CBAL8 CBAL7 CBAL6 CELL5 CBAL4 CBAL3 CBAL2 CBAL1
The CELL_BALANCE register controls cell balancing of the bq77PL900.
CELL_BALANCE b7(CBAL8): This bit enables VC3 – VC4 cell balance charge bypass path.
CELL_BALANCE b6(CBAL7): This bit enables VC4 – VC5 cell balance charge bypass path.
CELL_BALANCE b5(CBAL6): This bit enables VC5 – VC6 cell balance charge bypass path.
CELL_BALANCE b4(CBAL5): This bit enables VC6 – VC7 cell balance charge bypass path.
CELL_BALANCE b3(CBAL4): This bit enables VC7 – VC8 cell balance charge bypass path.
CELL_BALANCE b2(CBAL3): This bit enables VC8 – VC9 cell balance charge bypass path.
CELL_BALANCE b1(CBAL2): This bit enables VC9 – VC10 cell balance charge bypass path.
CELL_BALANCE b0(CBAL1): This bit enables VC10 – VC11 cell balance charge bypass path.
0 = Disable series cell balance charge bypass path (default).
1 = Enable series cell balance charge bypass path.
CELL_SEL REGISTER (0x05)

0 CAL2 CAL1 CAL0 CELL4 CELL3 CELL2 CELL1
The CELL_SEL register determines the cell selection for voltage measurement and translation. The register also
determines operation mode of the cell voltage monitoring.
The CELL_SEL b6 – b4 (CAL2 – CAL0) bits should be 0 when VAEN(b0) in register 3 is changed from 0 to 1 or the
VOUT pin will not go active.
This register is don ’ t care when either BAT(b4) or PACK(b3) is set or VAEN(b0) is cleared in register 3.
CELL_SEL b3 – b0 (CELL4 – 1): These four bits select the series cell for voltage measurement translation.
These are don ’ t care when CAL2 – 0 are not equal to 0x0.
