OTP EPROM PROGRAMMING CHARACTERISTICS
VPROG Programming voltage VBAT ≥ 20 V 6.75 7 7.25 V
tPROG Programming time VBAT ≥ 20 V (11) 50 ms
IPROG Programming current VBAT ≥ 20 V 10 20 mA
Total simultaneous current drawn from all pins is limited by LDOD current to ≤10 mA.
If ADC_CONTROL[ADC_ON] = 0, add 500 µs to conversion time to allow ADC subsystem to stabilize. This is self-timed by the part.
Additional 50 ms (POR) is required before first conversion after a) initial cell connection; or b) VBAT falls below VPOR.
Plus tCONV_START,that is, if device is programmed for six channel conversions, total time is approximately 6 × 6 + 6 = 42 µs.
0 V may not lie within the range of measured values due to offset voltage limit and device calibration.
See text for specific conversion formula.
COV and CUV thresholds must be set such that COV – CUV ≥ 300 mV.
Using recommended components. Consult Table 2 in text for voltage levels used.
See Table 2 for trip points.
Under double or multiple fault conditions (of a single type), the second or greater fault may have its delay time shortened by up to the step time for the fault. For example, the second and subsequent COV faults occurring within the delay time period for the first fault may have their delay time shortened by up to 100 µs.
The write pulse is self-timed internally. VPROG should be applied for this time at a minimum.

Maximum SCLK frequency is limited by the number of bq76PL536A devices in the vertical stack. The maximum listed here may not be realizable in systems due to delays and limits imposed by other components including wiring, connectors, PCB material and routing, and so forth. See text for details.
Time listed is for single device.

Typical values are quoted in place of MIN/MAX for design guidance only. Actual propagation delay depends heavily on wiring and capacitance in the signal path. These parameters are not tested in production due to these dependencies on system design considerations.
