The bq77910 precision protector is an integrated battery-protection and cell-balancing solution for Li-Ion battery packs. A single device can be configured to manage 4 to 10 cell battery packs. Two devices can be stacked to provide a solution for packs up to 20 cells in series.

This protection IC monitors individual cell voltages and can directly drive N-channel power MOSFETs to interrupt current flow during fault conditions. Fault detection and recovery criteria are fully programmable in non-volatile memory to suit all types of Li-Ion systems.Automatic cell balancing is provided using internal FETs. A robust balancing algorithm ensures optimum performance over the entire operating life of the pack.

bq77910主要特性:

4 ~ 10 series cell protection capability

Individual cell monitoring and balancing with internal FETs

NMOS power FET direct drive capability with flexible FET configuration

Compatible with 1 or 5 milliohm sense resistor

bq77910EVM-001评估模块

The bq77910EVM-001 evaluation module (EVM) is a complete evaluation system for the bq77910, a four=to ten-cell Li-ion battery protection integrated circuit. The EVM consists of a bq77910 circuit module and a resistor cell simulator module which can be used for simple evaluation of the bq77910 functions. The circuit module includes one bq77910 integrated circuit (IC), sense resistor, power FETs and all other onboard components necessary to protect the cells from overcharge, over discharge, short circuit, and over current discharge in a 10 series cell Li-ion or Li-polymer battery pack. The circuit module connects directly across the cells in a battery. With a compatible interface board and Windows™-based PC software, the user can view the bq77910 registers and program the IC configuration and protection limits

If a designer wants to communicate with this EVM from a Windows-based PC, a separate USB Interface Adapter EVM is recommended. The USB-TO-GPIO Adapter serves as an interface adapter or a bridge between a host PC (IBM compatible) and one or multiple slave devices via a standard type-A to mini-B USB cable. The USB-TO-GPIO Adapter is listed below in the related tools section
