7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview

The bq76PL455A-Q1 is an integrated 16-cell monitor, protector, and cell balancer designed for high-reliability automotive applications with many built-in self-diagnostic features.
Up to 16 bq76PL455A-Q1 devices can be connected in series using the high-speed differential communications interface, which has been evaluated for compliance with Bulk Current Injection (BCI) standards. This capacitor­isolated communications link provides effective common-mode noise rejection. The bq76PL455A-Q1 communicates with the host through a high-speed UART interface. The bq76PL455A-Q1 provides up to six general-purpose, programmable, digital I/O ports, as well as eight AUX ADC inputs, typically used to monitor externally supplied temperature sensors. Configuration of the digital I/O ports can be set to generate faults based on conditions set in register GP_FLT_IN. Further configuration of these faults can be for an indication of a fault on the FAULT_N output pin.
Designed for high-reliability automotive applications, the bq76PL455A-Q1 includes many functional blocks and self-diagnostic test features covering defined single-fault conditions in analog and digital blocks. The host microcontroller receives fault notifications through a separate communications path. The device contains user­selectable self-test features to diagnose functional blocks within the device, such as automatic shutdown in the event of overtemperature, calibration integrity, and so forth. The Safety Manual for bq76PL455A-Q1 (SLUUB67) is available upon request for reference to aid the user in the evaluation of the built-in test features of the bq76PL455A-Q1.
A provided built-in secondary protection block, with two dedicated programmable comparators per cell input, separately senses and reports overvoltage and undervoltage conditions. The comparators utilize a second separate testable internal band gap reference.
The bq76PL455A-Q1 provides pins for direct drive of external N-FETs for passive cell balancing with power resistors. The balancing function configuration responds to on or off commands or specified to run for a specific time.
The device is powered from the stack of cells to which it is connected and all required voltages are generated internally.

Figure 15. Analog Die Power Domains
7.3.1.1.1 TOP Pin Connection
The bq76PL455A-Q1 has a connection from the top of the cell-module battery stack to the TOP pin, typically through an external-series resistor and capacitor to GND forming a low-pass filter. The low-pass filter design typically has a similar time constant to the VSENSE input pins. The minimum recommended values are 100 and 0.1 µF. See the Application and Implementation section for details.
7.3.1.1.2 V10VAO
V10VAO is an internal-only, always on, pre-regulator supplied from the TOP pin. It supplies the power to the V5VAO block, Analog Die TSD block, and VP control and regulator circuits. It is not externally accessible.
7.3.1.1.3 V5VAO
V5VAO is the always-on power supply that ensures power is supplied to the differential communications circuits (COMML+/–) and the WAKEUP input at all times. This ensures that the IC always detects the WAKEUP signal and the differential communications receive the WAKE tone. The V5VAO is supplied by a combination of an internal regulator and the VDIG supply. If VDIG falls below the normal operating voltage (during startup), the internal regulator supplies V5VAO. Once VDIG reaches regulation, V5VAO is supplied directly from VDIG.

Feature Description (continued)
NOTE
V5VAO can only supply enough power to meet internal IC requirements; it should not connect to external circuitry.
7.3.1.1.4 VP Regulated Output
The bq76PL455A-Q1 power comes directly from the cells to which it is connected. Current draw is from the top and bottom of the n-cell battery assembly, so that current through each cell is the same. An integrated linear regulator utilizes an external NPN transistor (Zetex ZXTN4004K or similar) to generate a nominal 5.3-V rail on pin VP. VP is both a power input and the sense node for this supply. The NPNB pin controls the external NPN transistor of the regulator. A capacitor or resistor-capacitor combination must connect externally from VP to GND, see Pin Configuration and Functions for details. VP must connect externally to VDIG and can optionally connect to VIO. Both of these connections are through series 1-resistors and separately decoupled. This regulator is OFF in SHUTDOWN mode.

