PRODUCTION DATA
As the device CV loop becomes more dominate than the CC loop in fast charge operation, the charge current will taper and approach the ITERM threshold. The device terminates at 10 % of ICHG.
Once the ITERM threshold is met during the CV phase, the device automatically terminates charge current by disabling the BATFET (disconnects the battery from SYS) to enter high impedeance mode. If there is a regulation loop such as VINDPM, DPPM, or a thermal regulation loop that affects the charge current while the CV loop is tapering the charge current, termination will not occur. Charge current will continue to taper due to the active current affecting regulation loops and CV but the device will not terminate the charge current.
Termination only occurs when the CV loop is operating without any other regulation loops in effect that could reduce the charge current further. Post termination, the battery FET is disabled and the device monitors the BAT pin voltage. If the BAT pin voltage has dropped lower than the battery regulation voltage (VBATREG) by the recharge threshold (VRCH), a new charge cycle is started and safety timers are reset.
During charging or even when charge done, a higher SYS load will be supported through the supplement operation.
