I²C Interface
The bq27510-G3 fuel gauge supports the standard I²C read, incremental read, quick read, one byte write, and
incremental write functions. The 7-bit device address (ADDR) is the most significant 7 bits of the hex address
and is fixed as 1010101. The first 8-bits of the I²C protocol is, therefore, 0xAA or 0xAB for write or read,
respectively.

The “quick read” returns data at the address indicated by the address pointer. The address pointer, a register
internal to the I²C communication engine, increments whenever data is acknowledged by the fuel gauge or the
I²C master. “Quick writes” function in the same manner and are a convenient means of sending multiple bytes to
consecutive command locations (such as two-byte commands that require two bytes of data)
The following command sequences are not supported:
Attempt to write a read-only address (NACK after data sent by master):
Attempt to read an address above 0x6B (NACK command):
I²C Time Out
The I²C engine releases both SDA and SCL if the I²C bus is held low for 2 seconds. If the fuel gauge was
holding the lines, releasing them frees them for the master to drive the lines. If an external condition is holding
either of the lines low, the I²C engine enters the low-power sleep mode.
