The power rating and voltage rating determined our component size when the EV Kit was created. Potentially, the SWx capacitors can be reduce to 25V or 50V capacitors but it is recommended that hot plug…
MAX17823 can measure negative voltage. It has two measurement modes. One is unipolar mode and another one is bipolar mode. Bipolar mode operation can measure -2.5V~2.5V and unipolar mode operation can…
In general, yes. See below table. The maximum balancing current is limited by package power dissipation, average die temperature, average duty-cycle of the switch, and the number of switches conducting…
MAX17823 has three different status for current measurement.
1. Standby mode. In this mode, there is no data communication and no ADC action. The power consumption is IDCSTBY;
2. In communication…
The SW_ pins have a low series resistance in the path to accommodate the need for high cell balancing currents.This coupled with the internal ESD structure will allow for a high current path internal to…
Yes, we should follow the latest version of the datasheet – 4.7uF +10ohm from HV to DCIN. The 10 ohm resistor is required for hot plug performance. During a hot plug event the internal ESD structures of…
The absolute maximum rating voltage of Cn to Cn-1 is "-72V to +72V", so if one cell is connected reversely and only the Cx pins are connected to the cell, the MAX17823 should not be demaged. However, if…
Q: In the first page of MAX17823 datasheet, we specify " up to 150mA per switch" ,What' s condition that it is based on?
A: DS states 150mA per switch with 6 even or 6 odd switch operating at the same…
This capacitor serves 2 purposes:
1.Provides low impedance path to shunt ESD currents;
2. Provides capacitive voltage divider for each of the SW inputs to help with the hot plug scenario.
