SLUUCJ0 November 2023 BQ76907
The BQ76907 device integrates a voltage ADC which is multiplexed between measurements of cell voltages, an internal temperature sensor, the TS pin, and also performs measurements of the voltage at the VC7 pin, the internal 1.8 V LDO (REG18) voltage, and the VSS rail (for diagnostic purposes). The BQ76907 device supports measurement of individual differential cell voltages in a series configuration, ranging from 2 series cells to 7 series cells. Each cell voltage measurement is a differential measurement of the voltage between two adjacent cell input pins, such as VC1-VC0, VC2-VC1, and so forth. The cell voltage measurements are processed based on trim corrections, and then reported in 16-bit resolution using units of 1 mV. The cell voltage measurements can support a recommended voltage range from -0.2 V to 5.5 V. The voltage ADC saturates at a level of 5 × VREF1 (approximately 5.98 V) when measuring cell voltages, although for best performance it is recommended to stay at a maximum input of 5.5 V.
The 16-bit cell and VC7 (Stack), VSS pin, and REG18 voltage measurements are available by using the commands listed below.
