SLUUCP8 June 2024 BQ41Z50
The BQ41Z50 device can permanently disable the battery pack in case the impedance of one of the cells is much higher than the others.
Reference Grid is configurable from 0 (resistance at fully charged cell) to 14 (resistance at fully discharged cell). The default setting of Reference Grid = 4 is a good typical value to use because it is close to the average in the range of 20% to 100% SOC. Design Resistance is automatically calculated and updated during the learning cycle and is part of the golden image).
This check is only performed when the gauge updates the Ra data for the Reference Grid directly. If a selected grid point is typically being scaled rather than directly updated by the gauge (for example, grid point 0 or grid point 14), this check is effectively disabled. It is recommended to use the default Design Resistance setting.
Status | Condition | Action |
---|---|---|
Normal | Δ(Cell 1..4 R_a at IT Cfg:Reference Grid) < (IMP:Delta Threshold × IT Cfg:Design Resistance) | PFAlert()[IMP] = 0 |
Alert | Δ(Cell 1..4 R_a at IT Cfg:Reference Grid) ≥ (IMP:Delta Threshold × IT Cfg:Design Resistance) | PFAlert()[IMP] = 1 |
Trip | Δ(Cell 1..4 R_a at IT Cfg:Reference Grid) ≥ (IMP:Delta Threshold × IT Cfg:Design Resistance) for IMP:Ra Update Counts | PFAlert()[IMP] = 0 PFStatus()[IMP] = 1 BatteryStatus()[TCA] = 1 BatteryStatus()[TDA] = 1 |
Trip | Δ(Cell 1..4 R_a at IT Cfg:Reference Grid) ≥ (IMP:Max Threshold × IT Cfg:Design Resistance) | PFAlert()[IMP] = 0 PFStatus()[IMP] = 1 |
