How is the hysteresis of Over Voltage of a certain part number different from the hysteresis of cell balancing of the same part? I am referring to the Device Comparison Tables in the Datasheet.

Hi Aparna,
The over voltage hysteresis defines where the part releases the overvoltage state after the OV condition. The cell balancing hysteresis VOV - VFC defines a VFC point where balancing will change mode. See table 1 and table 2 of the BQ77915 data sheet for a summary of settings available. VFC is the point the part thinks is the full charge value of the cells or the charger cell voltage target. There is a video to help explain balancing in the BQ77915 product folder Videos section, or at https://training.ti.com/how-cell-balancing-feature-works-bq77915 .
