FRDM33771BTPLEVB NXP Semiconductors Featuring the MC33771B battery cell controller IC Figure 3. VCOM LED The VCOM LED indicates when the device is in normal mode. Upon reset, the MC33771B enters into normal mode (VCOM turns on). If there is no activity on the bus after a timeout period of 60 seconds, the device enters low-power idle mode (VCOM turns off). Once the device is initialized, if no communication occurs on the TPL bus after one second, the device resets and the LED turns off (VCOM off).

FRDM33664BEVB 6 Configuring the hardware 6.1 Battery stack connection A minimum of 7 cells and a maximum of 14 cells can be monitored. NXP provides a 14cell battery emulator board, BATT-14EMULATOR. This board provides an intuitive way to change the voltage across any of the 14 cells of an emulated battery pack as well as the voltage across an emulated current sense shunt resistor.
FRDM33771BTPLEVB NXP Semiconductors Featuring the MC33771B battery cell controller IC Figure 7. Battery stack connection 6.2 Jumper connection One hand-soldered jumper (J22) on the EVB is used to set the GPIO0 pin input. In position 1-2 (default), the NTC (NTC1) is connected to GPIO0 pin of the MC33771B. This input can be used as analog input. If the jumper is placed in position 2-3, the GPIO0 can be used as fault input for fault daisy chain function.
