THEORY OF OPERATION  
the LTC6802-2 makes no decisions about turning on/off  
the internal MOSFETs. This is completely controlled by  
the host processor. The host processor writes values to a  
configuration register inside the LTC6802-2 to control the  
switches. The watchdog timer on the LTC6802-2 can be  
used to turn off the discharge switches if communication  
with the host processor is interrupted.  
The LTC6802-2 is a data acquisition IC capable of mea-  
suring the voltage of 12 series connected battery cells.  
An input multiplexer connects the batteries to a 12-bit  
delta-sigma analog to digital converter (ADC). An internal  
5ppm voltage reference combined with the ADC give the  
LTC6802-2 its outstanding measurement accuracy. The  
inherent benefits of the delta-sigma ADC vs other types  
of ADCs (e.g. successive approximation) are explained  
in Advantages of Delta-Sigma ADCs in the Applications  
Information section.  
OPEN-CONNECTION DETECTION  
When a cell input (C pin) is open, it affects 2-cell measure-  
ments. Figure 2 shows an open connection to C3, in an  
applicationwithoutexternallteringbetweentheCpinsand  
the cells. During normal ADC conversions (that is, using  
the STCVAD command), the LTC6802 will give near zero  
readings for B3 and B4 when C3 is open. The zero reading  
for B3 occurs because during the measurement of B3,  
the ADC input resistance will pull C3 to the C2 potential.  
Similarly, during the measurement of B4, the ADC input  
resistance pulls C3 to the C4 potential.  
Communication between the LTC6802-2 and a host pro-  
cessor is handled by a SPI compatible serial interface.  
Multiple LTC6802-2s can be connected to a single serial  
interface. This is shown in Figure 1. The LTC6802-2s are  
isolated from one another using digital isolators. A unique  
addressingschemeallowsallLTC6802-2stoconnecttothe  
sameserialportofthehostprocessor. Furtherexplanation  
of the LTC6802-2 can be found in the Serial Port section  
of the data sheet.  
Figure 3 shows an open connection at the same point in  
the cell stack as Figure 2, but this time there is an external  
filternetworkstillconnectedtoC3.Dependingonthevalue  
of the capacitor remaining on C3, a normal measurement  
of B3 and B4 may not give near zero readings, since the  
C3 pin is not truly open. In fact, with a large external ca-  
pacitance on C3, the C3 voltage will be charged midway  
The LTC6802-2 also contains circuitry to balance cell volt-  
ages. Internal MOSFETs can be used to discharge cells.  
TheseinternalMOSFETscanalsobeusedtocontrolexternal  
balancing circuits. Figure 1 illustrates cell balancing by  
internal discharge. Figure 4 shows the S pin controlling

Figure 3, with the STOWAD command, the C3 pin will be  
pulled down by the 100µA current source during the B3  
cell measurement AND during the B4 cell measurement.  
This will tend to decrease the B3 measurement result and  
increase the B4 measurement result relative to the normal

The 200mV threshold is chosen to provide tolerance for  
errors in the measurement with the 100µA current source  
connected. Even without an open connection there is al-  
ways some difference between a cell measured with and  
without the 100µA current source because of the IR drop  
across the finite resistance of the MUX switches. On the  
other hand, with capacitors larger then 0.1µF remaining  
on an otherwise open C pin, the 100µA current source  
may not be enough to move the open C pin 200mV with  
a single STOWAD command. If the STOWAD command  
is repeated several times, the large external capacitor  
will discharge enough to create a 200mV change in cell  
readings. To detect an open connection with larger then  
0.1µF capacitance still on the pin, one must repeat step 3  
a number of times before proceeding to step 4.

