Lithium Ion Power Gauge™ IC
Features
General Description
➤ Conservative and repeatable
measurement of available capacity in Lithium Ion rechargeable
batteries
The bq2050 Lithium Ion Power
Gauge™ IC is intended for batterypack or in-system installation to
maintain an accurate record of
available battery capacity. The IC
monitors a voltage drop across a
sense resistor connected in series
between the negative battery termina l a n d g r ou n d t o d e t e r m i n e
charge and discharge activity of
the battery. Compensations for battery temperature and rate of charge
or discharge are applied to the
charge, discharge, and self-discharge
calculations to provide available capacity 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.
➤ Designed for battery pack integration

Small size enables implementations in as little as 1 2
square inch of PCB
➤ Integrate within a system or as a
stand-alone device
-
Display capacity via singlewire serial communication

➤ Measurements compensated for
current and temperature
➤ Self-discharge compensation using internal temperature sensor
supports a simple single-line bidirectional serial link to an external
processor (common ground). The
bq2050 outputs battery information
in response to external commands
over the serial link.
The bq2050 may operate directly
from one cell (VBAT > 3V). With the
REF output and an external transistor, a simple, inexpensive regulator
can be built for systems with more
than one series cell.
Internal registers include available
capacity, temperature, scaled available energy, battery ID, battery
status, and programming pin settings. To support subassembly testing, the outputs may also be controlled. The external processor may
also overwrite some of the bq2050
power gauge data registers.
Nominal available capacity may be
directly indicated using a fivesegment LED display. These segments are used to graphically indicate available capacity. The bq2050

Pin Descriptions
LCOM
The voltage drop (VSR) across the sense resistor RS is monitored and integrated over
time to interpret charge and discharge activity. The SR input is tied between the negative terminal of the battery and the sense resistor. VSR < VSS indicates discharge, and VSR
> VSS indicates charge. The effective voltage
drop, VSRO, as seen by the bq2050 is VSR +
VOS .
LED common output
Open-drain output switches VCC to source
current for the LEDs. The switch is off during initialization to allow reading of the soft
pull-up or pull-down program resistors.
LCOM is also high impedance when the display is off.

Functional Description
scaled available energy measurement is corrected for
the environmental and operating conditions.
General Operation
Figure 1 shows a typical battery pack application of the
bq2050 using the LED display capability as a chargestate indicator. The bq2050 is configured to display capacity in relative display mode. The relative display
mode uses the last measured discharge capacity of the
battery as the battery “full” reference. A push-button
display feature is available for momentarily enabling
the LED display.
The bq2050 determines battery capacity by monitoring the amount of current input to or removed from a
rechargeable battery. The bq2050 measures discharge and charge currents, measures battery voltage, estimates self-discharge, monitors the battery
for low battery voltage thresholds, and compensates
for temperature and charge/discharge rates. The current measurement is made by monitoring the voltage
across a small-value series sense resistor between the
negative battery terminal and ground. The estimate of
scaled available energy is made using the remaining
average battery voltage during the discharge cycle
and the remaining nominal available charge. The
The bq2050 monitors the charge and discharge currents
as a voltage across a sense resistor (see RS in Figure 1).
A filter between the negative battery terminal and the
SR pin may be required if the rate of change of the battery current is too great.

Voltage Thresholds
In conjunction with monitoring VSR for charge/discharge
currents, the bq2050 monitors the battery potential
through the SB pin. The voltage is determined through
a resistor-divider network per the following equation:
RB1
= 2N − 1
RB2
where N is the number of cells, RB1 is connected to the
positive battery terminal, and RB2 is connected to the
negative battery terminal. The single-cell battery voltage is monitored for the end-of-discharge voltage (EDV).
EDV threshold levels are used to determine when the
battery has reached an “empty” state.
Two EDV thresholds for the bq2050 are programmable
with the default values fixed at:
EDV1 (early warning) = 1.52V
EDVF (empty) = 1.47V
If VSB is below either of the two EDV thresholds, the associated flag is latched and remains latched, independent of VSB, until the next valid charge. The VSB value is
also available over the serial port.
During discharge and charge, the bq2050 monitors VSR
for various thresholds used to compensate the charge
and discharge rates. Refer to the count compensation
section for details. EDV monitoring is disabled if the
discharge rate is greater than 2C (typical) and resumes
1 second after the rate falls below 2C.

