PRODUCTION DATA
The device uses I2C compatible interface for flexible charging parameter programming and instantaneous device status reporting. I2C is a bi-directional 2-wire serial interface. Only two open-drain bus lines are required: a serial data line (SDA), and a serial clock line (SCL). Devices can be considered as controllers or targets when performing data transfers. A controller is a device which initiates a data transfer on the bus and generates the clock signals to permit that transfer. At that time, any device addressed is considered a target.
The device operates as a target device with address 0x6A, receiving control inputs from the controller device like a micro-controller or digital signal processor through the registers defined in the Register Map. Registers read outside those defined in the map, return 0xFF. The I2C interface supports standard mode (up to 100 kbits/s), fast mode (up to 400 kbits/s), and fast mode plus (up to 1 Mbit/s). When the bus is free, both lines are HIGH. The SDA and SCL pins are open drain and must be connected to the positive supply voltage via a current source or pull-up resistor.
System Note: All 16-bit registers are defined as Little Endian, with the most-significant byte allocated to the higher address. 16-bit register writes must be done sequentially and are recommended to be programmed using multi-write approach described in the Section 8.3.10.7.
