JAJSSH0 December 2023 BQ77307
PRODUCTION DATA
The BQ77307 can be configured to operate in a completely standalone mode, without any host processor in the system, or together with a host processor. If in standalone mode, the device can monitor conditions, control FETs based on threshold settings, and recover FETs when conditions allow, all without requiring any interaction with an external processor. If a host processor is present, the device can still be configured to operate fully autonomously, while the host processor can read status information and exercise control as desired. Alternatively, the device can be configured for manual host control, such that the device can monitor and provide a flag when a protection alert or fault has occurred, but will rely on the host to disable FETs. Using the device in standalone mode requires that all settings are programmed into the OTP by TI. This is only available for cases involving a significant shipment volume. Please contact your TI sales representative for information on this option.
The BQ77307 can also be entirely configured by a host processor writing all settings to the device's internal registers across the serial communications interface, without requiring any OTP programming. Using this approach, settings must be reloaded from the host each time the device is reset or enters SHUTDOWN mode and is restarted.
