Product details
Overview
BQ2084DBT-V140 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 via a 16-bit integrating delta-sigma ADC (0.65-nVh resolution, <1-µV offset), supports SMBus 2-wire communication, integrates 1 kB flash for programmable cell modeling, and operates with the bq29312 analog front-end to deliver full pack electronics for 7.2-V/10.8-V/14.4-V systems.
For engineers reviewing the BQ2084DBT-V140 datasheet, BQ2084DBT-V140 pinout, BQ2084DBT-V140 application, or BQ2084DBT-V140 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context on its fuel-gauge accuracy architecture, integrated time base (no external crystal required), LED-driven capacity indication, and co-design with bq29312 for cell balancing and dual-tier protection in portable medical and notebook systems.
Technical Context
The BQ2084DBT-V140 implements a low-power RISC CPU core with dedicated peripherals for battery management, including an auto-calibrating integrating ADC for current sensing and a separate 16-bit sigma-delta ADC for voltage and temperature measurement. It interfaces exclusively with the bq29312 AFE via dedicated control lines (SCLK, SDATA, CLKOUT, EVENT) and SMBus for host communication.
Its gas-gauge operation relies on real-time compensation using programmable data-flash parameters-including nominal capacity, self-discharge rate, and temperature-dependent cell-modeling coefficients-and performs qualified discharge learning to update FullChargeCapacity() based on measured discharge down to EDV2 with strict thermal and current constraints.

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ2085DBT-V140 | Same DBT package and pinout; adds enhanced EEPROM endurance (100k write cycles vs. 20k) and improved temperature sensor linearity (±1°C vs. ±2°C). | Preferred for high-cycle-count industrial deployments where frequent flash reprogramming occurs during field calibration. | Select BQ2085DBT-V140 when long-term EEPROM reliability under repeated configuration updates is required. |
| BQ20Z75-V140 | Successor device with integrated 20-V AFE, higher-resolution 18-bit current ADC, and support for SBS v1.2; requires different PCB layout and firmware adaptation. | Targets next-gen designs needing higher voltage tolerance (up to 20 V), faster SMBus speeds (400 kHz), and advanced chemID-based modeling. | Choose BQ20Z75-V140 only for new designs-BQ2084DBT-V140 has no pin-to-pin or firmware compatibility with it. |
Compared with BQ2085DBT-V140, the BQ2084DBT-V140 offers identical functionality at lower EEPROM endurance and thermal accuracy-suitable for cost-sensitive, low-update-frequency applications. Against BQ20Z75-V140, it lacks integrated AFE and SBS v1.2 features, making it appropriate for legacy-compatible, fixed-configuration smart battery packs.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the BQ2084DBT-V140 in a smart battery system?
The BQ2084DBT-V140 serves as the SBS v1.1–compliant gas gauge IC that monitors and reports battery parameters-including RemainingCapacity(), Voltage(), Temperature(), and Current()-via SMBus to the host system. It performs high-accuracy coulomb counting using its integrating ADC and works in tandem with the bq29312 AFE to enable full pack electronics without external regulators or discrete protection components. The BQ2084DBT-V140 is essential for runtime prediction, state-of-charge indication, and safe battery operation in portable systems.
Does the BQ2084DBT-V140 require an external crystal oscillator?
No, the BQ2084DBT-V140 does not require an external crystal oscillator. It features an integrated 32.768-kHz oscillator that uses either a 100-kΩ resistor on the ROSC pin (XCK2) or an optional 12-pF crystal on XCK1/XCK2-not both. The internal oscillator achieves ±2% frequency accuracy and eliminates crystal-related BOM cost and layout complexity. The BQ2084DBT-V140 automatically selects the oscillator source at power-up based on component presence.
How does the BQ2084DBT-V140 achieve high-accuracy current measurement?
The BQ2084DBT-V140 achieves high-accuracy current measurement using a self-calibrating 16-bit integrating delta-sigma ADC connected to the SR1 and SR2 pins. This ADC provides better than 0.65-nVh resolution and less than 1-µV typical offset error. During SMBus idle periods ≥20 s, the BQ2084DBT-V140 internally shorts SR1 to SR2 and measures residual offset, enabling automatic cancellation. The result is sub-mA precision in coulomb counting across temperature and aging-critical for reliable fuel-gauge performance in Li-ion packs.
Can the BQ2084DBT-V140 operate independently of the bq29312 AFE?
No, the BQ2084DBT-V140 is designed to operate exclusively with the bq29312 AFE. It relies on the bq29312 for cell voltage monitoring (via VIN), power delivery (eliminating need for external LDO), protection signaling (EVENT, SAFE), and cell balancing control. The BQ2084DBT-V140 lacks internal high-voltage analog front-end circuitry and cannot directly monitor individual cell voltages or drive protection FETs. Its pinout, register map, and functional behavior assume tight co-design with the bq29312-making standalone use unsupported.
What type of LED display does the BQ2084DBT-V140 support?
The BQ2084DBT-V140 supports 3-, 4-, or 5-segment LED displays via its integrated LED1–LED5 drivers, each capable of sourcing 10 mA. Segments illuminate in fixed increments-20%, 25%, or 33%-to indicate remaining capacity from full to empty without host processor involvement. Display configuration (segment count, increment step, and brightness) is programmable via data flash registers. This reduces firmware overhead and enables simple, reliable visual battery status feedback in space-constrained portable devices.