Layout Considerations
RBI Input
The bq2050 measures the voltage differential between
the SR and VSS pins. VOS (the offset voltage at the SR
pin) is greatly affected by PC board layout. For optimal
results, the PC board layout should follow the strict rule
of a single-point ground return. Sharing high-current
ground with small signal ground causes undesirable
noise on the small signal nodes. Additionally:
The RBI input pin is intended to be used with a storage capacitor or external supply to provide backup potential to the
internal bq2050 registers when VCC drops below 3.0V. VCC
is output on RBI when VCC is above 3.0V. A diode is required to isolate the external supply.
Reset
n
The bq2050 can be reset either by removing VCC and
grounding the RBI pin for 15 seconds or by writing 0x80
to register 0x39.
Temperature
n
The bq2050 internally determines the temperature in
10°C steps centered from approximately -35°C to +85°C.
The temperature steps are used to adapt charge and discharge rate compensations, self-discharge counting, and
available charge display translation. The temperature
range is available over the serial port in 10°C increments as shown in the following table:
n
4
The capacitors (C1 and C2) should be placed as
close as possible to the VCC and SB pins,
respectively, and their paths to VSS should be as
short as possible. A high-quality ceramic capacitor
of 0.1µf is recommended for VCC.
The sense resistor capacitor should be placed as close
as possible to the SR pin.
The sense resistor (RS) should be as close as possible to
the bq2050.
bq2050
The battery's initial capacity is equal to the Programmed Full Count (PFC) shown in Table 2. Until
LMD is updated, NAC counts up to but not beyond this
threshold during subsequent charges. This approach allows the gas gauge to be charger-independent and compatible with any type of charge regime.
Gas Gauge Operation
The operational overview diagram in Figure 2 illustrates
the operation of the bq2050. The bq2050 accumulates a
measure of charge and discharge currents, as well as an
estimation of self-discharge. Charge and discharge currents are temperature and rate compensated, whereas
self-discharge is only temperature compensated.
1.
Last Measured Discharge (LMD) or learned
battery capacity:
The main counter, Nominal Available Capacity (NAC),
represents the available battery capacity at any given
time. Battery charging increments the NAC register,
while battery discharging and self-discharge decrement
the NAC register and increment the DCR (Discharge
Count Register).
LMD is the last measured discharge capacity of the
battery. On initialization (application of VCC or battery replacement), LMD = PFC. During subsequent
discharges, the LMD is updated with the latest
measured capacity in the Discharge Count Register
(DCR) representing a discharge from full to below
EDV1. A qualified discharge is necessary for a capacity transfer from the DCR to the LMD register. The
LMD also serves as the 100% reference threshold
used by the relative display mode.
The Discharge Count Register (DCR) is used to update
the Last Measured Discharge (LMD) register only if a
complete battery discharge from full to empty occurs
without any partial battery charges. Therefore, the
bq2050 adapts its capacity determination based on the
actual conditions of discharge.

Programmed Full Count (PFC) or initial battery capacity:
Example: Selecting a PFC Value
Given:
The initial LMD and gas gauge rate values are programmed by using PROG1–PROG4. The bq2050 is
configured for a given application by selecting a
PFC value from Table 2. The correct PFC may be
determined by multiplying the rated battery capacity in mAh by the sense resistor value:
Sense resistor = 0.05Ω
Number of cells = 2
Capacity = 1000mAh, Li-Ion battery, coke-anode
Current range = 50mA to 1A
Relative display mode
Serial port only
Self-discharge = NAC 512 per day @ 25°C
Voltage drop over sense resistor = 2.5mV to 50mV
Nominal discharge voltage = 3.6V
Battery capacity (mAh) * sense resistor (Ω) =
PFC (mVh)
Selecting a PFC slightly less than the rated capacity provides a conservative capacity reference until
the bq2050 “learns” a new capacity reference.
Therefore:
1000mAh * 0.05Ω = 50mVh

