BQ27741EVM: Power management forum

Part Number: BQ27741EVM

I am observing a confusing issue with the eval board.  See attached screen shots showing charge and discharge.  This is my second eval board. 

 

When I am discharging both FETS(DSG and CHG) are on.  When I an charging only the CHG fet is on.  I do not understand why the DSG FET is not also turned on when I am charging.  If it is not turned on, then the charge current has to go through the DSG FET body diode.

Any ideas or help from any experts would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance, Mike
