BQ76940EVM: BQ76940

Part Number: BQ76940EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ78350, BQ76940

Hello,

I wonder what should I do if the alert pin caused an interrupt on uC but for some reason (e.g. problem in I2C communication) I couldn't clear the SYS_STAT (0x00) register.

note: I'm not using BQ78350 as host.

Thanks,

Regards,

João Paulo

  • Hi Joao Paulo,
    If there is noise on the I2C and the slave device holds SDA low the master should send clocks so that the slave releases the bus. A host should implement this recovery mechanism. Once the bus is clear send the status register clear command. The bq76940 does not have a reset pin.
