C Battery Gas Gauge
with Internal Sense Resistor
The LTC
®
2941-1 measures battery charge state in battery-
powered handheld PC and portable product applications.
Its operating range is perfectly suited for single cell Li-Ion
batteries. A precision coulomb counter integrates current
through an internal sense resistor between the batterys
positive terminal and the load or charger. The measured
charge is stored in internal registers. An SMBus/I
2
C in-
terface accesses and configures the device.
The LTC2941-1 features programmable high and low
thresholds for accumulated charge. If a threshold is ex-
ceeded, the device communicates an alert using either the
SMBus alert protocol or by setting a flag in the internal
status register.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.

Note 4: The equivalent charge of an LSB in the accumulated charge
registers (C,D) depends on the setting of the internal pre-scaling factor M.
It is calculated by:

= 0.085mAh
M
128
See Choosing Coulomb Counter Prescaler M section for more information.
1mAh = 3.6A • s = 3.6C (Coulomb), 0.085mAh = 306mC.
Note 5: Deviation of q

from its nominal value. Data is for a new device
and does not include long-term sense resistor aging. See the Internal
Sense Resistor section for more information.
Note 6: C

= capacitance of one bus line in pF (10pF ≤ C

≤ 400pF).
Note 7: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 8: Value decreases if exposed pad is soldered to large copper area.
