General Description
The bq2002 and bq2002/F Fast-Charge
ICs are low-cost CMOS battery-charge
controllers providing reliable charge
termination for both NiCd and NiMH
battery applications. Controlling a
current-limited or constant-current
supply allows the bq2002/F to be the
basis for a cost-effective stand-alone or
system-integrated charger. The
bq2002/F integrates fast charge with
optional top-off and pulsed-trickle con-
trol in a single IC for charging one or
more NiCd or NiMH battery cells.
Fast charge is initiated on application
of the charging supply or battery re-
placement. For safety, fast charge is
inhibited if the battery temperature
and voltage are outside configured
limits.
Fast charge is terminated by any of
the following:

Maximum temperature
Maximum time

After fast charge, the bq2002/F op-
tionally tops-off and pulse-trickles the
battery per the pre-configured limits.
Fast charge may be inhibited using
the INH pin. The bq2002/F may also
be placed in low-standby-power mode
to reduce system power consumption.
T h e bq 20 02 F d if f e rs f r om t h e
bq2002 only in that a slightly differ-
ent set of fast-charge and top-off
time limits is available. All differ-
ences between the two ICs are illus-
trated in Table 1.

Pin Descriptions
TM
Timer mode input
A three-level input that controls the settings
for the fast charge safety timer, voltage ter-
mination mode, top-off, pulse-trickle, and
voltage hold-off time.
LED
Charging output status
Open-drain output that indicates the charging
status.
BAT
Battery input voltage
The battery voltage sense input. The input to
this pin is created by a high-impedance re-
sistor divider network connected between
the positive and negative terminals of the
battery.
V
SS
TS
System ground
Temperature sense input
Input for an external battery temperature
monitoring thermistor.
V
CC
Supply voltage input
5.0V
±
20% power input.
INH
Charge inhibit input
When high, INH suspends the fast charge in
progress. When returned low, the IC re-
sumes operation at the point where initially
suspended.
CC
Charge control output
An open-drain output used to control the
charging current to the battery. CC switch-
ing to high impedance (Z) enables charging
current to flow, and low to inhibit charging
current. CC is modulated to provide top-off,
if enabled, and pulse trickle.
Functional Description
Figure 2 shows a state diagram and Figure 3 shows a
block diagram of the bq2002/F.
Battery Voltage and Temperature
Measurements
Battery voltage and temperature are monitored for
maximum allowable values. The voltage presented on
the battery sense input, BAT, should represent a
single-cell potential for the battery under charge. A
resistor-divider ratio of
RB1
=N-1
RB2
is recommended to maintain the battery voltage within
the valid range, where N is the number of cells, RB1 is
the resistor connected to the positive battery terminal,
and RB2 is the resistor connected to the negative bat-
tery terminal. See Figure 1.
Note:
This resistor-divider network input impedance to
end-to-end should be at least 200kΩ and less than 1 MΩ.
A ground-referenced negative temperature coefficient
thermistor placed near the battery may be used as a low-
cost temperature-to-voltage transducer. The temperature
sense voltage input at TS is developed using a resistor-
thermistor network between V
CC
and V
SS
. See Figure 1.
