nPM1300-CAAA-R Thermal Information
A global thermal shutdown is triggered when the die temperature exceeds the operating temperature range, see TSD. All device functions are disabled in thermal shutdown. The device functions are re-enabled when the temperature is sufficiently reduced according to a hysteresis TSDHYST. The die temperature limit is only monitored when charging is enabled or when a BUCK is enabled and is in PWM mode.
A secondary mechanism disables the charger when the die reaches the host software programmable temperature of DIETEMPSTOP on page 43 . Once this temperature is reached, charging stops but all other functionality remains active. Charging restarts when the die temperature reaches the host software programmable temperature of DIETEMPRESUME on page 44.
