Original question:
Hi all, I have a design where the external power (Qi receiver) may be removed at any time, and additionally due to the occasional relatively high power consumption of the device (custom smartspeaker with significant LED lighting) all the power from the Qi receiver and more is consumed, i.e. current is sourced from the battery for these peaks.
The firmware currently asserts CE/ at startup and holds it low forever.
Question: is the safey timer reset in the conditions of external power removed / no current into battery even if I don't toggle CE/ to specifically initiate a new charging cycle?
The BQ25601 correctly reports not charging when the external power is removed. I assume this means a new cycle begins and the charge timer is reset when it is restored. But I have no way to know. (I think...?)
Thank you!
