Battery Shorted (Battery Undervoltage) Protection

The bq24751A has a BAT SHORT comparator monitoring the output battery voltage (BAT). If the voltage falls below 2.9 V per cell (5.8 V for 2 cells, 8.7 V for 3 cells, 11.6 V for 4 cells), a battery-short status is detected. Below the BAT_SHORT threshold, the charger reduces the charge current to 1/8th of the programmed charging current (0.1×SRSET/VDAC)/8 = C/8 down to zero volts on BAT pin.. This lower current is used as a pre-charge current for over-discharged battery packs. Above the BAT_SHORT threshold (plus hysteresis, the charge current resumes at the programmed value (0.1×SRSET/VDAC).

The BAT_SHORT comparator also serves as a depleted-battery alarm during a LEARN cycle. If the selector is in a LEARN cycle, and the battery voltage falls bellow the BAT_SHORT threshold, the selector disconnects the battery from the system and connects the adapter to the system in order to protect the battery pack. If battery voltage increases, and LEARN is still logic high, then the selector disconnects the adapter from the system and reconnects the battery to the system.