Power handling
Add a collector resistor between the NPN collector and the TOP pin to reduce power dissipation in the NPN under normal and system fault conditions. The value of this resistor is chosen based on the minimum battery­stack voltage, the bq76PL455A-Q1 VP/VDIG total load current, and the load current of any external I/O circuitry powered directly or indirectly by VP/VDIG. Also, the recommendation is to add a 1-µF decoupling capacitor directly from the collector to AGND.

7.3.1.1.5 VDIG Power Input
VDIG is the digital voltage supply input. Always connect it to the VP pin, which normally receives power from the NPN. Optionally, an external supply may drive VDIG, but still must be connected to VP. This applies in all operating modes. The VDIG source is from VP through a 1-resistor. Decouple VDIG with a separate capacitor at the pin.
7.3.1.1.6 VDD18 Regulator
A provided internal regulator generates a 1.8-V digital supply for internal device use only. The 1.8-V supply does not require an external capacitor, and there is no pin or external connection. Faults on VDD18 that cause the voltage to drop below its regulation may cause UART communication errors. If the fault is caused by LDO_TEST, reset or shutdown/wakeup the device to regain functionality.
7.3.1.1.7 VIO Power Input
VIO is the voltage supply input used to power the digital I/O pins TX, RX, FAULT_N, and GPIOn. VIO may connect to an externally regulated-supply rail, which is common to an I/O device such as a microcontroller. Alternately, the source for VIO may be from VP through a 1-resistor. Decouple VIO with a separate capacitor at the pin.
If VIO does not have power, the part holds in reset and enters shutdown after a short delay. This gives a very good reset mechanism for non-stacked systems. Upon power up from a SHUTDOWN, the SHDN_STS[GTSD_PD_STAT] bit will be set. This flag bit is the logical <OR> of this condition or triggering the thermal shutdown of the digital die in a die overtemperature situation.

7.3.1.1.8 VM Charge Pump
www.ti.com
The included internal-charge pump is for biasing the Analog Front End (AFE) and other analog circuits. It requires an external flying capacitor connected between the CHP and CHM pins plus a storage capacitor on pin VM to generate a rail of –5 V for internal use. The charge pump (VM) is always on in IDLE and off in SHUTDOWN. VM requires the oscillator to be running and stable and does not start until the other supplies are above their POR thresholds. The VM charge pump will start ramping at the start of the WAKEUP tone on COMH.

7.3.2 Analog Front End (AFE)/Level Shifter

The bq76PL455A-Q1 AFE allows monitoring of up to 16 cells. Provided for this purpose are seventeen VSENSE inputs, labeled VSENSE0 through VSENSE16. The programming for bq76PL455A-Q1 can be set to sample all, or a subset, of the connected cells. Sampling always begins at the highest-selected cell and finishes with the lowest-selected cell. During measurement, the AFE selects the cell addressed by the logic block and level-shift the sensed cell voltage with a gain of 1 down to the ground-referred OUT1 pin. The output of the AFE (OUT1) has a See section '' for component selection.
The analog output of the AFE connects to OUT1 through an internal 1.2-kseries resistor. Connect OUT1 externally to OUT2. At this external connection between the AFE and the ADC, the requirement is to place an external filter capacitor to form an RC filter to reduce noise bandwidth. A filter capacitor will increase the settling time of the signal presented to the ADC input. A trade-off can be made between ADC sample time, filtering, and accuracy. The AFE output must settle to within < 1/4 of the ADC LSB for best measurement accuracy.

