This feature, if enabled by setting either [Cycle_Based_Degrade] or [SOH_Based_Degrade] in the charging configuration register, reduces the ChargingVoltage() and/or ChargingCurrent() levels based on cycle count or SOH. This helps to reduce the ChargingVoltage() and/or ChargingCurrent() as the battery pack ages in order to increase the longevity of the battery pack. These degradations are at the cell level. Additionally, these degradations can be selected to trigger off either specific cycle counts or specific SOH values.
