BQ28Z610: Using Bq28z610 as system side gauge IC

Part Number: BQ28Z610

Hi,

I am using IC as Host side Gauge IC. IN one of ppt I have seen BQ28z610 should be used as Pack side Gauging solution. Please let me know how this will impact my application. 

  • Pack side is better in accuracy because the gauge stays with the battery for its lifetime and the learning is only for that battery.  Host side every time the battery is replaced the gauge has to learn the new battery, so the initial accuracy is off until the new battery is learnt.
