ZHCSD95D January 2015 – April 2021 BQ34Z100-G1
PRODUCTION DATA
The default setup of the BQ34Z100-G1 uses the I2C digital interface with the ALERT pin as an additional digital interrupt output. It is recommended to keep the device in this mode throughout development and battery production even if the single-wire HDQ interface will be used in the field. The I2C is much faster so any modifications to the device configuration and any data logging during battery evaluation or testing would be faster.
There are a series of commands required to switch between I2C and HDQ, which are detailed in Section 7.3.15.6.
