SLUUDA0A April 2026 – July 2026 BQ27Z855
Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) is an authentication scheme that leverages the mathematical properties of elliptic curves to generate an asymmetrical private and public key pair. Texas Instruments' BQ27Z855 battery fuel gauge supports ECDSA P-256 gauge authentication for anti-counterfeit protection of battery packs.
Gauge Authentication (ECDSA P-256)
The authentication method implements ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm) with the P-256 curve (also known as secp256r1 or prime256v1), utilizing SHA-256 hashing. This authentication scheme provides robust anti-counterfeit protection for battery packs.
