Other Parts Discussed in Thread: EV2400
Hello,
I have a few procedure questions below to make sure we are taking the right steps:
- I have connected the EV2400 to the bq27520 (on our board) over i2c. I am able to read registers, run commands and upload a battery chemistry to the bq27520 via the EV2400. Once I have uploaded a chemistry to the bq27520 I issue a Reset Command, IT Enable Command and Sealed Command. I then run the our board though charge / discharge cycles however the True SOC stays at 100% or 0%. The first time I ran a charge / discharge cycle the SOC was reported and looked correct however.
- Is this the correct process? If not can you please provide the correct process for updating the chemistry file on a bq27520 via the EV2400.
- Additionally, I am writing a script that will program the “Golden Image” onto our bq27520 while on the production line.I have found I am able to use the EV2400 to extract a Golden Image. The tool creates a .srec file, .bq.fs file and a df.fs file.
- Can you please provide the process for flashing these files onto a bq27520?
- Through trial and error I have got several devices stuck in the ROM mode.
- Can you please provide instructions on how to take a device out of ROM mode?
Thanks,
Nick
