SLUSBV4C June 2018 – June 2025 BQ40Z80
PRODUCTION DATA
Some applications have a large capacitive load that requires a pre-discharge feature that slowly charges the cap and avoids a large current that is capable of tripping the OC protection. The BQ40Z80 device can be configured to use the PDSG output of Pins 16, 17, or 20 to drive the N-channel FET Q7 to turn on the pre-discharge P-channel FET Q5. Adjust the resistor R9 to set the precharge rate.
