Description: This register sets the current threshold at which the device enables the FET driver to protect the body diode.
To minimize power dissipation in the FET body diode, the FET is turned on when reverse current is detected and the other FET is on.
When measured discharge current is greater in magnitude than Settings:Protection:Body Diode Threshold and the DSG FET is on, the CHG FET is turned on.
When measured charge current is greater than Settings:Protection:Body Diode Threshold and the CHG FET is on, the DSG FET is turned on.
When in parallel FET mode (Settings:FET:FET Options[SFET] = 0), body diode protection is disabled and a FET is not turned on in response to reverse current.
