Hello once again...
I have a problem with making a battery level monitoring.
I am building a RF low power module that is powered by a Lithium-thionyl Chloride battery https://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1445890.pdf
The problem is that the discharge curve is to abrupt.
The system has the following power cycles:
Trun = 6ms; Irun = 36mA
Tidle = 18mA; Iidle = 18mA
Tsleep = 2000ms; Idle = 1uA
So the average current is of aprox = 400uA
I am using the CC1110 SoC that has a internal VCC monitor so I can measure the voltage of the power source.
The problem is as the discharge curve is abrupt it goes from 3.6 to 0 very fast.
Is there a way to monitor this battery using the VCC monitor? Or any other method?
