ZHCSAB6E October 2012 – May 2018 BQ27545-G1
PRODUCTION DATA.
The bq27545-G1 measures battery temperature through the TS input to supply battery temperature status information to the fuel gauging algorithm and charger-control sections of the gauge. Alternatively, the gauge can also measure internal temperature through its on-chip temperature sensor, but only if the [TEMPS] bit of Pack Configuration register is cleared.
Regardless of which sensor is used for measurement, a system processor can request the current battery temperature by calling the Temperature() function (see Authentication for specific information).
The thermistor circuit requires the use of an external 10-kΩ thermistor with negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor with R25 = 10 kΩ ± 1% and B25/85 = 3435 kΩ ± 1% (such as Semitec 103AT) that connects between the VCC and TS pins. Additional circuit information for connecting the thermistor to the bq27545 is shown in the Figure 9.
