Product details
Overview
BQ2084DBT-V141 from Texas Instruments is a Smart Battery Specification (SBS) v1.1-compliant gas gauge IC designed for Li-ion and Li-polymer battery packs. It delivers accurate remaining capacity measurement via 16-bit delta-sigma integrating ADC (0.65-nVh resolution, <1-µV offset), supports SMBus 2-wire interface, integrates 1-kB flash memory for programmable cell modeling, and operates in a 38-pin TSSOP (DBT) package across –20°C to 85°C for notebook PC battery management.
For engineers reviewing the BQ2084DBT-V141 datasheet, BQ2084DBT-V141 pinout, BQ2084DBT-V141 application, or BQ2084DBT-V141 equivalent, key selection considerations include its SBS v1.1 compliance, coulomb-counting accuracy with self-calibrating current sensing, integrated LED drivers for 3–5-segment fuel gauge display, compatibility with bq29312 AFE, and operating supply range of 3 V to 3.6 V.
Technical Context
The BQ2084DBT-V141 implements a low-power RISC CPU core with dedicated peripherals for real-time battery monitoring. It performs continuous coulomb counting using a bipolar integrating ADC on SR1/SR2 (±0.25 V input range), measures pack/cell voltage and temperature via a second 16-bit sigma-delta ADC, and executes voltage-based RM corrections at EDV0/EDV1/EDV2 thresholds with programmable compensation.
It relies on external bq29312 analog front-end for cell balancing, overvoltage/overcurrent protection, and level translation, while managing communication via SMBus slave mode (10–100 kHz), supporting SBS data commands, and maintaining register backup via RBI pin with capacitor or battery hold-up.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the primary function of the BQ2084DBT-V141 in a battery pack?
The BQ2084DBT-V141 serves as an SBS v1.1-compliant gas gauge IC that accurately tracks remaining capacity in Li-ion and Li-polymer battery packs using coulomb counting, voltage/temperature compensation, and programmable cell modeling. It reports real-time data-including RemainingCapacity(), Voltage(), and Temperature()-to the host system via SMBus, enabling precise runtime estimation and intelligent power management in devices like notebooks and medical instruments. The BQ2084DBT-V141 integrates all essential functions except protection, which is handled by the companion bq29312 AFE.
Does the BQ2084DBT-V141 require an external crystal oscillator?
No-the BQ2084DBT-V141 supports both internal and external oscillator configurations. It defaults to internal operation using a 100-kΩ resistor on ROSC (pin 33), but automatically switches to external 32.768-kHz crystal mode if the resistor is absent. The datasheet specifies that only one option-either the ROSC resistor or the crystal-should be populated, not both. The internal oscillator achieves ±2% frequency error (typical), while the crystal option improves timing accuracy for applications demanding tighter synchronization.
How does the BQ2084DBT-V141 handle battery capacity learning and FullChargeCapacity (FCC) updates?
The BQ2084DBT-V141 performs automatic capacity learning during qualified discharges-from near-full to EDV2 threshold-under defined conditions (e.g., temperature > Learning Low Temp, no overload, ≤256 mAh self-discharge). Upon completion, it updates the FullChargeCapacity() (FCC) register with the measured discharge value and saves it to on-chip flash. FCC becomes the reference for relative state-of-charge calculations and AtRate() predictions. The BQ2084DBT-V141 also supports manual FCC override via SMBus commands for factory calibration or field recalibration.
Can the BQ2084DBT-V141 operate without the bq29312 analog front-end?
No-the BQ2084DBT-V141 is explicitly designed to work in tandem with the bq29312 AFE. It relies on the bq29312 for cell voltage monitoring, overvoltage/overcurrent protection, cell balancing control, and level translation between the high-side cell stack and BQ2084DBT-V141's low-voltage domain. While the BQ2084DBT-V141 handles computation and communication, the bq29312 provides essential analog safety and measurement infrastructure; neither IC is functionally complete without the other in production SBS battery packs.
What is the role of the RBI pin on the BQ2084DBT-V141?
The RBI (Register Backup Input) pin on the BQ2084DBT-V141 provides backup power to retain volatile RAM and flash configuration data during brown-out or pack removal events. When VDD drops below the power-on reset threshold (~2.1–2.5 V), the BQ2084DBT-V141 switches to RBI-supplied power (minimum 1.3 V) to preserve register states and prevent loss of learned capacity or calibration settings. A small capacitor (typically 10–100 µF) or coin-cell battery is connected to RBI to ensure ≥10-year data retention per flash specifications, directly supporting reliable hot-swap functionality in portable systems.