The algorithm above determines if the Cn pin is open

C3 and C4 (cell B4).  
pin is also floating. When this happens, the readings for  
the top battery cell will always be 0V, indicating a failure.  
+
If the top C pin is open yet V is still connected, then the  
best way to detect an open connection to the top C pin  
is by comparing the sum of all cell measurements using  
the STCVAD command to an auxiliary measurement of the  
sum of all the cells, using a method similar to that shown  
in Figure 15. A significantly lower result for the calculated  
sum of all 12 cells suggests an open connection to the top  
C pin, provided it was already determined that no other  
C pin is open.

open connection to cell pin Cn:

POWER DISSIPATION AND THERMAL SHUTDOWN  
TheMOSFETsconnectedtothePinsS1throughS12canbe

beusedtolimitthepowerdissipatedbytheMOSFETs. The  
maximum power dissipation in the MOSFETs is limited by  
theamountofheatthatcanbetoleratedbytheLTC6802-2.  
Excessive heat results in elevated die temperatures. The  
electrical characteristics are guaranteed for die tempera-  
tures up to 85°C. Little or no degradation will be observed  
in the measurement accuracy for die temperatures up  
to 105°C. Damage may occur near 150°C, therefore the  
recommended maximum die temperature is 125°C.  
All discharge switches are automatically disabled during  
OV and UV comparison measurements.  
A/D CONVERTER DIGITAL SELF TEST  
Two self-test commands can be used to verify the func-  
tionality of the digital portions of the ADC. The self tests  
also verify the cell voltage registers and cell temperature  
registers. During these self tests a test signal is applied  
to the ADC. If the circuitry is working properly the cell  
voltage or cell temperature registers will contain identi-  
cal codes. For self test 1 the registers will contain 0x555.  
For self test 2, the registers will contain 0xAAA. The time  
required for the self-test function is the same as required  
to measure all cell voltages or all temperature sensors.  
Perform the self-test function with CDC[2:0] set to 1 in  
the configuration register.

occurred, the THSD bit in the temperature register group  
will go high. The bit is cleared by performing a read of the  
temperature registers (RDTMP command).  
USING THE S PINS AS DIGITAL OUTPUTS OR

The S outputs include an internal 10k pull-up resistor.

The minimum number of cells is governed by the supply

specifications are met.

tions, e.g., 9 cells, would be configured in the same way:  
the lowest C inputs connected to the battery cells and the  
+
unused C inputs connected to V . The unused inputs will  
result in a reading of 0V for those channels.  
When the MMB pin is low, the GPIO pins and the WDTB  
pin are treated as inputs that set the number of cells to  
be monitored. See the Monitor Mode section.  
The ADC can also be commanded to measure a stack of  
cellsbymaking10or12measurements, dependingonthe  
state of the CELL10 bit in the control register. Data from all  
10 or 12 measurements must be downloaded when read-

WATCHDOG TIMER CIRCUIT  
The LTC6802-2 includes a watchdog timer circuit. If no  
activity is detected on the SCKI pin for 2.5 seconds, the  
WDTB open-drain output is asserted low. The WDTB pin  
remains low until an edge is detected on the SCKI pin.

In the power-up state, the S outputs are off. Therefore, the  
watchdogtimerprovidesameanstoturnoffcelldischarg-  
ing should communications to the MPU be interrupted.  
The IC is in the minimum power standby mode after a  
time out. Note that externally pulling the WDTB pin low  
will not reset the configuration bits.

REVISION CODE

The temperature register group contains a 3-bit revision  
code. If software detection of device revision is neces-  
sary, then contact the factory for details. Otherwise, the  
code can be ignored. In all cases, however, the values of  
all bits must be used when calculating the packet error  
code (PEC) CRC byte on data reads.

