The charging process for LIPO Battery divided into 4 phases:
• Qualification and trickle charging
• Fast charge 1 - constant current
• Final charge - constant voltage or pulsed charging
• Maintenance charge
The qualification process down by special internal chip, this chip is battery charger voltage regulator.
moreover all these operations should start only if battery temperature is inside a charging range,
usually 5°C - 45°C. The JAVA BOX measures the temperature of its internal component, in order to
satisfy this last requirement, it's not exactly the same as the battery temperature but in common
application the two temperature should not differ too much and the charging temperature range should
be guaranteed.
