MAX1720x/MAX1721x Battery Pack
Implementation Guide
UG6258; Rev 0; 2/16
Description
This guide provides the instructions for designing the PCB and programming the
MAX17201/MAX17211/ MAX17205/MAX17215 for use in battery packs. Proper circuit board layout is
critical for measurement accuracy and ESD ruggedness. This application note is a guide for achieving
the highest performance possible given limited board size and component position flexibility.
Figure 1
shows a single-cell (MAX17201/MAX17211) and a multi-cell (MAX17205/MAX17215) circuit
configuration. Note that other circuit configurations for this IC are possible, and should follow the same
layout guidelines. This guide also includes a recommended board level production test procedure
requiring minimum test time.
