Table 1-1. Ordering Information
EVM Part Number Chemistry Configuration Capacity
BQ76942EVM Li-Ion 10 cells Any
Note
Although capacity is shown as Any, practical limits of the physical construction of the module typically
limits the operation of the EVM to a 1P or 2P battery construction. Refer to the physical construction
section for board details.
1.3 BQ76942 Circuit Module Performance Specification Summary
This section summarizes the performance specifications of the BQ76942 circuit module in its default 10-cell
series FET configuration.
Typical voltage depends on the number of cells configured. Typical current depends on the application. Board
cooling may be required for continuous operation at or below maximum current.
