PRODUCTION DATA.
The BQ2461x charges the battery in three phases: preconditioning, constant current, and constant voltage.
Charge is terminated when the current reaches a minimum user-selectable level. A programmable charge timer provides a safety backup. The BQ2461x automatically restarts the charge cycle if the battery voltage falls below an internal threshold, and enters a low quiescent current sleep mode when the input voltage falls below the battery voltage.
