DESCRIPTION
The bqJUNIOR™ series are highly accurate
stand-alone single-cell Li-Ion and Li-Pol battery
capacity monitoring and reporting devices targeted at
space-limited, portable applications. The IC monitors
a voltage drop across a small current sense resistor
connected in series with the battery to determine
charge and discharge activity of the battery.
Compensations
for
battery
temperature,
self-discharge, and discharge rate are applied to the
capacity
measurments
to
provide
available
time-to-empty information across a wide range of
operating conditions. Battery capacity is automatically
recalibrated, or learned, in the course of a discharge
cycle from full to empty. Internal registers include
current, capacity, time-to-empty, state-of-charge, cell
temperature and voltage, status, and more.
The bqJUNIOR can operate directly from single-cell
Li-Ion and Li-Pol batteries and communicates to the
system over a HDQ one-wire or I
2
C serial interface.
