Description

This application report explains the implementation of a multi-cell lithium-ion battery management system using an MSP430(tm) microcontroller and the bq76PL536. The battery manager is implemented using the standard evaluation boards for the MSP430 MCU and the bq76PL536.The bq76PL536 can be stacked vertically to monitor up to 192 cells without additional isolation components between ICs.
