When Voltage( ) falls below the system shut down threshold voltage, SysDown Set Volt Threshold, the
[SYSDOWN] flag is set, serving as a final warning to shut down the system. The SOC_INT also signals.
When Voltage( ) rises above SysDown Clear Voltage and the [SYSDOWN] flag has already been set,
the [SYSDOWN] flag is cleared. The SOC_INT also signals such change. All units are in mV.
When the voltage is discharged to Final Voltage, the SOC will be set as 0.
5.2 IMPEDANCE TRACK™ VARIABLES
The bq27520-G3 has several data flash variables that permit the user to customize the Impedance
Track™ algorithm for optimized performance. These variables are dependent upon the power
characteristics of the application as well as the cell itself.
5.2.1 Load Mode
Load Mode is used to select either the constant-current or constant-power model for the Impedance
Track™ algorithm as used in Load Select (see Load Select). When Load Mode is 0, the Constant
Current Model is used (default). When 1, the Constant Power Model is used. The [LDMD] bit of
CONTROL_STATUS reflects the status of Load Mode.
5.2.2 Load Select
Load Select defines the type of power or current model to be used to compute load-compensated
capacity in the Impedance Track™ algorithm. If Load Mode = 0 (Constant-Current) then the options
presented in Table 5-1 are available.

Current Model Used
Average discharge current from previous cycle: There is an internal register that records the average discharge
current through each entire discharge cycle. The previous average is stored in this register.
Present average discharge current: This is the average discharge current from the beginning of this discharge cycle
until present time.
Average current: based on AverageCurrent( )
Current: based off of a low-pass-filtered version of AverageCurrent( ) (τ =14 s)
Design capacity / 5: C Rate based off of Design Capacity /5 or a C/5 rate in mA.
AtRate (mA): Use whatever current is in AtRate( )
User_Rate-mA: Use the value in User_Rate-mA. This mode provides a completely user-configurable method.
If Load Mode = 1 (Constant Power) then the following options shown in Table 5-2 are available
