Introduction

The EV2500 EVM interface board enables the user to communicate to TI gas gauges using SMBus and I2C interfaces (SPI/UART will be supported in a future update). This allows the user to change configurations, log data, and other features when using in tandem with the Battery Management Studio GUI. The EV2500 is an upgraded version of the previous EV2400 that allows for 1MHz communication speed on I2C and SMBus, different voltage pullup options, and other new features.

This board is intended for evaluation purposes only, and does not support production.
