Battery monitor with I²C readout for Li-Ion packs
The DS2786G+T&R is a dedicated battery monitor IC from Analog Devices, designed for single-cell Lithium Ion/Polymer packs. It reports voltage, current, temperature, and remaining capacity over an I²C serial bus, making it a fit for portable instruments, medical devices, and handheld terminals where the host processor needs real-time fuel-gauging data without a separate ADC channel.
Package and temperature grade
The operating temperature range is -20°C to 70°C, which covers indoor and most commercial portable environments but not extended automotive or industrial extremes.
