Product details
Overview
BQ27505YZGT-J2 from Texas Instruments is a system-side Impedance Track™ fuel gauge IC for single-cell Li-ion battery packs, providing real-time state-of-charge (%), remaining capacity (mAh), time-to-empty (min), voltage (mV), temperature (°C), and state-of-health (%) with <1% SOC error across operating conditions. It resides on the host system main board-not inside the battery-and interfaces via 400-kHz I²C using only PACK+, PACK–, and T terminals.
For engineers reviewing the BQ27505YZGT-J2 datasheet, BQ27505YZGT-J2 pinout, BQ27505YZGT-J2 application, or BQ27505YZGT-J2 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 12-ball NanoFree™ CSP package (2.43 mm × 1.96 mm), ultra-low quiescent current (4 µA in Hibernate mode), integrated coulomb counter with 14–15-bit resolution, internal temperature sensor, and support for external NTC thermistor (10.0 kΩ, B25/85 = 3435 K).
Technical Context
The BQ27505YZGT-J2 implements Texas Instruments' patented Impedance Track™ algorithm to model battery discharge curves, automatically compensating for aging, self-discharge, and temperature/rate inefficiencies. It uses dual oscillators-a 2.097-MHz high-frequency oscillator (±4.5% error over –40°C to 85°C) and a 32.768-kHz low-frequency oscillator (±4% error)-to synchronize fuel gauging and power-mode transitions.
Its integrating ADC performs coulomb counting with ±10 µV input offset and 2.5 MΩ effective input resistance on SRP/SRN pins, while the auxiliary ADC measures TS (thermistor) and BAT (cell voltage) with 14–15-bit resolution, 125-ms conversion time, and configurable input ranges (–0.2 V to 1 V for TS; –0.125 V to 5 V for BAT).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.4–2.6 V typical; enables stable operation with low-noise LDO regulation and 0.1 µF decoupling at VCC. |
| Quiescent Current | 4 µA in Hibernate mode; extends system standby life without compromising wake-up responsiveness. |
| Coulomb Counter Resolution | 14–15 bits; supports accurate charge/discharge integration over wide dynamic range with ±10 µV offset. |
| I²C Interface Speed | 400 kHz; compatible with standard system microcontroller I²C ports without clock stretching overhead. |
| Temperature Sensing | Internal sensor (–40°C to 85°C) + external NTC interface (10.0 kΩ, B25/85 = 3435 K); enables dual-source thermal validation. |
| Data Flash Endurance | 20,000 write cycles; sufficient for field calibration updates, chemistry configuration, and lifetime SOH logging. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to 85°C ambient; validated for smartphone, PDA, and handheld terminal environments. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 12-ball NanoFree™ CSP (YZG), 2.43 mm × 1.96 mm, 0.5 mm pitch, bottom-terminal layout optimized for minimal PCB footprint and thermal performance (θJA = 89°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SRP | Analog input (coulomb counter +) | Connects to high-side of 5–20 mΩ sense resistor; enables precision current measurement with 2.5 MΩ input impedance. |
| SRN | Analog input (coulomb counter –) | Connects to low-side of sense resistor; differential pair with SRP achieves <1% SOC accuracy under load transients. |
| BAT_LOW | Digital output (push-pull) | Asserts active-high battery-low warning; polarity configurable via [BATL_POL] bit for direct MCU interrupt routing. |
| SOC_INT | Open-drain I/O | Generates programmable state-of-charge interrupt pulses per Table 5-5; requires external pull-up for host wake-up signaling. |
| BI/TOUT | I/O (thermistor control) | Drives thermistor network bias; supports 1.8 MΩ pull-up for reliable battery-insertion detection and NTC excitation. |
| TS | Analog input (NTC sense) | ADC input for 103AT-type thermistor; 8 MΩ input impedance minimizes self-heating error in temperature reporting. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Impedance Track™ Algorithm | Delivers <1% state-of-charge error across battery lifetime by modeling OCV, impedance, aging, and thermal effects-no user calibration required. |
