bq20z80/bq29312 Circuit Module Schematic
This section contains information for modifying and choosing a precharge mode for
bq20z80/bq29312/bq29401 implementation.
3.1
Schematic
The schematic follows the Bill of Materials in this user's guide.
3.2
Modifications for Choosing Particular Precharge Mode
In order to charge, the charge FET (CHG-FET) must be turned on to create a current path. When the
V(BAT) is 0 V and CHG-FET = ON, the V(PACK) is as low as the battery voltage. In this case, the supply
voltage for the device is too low to operate. This function has three possible configurations, and the
bq29312 can be easily configured according to the application needs. The three modes are 0-V Charge
FET mode, Common FET mode, and Precharge FET mode.
1. 0-V Charge FET mode - Dedicates a precharge current path using an additional FET (ZVCHG-FET) to
sustain the PACK+ voltage level.
2. Common FET mode - Does not use a dedicated precharge FET. The charge FET (CHG-FET) is set to
ON state as default.
3. Precharge FET mode - Dedicates a precharge current path using an additional open-drain (OD) pin
drive FET (PCHG-FET) FET to sustain the PACK+ voltage level.
To use a particular mode of charging with the EVM, add or remove some elements shown in Table 2, and
use the given settings of DF.Configuration, ZVCHG1, 0.

For more details about precharge operation and mode choices, see the bq29312 data sheet (SLUS542).
3.3
Testing Fuse-Blowing Circuit
To prevent the loss of board functionality during the fuse-blowing test, the actual chemical fuse is not
provided in the circuit. FET Q4 drives TP4 low if a fuse-blow condition occurs; so, monitoring TP4 can be
used to test this condition. Fuse placement on the application board is shown in the bq20z80 data sheet
reference-board schematic.

Maximum currents are determined by the value of the sense resistor used and the short-circuit threshold setting of the bq29312.
It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of 6 V and 25 V, with a maximum voltage drop across the
sense resistor of +2150 mV (1-W power dissipation).
EVM Hardware and Software Setup
This section describes how to install the bq20z80EVM-001 PC software, and how to connect the different
components of the EVM.
5.1
System Requirements
The bq20z80EVSW requires Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Drivers for Windows 98SE are provided, but
Microsoft no longer supports Windows 98; and there may be issues in Windows 98 with USB driver
support. The EV2300 USB drivers have been tested for Windows 98SE, but no assurance is made for
problem-free operation with specific system configurations.
5.2
Software Installation
Find the latest software version in the bq20z80 tool folder on power.ti.com. Use the following steps to
install the bq20z80EVSW software:
1. Copy the files from the CD into the temporary directory you selected, open the archive TI USB
DRVRS.zip, and extract its contents in a subdirectory/drivers. Choose preserve directory structure
option when extracting. Alternatively, run SETUP.EXE from the same directory.
2. Plug the EV2300 into a USB port.
3. Wait until system prompt new hardware found appears. Choose select location manually, and use the
browse button to point to subdirectory TIUSBWin2K-XP-1.
4. Answer continue to the warning that drivers are not certified with Microsoft.
5. After installation finishes, another system prompt new hardware found appears. Repeat procedure
above, but point to subdirectory TIUSBWin2K-XP-2
6. Answer continue to the warning that drivers are not certified with Microsoft. Installation of drivers is
now finished.
7. For Windows 98, point to directory TIUSBWin98.
8. Return to the temporary directory where you extracted files; double-click on the Setup.exe icon to
install EV Software.
If files were downloaded from the Web:
1. Open the archive containing the installation package, and copy its contents in a temporary directory.
2. Follow the preceding steps 1 - 8.
6
Troubleshooting Unexpected Dialog Boxes
Ensure that the files were extracted from the zip file using the Preserve Folder names option.
Ensure that ALL the files were extracted from the zip file.
The user that is downloading the files must be logged in as the administrator.
The driver is not signed, so the administrator must allow installation of unsigned drivers in the operating
system policy.

The bq20z80 EVSW provides a logging function which logs the values that were last scanned by EVSW.
To enable this function, select the Start Logging button, this causes the Keep Scanning button to be
selected. When logging is Stopped, the keep scanning button is still selected and has to be manually
unchecked.
The logging interval are specified under the |Options| menu with the maximum value of 65535
milliseconds. The Log interval cannot be smaller than scan interval because this results in the same value
being logged at least twice.

This screen shows the SBS data set along with additional ManufacturersAccess() command information
such as individual cell measurements. Additional Flag and Static data can be viewed by selecting the
appropriate tab at the bottom of the SBS screen.
Data such as SBS.ManufacturerName( ) is static and does not change. This data is viewed separately
using the Static Data tab available at the bottom of the screen.
Dragging the splitter bar (line that separates the Flags/Static data from SBS values) changes the height of
the Flags/Static Data display. Selecting |View| then |Auto Arrange| returns the splitter bar to its original
location.

The data flash configuration can be saved to a file by selecting | File | Export |, and entering a file name. A
data flash file can also be retrieved in this way, imported, and written to the bq20z80 using the | Write All |
button.
The configuration information of the bq29312 and module calibration data is also held in the bq20z80 data
flash.
The bq20z80 allows for an automatic data flash export function, similar to the SBS Data logging function.
This feature, when selected via | Options | Auto Export |, exports Data Flash to a sequential series of files
named as FilenameNNNNN.gg where N = a decimal number from 0 to 9.
The AutoExport interval is set under the | Options menu | with a minimum value of 15 seconds. The
AutoExport filename is also set under the | Options menu |.
When there is a check next to | AutoExport |, the AutoExport is in progress. The same menu selection is
used to turn on / off AutoExport.
If the data flash screen is blank, then the bq20z80 that is being used may not be supported by the
bqEVSW version that is being used. An upgrade may be required.

How to Calibrate
Before the bq20z80 is calibrated:
• Connect a load to Pack- and Pack+ that draws approximately 2 A and measures discharge current to
use the FETs.
• Connect a current source to Batt- and Pack- to calibrate without using the FETs.
• Measure the pack voltage from Batt+ to Batt- (Total of Cell voltages).
• Measure the temperature of the pack.
• These steps may or may not be required, depending on the type of calibration being performed.
9.2
To Calibrate the bq20z80
Select the types of calibration to be performed.
Enter the measured values for the types selected.
If Voltage Calibration is selected, then enter the number of cells on the pack.
If Temperature Calibration is selected, then select the sensor that is to be calibrated.
If the load is connected between Pack+ and Pack-, then select the Use FETs checkbox.
Press the Calibrate Part button.
9.3
Board Offset Calibration
This performs the offset calibration for the current offset of the board.
Remove load/external voltage and short Pack- to Batt-.
Press the CC Board Offset button.
9.4
Pack Voltage Calibration
This calibrates the voltage at the AFE Pack pin.
Make sure Voltage Calibration has been performed for the pack. If Voltage Calibration is not performed,
then Pack Voltage Calibration calibrates incorrectly.
Remove load/external voltage applied between Pack+ and Pack-.
Press the Pack Voltage button to calibrate.
