Good afternoon,
I searched on the datasheet but I didn't find anything, do you have any document on how to calculate the Resistor value for RPCHG ?
Best regards

Hello John,
We do not have a document that explains how this is calculated. It would depend on the charger and charging current. You generally would choose this to limit the current to a level that is allowable/acceptable for the battery when it is at low voltages.
Some of our chargers implement a pre-charging function that limits their current automatically if it detects the battery is at too low of a voltage. So this FET would not be required if the charger supports pre-charging.
