5 Description (continued)

The BQ77915 device provides pack protection through the integrated independent CHG and DSG low-side NMOS FET drivers, which are disabled through two control pins. These control pins also enable cell protection for higher series (6 series and beyond) in an economical manner. To do this, cascade a higher device CHG and DSG outputs to the immediate lower device control pins. For added flexibility, program the discharge overcurrent protection delays with a resistor connected from the OCDP pin to VSS.

The BQ77915 protector maintains a smart, passive cell-balancing algorithm through integrated FETs for cell balancing currents up to 50 mA. For higher cell-balancing current requirements, connect external FETs. A HIBERNATE mode for shipping and storing the battery packs enables ultra-low power operation.

The BQ77915 protector is for battery packs where no host monitoring is required.