MODES OF OPERATION  
If fewer than 12 cells are connected to the LTC6802-2  
then it is necessary to mask the unused input channels.  
The MCxI bits in the configuration registers are used to  
mask channels. If the CELL10 bit is high, then the inputs  
for cells 11 and 12 are automatically masked.  
The LTC6802-2 has three modes of operation: standby,  
measureandmonitor.Standbymodeisapowersavingstate  
where all circuits except the serial interface are turned off.  
In measure mode, the LTC6802-2 is used to measure cell  
voltages and store the results in memory. Measure mode  
will also monitor each cell voltage for overvoltage (OV)  
and undervoltage (UV) conditions. In monitor mode, the  
device will only monitor cells for UV and OV conditions.  
A signal is output on the SDO pin to indicate the UV/OV  
status. The serial interface is disabled.  
The LTC6802-2 can monitor UV and OV conditions con-  
tinuously. Alternatively, the duty cycle of the UV and OV  
comparisons can be reduced or turned off to lower the  
overall power consumption. The CDC bits are used to  
control the duty cycle.  
To initiate cell voltage measurements while in measure  
mode, a Start A/D Conversion and Poll Status command  
must be sent. After the command has been sent, the  
LTC6802-2 will send the A/D converter status using either  
thetogglepollingorthelevelpollingmethod, asdescribed  
in the Serial Port section. If the CELL10 bit is high, then  
only the bottom 10 cell voltages will be measured, thereby  
reducing power consumption and measurement time. By  
default the CELL10 bit is low, enabling measurement of all  
12 cell voltages. During cell voltage measurement com-  
mands, UV and OV flag conditions, reflected in the flag  
registergroup,arealsoupdated.Whenthemeasurements  
are complete, the part will go back to monitoring UV and  
OV conditions at the rate designated by the CDC bits.  
Standby Mode  
The LTC6802-2 defaults (powers up) to standby mode.  
Standby mode is the lowest possible supply current state.  
All circuits are turned off except the serial interface and  
the voltage regulator. The LTC6802-2 can be programmed  
for standby mode by setting configuration bits CDC[2:0]  
to 0. If the part is put into standby mode while ADC  
measurements are in progress, the measurements will  
be interrupted and the cell voltage registers will be in an  
indeterminate state. To exit standby mode, the CDC bits  
must be written to a value other than 0.  
Measure Mode  
Monitor Mode  
The LTC6802-2 is in measure mode when the CDC bits are  
programmed with a value from 1 to 7. The IC monitors  
each cell voltage and produces an interrupt signal on the  
SDO pin indicating all cell voltages are within the UV and  
OV limits. There are two methods for indicating the UV/OV  
interruptstatus:togglepolling(usinga1kHzoutputsignal)  
and level polling (using a high or low output signal). The  
polling methods are described in the Serial Port section.  
The LTC6802-2 can be used as a simple monitoring circuit  
with no serial interface by pulling the MMB pin low. When  
in this mode, the interrupt status is indicated on the SDO  
pin using the toggle polling mode described in the Serial  
Portsection.Unlikeserialportpollingcommands,however,  
the toggling is independent of the state of the CSBI pin.  
When the MMB pin is low, all the device configuration  
values are reset to the default states shown in Table 15  
Memory Bit Descriptions. When MMB is held low the  
VUV, VOV, and CDC register values are ignored. Instead  
VUV and VOV use factory-programmed setings. CDC is  
The UV/OV limits are set by the VUV and VOV values in  
the configuration registers. When a cell voltage exceeds  
the UV/OV limits a bit is set in the flag register. The UV  
and OV flag status for each cell can be determined using  
the Read Flag Register Group.

by the logic levels on the WDTB and GPIO pins, as shown

Clock Phase And Polarity: The LTC6802-2 SPI compat-  
ible interface is configured to operate in a system using  
CPHA = 1 and CPOL = 1. Consequently, data on SDI must  
be stable during the rising edge of SCKI.  
Cells 1 to 8