| System-Side Architecture | Eliminates need for embedded fuel gauge in battery pack; reduces BOM cost and enables firmware updates via host I²C without pack disassembly. |
| Multi-Mode Power Management | Five autonomous power states (NORMAL, SLEEP+, SLEEP, HIBERNATE, BAT INSERT CHECK) reduce average current to ≤19 µA during idle. |
| Non-Volatile Configuration Storage | 96 bytes of data flash retain battery profile, design capacity, and chemical ID across power cycles-enabling plug-and-play replacement compatibility. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fuel gauge applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ27426YZFT | Lower-cost variant with reduced data flash (32 B), no internal temperature sensor, and fixed 400-kHz I²C only (no 100-kHz fallback). | Targeted at cost-sensitive consumer electronics where external thermistor is mandatory and firmware update frequency is low. | Select BQ27426YZFT when flash storage, internal temp sensing, and multi-speed I²C are non-critical; verify thermistor bias network compatibility. |
| BQ27510-G3YZFT | Newer generation with enhanced Impedance Track™ v2.0, 200-kHz I²C option, and extended –40°C to 100°C functional range. | Designed for automotive infotainment and extended-temperature industrial devices requiring higher reliability certification. | Choose BQ27510-G3YZFT for designs needing AEC-Q200 alignment, wider thermal margin, or improved aging compensation beyond 800 cycles. |
Compared with BQ27505YZGT-J2, BQ27426YZFT trades flash capacity and internal sensing for lower unit cost, while BQ27510-G3YZFT upgrades thermal range and algorithm fidelity at higher complexity-neither is pin-compatible, requiring PCB layout revision and firmware adaptation.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the BQ27505YZGT-J2 in a battery-powered system?
The BQ27505YZGT-J2 serves as a system-side fuel gauge IC that accurately reports remaining capacity (mAh), state-of-charge (%), time-to-empty (min), voltage (mV), temperature (°C), and state-of-health (%) for single-cell Li-ion batteries. Unlike pack-integrated gauges, it resides on the host main board and communicates via I²C, enabling firmware updates and eliminating reliance on battery-pack intelligence.
Does the BQ27505YZGT-J2 require an external sense resistor, and what value range is supported?
Yes, the BQ27505YZGT-J2 requires an external low-value sense resistor between PACK– and system ground. It supports resistor values from 5 mΩ to 20 mΩ, with optimal accuracy achieved using 10 mΩ. The device's integrating ADC features ±10 µV input offset and 2.5 MΩ effective input resistance on SRP/SRN pins to minimize measurement error.
How does the BQ27505YZGT-J2 handle temperature measurement-with internal or external sensing?
The BQ27505YZGT-J2 supports both internal and external temperature sensing. Its internal sensor covers –40°C to 85°C and provides system-level thermal context. For battery-specific temperature, it interfaces with an external NTC thermistor (e.g., Semitec 103AT, 10.0 kΩ, B25/85 = 3435 K) via the TS and BI/TOUT pins, using a 1.8 MΩ pull-up resistor for accurate biasing and insertion detection.
What power modes does the BQ27505YZGT-J2 support, and how low is its minimum current draw?
The BQ27505YZGT-J2 supports five autonomous power modes: NORMAL, SLEEP+, SLEEP, HIBERNATE, and BAT INSERT CHECK. In HIBERNATE mode, its current draw drops to 4 µA-verified across –40°C to 85°C-making it suitable for ultra-low-power standby in portable electronics where battery drain must be minimized over weeks or months.
Is the BQ27505YZGT-J2 pin-compatible with other members of the BQ275xx family, such as the BQ27510?
No, the BQ27505YZGT-J2 is not pin-compatible with the BQ27510 or other BQ275xx variants. While all share the 12-ball NanoFree™ CSP package outline, pin assignments differ-for example, BAT_GD is on A2 in BQ27505YZGT-J2 but on C1 in BQ27510-G3YZFT. Any migration requires PCB layout revision and firmware register mapping updates.
