BQ40Z50-R2: BQ40Z50-R3 , Short circuit in discharge , Permanent Fail

Part Number: BQ40Z50-R2

Hi

I am using BQ40Z50-R3. I am trying to use short circuit protection for my battery. If short circuit is detected  I wanted to try to recover it first  but if it fails to recover , set Permanent Fail  flag ASCD and shout down or stop trying to recover it. 

my configuration is:

[ASCDL] bit in the Enabled PF B register is set 

Enabled PF B = 0x80

threshold1 = 0x77

threshold2 = 0xE7

recovery time= 5 sec

latch limit =7

reset time =15 sec

with this setting I could not get my PF flag set. the battery keeps trying to recover indefinitely.

best regards Sami
