Part Number: BQ34110
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ34Z100-G1, BQMTESTER, BQSTUDIO

Do you have any material for bq34110 going to production?

And please let me know the minimum parameters that we should set for correct device operation.

Best Regards,

    Hi Sasaki-san,

    We don't have any going to production material for the bq34110. However, the procedure is the same as in the other bq34z100-g1 in slua665, 

    . I hope this helps.

    Batt-san,

    Thank you for your reply.

    On this material, .DFI or .ROM file and bqMtester are used for device programming.

    However I think we can use bqstudio and DFFS file instead of those. Is it right?

    And please let me know the minimum parameter items that we should set for correct device operation.
    From bqStudio "Project" tab, only taper current and terminate voltage is required.

    I think other parameters should be also set, design capacity, design voltage and so on. Are these not required with bq34110?

    Best Regards,

    Hi Sasaki-san,

    I believe that the other parameters should also be set on the gauge like you said. You can use bqstudio and flash a .srec file. The fw tab on bqstudio should allow you to export a .srec file for the gauge. I'm not seeing the gauge support dffs here.

    Batt-san,

    Do you have minimum required parameters which customer should set?

    I think a .srec file is used with bqstudio only. And I think we cannot use it at customer mass-production process.

    We would like to know the method of device data flash setting at customer mass-production process.

    As there is description about golden image on the bq34110EVM users guide P.12, I think we can export srec, bqfs and dffs file from bqstudio Golden Image screen.

    We program device setting by using this bqfs or dffs file at customer mass-production process, right?

    Best Regards,

    Hi Sasaki-san,

    Yes, you are right. You can use the bqfs or dffs for mass production. If you re not changing fw, you can simply import the dffs file as it's a hex file with read/write instructions. Please see the gauge communication http://www.ti.com/sitesearch/docs/universalsearch.tsp?searchTerm=gauge%20communication#q=gauge%20communication&t=technicaldocument&linkId=3 for help.
