Features
General Description
the battery pack. After an overvolt-
age condition occurs, each cell must
fall below VCE (charge enable voltage)
for the bq2058 to re-enable charging.
➤ Protects and individually moni-
tors three or four Li-Ion series
cells for overvoltage, undervolt-
age
The bq2058 Lithium Ion Pack Super-
visor is designed to control the charge
and discharge cell voltages for three or
four lithium ion (Li-Ion) series cells,
accommodating battery packs contain-
ing series/parallel configurations. The
low operating current does not over-
discharge the cells during periods of
storage and does not significantly in-
crease the system discharge load. The
bq2058 can be part of a low-cost Li-Ion
charge control system within the bat-
tery pack.
The bq2058 protects batteries from
overdischarge. If the voltage on any
cell falls below VUV (undervoltage
limit) for a user-configurable delay pe-
riod (tUVD), the DSG output is driven
high, shutting off the battery dis-
charge. This safety feature prevents
overdischarge of any cell within the
battery pack.
➤ Monitors pack for overcurrent
➤ Designed for battery pack inte-
gration
➤ Minimal external components
➤ Drives external FET switches
➤ Selectable overvoltage (VOV
)
The bq2058 also stops discharge on
detection of an overcurrent condition,
such as a short circuit. If an overcur-
rent condition occurs for a user-
configurable delay period (tOCD), the
DSG output is driven high, disconnect-
ing the load from the pack. DSG re-
mains high until removal of the short
circuit or overcurrent condition.
thresholds
The bq2058 controls two external FETs
to limit the charge and discharge poten-
tials. The bq2058 allows charging when
each individual cell voltage is below VOV
(overvoltage limit). If the voltage on any
cell exceeds VOV for a user-configurable
