Datasheet
The slow time charge (STC) and slow time discharge
(STD) flags indicate if the CTC or DTC registers have
rolled over beyond ffffh. STC set to 1 indicates a CTC
rollover; STD set to 1 indicates a DTC rollover.
The STC and STD locations are
MODE/WOE Bits
765 4 3 2 1 0
- - STC STD - - - -
Where STC/STD is
0 No rollover
1 Rollover occurred in the corresponding
CTC/DTC register.
The Wake Up Output Enable (WOE) bits (bits 3–1) are
used to set the Wake-Up Enable signal level. Whenever
|V
SRO
|<V
WOE
, the WAKE output is in High Z. If
|V
SRO
| is greater than V
WOE
, WAKE transitions low. On
bq2018 initialization (power-on reset) these bits are set to
1. Setting all of these bits to zero is not valid. Refer to
Table 3 for the various WOE values.
The WOE 3–1 locations are
MODE/WOE Bits
7654 3 2 1 0
- - - - WOE3 WOE2 WOE1 -
Where WOE3–1 is determined by dividing 3.84mV by the
value in WOE.
Bit 0 is reserved and must remain 0.
Temperature and Clear Register
The TMP/CLR register (address = 74h) is used to give the
present temperature step between < 0°C to > 60°C and
clear the various count registers. The values of the
TMP0–TMP2 (bits 5–7) denote the current temperature
step sense by the bq2018 as outlined in Table 4. The
bq2018 temperature sense is trimmed to ± 2°C typical
(± 4°C maximum).
The TMP2–0 locations are
TMP/CLR Bits
76543210
TMP2 TMP1 TMP0 - - - - -
Where TMP2–0 is the temperature step sensed by this
bq2018.
The Clear bits (Bits 0–4) are used to reset the various
bq2018 counters and STC and STD bits to zero. Writing
the bits to 1 resets the corresponding register to 0. The
clear bit resets to 0 indicating a successful register reset.
Each clear bit is independent, so it is possible to clear the
DCRH/DCRL registers without affecting the values in
any other bq2018 register. The high-byte and low-byte
registers are both cleared when the corresponding bit is
written to 1 per the figure below.
