Key features of L9961

• Very low current consumption in both deep-sleep mode (i.e. 2 μA) and standby mode (i.e. 5 μA)
• High accuracy in cell voltage measurements (i.e. maximum error of ± 15 mV in the 1.5 to 4.5 V range, for -40 °C < TJ < 105 °C) with over/under voltage detection and balance under voltage protection
• High accuracy in battery current measurements (i.e. maximum error of 0.25%) with Coulomb Counting, over current detection and short-circuit in discharge protection
• Stack voltage monitoring with over/under voltage detection and plausibility check
   

• Pack temperature monitoring via NTC sensor with over/under temperature detection and pack fuse management
• I²C peripheral for device programming and data transfers over I²C bus
• Hot plug robustness
• Embedded NVM for configuration parameters storage
