Hello,
We are using the BQ27541-G1. I wanted to see if there is some more detail about the state of charge smoothing? It doesn't really say how SOC is changed, how fast, etc. in the datasheet.
“When operating conditions change (such as temperature, discharge current, and resistance, and so on), it can
lead to large changes of compensated battery capacity and battery capacity remaining. These changes can
result in large changes of StateOfCharge(). When [SmoothEn] is enabled in Pack Configuration C, the
smoothing algorithm injects gradual changes of battery capacity when conditions vary. This results in a gradual
change of StateOfCharge() and can provide a better end-user experience for StateOfCharge() reporting.”
A 2nd question about the same part. If we need to update the Pack Config Register in the field, is the process to unseal the FG, change the register value, and reseal?
Thank you
