With VBATREG = 4.3V. If we plug our device into an external power source (USB) with the battery voltage at ~4.2V, the BQ24250 indicates "Charge done" when register #1 is read, and charging cycle does not begin.
Is this because the battery voltage is above VBATREG - VRCH? (70 min-160mV max) This does not happen with a depleted battery.
If that is the case, is there a way for us to override this and initiate the charge cycle so that the battery charges up to VBATREG (4.3V)? We have observed that if we toggle B1 of register #2 high followed by low (charging disabled followed by charging enabled), that the charge cycle will begin. Is this behavior expected?
