This device supports two operational modes, one
for normal operation, and one used for host configuration.
- NORMAL mode: In this mode, the device evaluates system current, cell voltages, internal and thermistor temperature, and various diagnostic checks, operates protections as configured, and provides interrupt
and status updates. Battery protections are enabled, and the FET drivers are typically enabled (in the absence of any protection fault).
- SHUTDOWN mode: The device is completely disabled (including the internal 1.8 V and REGOUT LDOs), the CHG and DSG FETs are both disabled, all battery protections are disabled, and no protections are
evaluated. This is the lowest power state of the device, which can be used for shipment or long-term storage. All register settings (other than settings programmed into OTP by TI) are lost when in SHUTDOWN mode.
The device also includes a CONFIG_UPDATE mode,
which is used for parameter updates. Transitioning between operational modes is shown in
BQ77307 Operational Power Modes.
