PRODUCTION DATA.
The integrating delta-sigma ADC (CC) in the companion bq769x0 AFE measures the charge/discharge flow of the battery by measuring the voltage drop across a small-value sense resistor between the SRP and SRN pins. The 15-bit integrating ADC measures bipolar signals from –0.20 V to 0.20 V with 15-µV resolution. The AFE reports charge activity when VSR = V(SRP) – V(SRN) is positive, and discharge activity when VSR = V(SRP) – V(SRN) is negative. The bq78350-R1 device continuously monitors the measured current and integrates the digital signal from the AFE over time, using an internal counter.
To support large battery configurations, the current data can be scaled to ensure accurate reporting through the SMBus. The data reported is scaled based on the setting of the SpecificationInfo() command.
