Enabled Battery Management Solution Evaluation Module
This EVM is a complete evaluation system for the bq20z70/bq29330/bq29412 battery management
system. The EVM includes one bq20z70/bq29330/bq29412 circuit module, a current sense resistor, two
thermistors, and Windows®-based PC software. The circuit module includes one bq20z70 IC, one
bq29330 IC, one bq29412 IC, and all other onboard components necessary to monitor and predict
capacity, perform cell balancing, monitor critical parameters, protect the cells from overcharge, over
discharge, short circuit, and overcurrent in 2-, 3- or 4-series cell Li-ion or Li-polymer battery packs. The
circuit module connects directly across the cells in a battery. An EV2300 board for gas gauge interface is

bq20z70/bq29330 Circuit Module Schematic
This section contains information for modifying and choosing a precharge mode for
bq20z70/bq29330/bq29412 implementation.
3.1
Schematic
The schematic follows the bill of materials in this user's guide.
3.2
Choosing Particular Precharge Mode
The chipset supports both a charger that has a precharge mode and one that does not. The EVM by
default supports a charger that does not have a precharge mode. This is configured by grounding the
PMS pin with a resistor. R12 and Q2 are used as the precharge current path in order to sustain sufficient
Pack+ voltage when the battery voltage is too low to power up the bq29330 IC.
If the charger has a precharge function, R12 and FET Q2 are not used. The PMS pin must be pulled high
to disable ZVCHG output. The charge FET Q1 is used as the precharge FET, and the charger must
control the precharge current and voltage.
Note: The configuration at PMS pin is a hardware level control. Once the bq20z70 is up and running, the
firmware may change the precharge settings. Please refer to bq20z70 datasheet for further information.
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 TP3 low if a fuse-blow condition occurs; so monitoring TP3 can be
used to test this condition.

Install", double-click on bqEVSWSetup00.09.32.exe and follow the installer instructions to complete the
bq20z70 EVSW installation.
2. If the EV2300 was not previously installed, after bq20z70 EVSW installation, a TI USB DRIVER
INSTALLER will pop up. Click "Yes" for the agreement message and follow its instructions.
3. Plug the EV2300 into a USB port.
4. The Win98 Driver can be found in the archive Win98EV2300Drivers-DocUpdateDec1703.zip under the
"EV2300 Drivers" folder.
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 - 4.
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.
7
Hardware Connection
The bq20z70EVM-001 comprises three hardware components: the bq20z70/bq29330/bq29412 circuit
module, the EV2300 PC interface board (purchased separately), and the PC.

Operation
This section details the operation of the bq20z70 EVSW software. Note: the EV2300 driver does not
support Windows Sleep or Hibernate. In case there is a problem communicating with the EV2300 or the
EVM, first unplug the USB cable then plug it back in. If the problem persists, check whether the EVM is in
Shutdown mode. The bq20z70 can be waken up by momentarily applying a voltage higher than 5.5V (but
less than 25V) at Pack+ pin of the EVM.
8.1
Starting the Program
With the EV2300 and the bq20z70 EVM connected to the computer, run bq20z70 EVSW from the Start |
Programs | Texas Instruments | bq20z70 EVSW menu sequence. The SBS Data screen appears. Data
begins to appear once the (single time scan) button is clicked, or when the
check box is checked. To disable the scan feature, deselect .
The continuous scanning period can be set via the |Options| and |Set Scan Interval| menu selections. The
range for this interval is 0 ms to 65535 ms. Only items that are selected for scanning are scanned within
this period.
The bq20z70 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 the scan interval because this results in the same
value being logged at least twice.

The bq20z70 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 bq20z70 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 bq20z70 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 bq20z70
Select the types of calibration to be performed.
Enter the measured values for the types selected (Except for CC Offset Calibration).
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 check box.
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.
Press the Software Board Offset Calibration 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.

10.1 SMB Communication
The set of read/write operations over SMBus are not specific to any gas gauge. These are provided as
general-purpose communication tools.
10.2 Hex/Decimal Converter
These two boxes convert between hexadecimal (hex) and decimal as soon as values are typed into the
boxes. Invalid values may cause erroneous results.
When scaling converted hex values to a higher number of bytes, follow these rules:
• When unsigned is selected, the left pad contains zeroes.
• When signed is selected, the left pad contains zeroes for a positive number, or the left pad contains F
for negative numbers.
10.3 Programming
Allows for device reprogramming from unencrypted and encrypted files.
