SLUS987C January 2011 – December 2019 BQ33100
PRODUCTION DATA.
The BQ33100 uses Equation 4 to determine the relative health of the capacitor:
The BQ33100 will determine a new ChargingVoltage() at end of the learning cycle based on the newly learned Capacitance. The following warnings will be set based on the changes in ChargingVoltage() and the capacitor's ability to provide the minimum power needs.
ChargingVoltage() = V Chg Nominal, then SafetyStatus[HLOW], [HWARN] and [HFAIL] are cleared.
If ChargingVoltage() is set to V Chg A or V Chg B, then SafetyStatus[HLOW] is set.
If ChargingVoltage() is set to V Chg Max then SafetyStatus[HWARN] is set.
If ChargingVoltage() is set to V Chg Max and the BQ33100 determines that the newly learned Capacitance cannot provide the minimum power requirements then SafetyStatus[HFAIL] is set.
The minimum power requirements is determined by the Min Power, Required Time and Min Voltage data flash values.
If the corresponding [HLOW], [HWARN] or [HFAIL] bits are set in FAULT when the SafetyStatus[HLOW] or [HWARN] bit is set then the FAULT pin is set.
