Resetting BQ3060

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ3060, EV2400

Is there a way to reset BQ3060 with a push button?

Here is the problem I have:

My PRES pin is tied low with pull down resistor.

My battery has a 4 pin connector. When I insert the battery, BQ3060 enters into an error state and turns the FETs off.

I can't communicate using my mcu because the FETs that provide power to my mcu are turned off.

If I use EV2400 and send a reset command, it reboots and everything starts working as it is supposed to.

The battery is not supposed to be removed all the time, but in case I need to remove it, I'd like to have an easy way to reset BQ3060 when I reconnect the battery without having to plug into a computer through EV2400.

Any thoughts?

  • The device does not have an external reset option. You can short the REG27 to Vss and reset the device. We do not recommend do ing this as a normal course of action, but it can be used in an emergency. The regulator has a current limit, so it this should not damage the device.
