BQ27541-G1 firmware version different than expected - wrong IC or just fw version?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ27541-G1, BQ27541-V200

Hi,

I have 4 different "versions" of a gas gauge BQ27541-G1, and I'm having some problem with the firmware versions. One of them returns 0x0200, and I would like to know if that means it is a BQ27541-V200, or it can be indeed a G1, with an old firmware version. What will be the problems of writing a golden image made for the G1 version on the V200 (if it is indeed a V200)? I did write it thinking it was a G1, it didn't "brick" but I'm not sure it is working properly either.

Is it possible to find the firmware version it was shipped with(or actual version of the device)? If yes, then the following codes are written over the ICs:

bq 7541 TI K 22GC

bq 7541 TITI 33NF

bq 7541 TIUK 31ND

bq 7541 TIUK 3161
