I am developing a board using BQ29733 battery protection IC in standard configuration (as in datasheet, with the only difference that I added a 5Mohm resistor between GS of each MOSFET).
When connecting battery for the first time, I would like to have the discharging circuit disabled until charger is connected to its terminals.
From our tests on a few boards, it seems like this behaviour is always obtained: however, from the datasheet it seems like a possibility since "the discharging circuit might not be enabled" (see below image).
Since we would like to rely on this feature, is this behaviour confirmed? What does this behaviour depend on?
Does the standard configuration need any modification in order to ALWAYS obtain such behaviour?
Thank you very much for the support.
Best regards,
Tomoki
