Hello all,
We will soon try the bq34z110EVM demo board and software, to have an overview of its capabilities when monitoring a string of 1 to 4 (or 3 apparantly due to a limitation in the demo board) lead-acid batteries.
I have some basic questions:
1) will it allow monitoring the "state of charge" and "state of health" of the individual batteries in the string?
If not, would doing so require a more complex circuit, for example with one bq34z110 IC per battery to be monitored?
2) Can the "battery conductance" be obtained from this platform (ideally the conductance of each battery in the string)?
3) if we select a "battery chemistry profile" from your database that matches the monitored batteries make/model and "flash that" to the demo board, will this system then make reasonnably accurate measurements, without going through learning/calibration cycles? (Hassle-free, out-of-the-box operation would be great!)
4) Can the demo board be modified to monitor a string a 4 lead-Acid batteries (60V max)?
Thank you!
