG-FET is turned OFF.
Although the current path is changed, the same precharging current is still applied. When V
(BAT)
reaches the fastcharging voltage (typical 3 V per cell), the charger switches into fast charging mode.

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
Figure 10. Signal Timing of Pins During 0 V Charging and Precharging (0 V Charge FET)
This mode does not require a dedicated precharge FET (ZVCHG-FET). The charge FET (CHG-FET) is ON atinitialization of the bq29312 when PMS = V
(PACK)
allowing for 0 V or precharge current to flow. The applicationcircuit is shown in Figure 11 . The charger is expected to provide the precharge function in this mode, where thecharger provides a precharge current level suitable to charge cells below a set level, typically below 3.0 V percell. When the lowest cell voltage rises above this level then a fast charging current is applied.
When the charger is connected the voltage at PMS rises. Once it is above 0.7 V, the CHG output is driven toGND which turns ON the CHG-FET. The charging current flows through the CHG-FET and a back diode ofDSG-FET. The pack voltage is represented by the following equation.V

(BAT)
+ V
F
+ V

Where V
F
= 0.7 V is the forward voltage of a DSG-FET back diode and is typically 0.7 V.
While V
(PACK)
is maintained above 0.7 V the precharging current is maintained. While V
(PACK)
and V
(BAT)
areunder the bq29312 supply voltage then the bq29312 regulator is inactive and the host controller is not functional.Thus, any protection features of this chipset do not function during this period. This state continues until V
(PACK)goes higher than the bq29312 minimum supply voltage.
When V
(BAT)
rises and V
(PACK)
reaches bq29312 minimum supply voltage, the REG output is active providing a3.3 V (typ) supply to the host. When this level is reached the CHG pin changes its state from GND to the levelcontrolled with CHG bit in bq29312 registers. In this state, the CHG output level is driven by a clamp circuit sothat its voltage level changes from 0 V to 1 V. Also, the host controller is active and can turn ON the DSG-FET.

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)The disadvantages is that during 0 V charging, bq29312 is inactive. The device does not protect the battery anddoes not update battery information (now is 0 V charging) to the PC.
There are two advantage of this configuration:1. The voltage between BAT and PACK is lower. Higher precharge current is allowed due to less heat loss isthe FET and no external resistor required.2. The charge FET is turned on during precharging. The precharge current can be fully controlled by thecharger.
Figure 11. Common FET Mode Circuit Diagram
The signal timing during the common FET mode is shown in Figure 12 . The CHG-FET is turned on when thecharger is connected. As V
(BAT)
rises and V
(PACK)
reaches the bq29312 minimum supply voltage, the REG outputbecomes active and the host controller starts to work.
When V

becomes high enough, the host controller turns ON the DSG-FET. The charger enters the fastcharging mode when V

When the charger is connected, CHG-FET, DSG-FET and PCHG-FET are already in the OFF state. When thecharger in connected it applies V

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)In this configuration, attention must be paid to high power consumption in the PCHG-FET and the series resistorR
(PCHG)
. The highest power is consumed when V
BAT
= 0 V, where it is the highest differential between the PACKand BAT pins. For example, the power consumption in 4 series cells with 17.4 V fast charge voltage and R
(PCHG)= 188 is expressed below.I
PCHG
= (17.4 V 0.0 V)/188 = 92.6 mA17.4 V ×92.6 mA = 1.61 W
An optional solution is to combine a thermistor with a resistor to create R
(PCHG)
, therefore, as temperatureincreases, the current reduces.
Once the lowest cell voltage reaches the fast charge level (typ 3.0 V per cell), the host controller turns ONCHG-FET and DSG-FET, and turns OFF PCHG-FET.
It is also appropriate to turn on DSG-FET during precharge in order to supply precharge current efficiently, asshown in Figure 15 .

Summary
bq29312
SLUS546E MARCH 2003 REVISED MARCH 2005
APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
The three types of 0-V charge options available with the bq29312 are summarized in Table 4 .
Table 4. Charge Options
CHARGE MODE TYPE HOST CHARGE CAPABILITIES KEY APPLICATION CIRCUIT NOTES
PMS = GND1) 0-V Charge FET Fast charge and precharge ZVCHG: Drives 0-V charge FET (ZVCHG-FET)OD: Not usedPMS = PACK2) Common FET Fast charge and precharge ZVCHG: Not usedOD: Not usedPMS = GND3) Precharge FET Fast charge but no precharge function ZVCHG: Not usedOD: Drives the precharge FET (PCHG-FET)
There a number of tradeoffs between the various 0-V charge modes which are discussed below.0-V Charge FET (1) vs Common FET (2)
When the charger has both of precharge and charging functions, there are two types of circuit configurationavailable.
1. 0-V Charge FET The bq29312 is active even during precharge. Therefore, the host can update the batterystatus to the system and protect the battery pack by detecting abnormal conditions. A high voltage is applied on the 0-V charge FET at 0-V cell voltage. In order to avoid excessive heatgeneration the 0-V charge current must be limited.2. Common FET During 0-V charge the bq29312 and the host are not active. Therefore, they cannot protectthe cells and cannot update the battery status to the system. The bq29312 can tolerate high 0-V charge current as heat generation is not excessive. A dedicated FET for the 0-V charge is not required.0-V Charge FET (1) vs Precharge FET (3)
The current paths of the 0-V charge FET (1) and Precharge FET (3) modes are the same. If the 0-V charge FET(1) mode is used with chargers without precharge function, the bq29312 consumes extra current of up to 1 mA inorder to turn ON the ZVCHG output.1. If the charger has a precharge function - ZVCHG-FET is turned ON only during 0-V charging. In this case, 1mA increase is not a concern because the charger is connected during the 0-V charging period.2. If the charger does not have precharge function - The ZVCHG-FET must be turned ON during 0-V chargingand also precharging. When the battery reaches an over discharged state, it must turn OFF DSG-FET andCHG-FET and turn ON ZVCHG-FET. The reason for this is the battery must keep the 0-V charge path whilewaiting for a charger to be connected to limit the current. Consuming 1 mA, while waiting for a charger to be connected in over discharge state, is significant ifcompared to current consumption of other modes.Precharge FET (3)
If the precharge FET (3) mode is used with a charger with precharge function, care must be taken as limiting the0-V charge current with resistance may cause some issues. The charger may start fast charge immediately, ordetect an abnormal condition.
When the charger is connected, the charger may raise the output voltage to force the precharge current. In orderto assure a supply voltage for the bq29312 during 0-V charging, the resistance of a series resister (R
PCHG
) mustbe high enough. This may result in a very high V
PACK
, and some chargers may detect it as an abnormalcondition.
