AM10415v 1
Two outputs can be used to detect the status of charge. The functionality of these two pins
can be customized in NVM as outlined in Appendix E & Appendix F. This is to allow the final
customer to have different kinds of information depending on whether the output is ON, OFF,
or flickering. The flickering frequency is programmable both in frequency and duty cycle (see
Appendix E & Appendix F).
The device functionality is not guaranteed if the parameters are modified in NVM during the
charging cycle.
5.1
Operation mode
The STBC21 can work in standalone or driven by a microcontroller. If it works in standalone,
all device parameters are those stored in NVM. Otherwise, if it works driven by a
microcontroller, it is the microcontroller itself to program through I²C (SCL and SDA pins) the
device parameters.
