Hi there,
i set up the EZ config method like it is written in the software implementation guide.
So i send the following parameters for my Varta Coinpower A4:
"DesignCap":"0x009B",
"dQAcc":"0x0004",
"IChgTerm":"0x0133",
"VEmpty":"0x8C52",
The parameters are written correctly to the device. After some time the DesignCap value changes from 0x9B (155mAh) to 0xBB8 (3000mAh).
Can somebody explain to me why this occures?
And a second question:
There is the Rsense/UserMem3 register (Adr. 0xD0). Is it okay to save the used rsense value there? I want to save it there to calc the current values based on this value.
Or is this register updated automatic, because when i read it there is just the value 0.
I am looking forward to a response.
Best regards,
Patrick
