DESCRIPTION
LTC3337
Primary Battery SOH Monitor with
Precision Coulomb Counter
Demonstration circuit 2973A shows the
LTC
®
3337
Primary Battery State of Health (SOH) monitor with pre-
cision coulomb counter operating with a configurable
peak current limit. The LTC3337 supports input voltages
from 1.8V to 5.5V and a peak current up to 100mA with a
quiescent current of 100nA. Coulomb count, battery volt-
age, and Battery Series Resistance (BSR) are measurable
and can be used to quantify the charge state and health
of a battery.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
BOARD PHOTO
The DC2973A demonstrates a simple layout for the high-
est-power configuration of the LTC3337. The circuit can
be reduced for lower I
PEAK
levels. The demo board can
be connected directly to a PC using a micro USB cable in
order to run a GUI and configure simple a Battery State of
Charge (SOC) monitor. Source code for the GUI is avail-
able and can be used as a starting point for LTC3337
firmware development.
Design files for this circuit board are available
