PRODUCTION DATA.
In this section the battery management functionality of the bq25570 integrated circuit (IC) is presented. The IC has internal circuitry to manage the voltage across the storage element and to optimize the charging of the storage element. For successfully extracting energy from the source, two different threshold voltages must be programmed using external resistors, namely battery good threshold (VBAT_OK) and over voltage (OV) threshold. The two user programmable threshold voltages and the internally set undervoltage threshold determine the IC's region of operation. Figure 21 shows the relative position of the various threshold voltages.
