Cell Voltage Accuracy

When testing cell voltage accuracy, do not use a resister divider to simulate battery cells. Since there is some current flowing into cell input pins when doing ADC measurement, the resister divider causes further voltage drop and makes the AFE readings lower than the actual value. The design uses a battery simulator for accuracy testing. Table 4-1 shows the cell voltage accuracy data without any further calibrations and under room temperature. All channels of cell voltage error are below ±5 mV.
