bq27621 EVM: Single-Cell Rechargeable Lithium Battery
Gauge Evaluation Module
This evaluation module (EVM) is a complete evaluation system for the bq27621 fuel gauge. The circuit
module includes one bq27621 integrated circuit and all other onboard components necessary to monitor
and predict capacity for a system-side fuel gauge solution. The circuit module connects directly to a
rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack. Without any configuration, the battery voltage, temperature, and
State of Charge (SOC in %) can be immediately read from the gauge with confidence. By quickly
configuring a few parameters like battery capacity (Design Capacity and Design Energy), full charge
condition (Taper Rate), and empty condition (Terminate Voltage), more accurate values of estimated
current (in mA) and remaining capacity (in mAh) can be read from the gauge. The bq27621-G1 IC
contains three battery profiles for typical rechargeable lithium cells that can be selected based on the
maximum charging voltage (4.2 V, 4.3 V, and 4.35 V).
A separate orderable EV2300 or EV2400 PC interface board for gas gauge interface along with a PC USB
cable, and Windows®-based PC software is needed when using this EVM. With the EV2300 or EV2400
interface board and Battery Management Studio (bqStudio) software, the user can:
• Read the bq27621 data registers
• Update the RAM for different configurations
• Log cycling data for further evaluation
• Evaluate the overall functionality of the bq27621 solution under different charge and discharge
conditions
The latest Windows-based PC software can be downloaded from the product folder on the Texas
Instruments Web site.
