Product details
Overview
BQ28300PWR from Texas Instruments is a fully integrated gas gauge and battery protection IC for 2- or 3-series Li-ion/Li-polymer packs, featuring 16-bit integrating ADC for coulomb counting (±10 µV offset), dual 15/16-bit delta-sigma ADCs for cell voltage/temperature sensing, and P-channel high-side FET drive with <80 µA sleep current. It enables SBS-compliant smart battery systems in notebook PCs and portable medical instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the BQ28300PWR datasheet, BQ28300PWR pinout, BQ28300PWR application, or BQ28300PWR equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context on CEDV gauging accuracy, SMBus v1.1 interface timing, cell imbalance detection, pre-charge FET control, and thermal shutdown thresholds - all confirmed for the exact TSSOP-20 (PW) package variant.
Technical Context
The BQ28300PWR implements a fixed-function analog front-end with two independent ADC subsystems: a 22-bit effective-resolution integrating delta-sigma ADC for bidirectional current sensing across SRP/SRN (–0.20 V to +0.25 V range), and a 16-bit delta-sigma ADC with 16-channel multiplexer for simultaneous VC1–VC3, TS1, BAT, PACK, and REG27 monitoring. Its embedded CPU executes pre-programmed CEDV gas gauging with self-discharge compensation and stores user settings in single-write non-volatile memory.
Protection logic operates autonomously via hardware comparators for OV/UV/OT/SC/CIM, with configurable thresholds (e.g., OCD at 50–200 mV, SCCT at –100 to –300 mV) and programmable delay steps (OCDD step = 2 ms, SCDD step = 122 µs). All FET drives (CHG, DSG, ZVCHG, FUSE) are P-channel high-side outputs with 9–13.5 V turn-on voltage and 40–200 µs rise/fall times into 4700 pF load.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar battery management applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ28Z610RSMR | Supports 1–4 series cells; includes SHA-256 authentication; higher accuracy (±1% SoC); 32-bit MCU core | Required for secure battery authentication in OEM notebooks; supports larger cell counts and advanced diagnostics | Select when cryptographic security, wider cell count range, or field-upgradable firmware is mandatory |
| BQ29400PW | Dedicated analog protector only (no gas gauge); 3.3 V LDO; simpler register map; no SMBus interface | Used in cost-sensitive 2S/3S packs where host MCU handles gauging; lacks CEDV algorithm and RAM backup | Select when only hardware-level protection is needed and system-level gauging is handled externally |
Compared with BQ28300PWR, BQ28Z610RSMR adds security and scalability but increases BOM cost and design complexity, while BQ29400PW reduces functionality to basic protection only - making BQ28300PWR the optimal balance of integrated gauging, autonomous protection, and SMBus compatibility for mid-tier portable applications.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the BQ28300PWR in a battery pack?
The BQ28300PWR serves as a fully integrated gas gauge and analog monitoring management IC for 2- or 3-series Li-ion battery packs. It performs real-time coulomb counting via its integrating ADC, executes CEDV-based state-of-charge estimation, and provides autonomous hardware protection against overvoltage, undervoltage, overtemperature, short circuit, and cell imbalance - all within a single 20-pin TSSOP package. The BQ28300PWR communicates results and accepts commands via SMBus v1.1.
Does the BQ28300PWR support zero-volt charging, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the BQ28300PWR supports zero-volt charging through its dedicated ZVCHG pin (Pin 18), which drives an external P-channel pre-charge FET. When a deeply discharged cell is detected, the BQ28300PWR activates ZVCHG to enable controlled current flow before main charging begins. This prevents lithium plating and ensures safe recovery of cells down to 0 V. The BQ28300PWR also monitors pre-charge current and terminates if thresholds are exceeded.
How does the BQ28300PWR maintain data integrity during brief power interruptions?
The BQ28300PWR uses its RBI (RAM Backup Input) pin (Pin 14) to preserve SRAM contents during transient power loss. By connecting a capacitor between RBI and VSS, the device maintains sufficient voltage to retain gas gauging registers, cycle count, and runtime data for up to several milliseconds. This ensures no capacity drift occurs during momentary brownouts - a critical feature for portable instrumentation relying on accurate cumulative charge tracking.
What are the key differences between the BQ28300PWR and the BQ29400PW?
The BQ28300PWR integrates both gas gauging and protection functions, includes SMBus v1.1 communication, and features CEDV algorithm execution, while the BQ29400PW is a standalone analog protector with no gauging capability or digital interface. The BQ28300PWR uses a 2.7 V internal LDO and supports 3.8–18.75 V operation, whereas the BQ29400PW relies on a 3.3 V supply and offers simpler threshold programming. For systems needing host-independent protection only, BQ29400PW suffices; for SBS-compliant smart batteries, BQ28300PWR is required.
Can the BQ28300PWR be used in a 2-cell configuration, and how is it configured?
Yes, the BQ28300PWR natively supports 2-cell configurations. In this mode, VC1 (Pin 3) is externally shorted to VC2 (Pin 4), and VC3 (Pin 5) is left unconnected or tied to VSS. The device automatically detects the configuration during initialization and adjusts its cell voltage monitoring and protection logic accordingly. No firmware change or register write is needed - the hardware topology alone determines operation mode.
