PS501 Datasheet, PDF (1/42 Pages) Microchip Technology – Single Chip Field Reprogrammable Battery Manager
PS501
Single Chip Field Reprogrammable Battery Manager
Features
• Single chip solution for rechargeable battery
management
• Footprint compatible with PS401
• SMBus 1.1 and SBData 1.1 compatible
• Precise capacity reporting for Lithium Ion and
Lithium Polymer battery chemistries
• Embedded PowerSmart® patented algorithms
contained in customizable on-chip 16-Kbyte Flash
memory
• User configurable and “learned” parameters
stored in on-chip 256 x 8 EEPROM
• Algorithms and parameters fully field
reprogrammable via SMBus interface
• Integrating sigma-delta A/D converter with 9 to
16-bit programmable resolution which accurately
measures:
- Current through sense resistor
- High-voltage (18V) battery cells directly
connected to VCELL inputs
- Temperature measurement from on-chip
sensor or optional external thermistor
• Integrated precision silicon time base
• Twelve individually programmable input/output
pins that can be assigned as charge control I/O,
secondary safety function I/O, SOC LED output or
general purpose I/O
- Two of the twelve I/Os are high voltage,
capable for direct drive of Charge and Safety
FETs
• On-chip regulator generates precision digital and
analog supply voltages directly from pack voltage
• Supports direct connection to 2 to 4-cell Lithium
packs
• Flexible power operating modes:
- Run: Continuous operation
- Sample: Periodic measurements at
programmable intervals
- Sleep: Shutdown mode due to low voltage.
Power consumption less than 25 µA.
- Shelf-Sleep: Shuts off PS501 power consumption
for pack storage with automatic wake-up on pack
insertion. Power consumption is less than 1 µA.
• Integrated Reset Control
- Power-on Reset
- Watchdog Timer Reset
- Brown-out Detection Reset
