Tool/software:

Hello Alex/team,

We have been using Bq76952 and recently wanting to switch to Bq76972 since they are exactly same and 972 comes with a better precision.

So, wanted to know how compatible are the drivers of Bq76952 with Bq76972?

Can we use our existing software drivers that we use for Bq76952 with Bq76972 in case we decide to go ahead with 972?

If not, what will be the minor/major changes that we might need to accomodate in order to support Bq76972?

  • Hello Sourabh,

    You should be able to use your existing software for bq76952 with the bq76972. There shouldn’t have to be any changes needed.

    Best Regards,
    Alexis
