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
applicationwithoutexternalfilteringbetweentheCpinsand
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

The 200mV threshold is chosen to provide tolerance for

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 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:

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.

The minimum number of cells is governed by the supply

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

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

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.

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.

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

LTC6802-2

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
Time for 3 cell stacks example above, with 1MHz serial port = (1/1000000) * (1+6)*8 = 56us
Read Cell Voltage Registers (Address Command)
1. Pull CSBI low
2. Send Address byte for bottom device
3. Send RDCV command byte
4. Read CVR00 byte of bottom device, then CVR01 (B), CVR02 (B), … CVR17 (B), and then PEC (B)
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
Start Cell Voltage A/D Conversions and Poll Status (Broadcast Command with Toggle Polling)
1. Pull CSBI low
2. Send STCVAD command byte (all devices in stack start A/D conversions simultaneously)
3. SDO output of all devices in parallel pulled low for approximately 12ms
4. SDO output toggles at 1kHz rate, indicating conversions complete for all devices
5. Pull CSBI high to exit polling

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

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

its analog-to-digital conversions and provides a conver-

respect to the delta-sigma modulator rate of 512kHz. This

the filter relatively high will allow adequate settling prior
to the actual conversion. A guard time of about 60µs is
provided in the ADC timing, so a 16kHz LP is optimal and
offers about 30dB of noise rejection.

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—somethingthatafilteredSARcon-
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
68022fa

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,astepinputappliedtotheinputofthe850Hzfilter
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
