SLUUAQ3A April 2016 – October 2022 BQ4050
The BQ4050 updates FCC with an amount based on the value in DCR if a qualified discharge occurs. The new value for FCC equals the DCR value plus the programmable nearly full and low battery levels, according to the following equation:
FCC (new) = DCR (final) = DCR (initial) + Measured Discharge to EDV2 + (FCCx Battery Low%)
Battery Low % = (DF value) ÷ 2.56
A qualified discharge occurs if the battery discharges from RM ≥ FCC – Near Full to the EDV2 voltage threshold with the following conditions:
The BQ4050 sets VDQ = 1 in pack status when a qualified discharge begins. The BQ4050 sets VDQ = 0 if any disqualifying condition occurs. FCC cannot be reduced by more than 256 mAh or increased by more than 512 mAh during any single update cycle. The BQ4050 saves the new FCC value to the data flash within 4 seconds of being updated.
