Hello Everyone,
We have a puzzle question need your help.
Recently, we have some field return battery pack (GG: bq20Z95), symptom is no communication and SBS show "SMB terminated".
1) Could you please tell me why the SBS show "SMB terminated" and what condition maybe the root cause?
2)Whether it can recover? Need what operation?
Thanks & regards,
Suren
You Can measure the REG33 on pin 8 to see if you have 3.30vdc. That will tell you if the chip is alive. If the pack voltage gets too low it will go to sleep or shutdown. All smb communicaation will stop. The second concern is the SMB pins 18 and 19. With the EV2300 connected those pins should have 2.79 vdc. A low voltage could mean a damaged IC.
Hope that helps.
Dear Mike,
Thanks for your reply.
1. Voltage of key (REG and SMBD/C) pin and resistance of each pin are good.
2. Maybe these issue caused by dataflash corruption issue.
