I2C fuel-gauge breakout based on the MAX17048. Reports LiPoly/LiIon cell voltage and percentage state-of-charge using ModelGauge estimation without an external sense resistor.
Board power input, use the same voltage as the microcontroller logic level.
Output from the battery input voltage.
Common ground for power and logic.
I2C clock line.
I2C data line. Adafruit Learn labels the board pin SDI and says it connects to microcontroller SDA.
Interrupt output, can pull low when configured voltage or percentage thresholds are crossed.
Quick-start hardware input for resetting the MAX17048.
Two JST-SH 4-pin I2C connectors for STEMMA QT/Qwiic cabling and chaining.
Two equivalent JST-PH battery ports. Connect battery to either one and load/charger to the other; observe polarity.
