Product details
Overview
BQ28Z560DRZR from Texas Instruments is a single-cell Li-ion battery gas gauge IC with integrated protection and SHA-1/HMAC authentication. It performs real-time impedance-based state-of-charge estimation, monitors cell voltage (2.45–5.5 V), temperature (via TS pin or internal sensor), and current (±0.125 V differential input), and drives external N-channel FETs for charge/discharge control in tablet PCs, digital cameras, and handheld terminals.
For engineers reviewing the BQ28Z560DRZR datasheet, BQ28Z560DRZR pinout, BQ28Z560DRZR application, or BQ28Z560DRZR equivalent, key selection considerations include its 12-pin SON package, dual I²C/HDQ interface support, ±10 µV coulomb counter offset, 4.25 V overcharge detection threshold, and firmware-controlled discharge FET gate drive - all critical for secure, high-accuracy battery management in portable electronics.
Technical Context
The BQ28Z560DRZR integrates a 14-bit integrating delta-sigma ADC for coulomb counting (SRP/SRN inputs), a 14-bit ADC for cell voltage (BAT) and thermistor (TS), and 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 (±4.0% error) - enabling precise timing for gauging and protection functions.
Its protection logic implements configurable thresholds and delays for overcharge (4.25 V det., 1 s delay), over-discharge (2.30 V det., 24 ms delay), short-circuit (VBAT–0.9 V det., 400 µs delay), and overcurrent (±0.15 V on SRP/SRN, 12 ms delay), with independent COUT/DOUT outputs driving external N-FETs and GPIO-configurable alert or CFET control.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar battery gas gauge and protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ28Z610DRZR | Includes integrated 5-V charge pump for high-side FET control; adds SMBus Alert Response Address (ARA) support | Required for designs using high-side charge FETs or needing multi-gauge SMBus arbitration | Select BQ28Z610DRZR when high-side switching or ARA functionality is needed; otherwise BQ28Z560DRZR offers lower cost and identical gauging accuracy |
| BQ27426YZFT | Single-cell gauge only (no integrated protection FET drivers); smaller 10-pin YFF package; no SHA-1 authentication | Suitable for cost-sensitive applications where external protection IC is already present and security is not required | Choose BQ27426YZFT for simplified, lower-BOM-cost gauging where protection is handled separately and authentication is unnecessary |
Compared with BQ28Z560DRZR, BQ28Z610DRZR adds charge-pump-based high-side FET control and SMBus ARA, while BQ27426YZFT removes protection drivers and authentication to reduce size and cost - making BQ28Z560DRZR the optimal balance of integration, security, and footprint for mainstream portable Li-ion packs.

FAQ
What communication interfaces does the BQ28Z560DRZR support?
The BQ28Z560DRZR supports two serial interfaces: I²C (SMBus-compatible, 100 kHz) and HDQ (single-wire, bi-directional). SDA serves as the shared data line for both; SCL is used only for I²C. The interface is selected at power-up based on external pull-up configuration, and the BQ28Z560DRZR operates exclusively as a slave device in either mode.
How does the BQ28Z560DRZR implement battery protection?
The BQ28Z560DRZR implements hardware-based protection via dedicated comparator circuits that monitor BAT voltage, VM differential voltage, and SRP/SRN current sense signals. It asserts COUT low to disable charge FETs during overcharge (4.25 V) and DOUT low to disable discharge FETs during over-discharge (2.30 V), short-circuit, or overcurrent - all with programmable delays and recovery thresholds.
What is the role of the VREG pin on the BQ28Z560DRZR?
The VREG pin on the BQ28Z560DRZR is the output of an internal 2.5 V LDO regulator, capable of supplying up to 16 mA. It powers external circuitry such as thermistor bias networks or level shifters, and requires a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to VSS for stability. Its output voltage remains within 2.45–2.55 V across load and line variations.
Can the BQ28Z560DRZR authenticate battery packs?
Yes, the BQ28Z560DRZR includes hardware-accelerated SHA-1/HMAC authentication logic. It securely verifies battery pack identity using a secret key stored in one-time-programmable memory, preventing counterfeit or non-OEM cells from operating in certified devices - a critical feature for branded portable electronics.
What is the recommended sense resistor value for the BQ28Z560DRZR coulomb counter?
The BQ28Z560DRZR coulomb counter accepts ±0.125 V differential input across SRP and SRN, so a 5–20 mΩ sense resistor is recommended. For example, a 10 mΩ resistor yields ±12.5 A full-scale current measurement with 14-bit resolution, balancing accuracy, power loss, and noise immunity in typical portable applications.
