Product details
Overview
BQ296223DSGR from Texas Instruments is a high-accuracy, low-power overvoltage protector IC for 2–4 series Li-ion battery packs, featuring factory-programmed 4.50 V OVP threshold, 6.5 s fixed delay timer, ±10 mV OVP accuracy, 3.3 V regulated output (2 mA max), and 8-pin WSON (2 mm × 2 mm) package. It monitors each cell independently and drives external FETs to blow fuses during overvoltage faults in notebook PC battery protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BQ296223DSGR datasheet, BQ296223DSGR pinout, BQ296223DSGR application, or BQ296223DSGR equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, real-world timing behavior, regulator self-disable logic, leakage current specs (<100 nA/cell), and precise alternative part comparisons - all grounded in TI's production-grade SLUSBU5V documentation.
Technical Context
The BQ296223DSGR implements independent per-cell voltage monitoring across up to four series-connected Li-ion cells using precision analog comparators referenced to a factory-trimmed 4.50 V OVP threshold with ±10 mV accuracy at 25°C and 300–400 mV hysteresis. Its internal fixed-delay timer (6.5 s) initiates only upon detection of any cell exceeding VOV and triggers CMOS-active-high OUT after expiration.
It integrates a 3.3 V regulated supply (±0.066 V at 500 µA load) with self-disable functionality activated when any cell falls below factory-configured 2.5 V undervoltage threshold for ≥6 s; the REG output remains stable under 2 mA load with 0.47 µF ceramic capacitor and exhibits <1.2 µA quiescent current when disabled.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| OVP Threshold | 4.50 V ±10 mV at 25°C - ensures precise cell-level overvoltage cutoff without premature tripping in 3S/4S packs. |
| OVP Delay Timer | 6.5 s fixed - provides robust fault confirmation window before triggering fuse-blowing FET drive. |
| Regulated Output | 3.3 V ±0.066 V at 500 µA - powers RTC or always-on logic with tight regulation and 2 mA max sourcing capability. |
| Supply Current | ~4 µA (REG on), ~1.2 µA (REG off) - enables multi-year battery shelf life in backup systems. |
| Cell Input Leakage | <100 nA per Vx pin - minimizes parasitic discharge and preserves cell voltage balance over time. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +110°C - supports operation in thermally demanding laptop and medical battery environments. |
| Package | 8-pin WSON (2.0 mm × 2.0 mm) - enables compact placement on space-constrained battery management PCBs. |
Pinout & Package
8-pin WSON (2.00 mm × 2.00 mm) package with exposed thermal pad connected to VSS. Pin 1 is top-left corner (marking dot adjacent), pin numbering clockwise.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Power supply input | Unregulated input (3–20 V); powers internal circuitry and REG LDO; requires RC filter for noise immunity. |
| VSS | Ground reference | IC ground and negative terminal of lowest cell; must be connected first during assembly to prevent REG damage. |
| V1 | Cell 1 sense input | Sense positive terminal of bottommost cell (V1–VSS); requires 1 kΩ/0.1 µF RC filter per TI layout guidelines. |
| V2 | Cell 2 sense input | Sense positive terminal of second cell (V2–V1); unused pins shorted to adjacent lower Vx for 2S/3S configurations. |
| V3 | Cell 3 sense input | Sense positive terminal of third cell (V3–V2); supports full 4S stack monitoring when all Vx pins used. |
| V4 | Cell 4 sense input | Sense positive terminal of topmost cell (V4–V3); enables complete 4-series cell voltage supervision. |
| OUT | Overvoltage fault signal | CMOS active-high output; drives NMOS gate to short fuse to ground during confirmed OVP event. |
| REG | Regulated supply output | 3.3 V output (2 mA max); self-disables if any cell drops below 2.5 V for ≥6 s; requires 0.47 µF ceramic cap. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Per-cell OVP monitoring | Independent analog sensing of V1–VSS, V2–V1, V3–V2, V4–V3 enables precise fault isolation in stacked Li-ion packs. |
| Factory-programmed OVP | 4.50 V threshold with ±10 mV accuracy eliminates external resistor trimming and reduces BOM count. |
| Self-disabling REG output | Automatically disables 3.3 V supply when any cell falls below 2.5 V for 6 s - prevents deep discharge and extends pack life. |
| Ultra-low leakage inputs | <100 nA per Vx pin minimizes inter-cell voltage drift and avoids false OVP/UV trips during long-term storage. |
| Customer Test Mode (CTM) | Enables fast validation of OVP delay timer via VDD–V4 ≥10 V differential - cuts production test time without compromising reliability. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar overvoltage protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ296221DSGR | Same 4.55 V OVP threshold, 6.5 s delay, 3.3 V REG output, identical WSON-8 package and pinout. | Designed for marginally higher OVP tolerance (4.55 V vs. 4.50 V); suitable where tighter cell voltage control is not required. | Select BQ296221DSGR if design allows +50 mV OVP headroom and shares same layout and firmware. |

FAQ
What is the factory-programmed overvoltage threshold for BQ296223DSGR?
The BQ296223DSGR has a factory-programmed overvoltage threshold of 4.50 V with ±10 mV accuracy at 25°C. This value is laser-trimmed during manufacturing and cannot be adjusted externally. The threshold remains stable across temperature (±54 mV at 110°C) and supports reliable second-level protection in 3S and 4S Li-ion battery configurations without calibration components.
How does the regulated output (REG) of BQ296223DSGR behave during cell undervoltage?
The BQ296223DSGR REG pin delivers a stable 3.3 V output until any monitored cell voltage falls below the factory-set 2.5 V undervoltage threshold for ≥6 s, at which point it self-disables. Once all cells rise above 2.55 V (2.5 V + 50 mV hysteresis), REG automatically re-enables. This prevents deep discharge and preserves battery health in long-idle applications like medical backup systems.
Is BQ296223DSGR pin-compatible with other BQ2962 variants?
Yes, BQ296223DSGR is fully pin-compatible with all BQ2962-x variants in the 8-pin WSON package, including identical VDD, VSS, V1–V4, OUT, and REG pin assignments and electrical characteristics. Layouts designed for any BQ2962 variant can accommodate BQ296223DSGR without modification, enabling drop-in replacement for OVP threshold tuning during design iteration or qualification.
What is the maximum load current supported by the REG output of BQ296223DSGR?
The BQ296223DSGR REG output supports up to 2 mA continuous load current with ±0.1 V regulation error (3.20–3.40 V) across 0–2 mA and operating temperature. Short-circuit current is internally limited to 4 mA. For optimal stability, TI mandates a 0.47 µF ceramic capacitor placed directly between REG and VSS, with layout minimizing trace inductance.
Does BQ296223DSGR require external passive components for basic operation?
Yes, BQ296223DSGR requires external components for reliable operation: 1 kΩ/0.1 µF RC filters on each Vx pin for noise immunity, a 0.47 µF ceramic capacitor on REG–VSS, and a 0.1 µF capacitor on VDD–VSS. These are mandatory per TI's SLUSBU5V datasheet; omitting them risks false OVP/UV trips, regulator instability, or ESD vulnerability in production battery packs.
