Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQSTUDIO
Here are several questions that I have regarding bring up of a custom PCB using the bq40z60.
1) Is it necessary to do a learning cycle in order to get the charging section to work?
2) I have the same problem as others in this forum with the ACLW bit toggling all the time and charging either not starting or stopping all together only to start again if I raise the adaptor voltage.
a. Once I raise the adaptor voltage it will start again and again stop unless I raise the voltage again.
3) I've seen mention of setting the charging voltage threshold within bqStudio but have not seen that variable
4) I'd like to be able to set parameters within data flash in order to get charging to work at a constant current and stop at 4.2V/Cell, I have a 3s4p battery pack setup with all the correct jumpers necessary for that.