6. Compensated Available Capacity (CAC)
The initial full battery capacity is 48mVh (960mAh)
until the bq2050 “learns” a new capacity with a
qualified discharge from full to EDV1.
3.
CAC counts similar to NAC, but contains the available capacity compensated for discharge rate and
temperature.
Nominal Available Capacity (NAC):
Charge Counting
NAC counts up during charge to a maximum value
of LMD and down during discharge and self-discharge to 0. NAC is reset to 0 on initialization and on
the first valid charge following discharge to EDV1. To
prevent overstatement of charge during periods of
overcharge, NAC stops incrementing when NAC =
LMD.
4.
Charge activity is detected based on a positive voltage
on the VSR input. If charge activity is detected, the
bq2050 increments NAC at a rate proportional to VSR and,
if enabled, activates an LED display. Charge actions increment the NAC after compensation for temperature.
The bq2050 determines charge activity sustained at a
continuous rate equivalent to VSRO > VSRQ. A valid
charge equates to sustained charge activity greater
than 256 NAC counts. Once a valid charge is detected,
charge counting continues until VSRO (VSR + VOS) falls
below VSRQ. VSRQ is 210µV, and is described in the
Digital Magnitude Filter section.
Discharge Count Register (DCR):
The DCR counts up during discharge independent of
NAC and could continue increasing after NAC has
decremented to 0. Prior to NAC = 0 (empty battery),
both discharge and self-discharge increment the
DCR. After NAC = 0, only discharge increments the
DCR. The DCR resets to 0 when NAC = LMD. The
DCR does not roll over but stops counting when it
reaches FFFFh.
Discharge Counting
Discharge activity is detected based on a negative voltage
on the VSR input. All discharge counts where VSRO < VSRD
cause the NAC register to decrement and the DCR to
increment. VSRD is -200µV, and is described in the
Digital Magnitude Filter section.
The DCR value becomes the new LMD value on the
first charge after a valid discharge to VEDV1 if:
No valid charge initiations (charges greater than
256 NAC counts, where VSRO > VSRQ) occurred during the period between NAC = LMD and EDV1 detected.
Self-Discharge Estimation
The bq2050 continuously decrements NAC and increments
DCR for self-discharge based on time and temperature. The
self-discharge count rate is programmed to be a nominal
1
512 * NAC per day or disabled. This is the rate for a battery whose temperature is between 20°–30°C. The NAC
register cannot be decremented below 0.
The self-discharge count is not more than 4096
counts (8% to 18% of PFC, specific percentage
threshold determined by PFC).
The temperature is ≥ 0°C when the EDV1 level is
reached during discharge.
Count Compensations
The valid discharge flag (VDQ) indicates whether
the present discharge is valid for LMD update.
5.
Discharge Compensation
Scaled Available Energy (SAE):
Corrections for the rate of discharge, temperature, and anode
type are made by adjusting an internal compensation factor.
This factor is based on the measured rate of discharge of the
battery. Tables 3A and 3B outline the correction factor typically used for graphite anode Li-Ion batteries, and Tables 4A
and 4B outline the factors typically used for coke anode
Li-Ion batteries. The compensation factor is applied to
CAC and is based on discharge rate and temperature.
SAE is useful in determining the available energy
within the battery, and may provide a more useful
capacity reference in battery chemistries with
sloped voltage profiles during discharge. SAE may
be converted to a mWh value using the following
formula:

