PRODUCTION DATA
The BQ76905 uses a special CONFIG_UPDATE mode to make changes to the data memory settings. If changes were made to the data memory settings while the normal measurement and protection functions were in operation, it could result in unexpected operation or consequences if settings used by the logic changed in the midst of operation. Changes to the data memory settings should generally only be done on the customer manufacturing line or in an offline condition, such as immediately after being powered from SHUTDOWN.
When in CONFIG_UPDATE mode, the device stops normal operation and stops all measurements and protection monitoring. The host can then make changes to data memory settings. After changes are complete, the host then sends the command to exit CONFIG_UPDATE mode, at which point the device restarts normal operation using the new data memory settings. For more information, see the BQ76905 Technical Reference Manual.
