Current Sense Amplifier
BQ241xx family offers a current sense amplifier feature that translates the charge current into a DC voltage.
Figure 15 is a block diagram of this feature.

The voltage on the ISET2 pin can be used to calculate the charge current. Equation 12 shows the relationship
between the ISET2 voltage and the charge current:

This feature can be used to monitor the charge current (Figure 16) during the current regulation phase
(Fastcharge only) and the voltage regulation phase. The schematic for the application circuit for this waveform is
shown in Figure 18