eight bits that have a maximum transmission rate of
333 bits/sec. The least-significant bit of a command or
data byte is transmitted first. The protocol is simple
enough that it can be implemented by most host processors using either polled or interrupt processing. Data
input from the bq2050 may be sampled using the pulsewidth capture timers available on some microcontrollers.
Error Summary
Capacity Inaccurate
The LMD is susceptible to error on initialization or if no
updates occur. On initialization, the LMD value includes the error between the programmed full capacity
and the actual capacity. This error is present until a
valid discharge occurs and LMD is updated (see the
DCR description on page 7). The other cause of LMD error is battery wear-out. As the battery ages, the measured capacity must be adjusted to account for changes in
actual battery capacity.
If a communication error occurs, e.g. tCYCB > 6ms, the
bq2050 should be sent a BREAK to reinitiate the serial
interface. A BREAK is detected when the DQ pin is
driven to a logic-low state for a time, tB or greater. The
DQ pin should then be returned to its normal readyhigh logic state for a time, tBR. The bq2050 is now ready
to receive a command from the host processor.
A Capacity Inaccurate counter (CPI) is maintained and
incremented each time a valid charge occurs (qualified
by NAC; see the CPI register description) and is reset
whenever LMD is updated from the DCR. The counter
does not wrap around but stops counting at 255. The capacity inaccurate flag (CI) is set if LMD has not been updated following 64 valid charges.
The return-to-one data bit frame consists of three distinct sections. The first section is used to start the
transmission by either the host or the bq2050 taking the
DQ pin to a logic-low state for a period, tSTRH,B. The
next section is the actual data transmission, where the
data should be valid by a period, tDSU, after the negative
edge used to start communication. The data should be
held for a period, tDV, to allow the host or bq2050 to
sample the data bit.
Current-Sensing Error
Table 5 illustrates the current-sensing error as a function of VSRO. A digital filter eliminates charge and discharge counts to the NAC register when VSRO is between
VSRQ and VSRD.
The final section is used to stop the transmission by returning the DQ pin to a logic-high state by at least a period, tSSU, after the negative edge used to start communication. The final logic-high state should be held until
a period, tSV, to allow time to ensure that the bit transmission was stopped properly. The timings for data and
break communication are given in the serial communication timing specification and illustration sections.
Communicating With the bq2050
The bq2050 includes a simple single-pin (DQ plus return) serial data interface. A host processor uses the interface to access various bq2050 registers. Battery characteristics may be easily monitored by adding a single
contact to the battery pack. The open-drain DQ pin on
the bq2050 should be pulled up by the host system, or may
be left floating if the serial interface is not used.
Communication with the bq2050 is always performed with
the least-significant bit being transmitted first. Figure 3
shows an example of a communication sequence to read
the bq2050 NAC register.
The interface uses a command-based protocol, where the
host processor sends a command byte to the bq2050.
The command directs the bq2050 to either store the next
eight bits of data received to a register specified by the
command byte or output the eight bits of data specified
by the command byte.
The communication protocol is asynchronous return-toone. Command and data bytes consist of a stream of

The bq2050 contains an internal temperature sensor.
The temperature is used to set charge and discharge efficiency factors as well as to adjust the self-discharge coefficient. The temperature register contents may be
translated as shown in Table 7.
On first discharge after NAC = LMD
The first end-of-discharge warning flag (EDV1)
warns the user that the battery is almost empty. The
first segment pin, SEG1, is modulated at a 4Hz rate if
the display is enabled once EDV1 is asserted, which
should warn the user that loss of battery power is imminent. The EDV1 flag is latched until a valid charge has
been detected. The EDV1 threshold is externally controlled via the VTS register (see Voltage Threshold Register on this page).
The bq2050 calculates the gas gauge bits, GG3-GG0 as a
function of CACH and LMD. The results of the calculation
give available capacity in 1 16 increments from 0 to 15 16.

LMD is a read/write register (address=05h) that the
bq2050 uses as a measured full reference. The bq2050
adjusts LMD based on the measured discharge capacity
of the battery from full to empty. In this way the bq2050
updates the capacity of the battery. LMD is set to PFC
during a bq2050 reset.

Nominal Available Charge Registers
(NACH/NACL)
7
-
The read/write NACH high-byte register (address=03h) and
the read-only NACL low-byte register (address=17h) are
the main gas gauging register for the bq2050. The NAC
registers are incremented during charge actions and decremented during discharge and self-discharge actions. The
correction factors for charge/discharge efficiency are applied
automatically to NAC. NACH and NACL are set to 0 during a bq2050 reset.

OVLD
The overload flag (OVLD) is asserted when a discharge
rate in excess of 2C is detected. OVLD remains asserted
as long as the condition persists and is cleared 0.5 seconds after the rate drops below 2C. The overload condition is used to stop sampling of the battery terminal characteristics for end-of-discharge determination.
Program Pin Pull-Down Register (PPD)
Writing to the NAC registers affects the available charge
counts and, therefore, affects the bq2050 gas gauge operation. Do not write the NAC registers to a value greater than
LMD.
The read-only PPD register (address=07h) contains some
of the programming pin information for the bq2050. The
segment drivers, SEG1–6, have a corresponding PPD register location, PPD1–6. A given location is set if a pull-down
resistor has been detected on its corresponding segment
driver. For example, if SEG1 and SEG4 have pull-down
resistors, the contents of PPD are xx001001.
Battery Identification Register (BATID)
The read/write BATID register (address=04h) is available for use by the system to determine the type of battery pack. The BATID contents are retained as long as
VCC is greater than 2V. The contents of BATID have no
effect on the operation of the bq2050. There is no default setting for this register.
Program Pin Pull-Up Register (PPU)
The read-only PPU register (address=08h) contains the rest
of the programming pin information for the bq2050. The
segment drivers, SEG1–6, have a corresponding PPU register location, PPU1–6. A given location is set if a pull-up resistor has been detected on its corresponding segment
13

driver. For example, if SEG3 and SEG6 have pull-up resistors, the contents of PPU are xx100100.

