Abstract

The BQ79600-Q1 device serves as a bridge device between a host controller and BQ7961x-Q1 battery monitoring devices. With the inclusion of UART and SPI interfaces to communicate to the host, and daisy chain communication ports to talk to BQ7961x-Q1 devices, the BQ79600-Q1 can translate data from the host to the battery monitoring devices and vice versa. This application report details the steps needed to wake up and initialize a stack of BQ7961x-Q1 devices using BQ79600-Q1 as bridge device between the host and the battery monitors.
