The MPF42790 from Monolithic Power Systems is a drop-in solution to provide comprehensive status information on lithium-ion battery strings up to 16 series cells. The MPF42790 estimates the internal state of charge (SOC) and state of health (SOH) for each cell, as well as the full pack. The MPF42790 also determines remaining runtime, charge time, and instantaneous available power. On-board memory enables the lifetime logging of key parameters.
The MPF42790 is simple to use and supports a variety of lithium cell chemistries and cell sizes. A few basic configurations allow for quick set-up, and advanced configuration capabilities can fine-tune the device for specific applications.
When paired with an MP279x battery monitor, the MPF42790 can achieve SOC accuracy within 3%. The MPF42790 can also be paired with other analog front-end (AFE) or battery stack monitors. The 400 kHz I2C interface provides standard, robust communication. The 5-level LED drivers provide a simple, cost-effective charge level indicator for the device.
The MPF42790 is available in a TQFN-32 (4 mm x 4 mm) package.
