Hi,

Sealed mode is described in the BQ78350-R1 Technical Reference Manual. It is used to secure the battery so that someone cannot change the settings who does not know the passcode to unseal the device. Here is the description from the manual:

The Seal Device command instructs the device to limit access to the SBS functions and data flash space
and sets the [SEC1][SEC0] flags. In SEALED mode, standard SBS functions have access per the Smart
Battery Data Specification. Extended SBS functions and data flash are not accessible.

Best regards,

Matt

Are you still able to communicate with the device? Try to cycle power on the EVM and restart BQStudio and re-try this.

what is meant by cycle power on the EVM.

Cycle power - turn power to the EVM off and on. Are you applying power to the EVM BAT+ and BAT- terminals?

Hi,

I am also working with Pavani on a different question which may be related. The other question is about why the cell voltages are not updating.

If the cell voltages are not updating and the device cannot enter ROM mode, they device may have been damaged. I suggest replacing the IC because it is not behaving normally.

I'm sorry, I cannot help you find FAE support - please contact your distributor or local TI sales office. E2E is not the place to request local support.

Best regards,

Matt
