DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 2515A is a multicell battery-
stack monitor featuring the
battery-stack monitor. Multiple boards can be linked
through a 2-wire isolated serial interface (isoSPI) to
monitor a long series of cells in a stack. The demo cir-
cuit also features reversible isoSPI enabling a redundant
communication path.
The DC2515 can communicate to a PC by connecting
directly to a DC2026 Linduino
loaded with the appropriate program (called a "sketch")

Daisy Chain isoSPI
Battery-Stack Monitor
to control the battery stack monitor IC and receive data
through a USB serial port. The DC2026C provides a stan-
dard SPI interface which can be connected directly to a
DC2515 board (J4 Connector). Or, the SPI can be trans-
lated to isoSPI and then connected to a DC2515 isoSPI
port (J2/J1 connector). The DC1941 provides a single
SPI-isoSPI channel, and the DC2792 provides two SPI-
isoSPI channels for reversible operation.
