Alert/Status Tab
All device alerts are monitored from the Alert/Status
tab (Figure 11). The right side of the tab is divided into three group boxes: Status Flags (STATUS),
Cell Balancing Diagnostic Alert, and Alert Status
(ALRTCELL, ALRTOVCELL, ALRTUVCELL). The
Status Flags (STATUS) group box displays the alerts
from the STATUS (0x02) register. The Cell Balancing
Diagnostic Alert group box displays the alerts from the
ALRTBALSWCELL (0x08) register. The Alert Status
(ALRTCELL, ALRTOVCELL, ALRTUVCELL) group
box displays the alerts from the ALRTCELL (0x04),
ALRTOVCELL (0x05), and ALRTUVCELL (0x07) registers. Refer to the Cell Measurements and Balancing
Switch Fault Detection sections in the MAX17823H IC
datasheet for additional information.
Each group box contains buttons that are associated with
that register’s alert bits. When performing a read of these
alert registers, the state of each alert bit is displayed on
the buttons’ faces. To clear an alert, a zero must be written to the bit position assigned to that specific alert. An
alert is cleared as follows:
Evaluates: MAX17823H
1) Select the alerts to be cleared. Click the button
displaying the alert. The button’s label changes from
1 to 0.
2) Write to the alert register(s) using one of the following options:
a) Click the Clear Device button to clear the selected alerts of the active device (see the Active
Device drop-down list),or
b) Click the Clear All button to clear the selected
alerts of all devices in the chain
Note: Only the buttons displaying bold text can be cleared
by clicking the button. Buttons with non-bold text are readonly bits and are automatically cleared.
The alarm enable bits for the ALRTOV and ALRTUV alerts
are located in the OVALRTEN (0x06) and UVALRTEN
(0x07) registers, respectively. The ALRTCELL alerts
result from an ALRTOV or ALRTUV alert. Therefore,
to disable an ALRTCELL alert, both the ALRTOV and
ALRTUV alerts for that cell must be disabled (i.e., to
disable the alert for cell 12 (AL12), the OV12 and UV12
enable bits must be set to 0).

ADC Scan
An ADC scan measures all enabled cell inputs, all
enabled auxiliary inputs, and the self-diagnostics channel
(if enabled). The conversion begins once the SCAN bit in
the SCANSTART register is set. The following procedure
outlines the steps to set up and initiate single or continuous ADC scanning.
Set Up
1) Enable the cells to measure the following:
• Check the CELL_EN checkboxes in the Measure
Enable box on the Voltage Measurements tab.
• Click the Configure (F9) button.
Note: The cell channels can also be enabled with the
checkboxes on the Configuration tab.
2) Select the cell registers to read by checking the
CELL_ checkboxes on the Voltage Measurements
tab.
3) Enable the self-diagnostics and auxiliary inputs to
measure by checking the AIN1, AIN2 and DIAG
checkboxes in the Measure Enable box on the
Voltage Measurements tab.
4) Select the self-diagnostics and auxiliary input registers for reading by checking the AIN1, AIN2, and
DIAG checkboxes on the Voltage Measurements
tab.

Save/Load Register Configuration
The software features functions to save register configuration and load register configuration. This allows all
current register configurations and GUI control settings
to be saved and loaded at a later time. When saving,
the software first performs a read of all the registers of
each device in the daisy chain to obtain their current configurations. Once complete, a Save All Data dialog box
appears and asks for a file name and type (the default is
17823config.csv). When loading, a Load Configuration
file window appears and asks for a file to open (the default
is 17823config.csv). The load function configures the
GUI, writes the data from the file to the registers of all the
devices in the daisy chain, and finishes by performing a
read of all the selected device registers.
Note: Read-only data is not saved to the configuration
file. Only configurable options are saved to the configuration file.
PEC Byte
The MAX17823H EV kit software supports packet-error
checking (PEC) by implementing a CRC-8 algorithm to
maintain data integrity with the devices in the daisy chain.
The software generates the PEC byte when performing a
write to a MAX17823H device and verifies the PEC byte
received from the devices after a read operation. The software makes this algorithm available as a PEC calculator,
which is found under the Tools menu. Figure 18 shows
the PEC calculator.
Detailed Description of Hardware
The MAX17823H evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates the
capabilities of the MAX17823H advanced smart batterypack controller. Vertical headers (P2-P6) allow for the
connection of multiple EV kits, supporting the maximum
32-device daisy-chain capability.
The MAX17823H device can be configured to operate
with 3–12 battery cells. The cells can be directly connected to the EV kit or can be routed through header P1. See
the Battery Cells section. The EV kit also facilitates utilizing the auxiliary pins and accessing the general-purpose
input/output (GPIO) pins.
Device Startup
To start the EV kit, apply at least 9V across the PACK+
and PACK- PCB pads and then follow the startup
sequence below:
1) Connect a pack voltage across the PACK+ and
PACK- pads.
2) Connect a battery voltage across the BAT0–BAT12
pads (battery cells or external power supply).
3) Connect the MINIQUSB command module to the
MAX17841EV kit’s J3 and J4 headers.
4) Using the provided USB cable, connect the
MINIQUSB command module to a PC.
5) Start the MAX17823EV kit software.
6) Ensure that the MAX17841 SHDN checkbox on the
MAX17823 software is not checked.
7) Click the Wake Up button on the Initialization tab in
the MAX17823 software.
Note: The SHDN pin of the MAX17841 device is pulled up
to +3.3V by the MINIQUSB’s K1 GPIO pin.
Once the wake-up routine is completed, the SHDN pin
of each device on the daisy chain should rise to approximately 8.5V. The devices are now enabled and ready for
communication.

