The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance under natural convection is obtained in a simulation on a JEDEC-standard, high-K board, as
specified in JESD51-7, in an environment described in JESD51-2a.
The junction-to-case (top) thermal resistance is obtained by simulating a cold plate test on the package top. No specific JEDECstandard test exists, but a close description can be found in the ANSI SEMI standard G30-88.
The junction-to-board thermal resistance is obtained by simulating in an environment with a ring cold plate fixture to control the PCB
temperature, as described in JESD51-8.
The junction-to-top characterization parameter, ψJT, estimates the junction temperature of a device in a real system and is extracted
from the simulation data for obtaining θJA, using a procedure described in JESD51-2a (sections 6 and 7).
The junction-to-board characterization parameter, ψJB, estimates the junction temperature of a device in a real system and is extracted
from the simulation data for obtaining θJA , using a procedure described in JESD51-2a (sections 6 and 7).
The junction-to-case (bottom) thermal resistance is obtained by simulating a cold plate test on the exposed (power) pad. No specific
JEDEC standard test exists, but a close description can be found in the ANSI SEMI standard G30-88.

9.3.2 Secondary (2nd Level) Safety Features
The secondary safety features of the bq78350 can be used to indicate more serious faults via the SAFE pin. This
pin can be used to blow an in-line fuse to permanently disable the battery pack from charging or discharging. The
secondary safety protection features include:
• Safety overvoltage
• Safety undervoltage
• Safety overcurrent in charge and discharge
• Safety overtemperature in charge and discharge

requirements
• Reports the appropriate charging current needed for constant current charging, and the appropriate charging
voltage needed for constant voltage charging
• Supports pre-charging/0-volt charging
• Supports charge inhibit and charge suspend if battery pack temperature is out of temperature range
9.3.4 Fuel Gauging
The bq78350 uses Compensated End-of-Discharge Voltage (CEDV) technology to measure and calculate the
available charge in battery cells. The bq78350 accumulates a measure of charge and discharge currents and
compensates the charge current measurement for the temperature and state-of-charge of the battery. The
bq78350 estimates self-discharge of the battery and also adjusts the self-discharge estimation based on
temperature.
9.3.5 Lifetime Data Logging
The bq78350 offers lifetime data logging, where important measurements are stored for warranty and analysis
purposes. The data monitored includes:
• Lifetime maximum temperature
• Lifetime minimum temperature
• Lifetime maximum battery cell voltage per cell
• Lifetime minimum battery cell voltage per cell
• Cycle count
• Maximum charge current
• Maximum discharge current
• Safety events that trigger SafetyStatus() updates. (The 12 most common are tracked.)
9.3.6 Authentication

Feature Description (continued)
9.3.7 Battery Parameter Measurements
The bq78350 digitally reads bq769x0 registers containing recent values from the integrating analog-to-digital
converter (CC) for current measurement and a second delta-sigma ADC for individual cell and temperature
measurements.
9.3.7.1 Current and Coulomb Counting
The integrating delta-sigma ADC (CC) in the companion bq769x0 AFE measures the charge/discharge flow of
the battery by measuring the voltage drop across a small-value sense resistor between the SRP and SRN pins.
The 15-bit integrating ADC measures bipolar signals from –0.20 V to 0.20 V with 15-µV resolution. The AFE
reports charge activity when VSR = V(SRP) – V(SRN) is positive, and discharge activity when VSR = V(SRP) – V(SRN)
is negative. The bq78350 continuously monitors the measured current and integrates the digital signal from the
AFE over time, using an internal counter.
To support large battery configurations, the current data can be scaled to ensure accurate reporting through the
SMBus. The data reported is scaled based on the setting of the SpecificationInfo() command.
9.3.7.2 Voltage
The bq78350 updates the individual series cell voltages through the bq769x0 at 1-s intervals. The bq78350
configures the bq769x0 to connect to the selected cells in sequence and uses this information for cell balancing
and individual cell fault functions. The internal 14-bit ADC of the bq769x0 measures each cell voltage value,
which is then communicated digitally to the bq78350 where they are scaled and translated into unit mV. The
maximum supported input range of the ADC is 6.075 V.
The bq78350 also separately measures the average cell voltage through an external translation circuit at the
BAT pin. This value is specifically used for the fuel gauge algorithm. The external translation circuit is controlled
via the VEN pin so that the translation circuit is only enabled when required to reduce overall power
consumption. For correct operation, VEN requires an external pull-up to VCC, typically 100 k.
In addition to the voltage measurements used by the bq78350 algorithms, there is an optional auxiliary voltage
measurement capability via the VAUX pin. This feature measures the input on a 1-s update rate and provides the
programmable scaled value through an SMBus command.
To support large battery configurations, the voltage data can be scaled to ensure accurate reporting through the
SMBus. The data reported is scaled based on the setting of the SpecificationInfo() command.
9.3.7.3 Temperature
The bq78350 receives temperature information from external or internal temperature sensors in the bq769x0
AFE. Depending on the number of series cells supported, the AFE will provide one, two, or three external
thermistor measurements.
9.4 Device Functional Modes
The bq78350 supports three power modes to optimize the power consumption:
• In NORMAL mode, the bq78350 performs measurements, calculations, protection decisions, and data
updates in 1-s intervals. Between these intervals, the bq78350 is in a reduced power mode.
• In SLEEP mode, the bq78350 performs measurements, calculations, protection decisions, and data updates
in adjustable time intervals. Between these intervals, the bq78350 is in a reduced power mode.
• In SHUTDOWN mode, the bq78350 is completely powered down.
The bq78350 indicates through the PWRM pin which power mode it is in. This enables other circuits to change
based on the power mode detection criteria of the bq78350.

