PRODUCTION DATA
This device monitors the voltage of the battery connected between BAT pin and VSS pin and the differential voltage between V– pin and VSS pin to control charging and discharging. The system is operating in NORMAL mode when the battery voltage range is between the over-discharge detection threshold (VUVP) and the overcharge detection threshold (VOVP), and the V– pin voltage is within the range for charge overcurrent threshold (VOCC) to over-discharge current threshold (VOCD) when measured with respect to VSS. If these conditions are satisfied, the device turns ON the drive for COUT and DOUT FET control.
When the battery is connected for the first time, the discharging circuit might not be enabled. In this case, short the V– pin to the VSS pin.
Alternatively, connect the charger between the Pack+ and Pack– terminals in the system.
