BQ2973: Protection delay

Part Number: BQ2973

Hi,

I am currently designing a circuit with the BQ29732, an I have a question regarding the delays for the different protection (Overvoltage, overcurrent, etc...).

In the datasheet, it is writtent that FETs are turned off only if the fault lasts longer than the delays defined for the given fault, but here is my question :

If a fault is triggered, and then resume before the end of the delay, is the fault timer cleared, or is the fact that the fault is still triggered exactly at the end of the timer, regardless of what happened between the start and the end of the timer, the only thing that matters ?

Best regards,

Guillaume
