On start up of Battery management system, I am measuring voltage across the CHG FET and none over the DSG as I would expect. On start up of the BQ Studio Software after enabling FETs I'm seeing these registers set:
My circuit for my system is based off an 8 series configuration of the bq76942EVM circuit with a multiple parallel FET circuit with current loops for the CHG and DSG of the system (referenced from Multiple FETs with the BQ769x2 Battery Monitors).
The FET Enable pin seems to toggle fine but the CHG and DSG are permanently off and there doesn't seem to be anything I can do about it software wise. I wondered if there were any noticeable problems in the registers that are being set high as shown in the picture, possibly faults being triggered that I'm not aware of. I noticed SD_CMD was permanently high whether that restricts function of the chip or not?
Any advice would be great.
