FullSOCThr Register (13h)
The FullSOCThr register gates detection of end-of-
charge. SOC

must be larger than the FullSOCThr
value before ICHGTerm is compared to the Average
Current register value. The recommended FullSOCThr
register setting for most applications is 95%. See the
ICHGTerm register description for details. The FullSOCThr
register is 70% at power-up.
register format.
End-of-Charge Detection
The device detects the end of a charge cycle when
the application current falls into the band set by the
ICHGTerm register value. By monitoring both the current
and average current registers, the device can reject false
end-of-charge events such as application load spikes
or early charge-source removal. See the End-of-Charge
Detection graph in the
