3.3 TS Pin Setting

LiFePO4 batteries have a better chemistry stability than Li-ion batteries. This allows them less prone to thermal runaway. LiFePO4 batteries generally perform well in higher ambient temperature. However, charging the battery with JEITA compliance rules provides additional layer of security. Although, there are no specific JEITA guidelines for LiFePO4 in particular, a good practice is to use thresholds for Li-ion batteries if the user wants to use JEITA. Depending on whether the user wants to use JEITA or NTC monitoring, there can be three scenarios.
