Datasheet

General Description
The DS2788 measures voltage, temperature, and cur-
rent, and estimates available capacity for rechargeable
lithium-ion (Li+) and Li+ polymer batteries. Cell charac-
teristics and application parameters used in the calcu-
lations are stored in on-chip EEPROM. The available
capacity registers report a conservative estimate of the
amount of charge that can be removed given the cur-
rent temperature, discharge rate, stored charge, and
application parameters. Capacity estimation is reported
in mAh remaining and percentage of full.
LED display drivers and a debounced input make dis-
play of the capacity information easy. The LED pins can
directly sink current, requiring only a resistor for setting
the current in the LED display, thus reducing space and
cost.
