DESCRIPTION
The bq2920x device is a secondary overvoltage protection IC for 2-series cell lithium-ion battery packs that
incorporates a high-accuracy precision overvoltage detection circuit and automatic cell imbalance correction.
The voltage of each cell in a 2-series cell battery pack is compared to an internal reference voltage. If either cell
reaches an overvoltage condition, the bq2920x device starts a timer that provides a delay proportional to the
capacitance on the CD pin. Upon expiration of the internal timer, the OUT pin changes from low to high state.
If enabled, the bq2920x performs automatic cell imbalance correction where the two cells are automatically
corrected for voltage imbalance by loading the cell with the higher charge voltage with a small balancing current.
When the cells are measured to be equal within nominally 0 mV, the load current is removed. It will be re-applied
if the imbalance exceeds nominally 30 mV. The cell mismatch correction circuitry is enabled by pulling the
CB_EN pin low, and disabled when CB_EN is pulled to VDD or greater than 2.2 V.
If the internal cell balancing current of up to 15 mA is insufficient, the bq2920x may be configured via external
circuitry to support much higher external cell balancing current.
