This device supports charge control
features, such as:
- Reports charging voltage and
charging current based on the active temperature range—JEITA temperature ranges
T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, and T6
- Provides more complex charging
profiles, including sub-ranges within a standard temperature range
- Reports the appropriate charging
current required for constant current charging, and the appropriate charging
voltage needed for constant voltage charging to a smart charger, using the bus
communication interface
- Selects the chemical
state-of-charge of each battery cell using the Impedance Track method
- Provides pre-charging/zero-volt charging
- Employs charge inhibit and charge suspend if
battery pack temperature is out of programmed range
- Activates
charge and discharge alarms to
report
charging faults and
to
indicate
charge
status
