General Description Features
The MAX6782–MAX6790 are low-power, 1% accurate,
dual-/triple-/quad-level battery monitors offered in small
TDFN and TQFN packages. These devices are ideal for
monitoring single lithium-ion (Li+) cells, or multicell alka-
line/NiCd/NiMH power sources. These devices feature
fixed and adjustable hysteresis options to eliminate out-
put chattering associated with battery-voltage monitors.
The MAX6782/MAX6783 offer four battery monitors in a
single package with factory-set (0.5%, 5%, 10%) or
adjustable hysteresis. The MAX6784/MAX6785 provide
three battery monitors with factory-set (0.5%, 5%, 10%)
or adjustable hysteresis. The MAX6786/MAX6787/
MAX6788 offer two battery monitors with external inputs
for setting the rising and falling thresholds, allowing
external hysteresis control. The MAX6789/MAX6790 fea-
ture quad-level overvoltage detectors with complemen-
tary outputs.
The MAX6782–MAX6790 are offered with either open-drain
or push-pull outputs. The MAX6782/MAX6784/MAX6786/
MAX6789 are available with push-pull outputs while the
MAX6783/MAX6785/MAX6787/MAX6790 are available with
open-drain outputs. The MAX6788 is available with one
open-drain output and one push-pull output (see the
Selector Guide
). This family of devices is offered in space-
saving TDFN and TQFN packages and is fully specified
over the -40°C to +8C extended temperature range.

MAX6789/MAX6790
Detailed Description
The MAX6782–MAX6788 are designed to monitor two
to four battery levels (1% accuracy) and assert an
active-low output indicator when the monitored voltage
level falls below the user-set threshold. Each battery
level is associated with an independent open-drain or
push-pull output. Each of these independent outputs
can be used to provide low battery warnings at differ-
ent voltage levels. Each of these monitored levels offers
fixed or adjustable hysteresis in order to prevent the
output from chattering as the battery recovers from the
lighter loads. The MAX6782–MAX6785 also feature ref-
erence outputs that can source up to 1mA.
The MAX6789/MAX6790 monitor four overvoltage con-
ditions and assert the complementary overvoltage out-
puts when any voltage at the inputs exceeds its
respective threshold. The MAX6789/MAX6790 allow
each trip threshold to be set with external resistors.
These devices also feature a latch and a clear function.
Figures 1, 2, and 3 show the simplified block diagrams
for the MAX6782–MAX6790. See the
Selector Guide

Low-Battery/Overvoltage Output
All devices are offered with either push-pull or open-
drain outputs (see the
Selector Guide
). The MAX6788
has one push-pull output and one open-drain output,
configured as shown in Table 1.
All open-drain outputs require an external pullup resis-
tor. The open-drain pullup resistor may be connected
to an external voltage up to +6V, regardless of the volt-
age at BATT.
Hysteresis
Input hysteresis defines two thresholds, separated by
the hysteresis voltage, configured so the output asserts
when the input falls below the falling threshold, and
deasserts only when the input rises above the rising
threshold. Figures 4 and 5 show this graphically.
Hysteresis removes, or greatly reduces, the possibility
of the output changing state in response to noise or
battery-terminal voltage recovery after load removal.

MAX6782–MAX6785 Hysteresis
Factory-Set Hysteresis
The MAX6782–MAX6785 have factory-set hysteresis for
ease of use and reduced external parts count. For
these devices the absolute hysteresis voltage is a per-
centage of the internally generated reference. The
amount depends on the device option. “A” devices
have 0.5% hysteresis, “B” devices have 5% hysteresis,
and “C” devices have 10% hysteresis. Table 2 presents
the threshold voltages for devices with factory-set hys-
teresis. For factory-set hysteresis, connect HADJ_ to
GND.
Externally Adjusted Hysteresis
The MAX6782–MAX6785 can also be configured for
externally adjustable hysteresis. Connect a resistive
divider from REF to HADJ_ and to GND (Figure 6) to set
the hysteresis voltage. The hysteresis adjustment range
is from 0.4V to VREF, and the voltage at HADJ_
(VHADJ_) must be set higher than Hysteresis
Adjustment Logic High (VHALH) (Figure 4b). Note that if
VHADJ_ is lower than Hysteresis Adjustment Logic Low
(VHALL), these devices switch back to the internal fac-
tory-set hysteresis (Figure 4a).

