bq27441 EVM: System-Side Impedance Track™
This evaluation module (EVM) is a complete evaluation system for the bq27441. The EVM includes one
bq27441 circuit module with current-sense resistor. A separate orderable EV2300 or EV2400 PC interface
board for gas gauge interface along with a PC USB cable, and Microsoft
needed when using this EVM. The circuit module includes one bq27441 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 across the battery pack. With the EV2300 or EV2400 interface board and
software, the user can:
Read the bq27441 data registers
Update the RAM for different configurations
Log cycling data for further evaluation
Evaluate the overall functionality of the bq27441 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.
