When current measures to a value less than the value programmed in Deadband, Current() will report 0. This has no effect on the coulomb counting for the gas gauging functionality. The value of Deadband should be selected based on the characterization of the battery electronics design combined with the environment in which the battery will be used. If the PCB senses noise causing a real no-current condition to report a non-zero value, then Deadband could be adjusted accordingly.
