EV2200 PC Interface Board for Gas Gauge Evaluation

 851 views

The EV2200 provides a development and evaluation environment for HDQ based and SMBus based gas gauge ICs. The EV2200 provides connections for the communication lines of an intelligent battery and a serial interface port of a Windows-based PC. With the EV2200, the user can read/write the gas gauge registers of each IC and monitor the batterys status. In the SBS SMBus environment, the interface board and software allow the battery pack designer to evaluate the function of the ICs, calibrate the intelligent battery circuit for current, temperature, and voltage measurements, and program the external EEPROM. The evaluation system includes the interface board and PC software.
