EVM WARNINGS AND RESTRICTIONS
It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of 3 V and 25 V, with a
maximum voltage drop across the sense resistor of 250 mV (1−W power dissipation).
Exceeding the specified input range may cause unexpected operation and/or irreversible
damage to the EVM. If there are questions concerning the input range, please contact a TI
field representative prior to connecting the input power.
Applying loads outside of the specified output range may result in unintended operation and/or
possible permanent damage to the EVM. Please consult the EVM User’s Guide prior to
connecting any load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the load specification,
please contact a TI field representative.
During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than
60°C. The EVM is designed to operate properly with certain components above 60°C as long
as the input and output ranges are maintained. These components include but are not limited
to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense resistors. These
types of devices can be identified using the EVM schematic located in the EVM User’s Guide.
When placing measurement probes near these devices during operation, please be aware
that these devices may be very warm to the touch.

Introduction
Introduction
This EVM is a complete evaluation system for the bq2060A battery
management system. The bq2060A is backwards compatible with the
bq2060. New features in the bq2060A can be accessed from the EEPROM
screen in the EV2200-60 software.
For this document bq2060AEVM-00X is used for both the bq2060AEVM-001
and the bq2060AEVM-002.

1.1 Overview
The EVM includes one bq2060A circuit module, a current sense resistor, a
thermistor, an EV2200 PC interface board for gas gauge interface, a PC serial
cable, and an EEPROM connector. The latest windows based EV2200-60 PC
software can be downloaded from the TI web site. The circuit module includes
one bq2060A IC and all other onboard components necessary to monitor and
predict capacity of Li-Ion or Li-Polymer (bq2060AEVM-001) or NiMH
(bq2060AEVM-002) cells. Protection for Li-Ion or Li-Polymer cells is not in-
cluded on this module. The circuit module connects directly across the cells
in a battery. With the EV2200 interface board and software, the user can read
the bq2060A data registers, program the chipset for different pack configura-
tions, log cycling data for further evaluation and evaluate the overall functional-
ity of the bq2060A solution under different charge and discharge conditions.
1.2 Features
-Complete evaluation system for the bq2060A SBS 1.1 compliant
advanced gas gauge
-Populated circuit module for quick setup

bq2060A-Based Circuit Module
bq2060A-Based Circuit Module
The bq2060A-based circuit module includes all components required for a
complete battery management solution. It includes the bq2060A gas gauge
IC, 24LC01 EEPROM and other components to accurately predict and monitor
capacity of NiMH, Li-Ion, and Li-Polymer cells.
Contacts on the circuit module provide direct connection to the cells (BAT−, 1P,
2P, 3P, BAT+) and the serial communications port (SMBC, SMBC). The
system load and charger connect across PACK+ and PACK−.
The SAFE output reflects the state of the safety output from the bq2060A and
has extra ESD protection just for evaluation purposes.

4.1 Software Installation
Follow these steps to install the EV2200-60 software from the included disks:
1) Insert disk 1 into a 3 1/2 inch floppy drive.
2) Select the 3 1/2 inch drive using My Computer or File Manager.
3) Double-click on the Setup.exe icon.
4) The setup program prompts for the remaining disks and installs a
Windows application group.
Follow these steps to install the latest EV2200-60 software downloaded from
the TI website: www.ti.com
1) Unzip the self-extracting EXE file to a temporary directory.
2) Double-click on the Setup.exe icon.
3) Follow the onscreen instructions and the setup program will install a
Windows application group.
4.2 Hardware Connection
The four hardware components of the bq2060AEVM-00X are: the bq2060A
circuit module, the EEPROM interface connector, the EV2200 PC interface
board, and the PC.
4.2.1 Connecting the bq2060A Circuit Module to a Battery Pack
Figure 4−1 and Figure 4−2 show how to connect the bq2060A circuit module
to the cells and system load/charger. Connect the cells in the following order.
NOTE: The cell terminal connections not listed below should remain open.
-4-Cell LION Pack:
JConnect the PACK+ terminal to the Cell4P terminal on the
bq2060AEVM-00X module.
JConnect the BAT−terminal to the negative side of the bottom (first)
cell.
JConnect the Cell4P terminal to the positive side of the top (fourth) cell.
JConnect the Cell1 terminal to the positive side of the first cell.
JConnect the Cell2 terminal to the positive side of the second cell.
JConnect the Cell3 terminal to the positive side of the third cell.
-3-Cell LION Pack:
JConnect the PACK+ terminal to the Cell3P terminal on the
bq2060AEVM-00X module.
JConnect the BAT−terminal to the negative side of the bottom (first)
cell.
JConnect the Cell3P terminal to the positive side of the top (third) cell.
JConnect the Cell1 terminal to the positive side of the first cell.
JConnect the Cell2 terminal to the positive side of the second cell.
