PRODUCTION DATA
The charger has two main control loops that control charging when VBAT > VLOWV: the Constant Current (CC) and Constant Voltage (CV) loops. When the CC loop is dominant, typically when VBAT < VBATREG – VRCH, the battery is charged at the maximum charge current level ICHG, unless there is a TS fault condition, VINDPM is active, thermal regulation or DPPM is active. (See respective sections for details on these modes of operation). Once the battery voltage approaches the VBATREG level, the CV loops becomes more dominant and the charging current starts tapering off as shown in Typical Charging Profile of a Battery. Once the charging current reaches the termination current (ITERM) the charge is done, then the STAT1 and STAT2 pins change to indicate a charge complete .
