Battery boost circuit

(02-04-2016, 06:55 AM)adk_mechetech Wrote: So I browsed through the datasheet for the chip and it looks like everything is configured by data registers.

Will there be a software option to configure these specific to the battery we want to use? (ie. 1A+ charge current for high capacity batteries)

Obviously the chip supports up to 2.8A charging, but thermal management becomes an issue.  What is the functional limit due to lack of active cooling?

Current there is no software option to do so due to reliability concern. Just like you have mentioned, if somebody just crank up the charging current without knowing the consequence, it can become a disaster.
