Single-cell fuel gauge with 1-Wire access
The Maxim DS2788E+ is a battery monitor IC designed for single-cell Lithium Ion/Polymer packs, communicating over a 1-Wire interface. It reports remaining capacity, voltage, temperature, and current to a host controller using minimal pins — useful in portable equipment where board space is tight and the battery is removable or embedded. The 14-TSSOP package keeps the footprint small, and the -20°C to 70°C operating range covers consumer and commercial portable products, not extended industrial or automotive environments.
What the ratings mean for fit
The single-cell count is the hard boundary — this part monitors one series cell only. If your BOM calls for a 2S or 3S pack, you need a different monitor or an external cell-balancing front-end.
Lifecycle and sourcing
ROHS3 compliant.
