bq2084-V143
SLUS732 SEPTEMBER 2006
The display port drives a 3-, 4-, or 5-LED bar-graph display. The display is activated by a logic signal on the
DISP input. The bq2084-V143 can display RM in either a relative or absolute mode with each LED representing
a percentage of the full-battery reference. In relative mode, the bq2084-V143 uses FCC as the full-battery
reference; in absolute mode, it uses Design Capacity (DC). The DMODE bit in Pack Configuration DF 0x28
programs the bq2084-V143 for the absolute or relative display mode. The LED bits program the 3-, 4-, or 5-LED
option.
The display may be activated at any time by a high-to-low transition on the DISP input. This is usually
accomplished with a pullup resistor and a pushbutton switch. Detection of the transition activates the display and
starts a 4-s display timer. Reactivation of the display requires that the DISP input return to a logic-high state and
then transition low again. The second high-to-low transition can be detected only after the display timer expires.
If unused, the DISP input must be pulled up to VCC. If the EDV0 bit is set, the bq2084-V143 disables the LED
display.
In relative mode, each LED output represents 20%, 25%, or 33% of the RelativeStateOfCharge() value. In
absolute mode, each LED output represents 20%, 25% or 33% of the AbsoluteStateOfCharge() value. Table 7
shows the display options for 5 LEDs, for 4 LEDs, Table 8 and Table 9 for 3 LEDs. In either mode, the
bq2084-V143 blinks the LED display if RemainingCapacity() is less than Remaining CapacityAlarm(). The
display is disabled if EDV0 = 1.
