  • Clark,

    Please check the register reading for any possible fault condition and valid charging conditions.
    - Is the timer expired? You c.an try to set the timer longer REG05[2:1]
    - Make sure the input voltage source, register setting and /CE pin valid for charging.
  • Can I adjust the timer by peripheral

  • Hey Clark,

    This is a standalone charger and the charge timer is not resistor programmable.

    What is your input voltage power capability? Voltage and current rating?

    If you bypass the load switch, do you see the same behavior from the charger? I would also recommend getting our BQ25606EVM in order to test and cross compare your battery between our EVM board and our custom board, and see whether or not you see the same behavior.