9.5 Programming
9.5.1 Physical Interface
The bq78350 uses SMBus 1.1 with packet error checking (PEC) as an option and is used as a slave only.
9.5.2 SMBus Address
The bq78350 determines its SMBus 1.1 slave address through a voltage on SMBA, Pin 30. The voltage is set
with a pair of high value resistors if an alternate address is required and is measured either upon exit of POR or
when system present is detected. ADREN, Pin 29, may be used to disable the voltage divider after use to reduce
power consumption.
9.5.3 SMBus On and Off State
The bq78350 detects an SMBus off state when SMBC and SMBD are logic-low for ≥ 2 seconds. Clearing this
state requires either SMBC or SMBD to transition high. Within 1 ms, the communication bus is available.

10 Application and Implementation
10.1 Application Information
The bq78350 Battery Management Controller companion to the bq769x0 family of battery monitoring AFEs
enables many standard and enhanced battery management features in a 3-series to 15-series Li-Ion/Li Polymer
battery pack.
To design and implement a complete solution, users need the Battery Management Studio (bqSTUDIO) tool to
configure a "golden image" set of parameters for a specific battery pack and application. The bqSTUDIO tool is a
graphical user-interface tool installed on a PC during development. The firmware installed in the product has
default values, which are summarized in the bq78350 Technical Reference Manual (SLUUAN7). With the
bqSTUDIO tool, users can change these default values to cater to specific application requirements. Once the
system parameters are known (for example, fault trigger thresholds for protection, enable/disable of certain
features for operation, configuration of cells, among others), the data can be saved. This data is referred to as
the "golden image.”
10.2 Typical Applications
The bq78350 can be used with the bq76920, bq76930, or bq76940 device, but as default it is setup for a 5-series
cell, 4400-mA battery application using the bq76920 AFE.

10.2.3 Detailed Design Procedure
By default, the bq78350 is initially setup to keep the CHG, DSG, and PCHG FETs OFF and many other features
disabled until the appropriate ManufacturingStatus() bit that enables ManufacturerAccess() commands are
received, or when the default Manufacturing Status is changed.
In the first steps to evaluating the bq78350 and bq769x0 AFE, use the ManufacturerAccess() commands to
ensure correct operation of features, and if they are needed in the application. Then enable features' reading for
more in-depth application evaluation.
Prior to using the bq78350, the default settings should be evaluated as the device has many configuration
settings and options. These can be separated into five main areas:
• Measurement System
• Gas Gauging
• Charging
• Protection
• Peripheral Features
The key areas of focus are covered in the following sections.

