Forum Post: RE: "Non-host control" SMBus Charger System (w/ bq20z65-R1)

Hi John,

Setting the [Bcast] bit in operation  cfg B register in the data flash enables broadcast. The bq20z65 uses slave address 0x16 on SMB for communication.

Refer to section 2.5.1, 2.11.2 , 2.11.3 and 2.11.4 of the technical reference manual of the bq20z65 (this can be found on TI's website) for additional info as regards packet error checking and broadcasting.

thanks

Onyx
