This is my html code which is basically a form.

<form [formGroup]="calculatedForm" fxLayout="column" fxLayoutGap="15px" fxLayoutAlign="start space-betwen">
    <label for="category">CATEGORY</label>
      <app-toggle-button-group
        [items]="categories"
        [selectedItem]="getselectedCategory()"
        (valueChange)="updateCategory($event)"
        [disableButtons]="calculatedForm.value.system">
      </app-toggle-button-group>

      <label for="input_interval">INTERVAL</label>
      <app-toggle-button-group
        [items]="inputIntervals"
        [selectedItem]="getselectedInterval()"
        (valueChange)="updateInterval($event)"
        [disableButtons]="calculatedForm.value.system">
      </app-toggle-button-group>

      <label for="aggregation">AGGREGATION</label>
      <app-toggle-button-group
        [items]="aggregations"
        [selectedItem]="getselectedAggregation()"
        (valueChange)="updateAggregation($event)"
        [disableButtons]="calculatedForm.value.system">
      </app-toggle-button-group>

      <app-kpi-unit 
        [selectedUnitID]="selectedUnitId()" 
        (changedUnitID)= "selectUnit($event)"
        [disableSelect]="calculatedForm.value.system">
      </app-kpi-unit>

    </form>

this is my form property in controller

  calculatedForm = this.formBuilder.group({
    id: new FormControl(''),
    identifier: new FormControl(''),
    category: new FormControl('', [Validators.required]),
    aggregation: new FormControl(null, [Validators.required]),
    input_interval: new FormControl('', [Validators.required]),
    operator: new FormControl('', [Validators.required]),
    unit_id: new FormControl(null),
    org_unit: new FormControl('', [Validators.required]),
    system: new FormControl(false),
    deleted: new FormControl(false),
    assignedKpiId: new FormControl(null)
  });

As you can see in html code I am using a method from event emitted by components to update my form controls

updateCategory(category: buttonGroupType) {
    this.calculatedForm.controls['category'].patchValue(category.name);
  }

but my requirement is to bind using formcontrolName instead of using the methods. is it possible to avoid the update methods

why aren't you using formControl?

this can bind your Html to form controls <input [formControl]="category"></input>
