2.7.2- Equalize Mode after End of Charge Mode

Figure 2. Charge profile for Equalize Mode

Figure 2 defines the charge profile for the Equalize Mode. After going through bulk charge and Constant Voltage modes, the charger will reduce its output cur- rent to Top-Off Current (Ito) until one of the two possible outcomes occurs:

(1)Battery voltage rises to Equalize Voltage (Vequ) or

(2)Equalize Time-Out (Tto) is reached.

Once one of these two possibilities occur, charging will stop and the 1620 will set itself to Off Mode; the charger remains in standby until restart voltage (Vrst) is reached.
