ISL78610EVKIT1Z, Multi-Cell Li-Ion Battery Monitor Evaluation Kit based on ISL78610E

ISL78610EVKIT1Z, Evaluation Kit facilitates testing of the ISL78610 Li-ion battery pack analog front end ICs. The ISL78610 monitors cell voltage and temperature. It converts the cell voltages and temperatures to 14-bit digital values, provides cell balance control and provides significant fault detection. The ISL78610 also contains daisy chain hardware to provide robust, redundant board to board communications. The evaluation kit can be used as a stand-alone monitor or combined with additional boards to create a daisy chained application. One board, operating alone, allows testing of up to 12-cell series-connected Li-ion battery packs, using a standard USB interface to a PC. Up to 14 boards cascade - with daisy chain communication from board-to-board to test systems with up to 168 cells
