2.1 Base Device

  • AVDD is a 5V regulated output which supplies internal circuits. AVDD must be bypassed to AVSS with a 1µF/10V capacitor. Do not connect any additional loads to AVDD.
  • CVDD is a power supply for stack communication and tied to internally as I/O power supply. CVDD supplies the stack daisy chain communication transceiver circuit. Bypass CVDD with a 4.7µF/10V and 100nF and 22nF for improved emissions and performance. capacitor to CVSS.
  • DVDD is a 1.8V regulated output that is used to power the digital logic inside the chip. Connect with a 1μF/10V capacitor to DVSS. Do not connect any additional loads to DVDD.
  • NEG5V is a -5V supply provided by an internal charge pump. Connect with a 0.1µF/10V capacitor to AVSS.
  • REFHP is a precision reference output pin. A 1µF/10V bypass capacitor must be connected from REFHP to REFHM directly for proper operation of the part.
  • REFHM is the precision reference ground for the internal precision reference. Connect DVSS, CVSS, ADC_AVSS, REFHM, and AVSS externally. All VSS pins must not be left unconnected.
Regulator Connection for Base Device
Note: TI recommends to add 470nF/16V from CB16 to BAT for hotplug robustness not shown in figure. See the BQ79616-Q1, BQ79616H-Q1, BQ79614-Q1, BQ79612-Q1 Functional Safety-Compliant Automotive 16S/14S/12S Battery Monitor, Balancer and Integrated Hardware Protector data sheet for details.