10.2.3.1 Measurement System
10.2.3.1.1 Cell Voltages
The bq78350 is required to be configured in the AFE Cell Map register to determine which cells to measure
based on the physical connections to the bq76920 AFE. The cell voltage data is available through
CellVoltage1()…CellVoltage5(). The cell voltages are reported as they are physically stacked. For example, if the
device is configured for 3-series cells connected to VC1, VC2, and VC5 per the AFE Cell Map, then the cell
voltages are still reported via CellVoltage1(), CellVoltage2(), and CellVoltage3(), respectively.
For improved accuracy, offset calibration is available for each of these values and can be managed through the
bqSTUDIO tool. The procedure for calibration is described in the bq78350 Technical Reference Manual
(SLUUAN7) in the "Calibration" chapter.
10.2.3.1.2 External Average Cell Voltage
This is enabled by default (DA Configuration [ExtAveEN] = 1) and uses the external resistor divider connected
to the VEN and BAT pins to determine the average cell voltage of the battery pack. The average cell voltage is
available through ExtAveCellVoltage().
CAUTION
Care should be taken in the selection of the resistor and FETs used in this divider
circuit as the tolerance and temperature drift of these components can cause
increased measurement error and a gas gauging error if CEDV Gauging Config
[ExtAveCell] = 1 (default = 1).
For improved accuracy, offset and Gain calibration is available for this value and can be managed through the
bqSTUDIO tool. The procedure for calibration is described in the bq78350 Technical Reference Manual
(SLUUAN7) in the "Calibration" chapter.
10.2.3.1.3 Current
Current data is taken from the bq76920 and made available through Current(). The selection of the current sense
resistor connected to SRP and SRN of the bq76920 is very important and there are several factors involved.
The aim of the sense resistor selection is to use the widest ADC input voltage range possible.
To maximize accuracy, the sense resistor value should be calculated based on the following formula:
RSNS(min) = V(SRP) – V(SRN) / I(max)
Where: |V(SRP) – V(SRN)| = 200 mV
I(max) = Maximum magnitude of charge of discharge current (transient or DC)
(1)
NOTE
RSNS(min) should include tolerance, temperature drift over the application temperature,
and PCB layout tolerances when selecting the actual nominal resistor value.
When selecting the RSNS value, be aware that when selecting a small value, for example,
1 mΩ, then the resolution of the current measurement will be > 1 mA. In the example of
RSNS = 1 mΩ, the current LSB will be 8.44 mA.
For improved accuracy, offset and gain calibration are available for this value and can be managed through the
bqSTUDIO tool. The procedure for calibration is described in the bq78350 Technical Reference Manual
(SLUUAN7) in the "Calibration" chapter.
10.2.3.1.4 Temperature
By default, the 78350 uses an external negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor connected to the
bq76920 as the source for the Temperature() data. The measurement uses a polynomial expression to transform
the bq76920 ADC measurement into 0.1°C resolution temperature measurement. The default polynomial
coefficients are calculated using the Semitec 103AT, although other resistances and manufacturers can be used.

To calculate the External Temp Model coefficients, use the bq78350 Family Thermistor Coefficient Calculator
shown in the application note, Using the bq78350 (SLUA726).
For improved accuracy, offset calibration is available for this value and can be managed through the bqSTUDIO
tool. The procedure for calibration is described in the bq78350 Technical Reference Manual (SLUUAN7) in the
"Calibration" chapter.
10.2.3.2 Gas Gauging
The default battery chemistry (Chem ID) is 1210, which is a Li-CoO2 type chemistry. Other secondary Li-Ion
based Chem IDs can be obtained from MathCAD Chemistry Selection Tool (SLUC138).
The default maximum capacity of the battery is 4400 mAh and this should be changed based on the cell and
battery configuration chosen.
QMAX = Design Capacity of the Cell × # of parallel cells
Where: Design Capacity of the Cell can be taken from the manufacturer data sheet.
The CEDV gas gauging algorithm requires seven coefficients to enable accurate gas gauging. The default values
are generic for Li-CoO2 chemistry, but for accurate gas gauging these coefficients should be re-calculated. The
procedure to gather the required data and generate the coefficients can be found at
http://www.ti.com/tool/GAUGEPARCAL.
10.2.3.3 Charging
The charging algorithm in the bq78350 is configured to support Constant Voltage/Constant Current (CC/CV)
charging of a nominal 18-V, 4400-mAh battery.
10.2.3.3.1 Fast Charging Voltage
The charging voltage is configured (Fast Charging: Voltage) based on an individual cell basis (for example, 4200
mV), but the ChargingVoltage() is reported as the required battery voltage (for example, 4200 mV × 5 =
21000 mV).
10.2.3.3.2 Fast Charging Current
The fast charging current is configured to 2000 mA (Fast Charging: Current) by default, which is conservative for
the majority of 4400-mAh battery applications. This should be configured based on the battery configuration, cell
manufacturer's data sheet, and system power design requirements.
10.2.3.3.3 Other Charging Modes
The bq78350 is configured to limit, through external components, and report either low or 0 ChargingVoltage()
and ChargingCurrent(), based on temperature, voltage, and fault status information.
The "Charge Algorithm" section of the bq78350 Technical Reference Manual (SLUUAN7) details these features
and settings.
10.2.3.4 Protection
The safety features and settings of the bq78350 are configured conservatively and are suitable for bench
evaluation. However, in many cases, users will need to change these values to meet system requirements.
These values should not be changed to exceed the safe operating limits provided by the cell manufacturer and
any industry standard.
For details on the safety features and settings, see the "Protections" and "Permanent Fail" sections of the
bq78350 Technical Reference Manual (SLUUAN7).
10.2.3.5 Peripheral Features
10.2.3.5.1 LED Display
The bq78350 is configured by default to display up to five LEDs in a bar graph configuration based on the value
of RemainingStateOfCharge() (RSOC). Each LED represents 20% of RSOC and is illuminated when the
bq78350 DISP pin transitions low, and remains on for a programmable period of time.

