General Description

The DS2775–DS2778 report available capacity for
rechargeable lithium-ion (Li+) and Li+ polymer (Li-Poly)
batteries in mAh and as a percentage of full. Safe oper-
ation is ensured by the integrated Li+ protector. The
DS2776/DS2778 support SHA-1-based challenge-
response authentication in addition to all other DS2775/
DS2777 features.

Precision measurements of voltage, temperature, and
current, along with a cell characteristics table and
application parameters, are used for capacity estima-
tion calculations. The capacity registers report a con-
servative estimate of the amount of charge that can be
removed given the current temperature, discharge rate,
stored charge, and application parameters.

The DS2775–DS2778 operate from +4.0V to +9.2V for
direct integration into battery packs with two Li+ or Li-
Poly cells.

In addition to nonvolatile storage for cell compensation
and application parameters, the DS2775–DS2778 offer
16 bytes of EEPROM for use by the host system and/or
pack manufacturer to store battery lot and date tracking
information. The EEPROM can also be used for non-
volatile storage of system and/or battery usage statis-
tics. A Maxim 1-Wire

®

(DS2775/DS2776) or 2-wire

(DS2777/DS2778) interface provides serial communica-
tion to access measurement and capacity data regis-
ters, control registers, and user memory. The
DS2776/DS2778 use the SHA-1 hash algorithm in a
challenge-response pack authentication protocol for
battery-pack verification.
