7.7 Recharge threshold
When, from an end-of-charge condition, the battery voltage goes lower than the recharging
threshold (V
RCH
), the device goes back in charging state. The value of the recharge
threshold is V
OPRG
150 mV.
7.8 Maximum charging time
To avoid the charging of a dead battery for a long time, the L6924D has the possibility to set
a maximum charging time starting from the beginning of the fast-charge phase. This timer
can be set with a capacitor, connected between the T
PRG
pin and GND. The C
TPRG
is the
external capacitor (in nF) and is given by the following equation:
Equation 11
Note: The maximum recommended C
TPRG
value must be less than 50 nF.