In addition to many other options, the number of LEDs used and the percentage at which they can be illuminated
are configurable.
10.2.3.5.2 SMBus Address
Although the SMBus slave address is a configurable value in the bq78350, this feature is disabled by default and
the slave address is 0x16. The SMBus Address feature can allow up to nine different addresses based on
external resistor value variation per address.
The default setup of the bq78350 is generic, but there are many additional features that can be enabled and
configured to support a variety of system requirements. These are detailed in the bq78350 Technical Reference
Manual (SLUUAN7).
10.2.4 Application Performance Plots
When the bq78350 is powered up, there are several signals that are enabled at the same time. Figure 10 shows
the rise time of each of the applicable signals.

The bq78350 takes a short period of time to boot up before the device can begin updating battery parameter
data that can be then reported via the SMBus or the optional display. Normal operation after boot-up is indicated
by the VEN pin pulsing to enable voltage data measurements for the ExtAveCell( ) function. Figure 11 shows the
timing of these signals.

11 Power Supply Recommendations
The bq78350 is powered directly from the 2.5-V REGOUT pin of the bq769x0 companion AFE. An input
capacitor of 0.1 µF is required between VCC and VSS and should be placed as close to the bq78350 as
possible.
To ensure correct power up of the bq78350, a 100-k resistor between MRST and VCC is also required. See the
schematic for further details.

12 Layout
12.1 Layout Guidelines
12.1.1 Power Supply Decoupling Capacitor
Power supply decoupling from VCC to ground is important for optimal operation of the bq78350. To keep the
loop area small, place this capacitor next to the IC and use the shortest possible traces. A large-loop area
renders the capacitor useless and forms a small-loop antenna for noise pickup.
Ideally, the traces on each side of the capacitor must be the same length and run in the same direction to avoid
differential noise during ESD. If possible, place a via near the VSS pin to a ground plane layer.
Placement of the RBI capacitor is not as critical. It can be placed further away from the IC.
12.1.2 MRST Connection
The MRST pin controls the gas gauge reset state. The connections to this pin must be as short as possible in
order to avoid any incoming noise. Direct connection to VCC is possible if the reset functionality is not desired or
necessary.
If
•
•
•
unwanted resets are found, one or more of the following solutions may be effective:
Add a 0.1-μF capacitor between MRST and ground.
Provide a 1-kΩ pull up resistor to VCC at MRST.
Surround the entire circuit with a ground pattern.
If a test point is added at MRST, it must be provided with a 10-kΩ series resistor.
12.1.3 Communication Line Protection Components
The 5.6-V Zener diodes, which protect the bq78350 communication pins from ESD, must be located as close as
possible to the pack connector. The grounded end of these Zener diodes must be returned to the PACK(–) node,
rather than to the low-current digital ground system. This way, ESD is diverted away from the sensitive
electronics as much as possible.
12.1.4 ESD Spark Gap
Protect the SMBus clock, data, and other communication lines from ESD with a spark gap at the connector. The
following pattern is recommended, with 0.2-mm spacing between the points.

13.3 Electrostatic Discharge Caution
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.
