RBI Input
The RBI input pin is used with a storage capacitor or ex-
ternal supply to provide back-up potential to the internal
RAM when VCC drops below 2.4V. The maximum dis-
charge current is 100nA in this mode. The bq2018 out-
puts VCC on RBI when the supply is above 2.4V, so a di-
ode is required to isolate an external supply.
Charge/Discharge Count Operation
Table 2 shows the main counters and registers of the
bq2018. The bq2018 accumulates charge and discharge
counts into two main count registers, the Discharge
Count Register (DCR) and the Charge Count Register
(CCR). The bq2018 produces charge and discharge
counts by sensing the voltage difference across a low-
value resistor between the negative terminal of the bat-
tery pack and the negative terminal of the battery. The
DCR or CCR counts depending on the signal between
SR1 and SR2.
During discharge, the DCR and the Discharge Time
Counter (DTC) are active. If VSR1 is less than VSR2, indi-
cating a discharge, the DCR counts at a rate equivalent to
12.5µV every hour, and the DTC counts at a rate of 1
count/0.8789 seconds (4096 counts per 1 hour). For exam-
ple, a -100mV signal produces 8000 DCR counts and 4096
DTC counts each hour. The amount of charge removed
from the battery can easily be calculated.
