We do not have Linux drivers to support the device.

Hi Wilson,

the bq40z60 gauging portion uses the standard SBS commands and these drivers are part of the Linux kernel. The communication protocol is SMBus. The SBS code is a good reference to implement other SMBus commands that you may need to communicate with the bq40z60.
