BQ34Z100-G1: Gauge is reading 0% all of the time

Eric Smith77

Part Number: BQ34Z100-G1

I have programmed the fuel gauge with a NiMH battery and have been running tests on it. Everything is working really well, including the voltage and current readings. However, the percentage is always reading 0%, and I cannot figure out why.

Hi Eric,

Please check if you have yout thermistor reading the correct temperature. If not, your RSOC can be set to 0.

I checked the thermistor and it seemed to be working well. I reloaded the code and the percentage started working. I let it run overnight, and I came back this morning with the percentage back to always reading 0.

Actually, the thermistor was still having some issues. I resolved that and everything seems to be working well now. I will let you know if there are any other issues.
