Product details
Overview
BQ2084DBTR-V150 from Texas Instruments is an SBS v1.1-compliant gas gauge IC designed for Li-ion and Li-polymer battery packs. It performs coulomb counting with better than 0.65-nVh resolution, integrates a 16-bit delta-sigma ADC for voltage/temperature measurement, and drives 3–5-segment LED displays for remaining capacity indication in notebook PCs and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the BQ2084DBTR-V150 datasheet, BQ2084DBTR-V150 pinout, BQ2084DBTR-V150 application, or BQ2084DBTR-V150 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, confirmed alternatives, and supply-ready procurement support - all grounded in TI's SLUS758 datasheet and official ordering documentation.
Technical Context
The BQ2084DBTR-V150 implements a self-calibrating integrating converter for charge/discharge current measurement, achieving <1-µV typical offset error and continuous sampling at 0.65-nVh resolution. It pairs exclusively with the bq29312A analog front-end to monitor cell voltages, enable cell balancing, and provide dual-tier overcurrent protection.
It communicates via SMBus 2-wire protocol (10–100 kHz), supports programmable cell modeling for fuel gauge accuracy, and uses internal 1-kB flash memory to store nominal capacity, self-discharge rate, and temperature-compensation coefficients. Its oscillator operates either from a 32.768-kHz crystal (XCK1/XCK2) or a 100-kΩ resistor (ROSC), with ±0.25% frequency error when using crystal.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 3.0–3.6 V - powers analog/digital sections separately (VDDA/VDDD); enables stable operation across industrial temperature range. |
| Current Measurement Resolution | Better than 0.65-nVh - enables sub-mAh accuracy in coulomb counting for multi-hour runtime estimation in portable systems. |
| Offset Error | <1 µV (typical) - achieved via auto-calibration when SMBus lines idle ≥20 s; eliminates need for external trimming in production. |
| SMBus Frequency | 10–100 kHz - compatible with standard system management bus timing; supports host polling without custom clocking. |
| Operating Temperature | –20°C to +85°C - validated for use in notebook battery packs and medical handheld devices with thermal cycling. |
| Data Flash | 1 kB - stores user-configurable cell model parameters, EDV thresholds, and learned full-charge capacity (FCC) for field adaptation. |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SBS v1.1 compliance | Full support for Smart Battery Data (SBData) commands and charge-control functions - enables plug-and-play integration with compliant hosts. |
| Integrated time base | On-chip oscillator eliminates external crystal requirement; optional 32.768-kHz crystal or 100-kΩ ROSC resistor - reduces BOM count and layout sensitivity. |
| Programmable cell modeling | Configurable via 1-kB flash to adapt to aging, temperature, and discharge-rate effects - improves long-term fuel gauge accuracy beyond fixed-table approaches. |
| Auto-offset calibration | Self-initiated when SMBus idle ≥20 s; measures internal SR1–SR2 offset and corrects integrating ADC - ensures <1-µV baseline stability without factory calibration. |
| Voltage-based RM correction | Three programmable EDV thresholds (EDV0/EDV1/EDV2) trigger state-of-charge adjustments - compensates for capacity drift due to impedance rise at low SOC. |
Applications
| Smart Notebook Battery Packs | Medical Handheld Devices |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar gas gauge applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ2085DBTR-V150 | Same pinout, identical firmware interface, but adds integrated LDO for VDD generation from pack voltage - eliminates need for external regulator. | Preferred for new designs where board space is constrained and no external 3.3-V rail exists; not drop-in if existing design relies on separate VDD supply. | Select BQ2085DBTR-V150 only when redesigning to consolidate power architecture; BQ2084DBTR-V150 remains optimal for legacy-compatible upgrades. |
| BQ20Z75-V150 | Successor device with enhanced 16-bit ADC linearity (±0.05% vs. ±0.18%), extended data flash (2 kB), and support for SBS v1.2 - includes improved EDV compensation algorithms. | Required for new SBS v1.2–compliant systems; backward-compatible with v1.1 hosts but lacks qualification for legacy medical certifications tied to BQ2084DBTR-V150. | Choose BQ20Z75-V150 for next-gen designs targeting higher accuracy and future-proofing; retain BQ2084DBTR-V150 for certified medical or industrial deployments. |
Compared with BQ2084DBTR-V150, the BQ2085DBTR-V150 reduces component count by integrating an LDO, while the BQ20Z75-V150 improves long-term accuracy and adds SBS v1.2 features - but neither offers pin-to-pin replacement without validation of power delivery and firmware compatibility.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the BQ2084DBTR-V150 in a battery management system?
The BQ2084DBTR-V150 serves as the core SBS v1.1-compliant gas gauge IC, performing real-time coulomb counting, voltage/temperature monitoring, and SMBus communication of RemainingCapacity(), FullChargeCapacity(), and PackStatus(). It works exclusively with the bq29312A AFE to deliver complete pack-level intelligence without external microcontrollers - making it essential for notebook, medical, and test equipment battery packs.
Does the BQ2084DBTR-V150 require an external crystal oscillator?
No - the BQ2084DBTR-V150 includes an integrated oscillator that operates either from a 100-kΩ resistor connected to ROSC (pin 33) or a 32.768-kHz crystal on XCK1/XCK2 (pins 34/33). The datasheet explicitly states that only one option should be used: either the resistor OR the crystal - not both. Crystal use yields ±0.25% frequency error; resistor use achieves ±2% with proper layout and tolerance.
How does the BQ2084DBTR-V150 achieve high-accuracy capacity measurement?
The BQ2084DBTR-V150 achieves high accuracy through three mechanisms: (1) a self-calibrating integrating ADC with <1-µV offset error and 0.65-nVh resolution for current sensing; (2) voltage-based corrections at three programmable EDV thresholds (EDV0/EDV1/EDV2) to adjust RemainingCapacity() during low-SOC discharge; and (3) 1-kB flash-stored cell modeling parameters that compensate for temperature, rate, and aging effects - all validated to maintain <1% error in production systems.
Can the BQ2084DBTR-V150 operate without the bq29312A analog front-end?
No - the BQ2084DBTR-V150 is designed to operate only with the bq29312A AFE. Its VIN, SCLK, SDATA, EVENT, and SAFE pins are hardwired for bidirectional communication and power delivery with that specific IC. The datasheet states it "is designed to work with the bq29312A AFE protection IC to maximize functionality and safety and minimize component count." No standalone operation or alternate AFE support is documented.
What is the role of the RBI pin on the BQ2084DBTR-V150?
The RBI (Register Backup Input) pin on the BQ2084DBTR-V150 accepts a storage capacitor or auxiliary battery to maintain register contents during main supply (VDD) brownout or removal. When VDD drops below the power-on reset threshold (VIT ≈ 2.3 V), RBI sustains the 1-kB flash and RAM registers at ≥1.3 V, preserving RemainingCapacity(), FullChargeCapacity(), and configuration data - ensuring no capacity history is lost during hot-swap or low-voltage events.
