Hi Giorgia,
These chargers don't have software/firmware. TI provides a GUI, either online or from downloaded BQSTUDIO, to read and write the I2C registers. The BQ25798 registers are inherited from BQ25792 but include a few more for the MPPT and backup mode features.

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for your answer.
My question is more about the configuration file generated by the GUI: starting from TPS25750DRJKR + BQ25792, if I replace the BQ25792 with BQ25798, the same file should work with TPS25750DRJKR + BQ25798, correct?
Thanks,
Giorgia
Hi Giorgia,
I don't support that TPS25750+BQ25792 reference design but I am told that the BQ25798 is drop in replacement for BQ25792.

Jeff
Hello Giorgia,
To my knowledge the file from the TPS25750 GUI should work with BQ25798, however we have not tested the TPS25750 firmware with the BQ25798 specifically.
