SLUUCO5A december 2022 – august 2023 BQ34Z100-R2
For proper BQ34Z100-R2 operation, the battery per cell charging voltage must be specified by the user in Cell Charge Voltage Tx- Tx+1in data flash. The default value for this variable is Cell Charge Voltage T2-T3 = 4200 mV. This parameter should be set to the recommended charging voltage for the entire battery stack divided by the number of series cells.
The device detects valid charge termination in one of three ways:
Current Taper method can be used to support Charge Termination Detection for applications based on Li-Ion, LiFePO4, PbA chemistries.
In addition to the ΔT/Δt timer, a holdoff timer starts when the battery is charged at more than Holdoff Current (default is 240 mA), and the temperature is above Holdoff Temp. Until this timer expires, ΔT/Δt detection is suspended. If Current() drops below Holdoff Current or Temperature() below Holdoff Temp, the holdoff timer resets and restarts only when the current and temperature conditions are met again.
Delta Temperature(ΔT/Δt) method can be used to support Charge Termination Detection for applications based on NiMH or NiCd chemistries.
Negative Delta Voltage(-ΔV) method can be used to support Charge Termination Detection for application based on NiMH or NiCd chemistries.
When either condition occurs, the Flags()[CHG] bit is cleared. Also, if the [RMFCC] bit of Pack Configuration is set, and RemainingCapacity() is set equal to FullChargeCapacity().
