BQ76972: Cell Balancing

Part Number: BQ76972

Tool/software:

 I want to use the balancing function. The datasheet states that it can be achieved using an external fet. I would like to know how to design it specifically? Is FET placed on the circuit of each battery cell? Where should the discharge resistor be placed? Is there a reference circuit that utilizes external FAE for balancing?
