PRODUCTION DATA
Use the BQ27Z561-R2 gas gauge with a 1-series Li-ion or Li-polymer battery pack. To implement and design a comprehensive set of parameters for a specific battery pack, use the Battery Management Studio (BQSTUDIO), a PC-based graphical user-interface tool. The firmware installed in the product has default values, which are summarized in the BQ27Z561-R2 Technical Reference Manual. Using the BQSTUDIO tool, change the default values to cater to specific application requirements during development once the system parameters, such as enable and disable of certain features for operation, cell configuration, chemistry that best matches the cell used, and more are known. The final flash image is extracted after configuration and testing are complete. The final flash image is used for mass production and is referred to as the golden image.
