Description
The DS2746 remains in production, however, for new projects, we recommend ModelGauge m5 MAX17055 fuel gauge.
The DS2746 provides system-side battery capacity monitoring in cost-sensitive applications. Voltage, bidirectional current, and accumulated current measurement data is provided to the host processor over a 2-wire interface. Offset bias and offset blanking features greatly enhance the accuracy of the coulomb counter. In addition, the DS2746 has two auxiliary A/D inputs to sample the pack identification resistor, thermistor, or other voltage source. The results are reported as a ratiometric fraction of the supply voltage eliminating error related to the supply. The DS2746 reduces the total power consumption of the measurement circuit by enabling the resistor dividers, through the VOUT pin, only while measurements are made. When the system is inactive, a low power sleep mode reduces current consumption while maintaining the coulomb count. The tiny 3mm × 3mm TDFN package consumes only 9mm² of PCB spaceTechnical Docs
