Register Values When Polling
When the Polling button is pressed, the PWR_CTL register is forced to the value of 0x1F. This turns on all
measurement systems as well as the current comparator. This is shown in the Control Register Display.
Note that other bits are automatically updated (written) during polling but are not displayed (read). The
update rate of the bits during polling is in the 10s of milliseconds and does not make sense to display.

Control Registers Introduction
The Control Registers of the bq76925 are used to configure and control the device. A summary of the
read/write Control Registers follows. This user's guide, however, does not provide the necessary details
on the operation and settings of these registers that are given in the bq76925 data sheet . For those
details, see SLUSAM9.
Mousing over a bit in the Control Register section of the software displays a brief description of the bit.
