The BQ20Z95DBTR is an integrated circuit (IC) component developed by Texas Instruments. It is a fuel gauge and battery protection device that monitors and controls the voltage, current, and temperature of a single-cell Li-ion or Li-polymer battery pack.
Key features of the BQ20Z95DBTR include:
1. Fuel Gauge Functionality: The IC accurately measures the capacity and state of charge (SOC) of the battery. It utilizes the patented Impedance Track??technology for precise fuel gauging and estimation of remaining battery capacity. This enables real-time monitoring and tracking of battery health, enhancing user experience and maximizing battery life.
2. Battery Protection and Safety: The IC ensures the protection and safety of the battery pack by offering features like overvoltage protection (OVP), overcurrent protection (OCP), short circuit protection (SCP), and thermal management. These protective measures help in preventing damage to the battery and increase its overall lifespan.
3. Integrated HDQ Communication: The IC includes an integrated HDQ communication interface, which allows for bidirectional communication with the host system. This enables advanced battery information exchange and facilitates system-level diagnostics and troubleshooting.
4. Precise Voltage and Current Measurement: The BQ20Z95DBTR incorporates advanced voltage and current measurement algorithms that provide accurate monitoring of battery voltage and current. This helps in determining the true energy throughput, predicting battery cycle life, and optimizing charging/discharging profiles
