charger is not in shutdown. V
to GND with an operating voltage range of GND to BAT.
TIMER (Pin 10): Charge Timer Input. A resistor connected
between TIMER and GND programs charge cycle timing
limits. Refer to the Applications Information section for
complete details. Operating voltage range is GND to 1V.
SENSE (Pin 11): Charge Current Sense Input. An external
resistor between this input and BAT is used to program
charge current. Refer to the Applications Information
section for complete details on programming charge
current. Operating voltage ranges from (BAT – 50mV) to
