Figure 17. Cell Voltage Monitoring Circuit
To calibrate the VCELL output, it must measure a 2.5-V signal, but 2.5 V is beyond the ADC input range of most
analog-to-digital converters used in these applications. The bq77PL900 is designed to measure the 2.5 V
through a differential amplifier first, which is where the calibration procedure starts.
