charge and the safety timer, and waits until the battery temperature is within the V

/10. The controller suspends charge by turning off the PWM charge FETs. Figure 18 and Figure 19
summarize the operation.

Figure 19. Typical Charge Current vs Temperature Profile
Assuming a 103AT NTC thermistor on the battery pack as shown in the Typical System Schematic, the value
RT1 and RT2 can be determined by using Equation 7 and Equation 8:
