Temperature information for the fuel gauge can be configured from three separate sources:
The OpConfig [TEMPS] bits can be used to select the source, as shown below:
OpConfig [TEMPS] | Temperature Source |
---|---|
00 | Internal Temperature Sensor is used as Temperature Source. |
01 | External Thermistor is used as Temperature Source. |
10 | Host written Temperature is used as Temperature Source. |
Regardless of which sensor is used for measurement, the system processor can request the current battery temperature being used by the algorithm by calling the Temperature() function.
