    DN1 • 7 Since we want the voltag e appearing at the IC to be equivalent to one cell, we first must “divide” th e cell vo ltage by the number of cells in the pac k. The ladder resistors R2 -R24 form an ef fective voltage divider circuit so th at the BAT (pin 7) voltage will be about 1. 25 V per cel l. The sw itch can increase or decrease the B ...
