Hello,
I hope someone can help me over here. We currently looking at an updated battery management IC for a future design, the IC we are looking at is the bq40z50-r1. The IC chip that we are currently using is the bq20z95 but we want to get a comparison between the bq20z95 and bq40z50-r1.
At this moment we see that the bq40z50-r1 has more protection features, improved charging algorithms, a lot more primary and secondary safety features, smaller sense resistor is used, etc. What I would like to know is what is the most significant improvements or core improvements of the bq40z50-r1 over the bq20z95?
Also is there a better battery management IC chip I can use?
Kind Regards,
Nilesh
