8.3.2.5 Temperature Monitoring

To enable temperature measurements by the Host, the BQ76925 device provides the LDO regulator voltage on a separate output pin (VTB) for biasing an external thermistor network. In order to minimize power consumption, the Host may switch the VTB output on and off by writing to the VTB_EN bit in the POWER_CTL register. Note that if the LDO is back-fed by an external source, the VTB bias will be switched to the external source.

In a typical application, the thermistor network will consist of a resistor in series with an NTC thermistor, forming a resistor divider where the output is proportional to temperature. This output may be measured by the Host ADC to determine temperature.
