DS2762K
Li+ Battery Monitor Evaluation Kit
www.maxim-ic.com
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The DS2762K evaluation kit makes performance
evaluation, software development, and prototyping
with the DS2762 Lithium-Ion (Li+) battery monitor
easy. The evaluation board interfaces to a PC
through a DS9123 serial-port adapter and RJ-11
cable connection. The provided CD ROM contains all
related data sheets along with the evaluation
software, which can be run under any Windows廬
operating system.
The DS2762K evaluation software gives the user
complete control of all functions of the DS2762.
Separate control tabs allow the user access to all
EEPROM and RAM memory locations, all control
registers, and real-time updates of all monitored
parameters. The software also incorporates a data-
logging feature to monitor a cell over time and fuel-
gauging algorithms to improve remaining capacity
calculations based on specific cell characteristics.
The evaluation board circuit is designed to provide
the DS2762 with accurate parameter measurements,
allow the DS2762 to disable charging or discharging,
and protect the DS2762 from ESD damage. Kit
demonstration boards will vary as they are improved
upon over time. For information on the demonstration
board circuits, refer to the individual board
data sheets located inside the documentation
directory on the DS2762K CD ROM.
