Figure 3. Power Mode Diagram
HIBERNATE Mode
HIBERNATE mode could be used when the system equipment needs to enter a very low-power state, and
minimal gauge power consumption is required. This mode is ideal when a system equipment is set to its own
HIBERNATE, SHUTDOWN, or OFF modes.
Before the fuel gauge can enter HIBERNATE mode, the system must set the [HIBERNATE] bit of the
CONTROL_STATUS register. The gauge waits to enter HIBERNATE mode until it has taken a valid OCV
measurement and the magnitude of the average cell current has fallen below Hibernate Current. The gauge can
also enter HIBERNATE mode if the cell voltage falls below Hibernate Voltage. The gauge will remain in
HIBERNATE mode until the system issues a direct I
2
C command to the gauge. I
2
C Communication that is not
directed to the gauge will not wake the gauge (or at least for very long).
It is important that BAT_LOW/BAT_GD be set to disable status (no battery charging/discharging). This prevents
a charger application from inadvertently charging the battery before an OCV reading can be taken. It is the
system’s responsibility to wake the bq27510-G2 after it has gone into HIBERNATE mode. After waking, the
gauge can proceed with the initialization of the battery information (OCV, profile selection, etc.)
It is suggested to keep the system in the SLEEP mode instead of HIBERNATE mode when a charger is
attached. The reason is that charger removal will not wake up the battery from HIBERNATE mode.
