ADVANCE INFORMATION
When the battery voltage rises to or above the programmed ZVCHG Exit Threshold value, the device transitions to Linear mode with the CHG FET now in the CHG = LIN state to operate in Precharge mode. In Precharge mode, the device charges the battery via the Constant Current (CC) loop at the charge current regulation level ICHG. The device regulates ICHG according to the programmed Pre-Charging:Current value in device data flash. Once the battery reaches the programmed Charging Voltage Low value, the device will then operate in Fast Charge mode and charge the battery according to the programmed ICHG value.
If enabled, the Precharge Timeout Protection (PTO) safety timer counts the time the device spends in Precharge mode and can disable charging if the accumulated time exceeds the PTO:Delay threshold.
