SLUSE14B December 2020 – December 2021 BQ76942
PRODUCTION DATA
The BQ76942 device can be used with 3-series to 10-series battery packs, supporting a top-of-stack voltage ranging from 5 V up to 55 V. To design and implement a comprehensive set of parameters for a specific battery pack, during development the user can utilize Battery Management Studio (BQSTUDIO), which is a graphical user-interface tool installed on a PC. Using BQSTUDIO, the device can be configured for specific application requirements during development once the system parameters, such as fault trigger thresholds for protection, enable or disable of certain features for operation, configuration of cells, and more are known. This results in a "golden image" of settings, which can then be programmed into the device registers or OTP memory.
