Product details
Overview
BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 from Texas Instruments is a Smart Battery Specification (SBS) v1.1-compliant gas gauge IC for Li-ion/Li-polymer battery packs. It performs coulomb counting with better than 3-nVh resolution, self-calibrating integrating ADC (offset <1 µV), and 16-bit delta-sigma ADCs for voltage/temperature - enabling accurate remaining capacity reporting in notebook PCs and portable medical instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 datasheet, BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 pinout, BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 application, or BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 equivalent, key selection criteria include SMBus 2-wire interface compliance, integrated 32.768-kHz oscillator (no external crystal), 512-byte flash for programmable cell modeling, LED display driver support (3–5 segments), and glueless interoperability with bq29311 AFE protection IC.
Technical Context
The BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 implements dual sigma-delta ADC architecture: one 16-bit integrating converter for high-precision current sensing across SR1/SR2 (−0.3 V to +1.0 V input range, 1 µV offset), and a second 16-bit delta-sigma ADC for voltage (VIN) and temperature (TS) measurement. It operates with continuous 1-second sampling intervals and supports automatic offset calibration triggered by 20 s SMBus idle.
Its RISC CPU core executes fuel-gauge algorithms including dynamic self-discharge compensation (temperature-dependent scaling per Table 4), qualified discharge learning for FullChargeCapacity (FCC) updates, and voltage-based RM corrections at EDV0/EDV1/EDV2 thresholds. Communication occurs exclusively via SMBus 2-wire protocol (10–100 kHz slave mode), with dedicated SMBC/SMBD pins and built-in level translation for host controller interfacing.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fuel gauge applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ2084DBTR-V1P3 | Identical pinout and firmware interface, but lacks LED drivers (no LED1–LED5 pins) and DISP input; same 38-pin TSSOP package. | Requires external LED driver circuitry; suitable only when visual SOC indication is handled by host MCU or separate display controller. | Select BQ2084DBTR-V1P3 only if LED display functionality is unnecessary and board space allows discrete driver implementation. |
| BQ20Z75-V150 | Successor generation with enhanced 16-bit ADC linearity (0.003% INL vs. unspecified for BQ2085), extended temperature range (−40°C to +85°C), and added SHA-1 authentication engine. | Supports secure battery authentication required in OEM laptop platforms; not SBS v1.1 certified - uses custom command set. | Choose BQ20Z75-V150 for new designs needing cryptographic security or wider temp range; avoid for legacy SBS v1.1 systems due to non-drop-in firmware compatibility. |
Compared with BQ2084DBTR-V1P3, the BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 adds integrated LED drivers for direct display control - reducing component count and layout complexity. Against BQ20Z75-V150, it offers strict SBS v1.1 compliance and simpler firmware integration at the cost of missing security features and narrower temperature rating.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 in a battery system?
The BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 serves as a Smart Battery Specification (SBS) v1.1-compliant fuel gauge IC that accurately measures and reports remaining battery capacity using coulomb counting, voltage, and temperature data. It communicates results via SMBus to the host system and supports LED-based state-of-charge indication - all while operating with minimal external components when paired with the bq29311 AFE.
Does the BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 require an external crystal oscillator?
No, the BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 integrates a 32.768-kHz oscillator with ±2% frequency accuracy (±1% at 3.3 V), eliminating the need for an external crystal. This is achieved using an internal time base bias input (ROSC pin) connected to an 113-kΩ precision resistor, simplifying PCB layout and reducing BOM cost.
How does the BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 achieve high-accuracy current measurement?
The BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 uses a self-calibrating 16-bit integrating ADC with better than 3-nVh resolution and less than 1 µV offset error. It continuously samples the voltage across the SR1/SR2 sense resistor (10–20 mΩ), performs automatic offset cancellation during SMBus idle periods, and applies temperature- and rate-compensated algorithms to deliver precise coulomb counts for remaining capacity calculation.
Can the BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 operate independently without the bq29311 AFE?
No - the BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 is designed for glueless interoperability with the bq29311 AFE. While it can monitor VIN and TS directly, critical functions like cell voltage monitoring (VCELL1–VCELL4), safety control (SAFE), and power delivery rely on the bq29311 interface via SCLK/SDATA lines. Operating without bq29311 limits functionality to single-point voltage and basic current sensing.
What type of memory does the BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 use to store configuration data?
The BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 contains 512 bytes of internal data flash memory. This nonvolatile memory stores programmable parameters including nominal capacity, self-discharge rate, temperature compensation coefficients, EDV thresholds, and learned FullChargeCapacity (FCC) values - enabling adaptive fuel gauging without external EEPROM.
How does the BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 handle battery self-discharge during storage?
The BQ2085DBTR-V1P3 applies temperature-compensated self-discharge modeling using a programmable baseline rate (e.g., 2.5%/day at 25°C) scaled exponentially: rate doubles per +10°C and halves per −10°C. This algorithm adjusts RemainingCapacity every 250 ms during awake mode and periodically in sleep mode - maintaining accuracy over months of shelf storage.