Compensated Available Charge Registers
(CACH/CACL)
The read-only CACH high-byte register (address = 0Dh)
and the read-only CACL low-byte register (address =
0Eh) represent the available charge compensated for
discharge rate and temperature. CACH and CACL use
piece-wise corrections as outlined in Tables 3A, 3B, 4A,
and 4B, and will vary as conditions change. The NAC
and LMD registers are not affected by the discharge
rate and temperature.
Capacity Inaccurate Count Register (CPI)
The read-only CPI register (address=09h) is used to indicate the number of times a battery has been charged
without an LMD update. Because the capacity of a rechargeable battery varies with age and operating conditions, the bq2050 adapts to the changing capacity over
time. A complete discharge from full (NAC=LMD) to
empty (EDV1=1) is required to perform an LMD update
assuming there have been no intervening valid charges,
the temperature is greater than or equal to 0°C, and the
self-discharge counter is less than 4096 counts.
Scaled Available Energy Registers
(SAEH/SAEL)
The read-only SAEH high-byte register (address = 0Fh)
and the read only SAEL low-byte register (address =
10h) are used to scale battery voltage and CAC to a
value which can be translated to watt-hours remaining
under the present conditions. SAEL and SAEH may be
converted to mWh using the formula on page 7.
The CPI register is incremented every time a valid
charge is detected. When NAC > 0.94 * LMD, however,
the CPI register increments on the first valid charge;
CPI does not increment again for a valid charge until
NAC < 0.94 * LMC. This prevents continuous trickle
charging from incrementing CPI if self-discharge decrements NAC. The CPI register increments to 255 without rolling over. When the contents of CPI are incremented to 64, the capacity inaccurate flag, CI, is asserted in the FLGS1 register. The CPI register is reset
whenever an update of the LMD register is performed,
and the CI flag is also cleared.
Reset Register (RST)
The reset register (address = 39h) enables a softwarecontrolled reset of the device. By writing the RST register contents from 00h to 80h, a bq2050 reset is performed. Setting any bit other than the most-significant
bit of the RST register is not allowed and results in improper operation of the bq2050.
Battery Voltage Register (VSB)
Resetting the bq2050 sets the following:
The read-only battery voltage register is used to read the
single-cell battery voltage on the SB pin. The VSB register (address = 0Bh) is updated approximately once per second with the present value of the battery voltage. VSB =
2.4V * (VSB/256).

The bq2050 can directly display capacity information
using low-power LEDs. If LEDs are used, the program
pins should be resistively tied to VCC or VSS for a program high or program low, respectively.
Voltage Threshold Register (VTS)
The end-of-discharge threshold voltages (EDV1 and
EDVF) can be set using the VTS register (address =
0Ch). The read/write VTS register sets the EDV1 trip
point. EDVF is set 50mV below EDV1. The default
value in the VTS register is A2h, representing EDV1 =
1.52V and EDVF = 1.47V. EDV1 = 2.4V * (VTS/256).
The bq2050 displays the battery charge state in relative
mode. In relative mode, the battery charge is represented
as a percentage of the LMD. Each LED segment represents 20% of the LMD.
The capacity display is also adjusted for the present battery temperature. The temperature adjustment reflects
the available capacity at a given temperature but does

not affect the NAC register. The temperature adjustments are detailed in the CACH and CACL register descriptions.
When DISP is tied to VCC, the SEG1–5 outputs are inactive. When DISP is left floating, the display becomes active whenever the bq2050 detects a charge in progress
VSRO > VSRQ . When pulled low, the segment outputs become active for a period of four seconds, ± 0.5 seconds.
Microregulator
The bq2050 can operate directly from one cell. A micropower source for the bq2050 can be inexpensively built
using the FET and an external resistor to accommodate
a greater number of cells; see Figure 1.
The segment outputs are modulated as two banks, with
segments 1, 3, and 5 alternating with segments 2 and 4.
The segment outputs are modulated at approximately
100Hz with each segment bank active for 30% of the period.
