Product details
Overview
BQ769142PFBR from Texas Instruments is a high-accuracy, 3- to 14-series battery monitor and protector IC for Li-ion, Li-polymer, and LiFePO₄ battery packs. It integrates dual ADCs for simultaneous voltage/current sampling, ±200-mV current-sense range, <10 mV typical cell voltage measurement error, autonomous high-side NFET charge pump drivers, and OTP memory programmable on production line.
For engineers reviewing the BQ769142PFBR datasheet, BQ769142PFBR pinout, BQ769142PFBR application, or BQ769142PFBR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 48-pin TQFP (PFB) package, 85-V high-voltage tolerance on cell-connect pins, 9-µA DEEPSLEEP mode, dual programmable LDOs (REG1/REG2), and support for I²C/SPI/HDQ interfaces in industrial battery pack designs.
Technical Context
The BQ769142PFBR implements a dual-ADC architecture: one dedicated to high-accuracy cell voltage monitoring (±5 mV at 25°C), the other to coulomb counting with <1 µV input offset error. Its integrated charge pump enables direct drive of high-side NFETs without external components, supporting autonomous recovery after overvoltage or overcurrent events.
Protection logic includes configurable primary and secondary thresholds for cell voltage, temperature (via internal sensor + up to nine external thermistors), current, and internal diagnostics. Power management supports four distinct modes-NORMAL (286 µA), SLEEP (24–41 µA), DEEPSLEEP (9–10 µA), and SHUTDOWN (1 µA)-with wake-on-LD or TS2 functionality.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar battery monitor and protector applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ769141PFBR | Same 48-pin TQFP package and feature set, but lacks HDQ interface support - only I²C and SPI available | Suitable where one-wire communication is unnecessary and cost reduction is prioritized over interface flexibility | Select BQ769141PFBR if HDQ is unused and lower BOM cost is critical; otherwise BQ769142PFBR offers broader host compatibility |
| MAX17853GCM+ | 16-channel monitor in 48-pin QFN; supports up to 16 cells but requires external charge pump for high-side FET drive | Better suited for higher-cell-count (>14S) or automotive-grade applications with ASIL-B requirements | Choose MAX17853GCM+ only when scaling beyond 14 cells or requiring AEC-Q100 qualification; BQ769142PFBR integrates charge pump and fits 3–14S industrial use cases more tightly |
Compared with BQ769141PFBR and MAX17853GCM+, the BQ769142PFBR uniquely combines HDQ support, integrated charge pump, and OTP programmability in a single 48-pin TQFP - reducing external components and enabling production-line customization without firmware rework.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported cell count for the BQ769142PFBR?
The BQ769142PFBR supports battery packs with 3 to 14 series-connected cells. This range covers common configurations including 10S e-bike packs, 12S cordless tool batteries, and 14S battery backup units. The device uses VC0 through VC14 pins to monitor individual cell voltages and perform balancing, with VC14 serving as the top-of-stack measurement point.
Does the BQ769142PFBR integrate a charge pump, and what is its purpose?
Yes, the BQ769142PFBR integrates an internal charge pump used to drive high-side NFET protection FETs. This eliminates the need for external bootstrap circuitry and enables reliable operation in high-voltage battery systems. The charge pump supports autonomous recovery after overvoltage or overcurrent faults, allowing automatic resumption of normal operation once conditions return to safe limits - a key capability in unattended industrial applications.
What communication interfaces does the BQ769142PFBR support, and how are they implemented?
The BQ769142PFBR supports three communication interfaces: 400-kHz I²C, SPI, and HDQ one-wire. These share multifunction pins (e.g., ALERT, SCL/SDA, HDQ, CFETOFF, DFETOFF), allowing flexible host connectivity without increasing pin count. I²C and SPI provide high-speed bidirectional communication for configuration and telemetry, while HDQ enables low-pin-count, half-duplex communication ideal for space-constrained or cost-sensitive designs using the BQ769142PFBR.
How does the BQ769142PFBR handle temperature monitoring?
The BQ769142PFBR supports temperature monitoring via one internal die sensor and up to nine external NTC thermistors connected to TS1, TS2, TS3, and multifunction pins (ALERT, HDQ, CFETOFF, DFETOFF, DCHG, DDSG). Each thermistor input is routed through the device's general-purpose ADC, enabling calibrated temperature readings across the full operating range. TS2 also serves as a wake source from SHUTDOWN mode, enhancing system responsiveness in cold-start scenarios using the BQ769142PFBR.
What power modes does the BQ769142PFBR offer, and what are their typical current draws?
The BQ769142PFBR offers four power modes: NORMAL (286 µA), multiple SLEEP options (24–41 µA), multiple DEEPSLEEP options (9–10 µA), and SHUTDOWN (1 µA). These modes enable optimized energy use across operational states - for example, DEEPSLEEP maintains RTC and wake capability while drawing less than 10 µA, extending shelf life in battery-powered equipment. All modes retain critical protection functions, ensuring safety even at lowest power states of the BQ769142PFBR.
