DESCRIPTION
The LTC
®
6802-1 is a complete battery monitoring IC that
includes a 12-bit ADC, a precision voltage reference, a
high voltage input multiplexer and a serial interface. Each
LTC6802-1 can measure up to 12 series connected bat-
tery cells with an input common mode voltage up to 60V.
In addition, multiple LTC6802-1 devices can be placed in
series to monitor the voltage of each cell in a long battery
string. The unique level-shifting serial interface allows the
serial ports of these devices to be daisy-chained without
optocouplers or isolators.
When multiple LTC6802-1 devices are connected in series
they can operate simultaneously, permitting all cell voltages
in the stack to be measured within 13ms.
To minimize power, the LTC6802-1 offers a measure mode,
which simply monitors each cell for overvoltage and un-
dervoltage conditions. A standby mode is also provided.
Each cell input has an associated MOSFET switch for
discharging overcharged cells.
For large battery stack applications requiring individually
addressable serial communications, see the LTC6802-2.

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

refers to the voltage applied across the following pin
combinations: Cn to Cn-1 for n = 2 to 12, C1 to V

TEMP
refers to the
voltage applied from V

Note 5:
These absolute maximum ratings apply provided that the voltage
between inputs do not exceed their absolute maximum ratings.
