BQ25882: About Battery insertion / removal judgment

Part Number: BQ25882

Hi,

Can the BQ25882 determine whether the battery is inserted or removed?
Please let me know if there is a way to determine ”Battery insertion / removal”.

And, When I removed the battery with the following settings, it repeated CV and Trickle.
・EN_BAT_DISCHG = Enable
・TOPOFF_TIMER[1:0] = Disable
Is this judgment made by "VBAT <VBAT_SHORT"?
I want to know the details of the criteria and rules for switching between Trickle and CV.

Best regards,
Yusuke

  • Yusuke-san,

    The BQ25882 uses a discharge current to detect the presence of a battery.

    The repeated trickle and CV is the VBAT capacitor charging and discharging. The VBAT_SHORT threshold determines when to exit trickle and begin precharge.

    Thanks,

  • Hi Ricardo-san,

    Thank you for your response.
    I understand your explanation.
    Could you tell me additionally.

  • Yusuke-san,

    The discharge is applied to determine which charge state to begin. When the discharge is applied the VBAT voltage is sensed and the appropriate charging state will begin.

    VBAT > VBAT_LOWV : Fast Charge begins

    VBAT_LOWV > VBAT > VSHORT : Precharge begins

    VSHORT > VBAT: Trickle begins

    Thanks,

    Ricardo
