Evaluation and Results

 Forward to Reverse Mode Transition Recovery
When ACUV is pulled low, the BQ25822 transitions into reverse supplement mode within 150µs

            Current Control
Adjusting PWM signal on ILIM_HIZ pin, allows the BQ25822 to step up or down the charging current in forward mode.
