No. The Alert pin of MAX1762x family cannot be reset if the fault condition is still present. Users have to remove the fault condition in order to reset the Alert pin. Here is a typical example.
The…
If you want to use external temperature measurement (not the ext. thermister or internal die temp) and write to the temperature register from your host then the most important bit is setting Tex = 1 in…
VCell is measured via the CELLX pin. The LSB of the CELLX measurement is shown on page 7 of the datasheet (19-100318; Rev 0). Moreover, the IC uses 16 bit registers and the voltage measurements are unsigned…
The operating current may be reduced by adjusting the "FilterCfg Register (29h)" in the MAX17261. Please note this should not be preformed unless absolutely necessary as this may effect the accuracy of…
The following is the code for sending POR to the MAX17260:
USB.WriteRegister(0x6c, 0x60, 0x0F); //Write Register 0x60 with value of 0x000F
Thread.Sleep(500); //wait 500mS
USB.WriteRegister(0x6c…
There is no minimum sense resistor specification for ModelGauge m5 fuel gauages. It is important to be aware though that there is an analog constraint of +/-50mV between the sense resistor pins. Make sure…
There is no document regarding the model unlock feature of MAX17261. The SW implementation guide instructs to unlock the model access in order to update the custom model, and then locks it back.
Care…
A positive drift may occur if there is a leakage path that discharges the battery that is not measured by the sense resistor or if there is a ground loop on the test setup. We recommend you try using an…
There is always noise in the current measurement, but the noise averages down so the AvgCurrent (and Coulomb conter) are typically 1LSB of noise (78.125 uA with 20mOhm).
