Hi all,
Now I am using BQ25306EVM for charging LiFePO4 battery.
the problem is that even I change charging current, charging time is almost same.
the condition is as below;
case1:
charging voltage : 3.6V (changed R5 to 455K)
charging current : 2A (JP10 jumper installed, JP9 is not installed)
overall charging time : about 18 min (from completely discharged to end charging)
CC charging time : about 2 min
CV charging time : about 16 min
case2:
charging voltage : 3.6V (same as case1)
charging current : 3.3A (changed R11 to 12K, under same jumper setting as case1)
overall charging time : about 16 min (from completely discharged to end charging)
CC charging time : about 17 second
CV charging time : about 16min
and here is the spec. of battery;
nominal voltage : 3.2V
nominal capacity : 360mAh
charging voltage : 3.6V
output capacity : 10C
as shown above, CC charging time is much different, but CV charging time is almost same.
but overall charging time is important to me, i thought that there is much difference between 2A charging and 3.3A charging.
anyway I want to make charging time much more shortly, about less than 5 minutes.
is there any settings that I should change?
Please check this issue. Thanks.
Best regards,
Chase