Cells 1 to 10  
Cells 1 to 11

Data Transfers: Every byte consists of 8 bits. Bytes are  
transferred with the most significant bit (MSB) first. On a  
write, the data value on SDI is latched into the device on  
the rising edge of SCKI (Figure 6). Similarly, on a read,  
the data value output on SDO is valid during the rising  
edge of SCKI and transitions on the falling edge of SCKI  
(Figure 7).  
If MMB is low then brought high, all device configuration  
values are reset to the default states including the VUV,  
VOV, and CDC configuration bits.  
SERIAL PORT  
Overview  
CSBI must remain low for the entire duration of a com-  
mand sequence, including between a command byte and  
subsequent data. On a write command, data is latched in  
on the rising edge of CSBI.  
The LTC6802-2 has an SPI bus compatible serial port.  
Devicescanbeconnectedinparallel,usingdigitalisolators.  
Multiple devices are uniquely identified by a part address  
determined by the A0 to A3 pins.  
Afterapollingcommandhasbeenentered,theSDOoutput  
will immediately be driven by the polling state, with the  
SCKI input ignored (Figure 8). See the Toggle Polling and  
Level Polling sections.  
Physical Layer  
On the LTC6802-2, four pins comprise the serial interface:  
CSBI, SCKI, SDI and SDO. The SDO and SDI may be tied  
together, if desired, to form a single, bidirectional port.  
Four address pins (A0 to A3) set the part address for ad-  
dress commands. The TOS pin designates the top device  
Network Layer  
Broadcast Commands: A broadcast command is one to  
which all devices on the bus will respond, regardless of  
device address. See the Bus Protocols and Commands  
sections.

With broadcast commands all devices can be sent com-  
mands simultaneously. This is useful for A/D conversion  
and polling commands. It can also be used with write  
commands when all parts are being written with the same  
data. Broadcast read commands should not be used in  
the parallel configuration.  
PEC Byte: The packet error code (PEC) byte is a CRC  
value calculated for all of the bits in a register group in  
the order they are read, using the following characteristic  
polynomial:  
8
2
x + x + x + 1  
On a read command, after sending the last byte of a reg-  
ister group, the device will shift out the calculated PEC,  
MSB first.  
Address Commands: An address command is one in  
which only the addressed device on the bus responds.  
The first byte of an address command consists of 4 bits  
with a value of 1000 and 4 address bits. The second byte  
is the command byte. See the Bus Protocols and Com-  
mands section.  
Toggle Polling: Toggle polling allows a robust determina-  
tion both of device states and of the integrity of the con-  
nections between the devices in a stack. Toggle polling  
68022fa  
ꢀꢆ  
LTC6802-2  
applicaTions inForMaTion  
is enabled when the LVLPL bit is low. After entering a  
polling command, the data out line will be driven by the  
slave devices based on their status. When polling for the  
A/D converter status, data out will be low when any device  
is busy performing an A/D conversion and will toggle at  
1kHz when no device is busy. Similarly, when polling for  
interrupt status, the output will be low when any device  
has an interrupt condition and will toggle at 1kHz when  
none has an interrupt condition.  
Levelpolling—ParallelBroadcastPolling:Nopartaddress  
is sent, so all devices respond simultaneously. If a device  
is busy/in interrupt, it will pull SDO low. If a device is not  
busy/not in interrupt, then it will release the SDO line. If  
any device is busy or in interrupt the SDO signal will be  
low. If all devices are not busy/not in interrupt, the SDO  
signal will be high.  
The master controller pulls CSBI high to exit polling.  
Polling Methods: For A/D conversions, three methods can  
beusedtodetermineA/Dcompletion.First,acontrollercan  
start an A/D conversion and wait for the specified conver-  
sion time to pass before reading the results. The second  
method is to hold CSBI low after an A/D start command  
has been sent. The A/D conversion status will be output  
on SDO. A problem with the second method is that the  
controller is not free to do other serial communication  
while waiting for A/D conversions to complete. The third  
methodovercomesthislimitation.Thecontrollercansend  
an A/D start command, perform other tasks, and then  
send a Poll A/D Converter Status (PLADC) command to  
determine the status of the A/D conversions.  
Toggle Polling—Address Polling: The addressed device  
drives the SDO line based on its state alone—low for  
busy/in interrupt, toggling at 1kHz for not busy/not in  
interrupt.  
Toggle Polling—Parallel Broadcast Polling: No part  
address is sent, so all devices respond simultaneously.  
If a device is busy/in interrupt, it will pull SDO low. If a  
device is not busy/not in interrupt, then it will release the  
SDO line (TOS = 0) or attempt to toggle the SDO line at  
1kHz (TOS =1).  
The master controller pulls CSBI high to exit polling.  
Level polling: Level polling is enabled when the LVLPL  
bit is high. After entering a polling command, the data  
out line will be driven by the slave devices based on their  
status. When polling for the A/D converter status, data  
out will be low when any device is busy performing an  
A/D conversion and will be high when no device is busy.  
Similarly, when polling for interrupt status, the output will  
be low when any device has an interrupt condition and will  
be high when none has an interrupt condition.  
ForOV/UVinterruptstatus,thepollinterruptstatus(PLINT)  
command can be used to quickly determine whether  
any cell in a stack is in an overvoltage or undervoltage  
condition.

