QSEL/LED3, DSEL/LED2, and TSEL/LED1 are bi-
directional pins with two functions; they are LED driver
pins as outputs and programming pins for the bq2031 as
inputs. The selection of pull-up, pull-down, or no pull re-
sistor programs the charging algorithm on QSEL and
TSEL per Table 1 and the display mode on DSEL per
Table 2. The bq2031 latches the program states when

Voltage and Current Monitoring
The bq2031 monitors battery pack voltage at the BAT
pin. A voltage divider between the positive and negative
terminals of the battery pack is used to present a scaled
battery pack voltage to the BAT pin and an appropriate
value for regulation of float (maintenance) voltage to the
FLOAT pin. The bq2031 also uses the voltage across a

sense resistor (RSNS) between the negative terminal
of the battery pack and ground to monitor current.
See Figure 6 for the configuration of this network.
