BQ25882: Battery Check

Part Number: BQ25882

Hi e2e team.

I have a question.

How can I know battery attach or not?

Is there any register? or Only TS pin?

  • Hi Jake,

    There is no standalone battery detect circuit. However, with the following algorithm implemented in firmware, you can determine if a battery is present:
    1. disable charge with charge enable bit REG0x06b3 or rely on TS fault disable charge
    2. enable IBAT(DISCHARGE)=14mA using REG0x02b6 for at least 5ms
    3. read the BAT ADC voltage in REG1D-1E assuming ADC has been enabled in REG0x15b7
    if BAT ADC voltage is close to 0 then no battery is attached.

    Regards,
    Jeff
