PRODUCTION DATA
Use a ceramic capacitor at the input to the BAT pin to bypass AC voltage ripple to ground, greatly reducing the BAT voltage sense input influence on battery voltage measurements. This method proves most effective in applications with load profiles that exhibit high-frequency current pulses (for example, cell phones) but is recommended for use in all applications to reduce noise on BAT, which is a sensitive high-impedance measurement node.
