8.5. Low Battery Detector
A low battery detector (LBD) with digital read-out is integrated into the chip. A digital threshold may be programmed
into the lbdt[4:0] field in "Register 1Ah. Low Battery Detector Threshold". When the digitized battery voltage
reaches this threshold an interrupt will be generated on the nIRQ pin to the microcontroller. The microcontroller will
then need to verify the interrupt by reading "Register 03h. Interrupt/Status 1" and “Register 04h. Interrupt/Status 2,”
on page 87.
If the LBD is enabled while the chip is in SLEEP mode, it will automatically enable the RC oscillator which will
periodically turn on the LBD circuit to measure the battery voltage. The battery voltage may also be read out
through "Register 1Bh. Battery Voltage Level" at any time when the LBD is enabled. The Low Battery Detect
function is enabled by setting enlbd=1 in "Register 07h. Operating Mode and Function Control 1".
The LBD output is digitized by a 5-bit ADC. When the LBD function is enabled, enlbd = 1 in "Register 07h.
Operating Mode and Function Control 1", the battery voltage may be read at anytime by reading "Register 1Bh.
Battery Voltage Level". A Battery Voltage Threshold may be programmed to register 1Ah. When the battery voltage
level drops below the battery voltage threshold an interrupt will be generated on nIRQ pin to the microcontroller if
the LBD interrupt is enabled in “Register 06h. Interrupt Enable 2,” on page 90. The microcontroller will then need to
verify the interrupt by reading the interrupt status register, Addresses 03 and 04H. The LSB step size for the LBD
ADC is 50 mV, with the ADC range demonstrated in the table below. If the LBD is enabled the LBD and ADC will
automatically be enabled every 1 s for approximately 250 µs to measure the voltage which minimizes the current
consumption in Sensor mode. Before an interrupt is activated four consecutive readings are required.
