Am I able to use the integrated LDO to power something externally? I assume this 1.8V VDD is used to power the 1.8V logic lines, so making sure it doesn't droop is important.
How much current could I pull?
Thanks,

Hello Cameron,
No, you are not able to use the integrated LDO to power anything else. The BQ27427 uses a very weak LDO
(to maintain low power consumption) and is not able to sink any current other than the current necessary
for the gauge.
Sincerely,
Nick Richards
