BQ27510 G2 firmware update

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ27510-G2, BQ27510

The slua658 change list says the G2 needs FW version 1.23 but on the product page it has the G3 firmware image (version 4.0). Firmware version 1.23 is not listed. Is the G3 firmware the correct version to load on the G2 parts? Will we be loading the same image on both G2 and G3?”

 

Thank you,

Adam

  • It looks like the bq27510-G2 (v1.23) SENC file is missing from ti.com. 

    In case you need it,I've attached it here.

    The latest version of bq27510 is G3, with FW version 4.00, as you mentioned.  The 4.00 SENC can be used to update G1 or G2 ICs to G3.  Do NOT load a golden file (DFI or DFFS) created for G2 FW onto an IC with G3 FW.  The golden file will need to be updated or recreated to be compatible with G3 FW.

    The bq27510-G2 to G3 change-list has not been published yet, but most of the changes are very similar to those of the bq27520-G3 to G4 change-list.