Battery Cells
When evaluating the MAX17823H EV kit, the cell stack
voltage is provided by cascading 3–12 battery cells or by
applying a DC voltage between the BAT0-BAT12 pads.
The following sections explain how to configure the EV kit
and connect the battery cells.
Cell Configuration
●●
A minimum of three cells must be connected to each
MAX17823H device.
●●
A maximum of 12 cells can be connected to each
MAX17823H device.
●●
The BAT0_ to BAT1_ cell inputs must always be
populated with a battery cell.
●●
The remaining cells are populated between BAT 1_
and BAT 2_, BAT 2_ and BAT 3_, and so on, until all
cells are connected.
●●
All unused cell inputs must be shorted together, using the appropriate CELL2–CELL12 jumpers.
1) Configure switch SW1 according to Table 14.
2) When using a DC power supply, the cascaded 2kΩ
resistors provide divided-down voltages to the cell
input pins. This, in effect, emulates the connection of
12 battery cells.
When DC power supplies are used to emulate battery
cells, set its output in the range from 9V to 60V. Connect
the power supplies between the PACK+ and PACK- pads
and ensure that a shunt is installed on jumpers JU14 and
JU19.
3) Configure jumpers CELL1–CELL12 according to the
number of battery cells (actual or emulated) that are
connected to the system (see Table 15).
Cell Connections
When using actual battery cells, connect them across
the appropriate BAT_ pads, or route them through the
P1connector.
When using actual or emulated battery cells, keep in mind
the following cell-connection requirements (see Table 16
for an 8-cell example):

Auxiliary Inputs
The auxiliary inputs of the MAX17823H devices are routed
to jumpers JU0 and JU1. This allows the auxiliary analog
inputs to be used to measure external resistance temperature detector (RTD) components. A negative temperature
coefficient (NTC) RTD can be configured with the AUXIN1
or AUXIN2 analog inputs to accurately monitor module or
battery-cell temperature. When the auxiliary inputs are not
used, a shunt can be installed on its associated jumper,
providing a known pin state (AGNDA).

13) Open the Configuration tab and select a timer predivider value from the drop-down list in the Watch
Dog Configuration box. For example, 1 sec[range =
1 to 15sec].
5) Select Die Temp option and click Configure All
Devices button.
14) Write the timer value as 15(0xF) in the Watch Dog
Configuration box.
7) The user will see the result in °C below the DIAG
register.
15) Click the Configure All Devices button and confirm
that the WATCHDOG register reads the appropriate
value based on pre-divider and timer configuration
(in this case, it should read 0x1F00) by selecting it
and reading the register value (click the F8 button to
read) in the Configuration tab.
16) Click the F8 button periodically to see the timer value
steadily go from 0xF to 0x0. In this case, the timer is
set to 15 seconds and the cell balancing is turned off
after the amount of time set by the user.
17) After the timer reaches 0, open the Voltage Measurement tab and click the F8 button to read cell
voltages. They should have returned to their initial
values, indicating that the cell balancing has been
turned off by the timer.
Note: The cell balancing timeout feature consists of a
4-bit countdown timer and a pre-divider with three control
bits for range selection. Both the timer and pre-divider
are programmed through the MSB of the WATCHDOG
register. The pre-divider sets the effective LSb time of the
counter-timer. If the value of the CBTIMER does reach
zero, the cell balancing switches are disabled until the
timer is either disabled or is refreshed by writing a nonzero value.
6) Make sure the DIAG register is checked so that it
can be read by clicking F8 button.
8) In this case, since the part was tested at room temperature, the DIAG showed a value of 21.86°C.
