bq29312A
SLUS629A – JANUARY 2005 – REVISED AUGUST 2005
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION (continued)
The default-state of the CHG and DSG FET drive is off, when PMS = GND. A host can control the FET drive by
programming OUTPUT CTL (b3...b1) where b1 is used to control the discharge FET, b2 is used to control the
charge FET, and b3 is used to control the ZVCHG FET. These controls are only valid when not in the initialized
state. The CHG drive FET can be powered by PACK and the DSG FET can be powered by BAT.
Precharge and 0-V Charging—Theory of Operation
The bq29312A supports both a charger that has a precharge mode and one that does not. The bq29312A also
supports charging even when the battery falls to 0 V. Detail is described in the application section.
SLEEP Control Input (SLEEP)
The SLEEP input is pulled-up internally to REG. When SLEEP is pulled to REG, the bq29312A enters the
SLEEP mode. The SLEEP mode disables all the FET outputs and the OL, SC, and watchdog faults are also
disabled. The RAM configuration is still valid on exit of the SLEEP mode. The host can force the bq29312A into
SLEEP mode via register control also.

Power Modes
The bq29312A has three power modes, Normal, Sleep, and Ship. The following table outlines the operational
functions during these power modes.

MODE DESCRIPTION
The battery is in normal operation with protection, power
management, and battery monitoring functions available and
operating.
The supply current of this mode varies as the host can enable
and disable various power management features.
All functions stop except LDO and I²C interface.
On entry to this mode, all registers are masked off keeping
their state.
The host controller can change the RAM registers via the I²C
interface, but reading data is disabled until exit of Sleep mode.
The bq29312A is completely shut down as in the sleep mode.
In addition, the REG output is disabled, I²C interface is
powered down, and memory is not valid.
