Product details
Overview
BQ7694002DBT from Texas Instruments is a 9–15-series Li-ion/LiFePO₄ battery monitor AFE with integrated charge/discharge FET drivers, 3-thermistor support, and I²C interface. It delivers ±15 mV cell voltage accuracy (25°C), 5 mA per-cell balancing current, and hardware-based OV/UV/OCD/SCD protection for 48-V industrial battery packs.
For engineers reviewing the BQ7694002DBT datasheet, BQ7694002DBT pinout, BQ7694002DBT application, or BQ7694002DBT equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world use cases, validated alternatives, and supply-chain support for light EV, ESS, and power tool battery management systems.
Technical Context
The BQ7694002DBT implements a dedicated analog front-end architecture with dual 14-bit ADCs: one for cell voltage/temperature (382 µV LSB) and another for coulomb counting (8.44 µV LSB). Its hierarchical cell sensing supports up to 15 cells across three voltage domains (VSS–VC5x, VC5x–VC10x, VC10x–BAT), enabling random cell connection tolerance without reconfiguration.
Protection logic operates independently of host communication via configurable thresholds and delay timers - OV/UV delays range from 1 s to 8 s, OCD/SCD delays span 8 ms to 1280 ms and 35 µs to 520 µs respectively - while the 3.3-V LDO (REGOUT) powers external circuitry with 4.7 µF output capacitance support.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar battery monitor AFE applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BQ7694000DBT | 2.5-V REGOUT instead of 3.3 V; same I²C address (0x08) and cell count (9–15S) | Requires external level-shifting for 3.3-V host interfaces; unsuitable where 3.3-V rail must be sourced from AFE | Select BQ7694000DBT only when system already provides 2.5-V logic supply and no LDO sourcing is needed. |
| BQ7694003DBT | Includes CRC enabled on I²C interface; identical electrical specs and pinout | Enhances data integrity in electrically noisy environments (e.g., motor drives, inverters); adds minor firmware overhead | Choose BQ7694003DBT for EMI-prone applications where packet corruption risk exceeds software CRC implementation cost. |
Compared with BQ7694000DBT and BQ7694003DBT, the BQ7694002DBT offers optimal balance: factory-set 3.3-V LDO eliminates external regulator needs, while omitting CRC reduces firmware complexity - ideal for cost-sensitive, moderate-noise industrial battery packs.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported cell count for the BQ7694002DBT?
The BQ7694002DBT supports 9–15 series-connected cells, making it suitable for 48-V nominal Li-ion or LiFePO₄ battery packs. Its three-domain sensing architecture (VSS–VC5x, VC5x–VC10x, VC10x–BAT) enables accurate measurement across the full stack without external multiplexing or calibration.
Does the BQ7694002DBT require external EEPROM programming?
No, the BQ7694002DBT does not require external EEPROM programming. Texas Instruments preconfigures the device with fixed parameters including I²C address (0x08), REGOUT voltage (3.3 V), and CRC option (disabled). These settings are permanently stored and cannot be modified in the field.
How does the BQ7694002DBT handle thermistor connections for multi-zone thermal monitoring?
The BQ7694002DBT supports three independent thermistor inputs (TS1, TS2, TS3), each referenced to a different ground domain: TS1 to VSS, TS2 to VC5x, and TS3 to VC10x. This domain isolation prevents thermal crosstalk and enables accurate, simultaneous monitoring of cell, mid-pack, and top-pack temperatures.
What protection features are implemented in hardware versus firmware on the BQ7694002DBT?
The BQ7694002DBT implements OV, UV, OCD, and SCD protections entirely in hardware - they trigger autonomously without host MCU intervention. Secondary protector fault detection and alert signaling are also hardware-driven, ensuring fail-safe response even if the host controller is unresponsive or powered down.
Can the BQ7694002DBT operate in ultra-low-power storage mode?
Yes, the BQ7694002DBT supports SHIP mode with typical supply current of 0.6–1.8 µA. In this state, only the boot detector and bandgap remain active, allowing multi-year battery storage without significant self-discharge - ideal for pre-deployed modules and spare packs.