Hysteresis
The MAX6786/MAX6787/MAX6788 offer external hystere-
sis control through the resistive divider that monitors bat-
tery voltage. Figure 2 shows the connections for external
hysteresis. See

Thresholds for MAX6782–MAX6785
(HADJ_ = GND)
Reference Output
The reference output can provide up to 1mA of output
current. The output is not buffered. Excessive loading
affects the accuracy of the thresholds. An external
capacitor is not required for stability and is stable for
capacitive loads up to 50pF. In applications where the
load or the supply can experience step changes, a
capacitor reduces the amount of overshoot (under-
shoot) and improves the circuit’s transient response.
Place the capacitor as close to the device as possible
for best performance.
Applications Information
Resistor-Value Selection
Choosing the proper external resistors is a balance
between accuracy and power use. The input to the volt-
age monitor, while high impedance, draws a small cur-
rent, and that current travels through the resistive
divider, introducing error. If extremely high resistor val-
ues are used, this current introduces significant error.
With extremely low resistor values, the error becomes
negligible, but the resistive divider draws more power
from the battery than necessary, and shortens battery
life. See Figure 6 and calculate the optimum value for
R1 using:
where eAis the fraction of the maximum acceptable
absolute resistive divider error attributable to the input
leakage current (use 0.01 for 1%), VBATT is the battery
voltage at which LBO should activate, and ILis the
worst-case IN_ leakage current, from the
Electrical
Characteristics
. For example, for 0.5% error, a 2.8V
battery minimum, and 5nA leakage, R1= 2.80M.
Calculate R2using:
where VINF is the falling threshold voltage from Table 2.
Continuing the above example, and selecting VINF =
0.5477V (10% hysteresis device), R2= 681k. There
are other sources of error for the battery threshold,
including resistor and input monitor tolerances.
Calculating an External Hysteresis
Resistive Divider (MAX6782–MAX6785)
To set the hysteresis, place a resistive divider from REF
to HADJ_ as shown in Figure 6. The resistive divider
sets voltage on HADJ_, which controls the falling thresh-
old (VINF) on the associated IN_ (the rising threshold
(VINR) is fixed). See Table 2. Calculate R3using:
where eAis the fraction of the maximum acceptable
absolute resistive divider error attributable to the input
leakage current (use 0.01 for 1%), VREF is the refer-
ence output voltage, and ILis the worst-case HADJ_
leakage current. Calculate R4using:
where VINF is the desired falling voltage threshold. To
calculate the percent hysteresis, use:
where VINR is the rising voltage.
Calculating an External
Hysteresis Resistive Divider
(MAX6786/MAX6787/MAX6788)
Setting the hysteresis externally requires calculating
three resistor values, as indicated in Figure 2. First cal-
culate R1using:
and R20 using:
where R20 = R2+ RHYST determine the total resistive-
divider current, ITOTAL, at the trip voltage using:
Then, determine RHYST using:
where VHYST is the required hysteresis voltage.
Finally, determine R2using:

Monitoring a Battery Voltage Higher
than the Allowable VBATT
For monitoring higher voltages, supply a voltage to BATT,
which is within the specified supply range, and power the
input resistive divider from the high voltage to be moni-
tored. Do not exceed the Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Maintaining Reference Accuracy
Since the ground connection of the MAX6782–MAX6790
has a small series resistance, any current flowing into an
output flows to ground and causes a small voltage to
develop from the internal ground to GND. This has the
effect of slightly increasing the reference voltage. To mini-
mize the effect on the reference voltage, keep the total
output sink current below 3mA.
Adding External Capacitance to Reduce
Noise and Transients
If monitoring voltages in a noisy environment, add a
bypass capacitor of 0.1µF from BATT to GND as close
as possible to the device. For systems with large tran-
sients, additional capacitance may be required.
Reverse-Battery Protection
To prevent damage to the device during a reverse-battery
condition, connect the MAX6782–MAX6785 in the configu-
ration shown in Figure 6a or 6b. For the internal reverse-
battery protection to function correctly on the MAX6782–
MAX6790, several conditions must be satisfied:
The connections to IN_/LBL_/LBH_ must be made to
the center node of a resistive divider going from
BATT to GND. The Thevenin equivalent impedance
of the resistive divider must not fall below 1kin
order to limit the current.
HADJ_ (MAX6782–MAX6785 only) must either be
connected to GND or to the center node of a resis-
tive divider going from REF to GND.
The outputs may only be connected to devices pow-
ered by the same battery as the MAX6782–
MAX6790.
Note that the MAX6782–MAX6790 will not protect other
devices in the circuit.
