7.6.8.1 Fixed Offset Adjustment

To obtain finalized cell measurement values, the host processor performs a fixed offset adjustment by subtracting fixed per-cell offset values from the reported cell measurement results.

The per-cell offset values are the same for all devices and do not require measurement of each device on the customer production line.

Two sets of offset adjustment values are provided as follows:

  • One set optimized for LFP cells, with cell voltages ranging from 2 V to 3.7 V
  • A second set optimized for Li-ion cells, with cell voltages ranging from 2 V to 4.5 V

The two sets of optimized offset values are described below.

Table 7-1 Fixed Offset Adjustment Values Optimized for LFP Cells
OFFSET VALUE CELL 1 OFFSET CELL 2 OFFSET CELL 3 OFFSET CELL 4 OFFSET CELL 5 OFFSET CELL 6 OFFSET CELL 7 OFFSET CELL 8 OFFSET
OFFSET (mV) –0.6 –0.8 –0.8 –0.8 –0.5 –0.6 –0.6 –0.6
OFFSET VALUE CELL 9 OFFSET CELL 10 OFFSET CELL 11 OFFSET CELL 12 OFFSET CELL 13 OFFSET CELL 14 OFFSET CELL 15 OFFSET CELL 16 OFFSET
OFFSET (mV) –0.3 –0.4 –0.1 –0.1 –1.3 –1.1 –1.2 –0.7
Table 7-2 Fixed Offset Adjustment Values Optimized for Li-ion Cells
OFFSET VALUE CELL 1 OFFSET CELL 2 OFFSET CELL 3 OFFSET CELL 4 OFFSET CELL 5 OFFSET CELL 6 OFFSET CELL 7 OFFSET CELL 8 OFFSET
OFFSET (mV) –0.7 –1.0 –0.9 –1.0 –0.6 –0.7 –0.8 –0.9
OFFSET VALUE CELL 9 OFFSET CELL 10 OFFSET CELL 11 OFFSET CELL 12 OFFSET CELL 13 OFFSET CELL 14 OFFSET CELL 15 OFFSET CELL 16 OFFSET
OFFSET (mV) 0.2 0.0 –0.2 –0.4 1.1 0.8 0.7 0.1

During operation, the cell measurements are read from the BQ76972 as Cell 1 Voltage(), Cell 2 Voltage(), and so on. The host then calculates adjusted values for each cell voltage:

  • Final Cell 1 Voltage = Cell 1 Voltage() – Cell 1 Offset
  • Final Cell 2 Voltage = Cell 2 Voltage() – Cell 2 Offset
  • and so forth
All devices use the same 16 values for Cell 1 Offset, Cell 2 Offset, and so on.
