BQ25308: Charging dead battery

Part Number: BQ25308

Tool/software:

Dear TI experts,

I found that BQ25308 has a function of Dead Battery Charge Inhibit.

And datasheet says that this function makes charge inhibited if Vbat < Vbat_short.

Then Is there any way to move the status from "Charge Inhibit" to "Pre-charge"?

In my thinking, anyway BQ25308 will give the voltage to the dead battery to go to "Pre-charge" from "Charge Inhibit" once BQ25308 is powered and dead battery is attached in the output, even it is not called "Charging".

My last question is, If dead battery is made in any situation, Can't I make it alive? Just throw it away?

Please check this issue. Thanks.

Best regards,

Chase
