Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ76200, BQ78350, BQ78350-R1, BQ76920, BQ76940, BQ76930, BQSTUDIO
Hello,
I have a few questions about the basic use of the BQ76930EVM along side the BQ76200EVM. For our project, it was tested that there needed to be 8 MOSFETs to handle the power going into the BMS board and this required the extra MOSFET driver on the BQ76200EVM.
1) On the user guides for both of the evaluation boards, it does not give specific instructions on how to exactly to hook up both boards and I was wondering if someone can help clarify that?
2) Since there are 8 MOSFETs needed (5 for discharge path, 3 for charge path) is there a way to hook them up in a chain on the BQ76200EVM?
3) If that is possible, which path on the board would be for charging and which path would be the discharge path?
4) What is the best way to configure the BMS to change between charging and discharging based off of a selected threshold?
I appreciate any help on really getting started on assembling this system, thank you.
