SLUUBY1B December 2020 – April 2022 BQ76942
The BQ76942 device includes a separate hardware monitor circuit which determines if the LFO oscillator frequency deviates excessively from its expected value. If such a deviation is detected, the device can trigger a Permanent Fail (PF) and disable the battery pack. This PF can be enabled by setting the Settings:Permanent Failure:Enabled PF C[LFOF] configuration bit.
