PRODUCTION DATA
This device is used as a bridge (base) device in daisy chain configuration, as showed in figure below. It communicates with MCU through UART or SPI and communicates with stack devices through daisy chain (proprietary interface). MCU always initiates communication with a Command frame. In the system, BQ devices would never send data back to MCU before MCU requests. And MCU needs to wait all expected response frames before sending next command frame. Thus, communication scenarios can be put into 2 categories:
Rest of the section talks about how data and tone are communicated among host, bridge, and stack devices: Section 7.3.2.1 (Section 7.3.2.1.1 and Section 7.3.2.1.2 protocol), Section 7.3.2.2. It also talks about Section 7.3.2.3 and Section 7.3.2.4.