7.3.3 ADC

The ADC in the bq76PL455A-Q1 is a 14-bit Successive Approximation Register (SAR) ADC. It has a fixed conversion (hold) time of 3.44 µs, with a user-selectable sample interval or period between conversions. The user-selectable sample interval determines the acquisition (tracking) settling time between conversions, used mostly to allow the input capacitor on OUT1 to settle between conversions, and to allow for internal settling.
The ADC input mux on the digital die allows it to connect to the following:
The AFE (analog die) mux output on OUT1 which measures: – Up to 16 cell voltage channels – The V
MODULE
voltage – The internal temperature of the analog die – The REF2 analog die reference – The VM (–5V) charge pump generated voltage supply on the analog die
Measurement channels on the digital die: – The 8 AUX input channels – The VDD18 1.8-V voltage supply on the digital die – The internal temperature of the digital die
The ADC can be set up to take single samples or multiple samples in one of two averaging modes. This selection is made using OVERSMPL[CMD_OVS_CYCLE].
7.3.3.1 Channel Selection Registers
Program channels for measurement by setting bits in the CHANNELS and NCHAN registers. Each channel can be set up for measurement individually. User programmable correction factors are available for cell and AUX channels. Conversion times are individually user programmable for different types of inputs (that is, cells, AUX, and internal measurements).
The NCHAN register sets the number of VSENSE channels (cell inputs) for use by the device. Unused channels are dropped consecutively starting from channel 16. Set this register for the number of cells used, that is, for 14 cells, program 0x0E. This register also sets mask cell overvoltage and undervoltage faults for unused channels, and turns off the UV and OV comparators associated with the channel. The idle channel (the channel the mux rests on between sample intervals) is set to the value in this register. This allows the OUT1 pin to hold the filter capacitor at the voltage, which will be sampled first on the next cycle.

7.3.3.2 Averaging
The oversampling for the ADC average measurements is programmable to 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32 times. Individual samples are arithmetically averaged by the bq76PL455A-Q1, which then outputs a single 16-bit (14 bits + 2 additional bits created by the averaging process) average measurement. The individual samples used to create the average value are not available.
As shown in Figure 16, the ADC averages any selected cell voltages first, then any selected AUX input channels, and then any remaining channels selected in the CHANNELS register in the order listed. Depending on the state of the CMD_OVS_CYCLE bit in the OVERSMPL register, oversampling of the Voltage and AUX channels follows one of the following procedures:
Sampling each channel once and cycling through all channels before oversampling again in the case of CMD_OVS_CYCLE = 1 (cycled averaging) OR
Sampling multiple times on a single channel before changing channel in the case of CMD_OVS_CYCLE = 0 (non-cycled averaging).
Figure 16 shows these on the left and right, respectively.
When oversampling, Table 2 shows the oversample periods for each channel after the first sample. The first sample can have a different period programmed (see Table 2), followed by all subsequent samples at different period shown in Table 3. The first sample and subsequent sample periods are separate of each other.

OTHER SAMPLES (AVERAGING)
The ADC_PERIOD_VOL bits set the period between ADC samples for the indicated channels whether oversampling or not. When CMD_OVS_CYCLE = 1, the oversampling period of the Cell and AUX channels remains fixed at the single sample period of CELL_SPER[ADC_PERIOD_VOL] and AUX_SPER[ADC_PERIOD_AUX], respectively. Otherwise, if CMD_OVS_CYCLE = 0, then the oversample period for the Cell channels is set by bits CMD_OVS_HPER and for the AUX channels is CMD_OVS_GPER.
CMD_OVS_HPER must be programmed to 12.6 µs and CMD_OVS_GPER can be programmed between 4.13 µs and 12.6 µs in the OVERSMPL register.
After the initial sample period performed per a single sample, oversampling on all other channels are at the CMD_OVS_GPER and CMD_OVS_HPER period settings as indicated in Table 2.
Writing to the CMD register is used to start the voltage sampling process. This is usually done with a BROADCAST Write_With_Response_Command sent to the CMD register. Using the BROADCAST version of the synchronously sample channels command will result in all devices in the stack sampling at the same time. That is, all devices begin sampling their respective cells, then AUX, and so on, simultaneously.

