BQ40Z60: failure to control charge current with low value

Part Number: BQ40Z60

Hi TI-team and TI-users,

I just noticed that when setting the current to low value (<= 300 mA, which is not that low), the charge completely fails to deliver said current. We can observe big overshoot for a bit and then the security gets triggered and cut the charge.

For higher current (i.e 350mA), this problem doesn't occur, I get a current significantly lower than expected, as described in other posts.

So, how can I get lower currents? This particularly critical especially because the pre-charge isn't working.

I attach the configuration I used: "testLowCurrent.gg.csv" (I only put the last one I used with 350mA, only "Rec Temp Charging/Current Med" changes for the different tests) and several logs with different values set for the charging current: "testLowCurrentXXXmA.log"

And here some plot:
