The bq2920x device is a secondary overvoltage protection IC for 2-series cell lithium-ion battery packs that incorporates a high-accuracy precision overvoltage detection circuit and automatic cell imbalance correction.
The voltage of each cell in a 2-series cell battery pack is compared to a factory programmed internal reference voltage. If either cell reaches an overvoltage condition, the OUT pin changes from low to high state.
The bq2920x can perform automatic voltage-based cell imbalance correction. Balancing can start when the cell voltages are different by nominally 30 mV or more and stops when the difference is nominally 0 mV. Cell balancing is enabled and disabled by the CB_EN pin.
