BQ4050: Why my BQstudio display like this:No acknowledge from device.

Part Number: BQ4050
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQSTUDIO, , EV2400

Hello,

I connected the bq4050 with EV2400.But the screen  always display the : No acknowledge from device.From the picture below we could see :The BQstudio has detected the bq4050.Why No acknowledge from device ?

In addition to this,I start to log it with 1A discharge current.Then BQstudio gengerate a log.err log like the picture below?why ?

please review my schematic of bq4050 ,Is there any error????

  • You have to adjust your cell config correctly to prevent the gauge from shutting down. Please set CC1, CC0 to 01, this will change your config to a 1s config like your schematic shows.

  • Dear Batt

    Thank you for your help.

    As written in  the bq4050 Technical Reference Datasheet :

    CC1, CC0 (Bit 1,0): Cell Count

    1,1 = 4 cell

    1,0 = 3 cell (default)
    0,1 = 2 cell
    0,0 = 1 cell

    So My question is:

    1:Setting CC1, CC0 to 01 will change the Cell Count to 2cell.What is it for?

    2:Another question ,What do you mean by that "this will change your config to a 1s config like your schematic shows"??

  • 1. Ah, sorry. That was a typo, I meant 00 instead of 01. CC1, CC0 set to 00 is 1 cell.

    2. Your schematic shows a 1s config, I was thinking your config in df was not set to 1s and that was causing your issues.
