I have a bit of an unusual use case where the nPM1300 is quite ideal but need to use an external charger for the battery instead of the internal charger. The nPM1300 fuel gauge works great for the application and I would like to avoid using a third component for that. Does the fuel gauge depend on the charger being active or can it be used independently?
The battery model would still be created with the nPM1300 EVK but the final application would use an external charger. The nPM1300 would be subjected to the charge voltage of the external charger but would not exceed the rating of the nPM1300 battery input.
