Hi,
our Gas Gauge is powered by the battery it watches and by external power supply.
I have observed a strange behaviour when the battery is removed during normal operation:
The voltage is correctly shown (slowly going down to nearly 0V because of capacitance, BATLOW gets set), but SOC stays at the last value (90%).
Even the current doesn't change.
I would expect the SOC and current to be 0 when the battery is removed and it is the case when i send a Reset to the Gas Gauge or switch the external power off and on again. But a reset is no option.
IT is not yet enabled, but all other values are set correctly, calibration is done.
Will it work if IT is enabled?
My application must detect when there is no battery (dis)charge (no current to/from battery, even when the reason is a removed battery).
Best Regards,
Sebastian
