High Voltage Connections

The 5V_LV connector can supply power directly to the BQ79631-Q1 device through supplying the desired high voltages to measure across the resistor divider circuits, which must be supplied through separate connections. These connections are given in the table below.

Each of these high voltage supply connections supports 400-V inputs. This voltage is divided across a series of 330-kΩ resistors so that the high voltages do not come into contact with any amplifiers or pins on the BQ79631-Q1 device.

Note: The BQ79631EVM is rated for 800 V but the resistor values in the divider networks have been selected for 400-V application. To use this EVM for 800-V testing, swap out each of the 330-kΩ resistors for 660-kΩ resistors.
WARNING: Again, please verify that extreme care is taken around these networks.
