Hello,
I'm working with the bq27542-G1 in a custom design and the SOC values are inaccurate. A golden pack was created initially and the gauge values were fine. We are unsure why the gauge is inaccurate now but we wanted to know if there were a way to correct the gauge in the field. Our MCU is connected to the gauge via I2C. Is there a command we can send to re-calibrate the gauge. We don't have control over the current since it is in a device so we can't calibrate with open circuit or anything like that.
What we are currently seeing is a SOC anywhere from 25%-37% with a battery voltage of around 3.3V. Based on our current draw, we expect this to be around 7 - 13% SOC. Is there anything we can do to tweak the gauge on the fly?
Thanks
Craig
