monitoring IC that includes a 12-bit ADC, a precision
voltage reference, a high voltage input multiplexer and
a serial interface. Each LTC6803 can measure up to 12
series-connected battery cells or supercapacitors. Using a
unique level shifting serial interface, multiple LTC6803-1/
LTC6803-3 devices can be connected in series, without
opto-couplers or isolators, allowing for monitoring of every
cell in a long string of series-connected batteries. Each cell
input has an associated MOSFET switch for discharging
overcharged cells. The LTC6803-1 connects the bottom
of the stack to V
–
internally. It is pin compatible with the
LTC6802-1, providing a drop-in upgrade. The LTC6803-3
separates the bottom of the stack from V
–
, improving
cell 1 measurement accuracy.
The LTC6803 provides a standby mode to reduce supply
current to 12µA. Furthermore, the LTC6803 can be powered
from an isolated supply, providing a technique to reduce
battery stack current draw to zero.
For applications requiring individually addressable serial
communications, see the LTC6803-2/LTC6803-4.

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 2:
The ADC specifications are guaranteed by the Total Measurement
Error (V
ERR
) specification.
Note 3:
Due to the contact resistance of the production tester, this
specification is tested to relaxed limits. The 20Ω limit is guaranteed by
design.
Note 4:
V
CELL
refers to the voltage applied across Cn to Cn – 1 for
n
= 1 to 12. V
TEMP
refers to the voltage applied from V
TEMP1
or V
TEMP2
to V
–
.
Note 5:
These absolute maximum ratings apply provided that the voltage
between inputs do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings.
Note 6:
Supply current is tested during continuous measuring. The supply
current during periodic measuring (130ms, 500ms, 2s) is guaranteed by
design.
Note 7:
The CDC = 5, 6 and 7 supply currents are not measured. They are
guaranteed by the CDC = 2 supply current measurement.
Note 8:
Limit is determined by high speed automated test capability.
