1.3 DESCRIPTION
The Texas Instruments bq27505 system-side Li-Ion
battery fuel gauge is a microcontroller peripheral that
provides fuel gauging for single-cell Li-Ion battery
packs. The device requires little system micro-
controller firmware development. The bq27505
resides on the system’s main board and manages an
embedded battery (non-removable) or a removable
battery pack.
The bq27505 uses the patented Impedance Track™
algorithm for fuel gauging, and provides information
such as remaining battery capacity (mAh), state-of-
charge (%), run-time to empty (min), battery voltage
(mV), temperature (°C) and state of health (%).
Battery fuel gauging with the bq27505 requires only
PACK+ (P+), PACK– (P–), and Thermistor (T)
connections to a removable battery pack or
embedded battery circuit. The CSP option is a 12-ball
package in the dimensions of 2,43 mm × 1,96 mm
with 0,5 mm lead pitch. It is ideal for space
constrained applications.
