7.6.5.7.2 Run-Time-to-Empty
Battery pack run-time-to-empty can be calculated using the following method—the host system reads and stores
the following information during a discharge period and averages the data over a user-determined period of time:
• The DSG bit of the BatteryStatus register is set to ensure DOUT terminal is high (ensure the system is in
discharge mode).
• AverageCurrent (mA)
– Positive value = Charge Current
– Negative value = Discharge Current
– One minute rolling average of current value (the user can accumulate this time for improved granularity)
• RemainingCapacity (mAh)
Run-Time-to-Empty = RemainingCapacity (avg mAh) ÷ AverageCurrent (mA). This result will be in hours, and
therefore to convert to minutes, divide the results by 60.
7.6.5.7.3 Charging Time To Full
This is a read-only function that predicts the remaining time until battery reaches full charge in minutes based on
Average Current(). The computation accounts for the taper current time extension from the linear TTF
computation based on a fixed Average Current() rate of change of accumulation. A value of 65,535 indicates a
battery is NOT being charged.
7.6.5.7.4 Remaining Capacity Alert
To set a notification when battery capacity is below a pre-determined value, the user can set a Remaining
Capacity alarm alert in the system side. The Remaining Capacity value determined by the bq28550-R1 device is
compared to the user-selected value. If the Remaining Capacity value < the user-selected Remaining Capacity
threshold, the host system should instruct the user on what action is needed.
