Hello!
I am interested in using one of your fuel management ICs (especially, e.g. bq27530) in a new project. I would like to have the normal fuel gauging functions provided.
However, I am interested in also reading the instantaneous DISCHARGE current (by an ADC reading of the sense resistor) at a periodic rate as part of the overall system application.
Using one of these IC's, is it possible to:
1) Cause an ADC reading over the serial bus and get an measure of the discharge current?
2) What is the maximum rate at which these readings would be able to occur over the serial interface (limited by ADC conversion rate + SPI speed, etc.)?
Thank you for any help,
Ray