7.3.3.4 VSENSE Input Channels
The VSENSE input channels measure the voltages of individual cells in the range of 1 V-to-4.95 V. Each input should connect to an external low-pass filter (LPF) to reduce noise at the input, and a Zener diode to provide protection to the device during random hot-plug cell connection. Typical values for the LPF range from 100 to 1 k, and 0.1 µF to 1 µF. Values outside this range may degrade accuracy due to system-level noise or from excessive IR loss in the series resistor.
Tie up unused inputs to the highest-connected cell. For example, in a 14-cell system, tied to VSENSE14 are unused inputs VSENSE15 and VSENSE16. Channels are used from lowest to highest, with VSENSE0 connected to the (–) terminal of the bottom cell.
The values returned from an ADC conversion for these channels convert to volts by:
V
= [(2 × VREF) / 65535] × READ_ADC_VALUE (1)
CELL
A number of factors affect total channel measurement accuracy, including, but not limited to, variations due to IR reflow, board-level stresses, any current leakage in external components, and the method of sampling. It is highly recommended that the end user perform GAIN and OFFSET calibration as described in the Application and
Implementation section.
7.3.3.5 AUXn Input Channels
The AUXn input channels are used to measure external analog voltages from approximately 0 V to 5 V. A typical use for these channels is to measure temperature using thermistors. These channels require a simple external low-pass filter to reduce high frequency noise for best operation. The RC values correspond to the user's application requirements.
The values returned from an ADC conversion for these channels convert to volts by:

voltage divider. Setting TSTCONFIG[MODULE_MON_EN] enables measuring of VMODULE voltage. Enable or disable the measurement to aid with self-testing. When set to 0, the channel should measure close to 0 V.

7.3.3.7 Digital Die Temperature Measurement
The temperature of the digital die may be measured as a part of the normal ADC measurement sequence by setting bit CHANNELS[CMD_TSEL]. The reported result is the voltage from the temperature sensor, not the actual temperature.
No averaging is ever performed on this channel, but the timing will appear as if the requested oversampling was performed.
FAULT_SYS[INT_TEMP_FAULT] is continuously updated based on the currently stored measurement result and threshold. To allow clearing of the fault, sample the temperature within a normal operating range.
Conversion formula:

ADC
After initialization is complete, an internal timer will cause the digital-die temperature sensor sampling to be scheduled once per second. No oversampling is performed. If a command or an auto-monitor cycle occurs that samples the digital die temperature sensor, the timer resets. A command will interrupt an automatic temperature sample, but if the command does not sample the digital die temperature, the automatic temperature sample will occur as soon as the command completes. This can cause sample values to appear to change without a sample request.

7.3.3.8 Analog Die Temperature Measurement
The temperature measurement of the analog die is programmable as part of the normal ADC measurement sequence by setting bit CHANNELS[CMD_HTSEL]. The reported result is the voltage from the temperature sensor, not the actual temperature.
There is no internal threshold checking for this value. For self-testing purposes, the expectation is that the microcontroller compares this value with the converted temperature from the digital die and decides if they are reporting the same temperature. The analog die temperature measurement is more accurate than the digital-die temperature measurement. Therefore, the digital die temperature measurement should be considered only a rough estimation of the temperature measured by the analog die temperature monitor. The host firmware must account for any offset between the two measurements.

There is no internal threshold checking of these values. The expectation is that the microcontroller checks that the values are within the appropriate ranges.
7.3.3.11 Auto-Monitor
Auto-monitor periodically samples a user-defined set of channels in the AM_CHAN register. The conversion results do not automatically transmit on the communications channel, but are available to be read by the micro­controller. Auto-monitor senses non-masked fault conditions automatically without sending convert commands. When Auto-monitor is running, the part is fully powered and awake in the IDLE state. Auto-monitor does not affect operation of the secondary protection comparators.
Fault detection is fully functional and operates in the same manner as when Auto-monitor mode is not enabled.
NOTE
Always disable the Auto-monitor function before initiating any new action such as requesting ADC samples, running checksum test, and so forth.
When enabled, Auto-monitor sets the STATUS[AUTO_MON_RUN] bit during the ADC conversion only. Start the Auto-monitor function by setting AM_PER[AUTO_MON_PER] to a non-zero value. Setting the
STATUS[AUTO_MON_RUN] bit also restarts the Auto-monitor function when AM_PER[AUTO_MON_PER] is non-zero. This can synchronize the Auto-monitor function measurement cycles to system operations and/or between ICs in the stack.

