8.4.6 Automatic Internal Soft-Start Charger Current

Every time the charge is enabled, the charger automatically applies soft-start on charge current to avoid any overshoot or stress on the output capacitors or the power converter. The charge current starts at 128mA, and the step size is 64mA in CCM mode for a 10mΩ current sensing resistor. Each step lasts around 240µs in CCM mode, till it reaches the programmed charge current limit. No external components are needed for this function. During DCM mode, the soft start up current step size is larger and each step lasts for longer time period due to the intrinsic slow response of DCM mode.
