PRODUCTION DATA.
The fuel gauge temperature sensing circuitry is designed to work with a negative temperature coefficient-type (NTC) thermistor with a characteristic 10-kΩ resistance at room temperature (25°C). The default curve-fitting coefficients configured in the fuel gauge specifically assume a Semitec 103AT type thermistor profile and so that is the default recommendation for thermistor selection purposes. Moving to a separate thermistor resistance profile (for example, JT-2 or others) requires an update to the default thermistor coefficients, which can be modified in RAM to ensure highest accuracy temperature measurement performance. For more details, see the Temperature Measurement section of the bq34210-Q1 TRM (SLUUBE8).
