BQ79600-Q1 Evaluation Module
The BQ79600-Q1 Evaluation Module user's guide describes the general features, theory of operation,
hardware setup, and use of the BQ79600EVM. Throughout this user's guide, the abbreviations
EVM
,
BQ79600EVM
, and the term
evaluation module
are synonymous with the
BQ79600-Q1 Evaluation
Module
, unless otherwise noted. This EVM is an evaluation board for the
BQ79600-Q1
device used as a
bridge IC to interface between a microcontroller and the TI battery monitoring ICs, for example BQ7961x-
Q1 family of devices. It translates between the daisy chain interface and SPI/UART interface.
