BQ78350-R1: How to know whether battery is over charged/discharged?

Part Number: BQ78350-R1

I am using BQ78350-R1. Is there any command to know the battery is over charged/discharged?

Is there any other procedure which will tell us the battery is overcharged/discharged. 

  • Hi Ranjith,

    I think there are multiple commands that may be helpful to determine whether the battery is over-charged or discharged.
    0x09 Voltage() - returns the sum of the measured cell voltages
    0x0D RelativeStateOfCharge() - If you have set up the gauging feature correctly, you can read the state of charge (0-100%). For information on setting up the gauging feature, refer to www.ti.com/.../slua924.pdf
    0x0F - Remaining Capacity()
    0x16 - BatteryStatus() - reports multiple status bits like Overcharge Alarm, Fully Charged, Fully discharged, etc.
    0x51 - SafetyStatus() - reports protection faults based on your protection settings

    Full details on all of these commands are available in the Technical Reference Manual (TRM) for this device: www.ti.com/.../sluubd3d.pdf

    Best regards,
    Matt
