BQ76940: USED WITHOUT SHUNT

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ76940

My application will not accomidate a shunt.  Can I use the BQ76940 without a shunt?  If so what do I do with the SRP and SRN pins on the chip?  I was planing to use a hall effect current sensor direct to the micro

  • If not using the shunt, recommend to  tie SRP and  SRN to the device VSS.

    Use of the Hall effect output ( typically digital) into the micro is a good idea as long there is adequate

    bandwidth to the inputs of the digital I/O of the micro.

    thanks
