BQ27Z561-R2: Multiple ChemIDs exist

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

Tool/software:

Hi,


I obtained ChemID using GPC-Tool.
There are multiple ChemIDs, but which one should I choose?

First of all, why are there multiple ones?

Chemistry ID selection tool, rev=2.54		
		
Configuration used in present fit:		
ProcessingType = 2		
NumCellSeries = 1		
ElapsedTimeColumn=0		
VoltageColumn = 1		
CurrentColumn = 2		
TemperatureColumn = 3		
		
Best chemical ID : 222	Best chemical ID max. deviation, % : 2.36	
		
		
		
Summary of all IDs with max. DOD deviation below 3%		
		
Chem ID	max DOD error, %	Max R deviation, ratio
222	2.36	0.66
2795	2.56	0.61
		
Max. deviations for best ID is within recommended range. Chosen best chemical ID is suitable for programming the gauge.		
		
		
Selection of best generic ID for ROM based devices like bq274xx		
		
		
Device / Family #1		
Generic Chem ID	Device/ Voltage/ Chemistry	max DOD error, %
3142	bq27421-G1D: 4.4V LiCoO2	8.97
354	bq27411-G1C: 4.35V LiCoO2	10.42
128	bq27421-G1A: 4.2V LiCoO2	27.28
312	bq27421-G1B: 4.3V LiCoO2	35.82
Best generic ID 3142		
Warning: Deviation for best generic ID is above recommended level for this device / family. Consider using another device, flash based gauge or RAM programming of custom ID.		
		
		
Device / Family #2		
Generic Chem ID	Device/ Voltage/ Chemistry	max DOD error, %
1210	bq27621:  (ALT_CHEM1) 4.3V LiCoO2	8.92
354	bq27621:  (ALT_CHEM2) 4.35V LiCoO2	10.42
1202	bq27621: (default) 4.2V LiCoO2	12.98
Best generic ID 1210		
Warning: Deviation for best generic ID is above recommended level for this device / family. Consider using another device, flash based gauge or RAM programming of custom ID.		
		
		
Device / Family #3		
Generic Chem ID	Device/ Voltage/ Chemistry	max DOD error, %
3142	bq27426: (ALT-CHEM2) 4.4V LiCoO2	8.97
3230	bq27426: (default) 4.35V LiCoO2	11.26
1202	bq27426: (ALT_CHEM1) 4.2V LiCoO2	12.98

  • Hello, 

    Can you please send over the data that you sent over for the GPCCHEM tool? I find it very suspicious that you only got 2 good matches. Additionally, when you took the log for the GPCCHEM tool, did you have any protections connected to the battery pack? This can cause an issue when collecting data. 

    Regards, 

    Robert. 

  • Hello, Robert.

    My question is "There are multiple ChemIDs to choose from in BQSTUDIO."

    However, since you want to see the logs, I will send them to you.

    The battery pack has no protection.

    ・Please tell me why there are multiple ChemIDs to choose from and which one should I choose?

    Regards,

  • Hello, 

    On my bqStudio version and chemID updater version I do not see multiple chemIDs for this. Please ensure you are using the most up to date bqStudio and ChemID Updater versions. Otherwise you could also use the other chemID your cells matched with (ID# 2795). 

    Regards, 

    Robert. 


  • Hello, Robert.

    I use BQSTUDIO and it shows multiple versions.

    What version are you using? (Q1)


    I use the following, which I believe is the latest version.

              BQStudio (Version 1.3.127 Release date:01 Jul 2024)

              Chem (Version=1112 )

    Do you think it is not the latest version? (Q2)

    I also sent the log as requested.
    You said you have questions.

    I would like to hear your opinions on this. (Q3)

    Regards,

  • Hello, 

    You are using the correct version. I have consulted the team on this and will get back to you. 

    Regards, 

    Robert. 

  • Hello, 

    I have discussed this with our chemID expert and the feedback I received was that it does not matter which of the 5 chemID names you choose for the chemID #222. This is because all of the 5 names share the exact same data regarding the chemID. 

    Regards, 

    Robert.
