Frequently Asked Questions
What battery chemistries does the BQ2040SN-C408 support?
The BQ2040SN-C408 supports both Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) and Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery chemistries. It can manage 1 to 4 series-connected cells and uses programmable chemistry profiles stored in EEPROM to accurately estimate remaining capacity for each chemistry type.
What communication interface does the BQ2040SN-C408 use?
The BQ2040SN-C408 uses the SMBus (System Management Bus) interface, which is compatible with I2C. This allows the IC to communicate battery status data—including state of charge, voltage, current, and temperature—to a host system following the SBS 1.1 smart battery specification.
What is the typical application for the BQ2040SN-C408?
The BQ2040SN-C408 is typically used in smart battery packs for laptops, portable medical devices, power tools, and industrial handheld equipment. Its SBS-compliant gas gauging and SMBus interface make it ideal for any application requiring accurate battery monitoring and state-of-health reporting.
What package does the BQ2040SN-C408 come in?
The BQ2040SN-C408 is available in an SOIC package. The 'SN' suffix in Texas Instruments part numbers typically denotes the SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) surface-mount package, which is suitable for automated PCB assembly in compact battery management designs.
