BATTERY PACK TEMPERATURE MONITORING
The bq2407x features an external battery pack temperature monitoring input. The TS input connects to the NTC
thermistor in the battery pack to monitor battery temperature and prevent dangerous over-temperature
conditions. During charging, I
NTC
is sourced to TS and the voltage at TS is continuously monitored. If, at any
time, the voltage at TS is outside of the operating range (V
COLD
to V
HOT
), charging is suspended. The timers
maintain their values but suspend counting. When the voltage measured at TS returns to within the operation
window, charging is resumed and the timers continue counting. When charging is suspended due to a battery
pack temperature fault, the CHG pin remains low and continues to indicate charging.
For the bq24072 and bq24073, battery pack temperature sensing is disabled when termination is disabled (TD =
High) and the voltage at TS is greater than V
DIS(TS)
. For applications that do not require the TS monitoring
function, connect a 10kΩ resistor from TS to VSS to set the TS voltage at a valid level and maintain charging.
The allowed temperature range for 103AT-2 type thermistor is 0°C to 50°C. However, the user may increase the
range by adding two external resistors. See Figure 42 for the circuit details. The values for Rs and Rp are
calculated using the following equations:
