5 Bus Bar Support

The device supports bus bar measurement in two type of connections. First, the bus bar can be connected to a dedicated bus bar channel through the BBP and BBN pins. Alternatively, the bus bar can be connected to a VC channel. This section introduces both methods of connecting the bus bar and cell balancing handling for each configuration.
