The BQ76PL536APAPT is a Li-ion Battery Monitor and Secondary Protection IC for electric and hybrid. It integrates an analog front end (AFE) along with a precision analog-to-digital converter (ADC), used to precisely measure battery cell voltages. A separate ADC is used to measure temperature. In addition to temperature measurement, overvoltage and under-voltage are monitored per channel for protection. Non-volatile memory stores the user-programmable protection thresholds and delay times. A FAULT output signals whenever one of these thresholds is exceeded. Cell stacks of 192 cells can be supported by stacked BQ76PL536A devices. A high-speed SPI interface connects all devices.
