JAJSEC4E September 2012 – January 2018 BQ24157
PRODUCTION DATA.
bq24157 also has a unique battery detection scheme during the start up of the charger. At VBUS power up, bq24157 starts a 262-ms timer when exiting from short circuit mode to PWM charge mode. If the battery voltage is charged above the recharge threshold (VOREG-VRCH) when the 262-ms timer expired, bq2157 will not consider the battery present; then stop charging, and go to high impedance mode immediately. However, if the battery voltage is still below the recharge threshold when the 262-ms timer expires, the charging process will continue as normal battery charging process.