7.3.4 Thermal Shutdown

Thermal shutdown occurs when either one or both of the Thermal Shutdown (TSD) sensors on either die sense an overtemperature condition. The sensors operate separately without interaction and are separate from the analog and digital die sensors. Each has a separate register-status indicator flag. When a TSD fault occurs, the part immediately enters the SHUTDOWN state. To awake the part, follow the normal WAKEUP procedure. The bq76PL455A-Q1 does not exit SHUTDOWN automatically. It cannot be awakened until the temperature falls below the TSD threshold. Upon waking up, either SHDN_STS[GTSD_PD_STAT] or (SHDN_STS[ANALOG_PD_STAT]&& SHDN_STS[HTSD_PD_STAT]) bits will be set.

7.3.5 Voltage Reference (ADC)

The VREF pin receives a precise internal voltage reference for the ADC. Two parallel X7R or better filter capacitors between pins VREF and AGND are required for the reference; see Application and Implementation for recommended values and PCB layout considerations.

7.3.6 Voltage Reference (REF2)

The window comparators have a 4.5-V internal voltage reference provided. It does not go out to an external pin. To check the reference, select it with the CHANNELS[CMD_REFSEL] bit.

7.3.7 Passive Balancing

Sixteen internal drivers control individual cell balancing through the pins labeled EQ1…EQ16. When the device issues a balance command through register CBENBL, the bq76PL455A-Q1 asserts the EQ(N) output, switches to the VSENSE(N) rail and turns on Q VSENSEn–1 rail, turns off Q
, and reduces the balancing current to zero. The squeeze (OWD) function must

. With a de-asserted register bit, the EQn bit switches to the
BAL
be disabled for correct balancing operation by setting TSTCONFIG[EQ_SQUEEZE_EN] = 0. If CBCONFIG[BAL_CONTINUE] is set to '0', then when there is a FAULT the bq76PL455A-Q1 disables
balancing. The CBENBL register bits clear to indicate this event. However, there is one exception. The USER checksum fault indicated by FALUT_DEV[USER_CKSUM_FLT] does not disable balancing. The following describes the scenarios:
BAL_CONTINUE = 0: CBENBL is set to 0 and balancing is disabled until the fault and fault status bits are
cleared. Information about what was being balanced is discarded. No change is made to the BAL_TIME bits in CBCONFIG. The CBENBL register must then be rewritten with the desired balancing action.
BAL_CONTINUE = 1: There is no effect on CBENBL and CBCONFIG and any balancing in progress
continues.
Changing the CBENBL register will create a checksum fault and cause FAULT_DEV[USER_CKSUM_ERR] to be set. This may be a result of setting bits to enable balancing for cells, or the register being reset, because of a fault or CBTIME expiring.
The internal balancing control circuitry only powers up when any bit in CBENBL is set. See Passive Cell
Balancing Circuit section for details on selecting the external passive balancing components.

7.3.8 General Purpose Input-Outputs (GPIO)

There are six GPIO pins available in the bq76PL455A-Q1. Registers GPIO_xxx, located at addresses 0x78–7D, control GPIO behavior. Each can be programmed to be an input or output pin.
Each GPIO pin can have an internal pull-up or pull-down resistor enabled to keep the pin in a known state when power is not on for external circuitry. Configuration for pull-up or pull-down resistors is in the GPIO_PU and GPIO_PD registers. The pull-up/down resistors have internal connections to supply VIO. The resistor values are in the Digital Input/Output: Wakeup section of the Electrical Characteristics tables.
The GPIOs can also trigger a FAULT condition. Programmed GPIOs trigger a FAULT indication by setting bits in register GPIO_FLT_IN.
The FAULT_GPI register and the DEVCONFIG[UNLATCHED_FAULT] bit controls the behavior of the device in response to a FAULT triggered by an enabled GPIO pin. The usual pin configuration is to be an input in the GPIO_DIR register when used to trigger faults.

