14.2 EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE SENSOR
In fast charge control applications, where close monitoring of the charging pro-
cess is required (especially temperature), an external temperature sensor (ther-
mistor) is recommended. This external thermistor connects to the TM pin (see
Figure 14-2), and its voltage measured via channel 4 (AN4, see Analog Sub-
system section) of the Analog Subsystem. For faster temperature response time
and more accurate measurement (required for fast charge control), the thermistor
should be mounted directly to the battery pack.
