BQ79656-Q1: BQ79656-Q1 Automotive

Part Number: BQ79656-Q1


Hi,

We Have Used BQ79656-Q1 Automotive BMS Controller in My Project, 

 This controller Datasheet have not Mentioned any pin for CHG FET on /off & DSG FET  on/off. 

Is that means host microcontroller will control the CHG/DSG FET ?

Regards

Vivek 

  • Hi Vivek,

    You are correct with your understanding- the BQ79656-Q1 device does not have pins related to CHG/DSG. This device doesn't control CHG/DSG; it replies/interfaces with your system. However, if your system requires this support- GPIO(s) on the BQ79656-Q1 can control CHG/DSG but ultimately still replies to your system. 

    The host MCU can control CHG/DSG directly through the MCU or indirectly by the BQ79656-Q1.

    Best Regards,