7.3.9 UART Interface to Host Microcontroller

The UART follows the standard serial protocol of 8-N-1, where it sends information as a START bit, followed by eight data bits, and then followed by one STOP bit. In all, 10 bits comprise a character time. Received data bits are oversampled by 16 times to improve communication reliability.
The UART sends data on the TX pin and receives data on the RX pin. When the transmitter is idling (not sending data), TX = 1. The RX input pin idles in the same state, RX = 1. Hold the RX line high using a pull-up to VIO, if not used (that is, non-base device in the daisy chain). Do not allow the RX pin to float when VIO is present.
7.3.9.1 UART Transmitter
The transmitter can be configured to wait a specified amount of time after the last bit reception and start of transmission using the TX_HOLDOFF register. The TX_HOLDOFF register specifies the number of bit periods that the bq76PL455A-Q1 will wait to allow time for the microcontroller to switch the bus direction at the end of its transmission.
7.3.9.2 UART Receiver
The UART interface design works in half-duplex. As a result, while the device is transmitting data on the TX pin, it ignores RX. To avoid collisions when sending data up the daisy-chain interface, the host microcontroller should wait until it receives all bytes of a transmission from the device to the microcontroller before attempting to send data or commands up the daisy-chain interface. If the microcontroller starts a transaction without waiting to receive the preceding transaction's response, the communication might hang up and the microcontroller may need to send Communication Clear (see Communication Clear (Break) Detection) or Communication Reset (see
Communication Reset Detection) to restore normal communications.
7.3.9.3 Baud Rate Selection
The baud rate of the communications channel to the microcontroller is set in the COMCONFIG[BAUD] register for 125k-250k-500k-1M baud rates. The default rate after a communications reset is 250k. The default rate after a POR is the rate selected by the value stored in EEPROM for the COMCONFIG[BAUD] register.
When the value in this register changes, the new rate takes effect after the complete reception of a valid packet containing the new setting including the CRC. This should send the next packet at the new baud rate and all packets transmitted by the device will be at the new rate. It is possible to change the baud rate at any time and, optionally, store the new baud rate in the EEPROM as a new POR default. After changing the baud rate, observe a minimum wait period of 10 µs before sending the first packet at the new baud rate.
The value in the COMCONFIG[BAUD] register only affects the baud rate used in microcontroller communications on the TX and RX pins. The daisy-chain vertical communication bus rate is at a higher fixed rate and not user modifiable. All devices in the stack must have the same baud rate setting as the base device to read data from stacked devices.
7.3.9.4 Communication Clear (Break) Detection
Use communications clear to reset the receiver to re-synchronize looking for the start of frame. The receiver continuously monitors the RX line for a break (<BRK>) condition. A <BRK> is detected when the
RX line is held low for at least t than t
COMM_BREAKmax
bit periods may result in recognition of a communication reset instead of the intended
COMM_BREAKmin
bit periods (approximately 1 character times). Sending for more
communication clear. When detected, a <BRK> will set the STATUS[COMM_CLEAR] flag.
7.3.9.5 Communication Reset Detection
Detection of a communication reset occurs when the RX line is held low for more than approximately t
COMM_RESETmin
. The primary purpose of sending a communications reset is to recover the device in the event the baud rate is inadvertently changed or unknown. The baud rate resets unconditionally to the FACTORY default value of 250 kb/s, REGARDLESS of the value stored in the EEPROM COMCONFIG register. This sets the baud rate to a known, fixed rate (250k baud), and the STATUS[COMM_RESET] flag.
