Hi Team,

I have created .srec, .bq.fs and df.fs file.

I have connected bq27541-g1 to i2c on SAM21 Micro controller.

What is the best way to flash gg file using micro controller ?

Any test programs to flash gg file using .srec file would be really helpful?

Thanks,

Check the gauge communications applications note. There is an example there with C code for fs file programming.

Hi Kang,
I am using micro controller to flash. I cannot use the example program given in the application note as it reads from the file and then writes.
Can we use srec file to flash the fuel gauge using i2c?

please give your inputs on:
1: How to use srec file to flash fuel gauge
2: how to use the example c program on micro controller (SAM21C) to flash fs file?

Thanks