SERIAL COMMAND  
Example for LTC6802-2 (Addressable Configuration)  
Examples below use a configuration of three stacked  
devices: bottom (B), middle (M), and top (T)  
Write Configuration Registers (Broadcast Command)  
1. Pull CSBI low  
2. Send WRCFG command byte  
3. Send CFGR0 byte, then CFGR1, CFGR2, … CFGR5 (All devices on bus receive same data)  
4. Pull CSBI high; data latched into all devices on rising edge of CSBI  
Calculation of serial interface time for sequence above:  
Number of devices in stack= N  
Number of bytes in sequence = B = 1 command byte and 6 data bytes  
Serial port frequency per bit = F  
Time = (1/F) * B * 8 bits/byte = (1/F) * (1+6) * 8

5. Pull CSBI high  
6. Repeat steps 1-5 for middle device and top device  
Calculation of serial interface time for sequence above:  
Number of devices in stack= N  
Number of bytes in sequence = B = 1 address, 1 command, 18 register, and 1 PEC byte per device = 21*N  
Serial port frequency per bit = F  
Time = (1/F) * B * 8 bits/byte = (1/F) * (21*N) * 8  
Time for 3-cell stacks example above, with 1MHz serial port = (1/1000000) * (21*3)*8 = 504us

of all Zeners is 0.5V. Refer to this diagram in the event of  
unpredictable voltage clamping or current flow. Limiting  
the current flow at any pin to 10mA will prevent damage  
to the IC.  
Each pin of the LTC6802-2 has protection diodes to help  
prevent damage to the internal device structures caused  
by external application of voltages beyond the supply rails  
as shown in Figure 9.  
The diodes shown are conventional silicon diodes with a  
forward breakdown voltage of 0.5V. The unlabeled Zener  
diode structures have a reverse-breakdown characteristic  
which initially breaks down at 12V then snaps back to a 7V

provided in the ADC timing, so a 16kHz LP is optimal and  
offers about 30dB of noise rejection.

measurement of the cells in the event of a malfunction in  
the normal acquisition process, or as a faster means of  
monitoring the entire stack potential. Figure 15 shows  
a means of providing both of these features. A resistor  
divider is used to provide a low voltage representation of  
the full stack potential (C12 to C0 voltage) with MOSFETs  
that decouple the divider current under unneeded condi-  
tions. Other MOSFETs, in conjunction with an op amp  
having a shutdown mode, form a voltage selector that  
allows measurement of the normal cell1 potential (when  
GPIO1 is low) or a buffered MUX signal. When the MUX  
is active (GPIO1 is high), selection can be made between  
the reference (4.096V) or the full-stack voltage divider  
(GPOI2 set low will select the reference). During idle time  
when the LTC6802-2 WDTB signal goes low, the external  
circuitry goes into a power-down condition, reducing  
battery drain to a minimum. When not actively perform-  
ing measurements, GPIO1 should be set low and GPIO2  
should be set high to achieve the lowest power state for  
the configuration shown.

