Original question:
Hi
The TS pin is OF BQ24170 is connected to resistors including a NTC 10kohm RESISTOR / THERMISTOR in order to prevent high temperature of the battery.
Is it right to attach it to the battery? If it is attached to the BQ24170 it controls is temperature of the component and not the battery.
Thanks
Hi Asher,
Thank you for reaching out!
The controller continuously monitors battery temperature by measuring the voltage between the TS pin and AGND. A negative temperature coefficient thermistor (NTC) and an external voltage divider typically develop this voltage. The NTC thermistor should be attached to the battery pack.
See example below:
