FUNCTION CTL: Function Control Register
CELL SEL: Cell Select Register

SLUS629A – JANUARY 2005 – REVISED AUGUST 2005
FUNCTION CTL REGISTER (0x03)
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
0 0 TOUT XSCD SSCC XOL PACKOUT VMEN
The FUNCTION CTL register enables and disables functions of the bq29312A.
FUNCTION CTL b0 (VMEN): This bit enables or disables the cell and battery voltage monitoring function.
0 = disable voltage monitoring (default). CELL output is pulled down to GND level.
1 = enable voltage monitoring.
FUNCTION CTL b1 (PACKOUT): This bit is used to translate the PACK input to the CELL pin when VMEN=1.
The pack voltage is divided by 25 and is presented on CELL regardless of the CELL_SEL register settings.
0 = disable PACK OUT (default).
1 = enable PACK OUT.
FUNCTION CTL b2 (XOL): This bit enables or disables the overcurrent sense function.
0 = enable overload sense (default).
1 = disable overload sense.
FUNCTION CTL b3 (XSCC): This bit enables or disables the short current sense function of charging.
0 = enable short-circuit current sense in charge direction (default).
1 = disable short-circuit current sense in charge direction.
FUNCTION CTL b4 (XSCD): This bit enables or disables the short current sense function of discharge.
0 = enable short-circuit current sense in discharge direction (default).
1 = disable short-circuit current sense in discharge direction.
FUNCTION CTL b5 (TOUT): This bit controls the power to the thermistor.
0 = thermistor power is off (default).
1 = thermistor power is on.
CELL_SEL REGISTER (0x04)
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
CB3 CB2 CB1 CB0 CAL1 CAL0 CELL1 CELL0
This register determines cell selection for voltage measurement and translation, cell balancing, and the
operational mode of the cell voltage monitoring.
CELL_SEL b0–b1 (CELL0–CELL1): These two bits select the series cell for voltage measurement translation.
CELL1 CELL0 SELECTED CELL
0 0 VC4–VC5, Bottom series element (default)
0 1 VC4–VC3, Second lowest series element
1 0 VC3–VC2, Second highest series element
1 1 VC1–VC2, Top series element
CELL_SEL b2–b3 (CAL1, CAL0): These bits determine the mode of the voltage monitor block.
CAL1 CAL0 SELECTED MODE
0 0 Cell translation for selected cell (default)
0 1 Offset measurement for selected cell
1 0 Monitor the V
REF
value for gain calibration
1 1 Monitor the V
REF
directly value for gain calibration, bypassing the translation circuit
