BQ28Z610: gas gauge for single cell LiFePO4

Part Number: BQ28Z610
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ34110

Dear BGP team,

I have a new request from customer who wants to design new product with battery integrated, single cell (LiFePO4).

Battery is used in back-up to maintain power supply in case of a power failure and to deliver extra power in case of heavy load (power supply not sized to deliver peak current). Battery is allways connected to the load. It is also always connected to the charging circuit .

What would be the best algorithm to track the battery capacity?

Does impedance tracking require to measure the open cicuit voltage?

Could you please recommend a suitable fuel gauge? BQ28Z610 sounds good fit, pls confirm.

thanks

paul

  • Hi, Paul,

       Our gauge part bq34110 is the best one for your customer's need; it's the best for all systems power backup, like UPS, energy storage, building security asset tracking and emergencybBattery power modules.
