BPSCTR – Battery Protection Short-current Timing Register
• Bit 7 – Res: Reserved Bits
This bit is reserved and will always read as zero.
• Bit 6:0 – SCPT6:0: Short-current Protection Timing
These bits control the delay of the Short-circuit Protection. The Short-circuit Timing can be set
with a step size of 62.5 µs as shown in
Table 20-2 on page 110
.
Notes:
1. The actual value depends on the actual frequency of the
”Ultra Low Power RC Oscillator” on
”Electrical Characteristics” on page 142
2. Initial value: SCPT[0x10](1ms).
3. An additional delay up to T
d
can be expected after enabling the Discharge FET due to initial-
ization of the protection circuit. With nomial ULP frequency this delay is maximum 55 µs.
Note:
Due to synchronization of parameters between clock domains, a guard time of 3 ULP oscillator
cycles + 3 CPU clock cycles is required between each time the BPSCTR register is written. Any
writing to the BPSCTR register during this period will be ignored.
20.8.4
BPOCTR – Battery Protection Over-current Timing Register
• Bit 7:6 – Res: Reserved Bits
These bits are reserved and will always read as zero.
• Bit 5:0 – OCPT5:0: Over-current Protection Timing
These bits control the delay of the Over-circuit Protection. The Over-current Timing can be set
with a step size of 0.5 ms as shown in
Table 20-3 on page 111
.
