Tool/software:
The Schematic for the BQ76905EVM shows that R8 is populated. Yet on my kit its not.
Should It be or not ?
Also, there is much conflicting information on the lower cell count.
I will be using 3 LTO cells.
Is the following correct ?
| Battery Connector Pin | Connect To | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| BAT- | Negative terminal of Cell 1 | Connect pack negative, this is VC0 |
| CELL1- | Same as BAT- (internally tied) | Usually tied to BAT-, no separate wiring needed |
| CELL1+ | Positive terminal of Cell 1 | Connect to VC1 pin |
| CELL2+ | Positive terminal of Cell 2 | Connect to VC2 pin |
| CELL3+ | Positive terminal of Cell 3 (top) | Connect to VC5 pin |
| CELL4+ | Tie to CELL3+ | Prevent floating input |
| CELL5+ | Tie to CELL3+ | Prevent floating input |
| CELL6+ | Tie to CELL3+ | Prevent floating input |
| CELL7+ | Tie to CELL3+ | Prevent floating input |
