BQ27Z561-R2: As the discharge current decreased, the RSOC decreased.

Part Number: BQ27Z561-R2
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: GPCCHEM,

Tool/software:

Can someone explain?

RSOC dropped sharply as current draw decreased.

(Top of current graph is cutoff, charging current: over 200mA)

Systems downstream of the gauge switched to power saving mode. (Around line 700 of the log)

If you compare cumulative draw with cumulative charge, you would expect RSOC to be higher.

・Why does this trajectory happen?

・Is there any way to prevent this?

  • Hello, 

    Can you also provide me with your gg file? Additionally, have you taken a look at the End of Discharge SOC Jump Elimination document? This document could be helpful here. 

    Regards, 

    Jonny. 

  • Hi Jonny

    I've attached the gg-file.

    This file was read at the start.

    It is not the one obtained when this issue occurred.

    "End of Discharge SOC Jump Elimination" Thank you.

    I've read it. It seems to have a hint, but I'm not sure if it will lead to the answer.

  • Hello, 

    Looking at the gg file you have provided, it looks like you have not completed the learning cycle. This is a possible cause for this behavior. Please refer to the Achieving the Successful Learning Cycle Document for this. Additionally, please ensure that you have received an adequate chemID match (you can use the GPCCHEM tool for this), in order to have a good match you want the DOD % error to be less than 3%. 

    Regards, 

    Jonny. 

  • Hi Jonny

    I thought the learning cycle completed correctly.
    Please let me know what went wrong.

    Log when creating golden image

    ChemID(2151)_make_GI.log

  • Hello, 

    My apologies, it looks like the Qmax and Ra values have been updated successfully, but Impedance Track Gauging is disabled. Please enable Impedance Track Gauging. Additionally, your GPCCHEM report that you received for your cells looks good. 

    Regards, 

    Jonny. 

  • Hi Jonny,

    I saw "SLUA903". Disable the IT gauge by setting the update status to 02.

    That's where I got it wrong.

    Can you tell me what it does when you write the golden image file?

    •  Impedance Track gauging is enabled.

    What else is there?

  • Hello, 

    Please refer to this E2E thread on why you will want Impedance Track to be enabled. 

    Regards, 

    Jonny. 

  • Hi Jonny

    I understand that the impedance track can be enabled.

    However, the impedance track becomes disabled during operation.

    Is this correct?

    In the first place, Do I need to implement a mechanism to enable when disabled?

    Also, from what I read in the E2E thread, "data is not guaranteed when the

    impedance track is disabled." Is there a way to always enable the impedance track?

  • Hello, 

    Please see the following screenshot taken from the bq27z561-R2 TRM. 

    Regards, 

    Jonny.
