3.9 Fast Charge Timeout Protection
The device can measure the charge time and stop charging if it exceeds the adjustable period.
Status Condition Action
Enable Current() > CTO:Charge Threshold
Start CTO timer
SafetyAlert()[CTOS] = 0
Suspend or Recovery Current() < CTO:Suspend Threshold
Stop CTO timer
SafetyAlert()[CTOS] = 1
Trip CTO time > CTO:Delay
Stop CTO timer
SafetyStatus()[CTO] = 1
BatteryStatus()[TCA] = 1
Charging is not allowed.
Reset
SafetyStatus()[CTO] = 1 AND
(Discharge by an amount of CTO:Reset)
Stop and reset CTO timer
SafetyAlert()[CTOS] = 0
SafetyStatus()[CTO] = 0
BatteryStatus()[TCA] = 0
Charging is allowed.

3.10 Overcharge Protection
The device can prevent continuing charging if the pack is charged in excess over FullChargeCapacity().
While RemainingCapacity() never reports a value higher than FullChargeCapacity() in the device registers,
it is tracked to higher values internally to protect against overcharging.
Status Condition Action
Normal RemainingCapacity() < FullChargeCapacity() SafetyAlert()[OC] = 0
Alert RemainingCapacity() ≥ FullChargeCapacity() SafetyAlert()[OC] = 1
Trip
RemainingCapacity() ≥ FullChargeCapacity() +
OC:Threshold
SafetyAlert()[OC] = 0
SafetyStatus()[OC] = 1
BatteryStatus()[TCA] = 1, [OCA] = 1 if the device is in
CHARGE state (that is, BatteryStatus[DSG] = 0).
OperationStatus()[XCHG] = 1
Charging is not allowed.
Recovery
SafetyStatus()[OC] = 1 AND
continuous discharge of Recovery OR
RemainingStateOfCharge() < OC:RSOC
Recovery
SafetyStatus()[OC] = 0
BatteryStatus()[TCA] = 0, [OCA] = 0
OperationStatus()[XCHG] = 0
Charging is allowed.
