URC 2
^SBC: Overvoltage warning
This URC is an alarm indicator displayed when the supply voltage approaches its maximum level. The URC
appears only once.
URC 3
^SBC: Overvoltage shutdown
This URC will be reported when the voltage exceeds the maximum level specified in the Hardware Interface
. It appears only once before the module starts to perform an orderly shutdown.
In applications powered from Lithium batteries the incorporated protection circuit typically prevents over-
charging, thus eliminating the risk of overvoltage conditions. Yet, in case of charging errors, for example
caused by a bad battery or due to the absence of a battery protection circuit, the module's overvoltage shut-
down function will take effect to avoid overcharging.
Parameter Description
Connection status of battery pack
0
No charging adapter is connected
1
Charging adapter is connected
2
Charging adapter is connected, charging in progress
3
Charging adapter is connected, charging has finished
4
Charging error, charging is interrupted
5
False charging temperature, charging is interrupted while temperature is
beyond allowed range
Battery capacity
0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 percent of remaining capacity (6 steps).
0 indicates that either the battery is exhausted or the capacity value is not available.
While charging is in progress (charging adapter connected) the battery capacity is not available. Consequently,
parameter
=0. To query the battery capacity disconnect the charger.
Current consumption of the host application as specified with parameter
Enter the current consumption of your host application in mA (0...5000). This information enables TC63 to cor-
rectly determine the end of charging and terminate charging automatically when the battery is fully charged.
is inaccurate, and the application draws a current higher than the final charge current,
either charging will not be terminated or the battery fails to reach its maximum voltage. Therefore, the termina-
tion condition is defined as: final charge current (50mA) plus current consumption of the external application. If
used, the current flowing over the VEXT pin of the application interface (typically 2.9V) must be added, too.
The specified value will also be displayed as parameter
of the
read command.
When the TC63 is powered down or reset, the value of
is restored to its default. This affects the
charging control and disables the presentation of Unsolicited Result Codes. Therefore, the parameter should be
set every time when needed after rebooting the TC63.
