Texas Instruments BQ79600-Q1 Automotive SPI/UART Comm Interface

Texas Instruments BQ79600-Q1 Automotive SPI/UART Communication Interface is designed to interface between a microcontroller (MCU) and TI battery monitoring ICs. The device’s MCU data is translated to signals recognized by TI’s battery management daisy chain protocol and then transmitted. Furthermore, signals from the daisy chain are decoded to the bitstream and then sent back to MCU.

The TI BQ79600-Q1 Automotive SPI/UART Communication Interface wakes the MCU and PMIC in SHUTDOWN/SLEEP mode if any unmasked fault is detected using ring architecture.