ADVANTAGES OF DELTA-SIGMA ADCS  
required for each channel. A low frequency filter cannot  
reside between a multiplexer and an ADC and achieve a  
high scan rate across multiple channels. Another conse-  
quence of filtering a SAR ADC is that any noise reduction  
gained by filtering the input cancels the benefit of having  
a high sample rate in the first place, since the filter will  
take many conversion cycles to settle.  
The LTC6802-2 employs a delta-sigma analog-to-digital  
converter for voltage measurement. The architecture of  
delta-sigma converters can vary considerably, but the  
common characteristic is that the input is sampled many  
times over the course of a conversion and then filtered or  
averaged to produce the digital output code. In contrast,  
a SAR converter takes a single snapshot of the input  
voltage and then performs the conversion on this single  
sample. For measurements in a noisy environment, a  
delta-sigma converter provides distinct advantages over  
a SAR converter.  
For a given sample rate, a delta-sigma converter can  
achieve excellent noise rejection while settling completely  
inasingleconversion—somethingthatalteredSARcon-  
verter cannot do. Noise rejection is particularly important  
in high voltage switching controllers, where switching  
noise will invariably be present in the measured voltage.  
Other advantages of delta sigma converters are that they  
are inherently monotonic, meaning they have no missing  
codes, and they have excellent DC specifications.  
WhileSARconverterscanhavehighsamplerates, thefull-  
power bandwidth of a SAR converter is often greater than  
1MHz, which means the converter is sensitive to noise out  
to this frequency. And many SAR converters have much  
higher bandwidths—up to 50MHz and beyond. It is pos-  
sible to filter the input, but if the converter is multiplexed

Converter Details  
is applied to the LTC6802-2 input, the increase in noise  
seen at the digital output will be the same as an ADC with  
a wide bandwidth (such as a SAR) preceded by a perfect  
1350Hz brickwall lowpass filter.  
The LTC6802-2’s ADC has a second-order delta-sigma  
modulator followed by a Sinc2, finite impulse response  
(FIR) digital filter. The front-end sample rate is 512ksps,  
which greatly reduces input filtering requirements. A  
simple 16kHz, 1-pole filter composed of a 100Ω resistor  
and a 0.1μF capacitor at each input will provide adequate  
filtering for most applications. These component values  
will not degrade the DC accuracy of the ADC.  
Thus if an analog filter is placed in front of a SAR converter  
toachievethesamenoiserejectionastheLTC6802-2ADC,  
the SAR will have a slower response to input signals. For  
example,astepinputappliedtotheinputofthe850Hzlter  
will take 1.55ms to settle to 12 bits of precision, while the  
LTC6802-2 ADC settles in a single 1ms conversion cycle.  
Thisalsomeansthatveryhighsampleratesdonotprovide  
any additional information because the analog filter limits  
the frequency response.  
Each conversion consists of two phases—an autozero  
phase and a measurement phase. The ADC is autozeroed  
at each conversion, greatly improving CMRR. The second  
half of the conversion is the actual measurement.  
While higher order active filters may provide some im-  
provement, their complexity makes them impractical for  
high-channel count measurements as a single filter would  
be required for each input.  
Noise Rejection  
Figure 18 shows the frequency response of the ADC. The  
roll-off follows a Sinc2 response, with the first notch at  
4kHz. Also shown is the response of a 1-pole, 850Hz filter  
(187μs time constant) which has the same integrated  
response to wideband noise as the LTC6802-2’s ADC,  
which is about 1350Hz. This means that if wideband noise  
Also note that the Sinc2 response has a 2nd order roll-off
