PIN DETAILS
Description
The voltage sensing for each cell is done independently using a multiplexer. The method of overvoltage detection
is comparing the voltage to an overvoltage protection voltage V
OV
. Once the voltage exceeds the programmed
fixed value, the delay timer circuit is activated. This delay (t
DELAY
) is fixed for either a 4-s or 6.5-s delay. When
these conditions are satisfied, the OUT terminal is transitioned to a high level. This output (OUT) is released to a
low condition if all of the cell inputs (Vx) are below the OVP threshold minus the Vhys.

Sense Positive Input for Vx
This is an input to sense each single battery cell voltage. A series resistor and a capacitor across the cell for
each input is required for noise filtering and stable voltage monitoring.
Output Drive, OUT
The gate of an external N-Channel MOSFET is connected to this terminal. This output transitions to a high level
when an overvoltage condition is detected and after the programmed delay timer. The out will reset to a low level
if the cell voltage falls below the V
OV
threshold before the fixed delay timer expires.
Supply Input, VDD
This terminal is the unregulated input power source for the IC. A series resistor is connected to limit the current,
and a capacitor is connected to ground for noise filtering.
