BQ27510-G3: Can Bq27510 support 2-cell battery packs?

Part Number: BQ27510-G3
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ27510,

Datasheet states: bq27510 system-side Li-Ion battery fuel gauge is a microcontroller peripheral that provides fuel gauging for single-cell Li-Ion battery packs. bqEasy software has configuration options for multiple cells. My question is, can bq27510 support battery packs that are more than single cell, e.g. 2 cells Samsung INR18650-30Q?

BTW, recently have TI release any new tool that can automatically complete learning cycle and generate golden image for Bq27510-G3?

using 2s with a single cell gauge_slua496a.pdfHi Yunfa,

We have an app note that describes how you can use a 2s config with our 1s gauge. see attached document.

We don't have a tool that will complete the entire process, but we have the gdk that will allow you automate the entire learning cycle, after which you extract a golden file. see the link to the tool below
