DESCRIPTION
The bq26220 is an advanced battery monitoring
device designed to accurately measure the
charge and discharge currents in rechargeable
battery packs. Intended for pack integration, the
bq26220 contains all the necessary functions to
form the basis of a comprehensive battery
capacity management system in portable
applications such as cellular phones, PDA’s, or
other portable products.
The bq26220 works with the host controller in the
portable system to implement the battery
management system. The host controller is
responsible for interpreting the bq26220 data and
communicating meaningful battery data to the
end-user or power management system.
This device provides 64 bytes of general-purpose
flash memory, 8 bytes of ID ROM and 32 bytes of
flash-backed RAM for data storage. The
nonvolatile memory can maintain formatted
battery monitor information, identification codes,
warranty information, or other critical battery
parameters during periods when the battery is
temporarily shorted or deeply discharged.
