BQ34Z100-G1 - Questions about the production and flash the firmware

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ34Z100-G1, BQ34Z100, BQSTUDIO

Dear Team,

one of my customers has the following questions.

We will use the BQ34Z100-G1 gauge (www.ti.com/.../BQ34Z100-G1) for a produces an average series. And we have to program the gauge semi-automated manner.

There is a user guide that guides slua665 into production of devices using BQ34Z100. It is also valid for the G1 review?

And you can get information on how to flash the firmware chip before programming the settings (e.g. the eval kit came with an old firmware that we had to reschedule before the deal).

Could you please advice?

Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

Best regards,

We do not have a Going to Production document for the bq34z100-G1. The calibration information will be the same. The -G1 tools do not support .dfi files, but you can still export and import the data flash with the examples in the document using you own tools. The bq34z100-G1 tools use the .srec file format. You can use bqStudio, if you want to program the full flash memory.
