  • Hi,

    Please post it under the bq24715 as your gauge only controls current by turning FETs off when it hits taper conditions. The charger is responsible for current until charge termination is reached.

  • Batt,

    but the current is sense by BQ30Z50 ,The charge BQ24715 only supply power to charge,when charge current bigger than battery request,the BQ30z50 must close the charge FETs or not? and bq24715 could not control the charge current because is the CV state.

  • The gauge only requests current, it has control over OCC, OCD and other protections but it will deliver what current is provided by the charger. Please remember, the gauge is only responsible for protections and gauging related FET actions, in other cases it passes through the current to the system as the charger provides it.
