The ACUV (Analog Cell Under Voltage) protection is a hardware-based protection that monitors individual cell voltages using the AFE (Analog Front End) hardware comparator. This protection provides faster response than firmware-based CUV protection because it operates directly in hardware without firmware intervention.
Unlike the current-based hardware protections (AOCD, AOCC, ASCD), ACUV is a voltage-based protection that monitors cell voltages against a configurable threshold.
ACUV protection triggers when any cell voltage falls below the Settings AFE Under Voltage threshold configured in the AFE hardware registers.
When triggered:
ACUV does NOT have an alert stage - it triggers directly to protection status. This differs from current-based hardware protections which use Trip/Latch Alert/Recovery cycles.
As of firmware v0.03 (BMSFW-11409), ACUV uses threshold-based recovery instead of time-based recovery:
Configuration Note: Configure the Recovery threshold higher than the associated Settings AFE Under Voltage threshold to provide hysteresis and prevent oscillation near the threshold.
