The second order delta-sigma ADC in the gauge measures cell temperature via an external thermistor at 1-s intervals in NORMAL mode and Voltage Time-second intervals in SLEEP mode. This data is translated into 0.1 K using the parameters in Cell Temp Model and reported through Temperature() if Temperature Enable[TS1] = 1. The cell temperature can be used for gauging and lifetime data logging functions if Temperature Enable[TS1] = 1.
The cell temperature measurement requires an external 10-kΩ negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor, such as the Semitec 103AT–2, connected between VSS and the TS pin.
