occurs, it may be desirable to have application software
enforce an emergency reduction of power in the portable
product. It is possible to enable the battery conditioner
circuit at this temperature to reduce stress caused by
simultaneous high temperature and high voltage via the
I
2
C port. See the Overtemperature Battery Conditioner
section.
The thermistor
detection circuit samples the thermistor’s
value continuously
whenever charging is enabled and
periodically when it is not. When the charger is not en-
abled, the thermistor is sampled for 150µs approximately
every 150ms. The thermistor data available to the I
2
C port
is updated at the end of each sample period.
